We held our first public LAN Party as the Nerds With Real Lives Guild. It was Minecraft themed and a huge success! We had an action plan but didn’t have any experience with an event of this scale. It’s fun to look back and identify some of the learning experiences where we weren’t as efficient and made some mistakes. That is what it’s all about though and adds to the adventure.

The video was taken using a borrowed Nikon D7000 and it’s internal intervalometer. It took a single photo every 10 seconds and would only take 900 before needing to be reset. I didn’t realize that auto-focus would make the video “bounce” the way it does. The camera was also running on battery…the reason it cuts before the event opens, to charge it for an hour or so, then it finally dies in the evening.
