I just spoke to Lornelin (qh admin) and he revealed a little about what he's up to: Primarily, he just got a lead on a venue in "Infra City" in Stockholm where qhlan11 possibly could be held. Infra City is kind of a "company park" with large rooms and fast Internet, and Lorn has got some connection there. He also said "We maybe book the second-choice-venue just to be safe that there will be a qhlan" He also said PzyX is coming home from the military in the days, and along with MoonCommander, they will be the ones in charge of qhlan (as Lorn wants to be a smaller part). Secondarily, he told me about qw @ DreamHack. He has some connection with the person responsible for the qw-1on1-tournament there, and it sounded like IT WILL HAPPEN. As well as prize money. They have opened another large hall @ DH that will be some kind of "true gamers area" (no fkn loud noise from bigscreen!) with about 1000 seats, and they are yet unbooked (he said). So there's still hope for you guys that haven't booked seats! Further more, he said something about that you don't need to bring your computer to this qw-1on1-tournament... All of this is just what I snatched up from a hasty phone conversation - take nothing of what I've written for sure! However, Lorn is eager to speak to the crowd and inform us. He's afk for some more days, that's why I'm the messenger. But when you read this Lorn - please enlighten us! Edit: XantoM has said that he can do the web page for qh! Join us on discord.quake.world

As soon as more details are revealed about Dreamhack i'm going to prac like a motherfucker and own everyone up! Only problem is work though...hm. =D
If it will be non-byoc tournament then that means it will be easier to investigate the party options here in Jonkoping. I'd be glad to be your guide and co-drinker. :xd: www.facebook.com/QuakeWorld

I guess the fact that there is no proper airport here in Jonkoping puts lots of foreign people off. We have one in Jönköping ("Axamo" but i don't think it's used that much and Ryanair doesn't have any flights there etc. Växjö has an airport though which Ryanair have flights too, and Växjö is like 15 miles from Jönköping. www.facebook.com/QuakeWorld

I don't know much about the venue itself but I know there are atleast one supermarket, a gym atleast 3 computer accessories stores (Siba, Computer city and PC City - Computer superstore) and some restaurants aswell as small food shops within 400 meters. It's right by one of the largest highways in Sweden (E4) So it's really easy to travel and finding your way regardless if you're coming from central parts of stockholm or from Arlanda (Sweden's largest airport) for an example.
Also you can find Mc'Donalds, Burger king and Sibylla aswell as larger supermarkets about 1-3km away.

Hi guys, sorry for taking so long with this, I have a lot of things going on in my life right now and I wasn't supposed to be the one to pull the strings for this lan but what the heck, can't have a winter without qhlan now can we? Gotta get up for work in like 5 hours so I'll make this short.
A venue has been booked for 3:rd to 6:th of January (thursday-sunday), it's better than last winters venue, bbb internet through copper, no radiolan shit.
We might be able to get another _really_ good venue: stockholm city (Ã¥rsta), big, gigabit internet and other cool things, if we can get it the same dates and other things work out with it, we will unbook the other and use this instead (the other can be unbooked up until about 2 weeks before)
Xantom is working on getting a website up asap, he has ftp/sql access to www.qhlan.org and has hopes of getting something up this weekend.
Entrance fee, prizes and other stuff of course depends on what venue we end up with and how many show up, but will be in the same range as previous lans.
Facts:
QHLAN 11 will take place 3-6 jan. (regardless of venue dates will stay the same)
You are going there with all your friends. \o/
I badly need to sleep. kthxbye
