BYCEPS is the Bring-Your-Computer Event Processing System.

It is a tool to prepare and operate a LAN party, both online on the Internet and locally as an intranet system, for both organizers and attendees.

The system incorporates experience from almost 25 years of organizing LAN parties as well as concepts and source code developed for more than a decade.

Express Your Appreciation

Computers and LAN parties and the Internet are great.

If you appreciate BYCEPS, please consider gifting trees to the world via Ecologi to compensate nature a bit for the environmental impact of us enjoying LAN parties (or whatever reason makes sense to you).

(And if you choose to sign up yourself, this referral link will yield some extra sparkling trees for both of us.)

Thank you.
