We’re coming up on our year anniversary in a month. We've had so much interaction and fun with you all on facebook and twitter! Resulting in our general news updates having lost some love...

This month we have so many events it’s crazy... and we’re going to just be ramping up the activities. Expanding on Theme Nights into Theme days with hours and hours of fun. Starting up various leagues and gaming tournaments.

The past couple months have been really fun. With so much positive input and gain in business we've had to make some changes to deal with the volume! (Good problem to have right?) So it's that time again! BRING ON THE PATCH NOTES!!!

As we come up on this time. The owners and management here at AFK would like to thank you for all your support, input and love. We could not ask for cooler people to serve! AFK isn’t what it started out as, it has become the place it is today because of the guidance and support of our community. Looking forward to seeing you all on the 5th of November, where we can toast to a new and crazy year.
