As another BobLAN drew to a close, the attendees shared their thoughts on Discord. Here is a compilation of those...

• BF 2042 - loved, but think we need to put a little extra effort into map lists. And have a mix of humans only, human and bot, and human vs online players - all have their place. Favourite map was with Q as a gunner and repairer whilst I rampaged with a tank (the helicopter we moved to was slightly less successful) [Pup]
• Another great LAN, fantastic host, brill quiz and some terrible ideas like watching a pensioner question his life choices at 5.30am - although that's possibly not the first time we've done that [Bynar]
• CS 2 - really enjoyed. I do think it is better with stats. Thanks to both Daz and Dan for their support in getting this working. Still a bit of work to do, but getting there. First stop will be a good set of instructions for getting it running locally with hyper V, and then federating dev [Pup]
• Absolutely brilliant couple of days - really enjoyed it. Thanks to everyone for the excellent banter and great fun games. Thankyou so much Lynx for your continued excellence at hosting and thanks to Lynda for all her work behind the scenes [AngryDaz]
• Absolutely brilliant weekend - loved every minute - even the abuse I got whilst trying to do my Wordle! Unbelievable hosting as usual Lynx and Lynda - can't wait until the next one! [Mesmer]
• Bob doing Bob things. Just the nicest host in the world - the amount of effort to make the weekend a success is pretty mind blowing [Pup]
• Thanks Lynx and Lynda for being wonderful hosts as always, had a fabulous time! Shout out to Pup for the quiz as always, really appreciate you doing that. Thanks also to pup for sorting out CS, I'd thank Daz but I think he just spent the weekend introducing problems to be fixed by someone else. Boxing was a stupid idea. Food, beer and banter was as gorgeous as ever, can't wait til the next one! [Trebz]
• PupQuiz seemed to go down well. Sharing the responsibility for creating the content really helps me, thanks to all those that contributed. Favourite stat is Wij getting 20% without being able to see the questions or the answers, yet Themy only got 15% and was in the room :D. And how excited was Dan at finally winning?! [Pup]
• Massive thankyou to Lynx and Lynda! Feeling a bit weird having been last out of bed this morning and having managed a solid 8 hours sleep, very un-BobLANesque [Fox]
• Thank you Lynx and Lynda :D truly awesome weekend [Reubs]
• Can't add anything that hasn't been said so I'll just add my thanks Lynx and Lynda for a great couple of days. I am insanely tired, I'm assuming this is a normal side effect? [Elmo] (spoiler: yes, it is!)
• Not much to add what already has been said but. Thanks to Bob and Lynda as always for opening their home to us. And everyone who makes it a fantastic weekend [Max]
