I hadn't seen this posted yet, so I thought I'd remedy that. Here's the text from the last mailing with all the event details.

Greetings,

What are your plans on April 8th? If you are not saying attending Intel LANFest NETWAR 21.0 then you have serious issues my friend. ILNW 21 as I like to say for short, is one of this springs most anticipated LAN parties. We have an amazing schedule and tournament lineup, our sponsors have stepped up and have donated an insane amount of prizes to give away to the attendees through door raffle and tournament prizes. As well our attendee registrations are coming in at a very fast pace. As you may have seen in the last email, 100% of the door entry fee you pay goes straight to charity, come to ILNW have some fun, win some prizes, and feel good that your money is helping someone in need.

Calling All Gamers
We the admins at ILNW try and cater to the vast assortment of PC gamers out there. If you are hesitant to attend, come try us for one event or just stop in for a bit and have a look around. I can guarantee you will be back for our next events, I have seen this happen so many times I lost count. If you like to play in very well organized tournaments and be challenged, you will find that at our events. If you just like to play in the tournaments because of the structured gaming, but know you are not skilled enough and just want to have fun, you will find that at our events. If you just want to lounge back the whole event and enjoy all the games you enjoy playing with others, you will find that at our events. From First Person Shooters (Counter-Strike, Call of Duty, Left 4 Dead, Team Fortress) to Real-Time Strategy (Starcraft 2, League of Legends, Heroes of Newerth, Minecraft :) ) to Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Games (World of Warcraft, etc.) you will find it at our events. So why not attend it?

Event Details
Intel LANFest NETWAR 21.0 will take place April 8-9, 2011 starting at 7pm that Friday evening, the event will run straight for 26 hours till 9pm Saturday night.
Location: The Digz Sports Arena in Omaha, Nebraska.

Registration Details
Please get yourself and everyone you know registered and pre-paid for the event as soon as possible, the quicker we sell our seats the more prizes we will have to offer.

April 6 is the last day you can pay online and get the discount.

Closed Rows I and J

Yeah, I'm really looking forward to this one. It's the first since they grabbed the Intel sponsorship, and they've got a ton of gear to give away.
