			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Every August/September I help run the Penny Arcade Expo, more reverently known as PAX.  It&#8217;s North America&#8217;s largest gaming convention, and I run the PC Gaming Room.  With approximately 900 computers networked together it is North America&#8217;s second largest gaming LAN, after Blizzcon.  With the help of 60 additional Enforcers under my command and a dozen or so Intel employee/enthusiasts, we run both a &#8220;Bring Your Own Computer&#8221; (BYOC) side and a Freeplay/Tournament side.  I&#8217;ve just compiled some pretty charts for your perusal:</p>

<p>Firstly, the total number of attendees using the Freeplay machines:<br />

<p>Next, the total number of attendees processed by each Enforcer:<br />

<p>Lastly, the total number of Tournament registrations (which keeps the Freeplay numbers down):<br />
