any notion as to whether this will also be open to participants? i'll ask off work for the conference today. anyone else interested in pursuing a large meetup in the apple to coincide with this conference. i'm only 12 hours south of the apple, and we can get really cheap flights up and down to cnd, er... i mean nyc from charlotte....

Skippie... It's open to anyone who pays the registration fee.....

All sounds good, just wondering when the first conference in game will really happen?

Totally agree, although i believe the main sponsers of this conference are <"sounds like" beckoned strife> so if it was to be held virtually then it would be through there i guess.

I hate to tell you this, but I live in the US and have never heard of EU anywhere, except word of mouth. John Bates needs to get busy or fired. Anytime I talk to someone about EU, they look at me with a dumb stare and I have to spend the next 30 minutes explaining it to them. I've been playing almost one year and found out about EU from a friend. Like I said above, haven't heard anything about it since then either. Not very good press in my opinion.

Skippie I'd love to go to the conference but I'm not paying $700 to register. Perhaps MA could sponsor some sort of get together one of the nights after the conference for local people. *hint* *nudge* *looks marco's way*

True, but how often does that really happen?
