FAQ:
Q: I heard FragFest is being moved/canceled, is this true?
A: Nope! While certain departments would like to make us move, that isn't going to happen. The event will be held alongside FallFest, though. Don't worry, FragFest will be good in all its glory, FallFest won't detract from this, and in fact, it might even benefit us both.
Q: I've never been to SUNYIT. How do I get there?
A: http://sunyit.edu/directions/ has the directions to SUNYIT from many directions. If you are still confused, please send us an email and we will be more than happy to help you out.
Q: I can't attend a meeting! Can I still pay the pre-registration fee of $15 instead of the registration fee of $20 at the door?
A: Maybe. Send us an email and explain your circumstances. Most of the time we will ask for a check to be mailed to us (details on who to fill it out for to follow). However in certain cases we may hold a spot for you and have you pay it the day of the LAN.
Q: What if I pre-register and can't make it? Do I get a refund?
A: Unfortunately we cannot refund your registration fee. Do not register unless you are sure you will be able to make it (or unless you don't mind donating us money). Once it's in our hands, it's ours. All you can get is our condolences that you are unable to make it.
Q: I'm bringing a group with me! Can we get a discount?
A: That's great!.....no. Unfortunately since prizes are determined by the money we get, and we have limited space for people, we cannot give any further discounts. However we would be more than happy to pay special recognition to your attendance at the event.
Q: I'm from out of town. Where do I stay overnight?
A: The gym! Most people bring blankets or sleeping bags and just sleep in the gym. Lights go out around midnight, and people are no longer permitted to play games like Rock Band that will cause excessive amounts of noise. If, however, you do require a place to stay off-campus for any reason, we would be more than happy to work with you on finding you accommodations.
Q: What do I do if I need to contact the officers for something (a problem, a question, etc)?
A: Each of the officers will have a walkie-talkie. The front table will also have a walkie talkie. So if you need to contact Jen, say about purchasing something, and you see Pat, you can have him contact Jen. Likewise if you want to ask Pat a question while you are registering, you can have the front table contact him for you. A member of setup crew MIGHT have a walkie-talkie, if there is an extra, so that people getting setup are more organized.
Q: What do we get for coming to the LAN?
A: Besides bucketfulls of fun? Everyone gets handed a swag bag when they enter. This will have a CPU magazine, a brochure listing all sponsors and all events at FragFest, ads from SUNYIT, your raffle ticket, and potentially other swag items depending on how many we get and how active you feel like being (often times we will have a box of swag out at a certain point, and tell people to run to it and it's first come, first serve).
