QuakeCon 2016 - Less Than Three Months Away!
That's right, we are only 86 days away from the biggest LAN party in North America! With panels and round table discussions, tournaments and live finals party, contests and giveaways, exhibit hall vendors and mini-games, there is something for everyone in the family. We are excited to see you there!
And the winner is...

Congratulations to Steven Offield, whose design has been voted as the winner of our QuakeCon 2016 DYO BYOC2* T-Shirt Design Contest. As the winner of the competition, he's taking home a UAC package and a sweet merch credit!
After sharing the good news, we caught up with him to get a quick story on what inspired his winning design:
"I originally came up with the skyline art in 2013 for a different project. I painted it on my soon-to-been-born son's bedroom wall. We're a big super hero family, so making the Dallas Skyline into Gotham seemed like a no-brainer."
Thanks for the amazing design... see you in July!
Note: final shirt color is TBD
