Hello Ubuntu-ites.

I was wondering if it would be possible to.....

On the last day of school, the school's server gets shut down and the computers become dead-weights with no way to log in to the school server. So, I had a brilliant idea. What about taking over a computer lab and playing a massive LAN deathmatch (of Assaultcube or the equivalent free ubuntu game)? I just thought it would be cool. So, is it possible to customize an Ubuntu live CD so that it will have assaultcube pre-installed, and after bringing in a bunch of ethernet cables and a hub, would it be easy to quickly set up a LAN network and begin playing?

I have a little live-cd editing app (http://code.google.com/p/ulc-livecd-editor/). Read this (http://code.google.com/p/ulc-livecd-editor/wiki/ReadmeAndFaq) before using it.
