For the PolyLAN we need students...

To keep you entertained througout these times, we re-structured or mostly offline board- and video-gaming events to work online. We came up with the following ideas:

• Finding people to play video games with
• A big minecraft server
• Virtual Board Gaming (as a replacement for the Board Game Days)

For that, we created a new Discord server. It should serve as a platform to find gaming buddies, ask questions or make recommendations if you have more ideas how we could keep you entertained. Just join the server and find like-minded people to...

It is only two weeks till we will enter the vault and start a glorious weekend of gaming at this year’s PolyLAN! We can not wait to welcome you all, but we need some time prepare everything for you. That is why we will close the ticketing process on Sunday, the 14th of April at 23:59! That means you will not be able to buy your ticket after that date!
See you at the LAN!
