BobLAN 2025.1 Roundup
Another great weekend draws to a close, and what a fun time it was!

As with previous writeups, this will be a collection of thoughts and quotes from the weekend...
  • Pup: Glad the CS2 server and stats behaved itself. Nice to get the golden knife ribbon. AngryDaz - let's discuss updates/issues/features (i.e. I need to read our other thread don't I ??). Would be good to incorporate these in the next week or so, so I don't forget :) I also want to get the auto-update of the server IP address working.
  • Pup: BF2042 - I enjoy this game. Nice mix of running, shooting, flying, driving, killing and dying.
  • Pup: Rocket League was quite a lot of fun. The random teams worked really well. And I'm pleased that everyone is equally shit at it.
  • Pup: Outside time - spent a good amount of time outside chatting to people, and I do enjoy it. Think I've slightly burnt my face.
  • Wij: I also have a slightly burnt face from the 20 mins I spent outside talking mainly to Daz. Outside is dangerous.
  • Mesmer: Every BobLAN brings something new. In all my years, I have never seen anything quite like the kebab down the stairs!
  • AngryDaz: Absolutely brilliant fun as ever - catching up with people and playing some fun games. Still loving BF2042 and the squad mentality. CS2 seems to be back where we want it and getting some decent maps again. REPO also made me laugh much more than it has any right to.
  • Bynar: "BobLAN 2025.1 : Flying kebabs and unexpected water cooling" Great weekend again, the classics continue to entertain (not just referring to the games :) ). Everyone on top form as usual, enjoyed catching up with everyone more than anything else.
  • Fox: If ever we needed a reminder of how we'd be without Bob we just need to remember that 30 minutes when he wasn't!! #kebabGate Haven't had such a good laugh in ages - already looking forward to the next one!
  • Max: What a fantastic few days. Massive thanks to Lynda and Bob for everything. Had a great time catching up with everyone. Never cried so much with laughter over that REPO game, and Themys flying kebab
  • Trebz: Another absolute blinder of a weekend, thankyou Bob and Lynda for putting up with us!! Quiz wasn't bad, but felt like it was missing something to make it truly wonderful. Nice to get a pass to eat food downstairs but I somehow feel that will never happen again due to some incompetence. Looking forward to November!
  • Voltsa: Thanks Lynx as always for another great BobLAN, with less mincing than normal too (other than Trebz helping me move my OS to a new SSD, thanks alot "fat Norris") The finals was great, loved the CS2 custom maps (finally codewise is back) and REPO looks like it deserves to be upgraded on the Daz BobLAN games list to a likely/possibly
It goes without saying that everyone expressed their thanks to our hosts Bob and Lynda - what you do is beyond incredible and is highly appreciated!

One final point - congratulations to Parzival who won the PupQuiz! This was the first win by a TNG attendee, albeit by just a single point!!
