Bringing your own computer is optional, but recommended; there will be PCs available to play on. If you have a favorite gaming mouse, headphones or earphones (read: no speakers!), or fun games you like to play, install them ahead of time and bring the CD just in case.
If you're not yet familiar with what a LAN party is, you basically play computer games all day or night while munching on snacks and highly caffeinated drinks to stay awake. It's a lot of fun so you should come check it out!

| What we're all about! Pirate rap? Not quite. | 2006-10-17 @ 2:57:18 AM CDT | I hate to let (what I think is) a great description go to waste; someone recently inquired what we're all about and I would just like to share that with anyone else that may be curious. :)
Here is our latest and greatest Super-Spiffy-Rad "official" clan description of what we really are ...all about:
In an excerpt from a previous news post that I think is a great description to start with, "[TRU] is a multi-game clan and does not discourage against any games that a member wishes to play." With that in mind, I love keeping up a positive atmosphere without a great deal of rules and restrictions, and when people start to get ticked-off, then we try our best to find some humor in the situation. When expanding our clan into a "new" game, I look for mature leadership that doesn't quit at the drop of a hat and stays in it for the long-haul, especially when dealing with the occasional younger gamers or a personal disagreement comes into play. When a more serious disagreement is at hand, it should be discussed between the leaders and each involved member, first one at a time, then together in a group if appropriate. I work hard to encourage an open and truthful environment; for example, when a member cheats, to have them own up to it (even if it takes time), and at the very least to not cheat when other players have not agreed to be a part of it or the server admin clearly restricts it. League play is optional and purely up to any members wishing to participate and help organize it, but in the past we usually avoided them altogether in favor of playing on public servers, in self-organized scrimmages, and free-for-alls; although, I understand MMORPGs can and do sometimes require larger group interaction which is perfectly fine as well. :)
I hope this thoroughly answers any questions you guys and gals may have; if in doubt, feel free to let us know.

P.S. Are we all about pirates? No, but that may apply to me rather well; LOL.

| Updates... :) | 2005-12-6 @ 4:22:28 PM CST | I have not had a great deal of time to spend updating the clan site lately with being a full time student, but now that the semester is coming to an end, I figured I would give everyone an update to what's been going on.
Well to start with, we do not have any game servers at the moment; and will probably not have any until more members will help support it financially and also to maintain it with any free time we have available.
If you don't know already, [TRU] is a multi-game clan and does not discourage against any games that a member wishes to play. We are looking for more active dedicated members to help support the clan and our future growth, especially in Houston, Katy, and Cypress, Texas and surrounding areas. If you are in or near this area you may be interested to know that the Cy-Fair College Technology Society will be hosting LAN Parties on a regular basis, the first of which this year was just this past Friday on December 2nd, 2005. I will post more information about this later including pictures of the event and details on future LAN Parties. | | - Rooter |
