Who's going to Quakecon? And are we going to try and have a Polycount meetup?

The dates:

July 31 - August 3, 2008

I'm like #250 on the waiting list for BYOC, but I may have to cut the time short on Saturday, wife is leaving for Australia for 3 weeks.

I wish I could go, but its not a good time with moving and crunching. Maybe next year...

MoP · Jul 2008

I aaaaalmost ended up going on the company dollar. But we're only sending two people this year since we're only looking after an ETQW tourney or something, so maybe next year...

Spark · Jul 2008

I will be there as well, first one as I have always been busy when the past ones came up. Hope to see a few of you there.

I_luv_Pixels · Jul 2008

Sean McBride · Jul 2008

I'm headed that way with 2 of my hi-rez studios buddies. We'll be there for the whole thing.

Anyone feel free to give me a call if you want to hang out, eat, or drink a few. (256) 6944332

Lee3dee · Jul 2008

since this is my first quakecon, do you guys want to meet up somewhere? whats in the area, any suggestions?

Sean McBride · Jul 2008

i think the easiest place to meet is one of the bars in the hotel that quakecon is in. Possibly the rathskeller or however you spell that place...

its the bar in the basement. kind of like a sports bar thats where we usually ended up.

Bronco · Jul 2008

Bah,damn this world and my seemingly constant lack of money!!.

Nah would love to come along again,Mr Rockstar invited me a month or so ago to come along again,but unfortunatily as the last 2 years have gone I can't afford the flights....

Make sure you have a drink for me though guys and have fun!!!

John

Sean McBride · Jul 2008

damn it john, figure this stuff out!

hope to see you next year.

Jeremy Lindstrom · Jul 2008

Lee3dee · Jul 2008

On Saturday, I'll be wearing either my Polycount shirt or Quake3 jersey with "BrucyLee" on the back. not sure how uber geek i want to be. heh

I_luv_Pixels · Jul 2008

rawkstar · Jul 2008

zomg new rage trailer come say hi to us in the VIP section

RazorBladder · Aug 2008

anyone know when we'll get the new rage trailer in direct feed HD and carmack's keynote?

*sits impatiently*

DO IT!

TheSplash · Aug 2008

Yeah I hope we get some direct feed of Rage, there has only been cam stuff so far (i think). The keynote is still going, will probably be a while before sites get it up.

skankerzero · Aug 2008

im actually here. in line for my badge. didnt get on the list at work. i think ill be dropping in ant out randomly throughout the con.

i look like my avatar, only not shaved.

Jeremy Lindstrom · Aug 2008

i wont be able to show up until Saturday myself, wife is leaving for 3 weeks on Saturday so I'll be there around 6 or so

Nilium · Aug 2008

I'm here at BYOC row 17. Only just got into BYOC today, was wandering around the vendor area yesterday. Think I'll try playing some quake live for a while.

Lee3dee · Aug 2008

heading back to Quakecon today, i'll be wearing my PC shirt. look for the guy with the green smiley face t-shirt

Noel: I'll look for you in row 17

MoP · Aug 2008

I couldn't make it this year but my friends and colleagues Jared and Dave are there representing Splash Damage. They're probably wearing bright orange SD football (soccer) shirts. Tell them MoP said hi, it'll confuse them!

Nilium · Aug 2008

Lee: If you were looking for me prior to whatever time this post time is, I was asleep in my room (yep, I actually slept). Anyway, I should be here until about 7pm or 8pm (I'm getting my laptop out of here early so I can have everything packed for my flight tomorrow).

Lee3dee · Aug 2008

I walked up and down row 17 A, B, C at least 5 times during the day, and I didn't see ya. We managed to score a bunch of QCon shirts and lots of t-shirt swag. next year, I'm definitely bring my computer or laptop.

Good times

didn't bump into any Polycounters, I thought I saw Bobo in the crowd, i stood in front of him in case he didn't recognize me, but might of seen the PC logo on my back.

Best computer mod I saw

Nilium · Aug 2008

I was at the end of B17 facing the vendor area, so dunno how you'd have missed me, but it probably would've helped if you'd shouted my name or something. Oh well, always next time (if I go, anyway- I'd like to).

Anyway, didn't see any PC folks either. Dropped by the Rathskeller around 9-930 PM and got dinner, didn't see anyone else there though. You're all losers!

Oh yeah, talked to Jared briefly (mostly 'cause I wanted to see if he remembered me from a project [don't think he did]). Seems the git changed his nickname from Birddawg though, the bastard. Asked him about Frankie, but made sure not to mention you, Mop, 'cause you're evil. Plus it was before you posted.

I_luv_Pixels · Aug 2008

i was chilln with the ID cats drinking for hours. I think i saw Lee's wife in the vendor area.

Lee3dee · Aug 2008

schmoozing with the ID cats must be nice

I was happy to score a QCon shirt without getting smacked in the jaw like my friend did when he jumped to get his. Those QCon fans are savages!

Who's going to Quakecon? And are we going to have a Polycount meetup?
