LAN & PC

MomoCon 2020’s LAN BYOC will have 240 seats, divided into tournament play, and community tables! 

We are excited to announce a partnership with the LAN organization AllMid who will be assisting with both our PC tournaments, and our BYOC community aspects! We are furthering our commitment to improving the quality and experience for our LAN participants. With this partnership we are also introducing a few requested changes:

• We will have seat reservation available in advance, to either the tournaments area, or BYOC community focused area. Both areas are next to eachother but divide by row. By reserving a seat on our registration page you will have a guaranteed spot, as well as the option to load in and pick up your PC rig via the the loading dock right outside of the LAN area. This means you can drive your vehicle right next to LAN to unload/pickup your PC, and not have to cart it through the convention center. Reserving a seat is required for this new benefit. Seat reservations are $5 and will go towards MomoCon’s yearly charity.
• With the help of AllMid we are looking to elevate some our tournaments with more prizing and qualified professional-level casters for the tournament stream.
• There will be additional overnight security procedures to ensure the safety of any equipment in the LAN after the nightly closure at 2AM.

AllMid also brings a partnership with Cougar gaming which allows us to offer more prizing than ever before for our Overwatch, League of Legends, and Fortnite tournaments. Tournament entry will be free to any LAN participants, and will have the following prizing:

Gear

Anyone bringing hardware into the LAN area will be required to report the hardware they’re bringing into the venue. For this reason, we suggest attendees pre-register to avoid the delay of declaring hardware at walk-in registration.

Usage Policy

There is limited bandwidth available for the LAN.  Therefore, we reserve the right to disconnect or throttle attendees who consume significant bandwidth. Torrenting, filesharing, streaming,  and other bandwidth-intensive activity are prohibited on the network. Attendees are also not allowed to tamper with the network or power infrastructure that we provide in any way.  This includes, but is not limited to, unplugging/moving network switches or plugging in additional routers, switches, or wireless access points.

Security

There will be a bag check at all entry/exit points at the venue to improve security because of the large number of attendees at MomoCon. Please remember that this is no excuse to leave your gear in a compromising fashion; we take no responsibility for any loss of equipment.
