For those of you who can\u2019t buy stuff online for whatever reason we are truly sorry. They do have a phone-in option but it will still mean having to give them your credit card info telephonically.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>James also elaborated on the two-ticket per person limitation that will be in play this year.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSadly circumstances have forced this option as there are many low-life opportunists who buy stacks of tickets and then sell them at a higher price to desperate people. Bottom line, never buy scalped tickets from anyone ever because you just mess it up for everyone else in the long run.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>NAG has announced that tickets to the 11th annual NAG LAN @ rAge will go on sale at 09:00 on 31 August 2013. A NAG LAN ticket will set you back R400.<\/p>\n<p>rAge 2013 will showcase computer and console gaming hardware, PC, PlayStation, Xbox 360 and Nintendo games; gaming accessories from joysticks to headphones, comic books, figurines, anime, role-playing, cosplay, board games, creative arts, competitive collectible card games, local game developers and much more.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Dates<\/strong>: 4 October \u2013 6 October 2013<\/li>\n<li><strong>Show times:<\/strong> Friday: 10:00-18:00, Saturday: 09:00-18:00, Sunday: 10:00-16:00<\/li>\n<li><strong>Day ticket:<\/strong> R70 per person (Tickets available at the door)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Weekend ticket:<\/strong> R120 per person<\/li>\n<li><strong>Kids under 6:<\/strong> Free<\/li>\n<li><strong>NAG LAN ticket:<\/strong> R400<\/li>\n<li><strong>Venue:<\/strong> The Coca-Cola dome, Corner Northumberland Road &amp; Olievenhout Avenue, Northgate, North Riding<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h6>\u00a0Source: <a title=\"NAG\" href=\"http:\/\/www.nag.co.za\/\" target=\"_blank\">NAG<\/a><\/h6>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">More gaming news<\/h3>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/news\/56498-best-games-of-2013-gta-v-detail-and-mods-for-jobs.html\">Best games of 2013, GTA V detail, and mods for jobs<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/news\/56365-highest-paid-professional-gamers-revealed.html\">Highest-paid professional gamers revealed<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/news\/56358-top-25-pc-games-of-2013-so-far.html\">Top 25 PC Games of 2013 (so far)<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Computicket \u201cscrewed up\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":196,"featured_media":42216,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_sma_x_autopost_enabled":true,"_sma_x_custom_text":"","_sma_x_autopost_status":"idle","_sma_x_autopost_error":"","_sma_x_post_id":"","_sma_x_attempts":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[31,1455,6022,6965,2452,2688,5793],"class_list":["post-56586","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-business","tag-active","tag-nag-lan","tag-nag-lan-rage","tag-nag-lan-survival-guide","tag-rage-2012","tag-rage-expo","tag-sa-gaming-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/56586","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/196"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=56586"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/56586\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":56587,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/56586\/revisions\/56587"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/42216"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=56586"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=56586"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=56586"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
