Mindark's small display stand

All in an effort to simply scrape together enough supplies to survive another day, and slowly slowly gain a foothold way out here in a forlorn (yet adrenaline inducing) corner of space.

Most of these folks here look like they've come to Calypso to lounge in front of the telly, watching EBN repeats while sipping their Earl Grey. Perhaps Dub and McCormick need to release a sequel, so that the prospective OJ's know what really awaits them when they step off that rustbucket space freighter?

Huh?!?

Have you even *played* EU in the past 3 Months? To better convey the life on Calypso these days you need to have a Kiss poster with needlepoint and make-up mirrors everywhere. Hmmm, pretty close to what they have, minus the make-up mirrors and overdone make-up and hair styling...

It's pretty close, actually -- lots of TALK about combat, but no weapons in site. Lots of TALK about invasions, but only the ubers ever see the action. Lots of TALK about making money, but everyone's too broke to do anything but lounge about. Lots of TALK about being able to cash money out quickly, but... it's just talk.

Seriously though, I'm glad they are doing this and it's a good step forward.

Nope, I'm having none of it , and I stick to my story that make-up was introduced purely as a camouflage agent. Our planet is still dangerous I tell you! We haven't sold out to Club Med yet! (have we? please say the negotiations are still only in phase 1). When the wave pool and water slides are erected next to Lake Serene, only then will I concede defeat and bid adieu to the adventure I signed up for several years ago.

Looks like a nice easily transported stand. I do hope we will see the bigger stand shipped over to Perth, Australia in August for GO3.

I commend MA for really ramping up their efforts in getting out to lots of shows.

I'd really like to see MA increasing their marketing away from the games shows and more into the mainstream and the financial space. Most of the guys and girls I know in EU were not gamers prior to finding EU (including me). The bigger depositors MA are looking for are out working full time and will be attracted on the back of the RCE and the potential entrepreneurial nature of EU. I managed to get one workmate into EU who has played WOW for years and he lasted 2 days - too expensive for him and not enough action. EU is unique and really doesn't suit that type of gamer.

As some people have said, the moves more and more into make up and styling might mean it's time to start some exhibitions at the house and garden shows Maybe take it to Paris for Fashion Week.

Nice booth!

Which product is MA pitching with it, the service we forumites use, or the platform you're trying to attract other developers to?

...or is the intended usage "dicer / slicer" ...meaning that you can take to cons, B2B trade shows, job fairs, etc, etc etc?

You guys should try Dragon*Con in Atlanta. It's 35,000 people big. Not sure if there's time to get a booth this year though.
