Gday All,
My application is in and regardless of the final outcome I have pre-booked my flight (if unlucky) and holiday dates with work....
I strongly believe this is a great opportunity to:
A) Promote an awesome online environment with good friends and an opportunity for many of us to prosper in such a dynamic world as this world continues to develop.
B) Meet new and curious gamers tired of the issues of the other online games that seem to pale when you consider the real life contracts that have been signed and the opening of future realms to expand this environment
C) Meet plenty of our aussie gaming personalities that live and breathe this game.
D) A chance to show MA that Australia is an important client base of their product and that we along with the other countries have plenty of feedback and positive experiences to offer and promote the one game that binds us all.
For my part I stand by my actions and deeds in the
EU environment and need not list these here but would ask that if a number of our community are accepted that we ALL attempt to attend and meet so that we can put names to faces and share an ale.
To get the party started for us to get into the spirit of things I would like to publicly and officially announce that I banked $200
for a bar tab for those who can attend an after convention party on Saturday 2nd August....somewhere in Perth (all the westerners please help with a suitable venue) where we can meet and have some fun, conversation and celebrate our already successful year of putting AUSTRALIA on the map (WOF08). This is for ambassadors and existing aussie players.
Being the closest nation to CHINA and sharing alot of business ties as well as offering many students the chance for a great education in one of the best countries in the world. I am sure any of the Chinese and foreign nationals that hear of the expo will attend and we should show them some fair dinkum hospitality. I think a group of us attending the expo will give a united front and not only make Mindark consider further expos but maybe draw more new and long term friendships to the game.
I look forward to seeing you all there and cant wait to meeting you and sharing even more laughs than what we have in game and through TS!!!
Just remember when the others are stopping - we are just getting started!!!
All the best!
