We want more than anything for everyone at the event to have a good time, which means that there are a few things you'll want to check before you join us.
Follow the instructions on the Minecraft page to get the software installed and make sure the game is playable and not too "jerky" when you move quickly. Try running. Try looking around in all directions. Make sure it's going to work well on your laptop.
The best way to make sure you're going to get the most out of this event is to have the game downloaded and on your machine.
You should do all of tips to the right to make sure that you laptop is ready to go and the game plays well. We will do our best to help when you get there, but you should really be set before you show up so you can join right in!
