LAN Party 02 with Liquid Intelligent Technologies - Mini Review
The event was held at BongoHive and was sponsored by Liquid Intelligent Technologies. Our gamers got a chance to experience the incredible speeds offered on Liquid internet! These meets between fellow nerds allow us to share our passion for video games and partially sated our desire for companionship, camaraderie, and community. We also welcomed new otaku’s into the fold and hopefully showed them that we are an open and inclusive community where there is room for anyone to be themselves.

How was Liquid's internet?
As we have come to expect updates didn’t take hours, it didn’t take minutes, it took SECONDS! Latency to South African gaming servers was a solid 20-25ms with very rare fluctuations into the 30ms. It is always a dream to play on their network and it felt like we were playing local lan rather than on a server 1800km away. Some of our gamers tried the connection to EU for Apex Legends and were also impressed by the stable ping which allowed them to feel competitive.

What is a LAN Party?
A LAN Party is similar to a normal party except that it involves hauling your gaming laptop or desktop to space where friends and nerds have gathered to connect their computers together so they can play games to their hearts’ content! LAN Parties were the true birthplace of eSports and often result in our gamers becoming quite competitive as they try to best each other in a selection of their favourite multiplayer games. Although we are competitive, our LAN Parties are casual by design and we welcome new players and often sacrifice our own game time in order to include and guide them into our world.
