Depends if I could make enough selling torches and pitchforks to cover the expenses of going all the way across the country.

More seriously, I think it is a good idea but I don't see myself going.

If it was in Toronto maybe.

It would be tough this year but..YES!

FYI: MMORPG has GW2 2nd of 10 games that will be on top in 2012.

I believe...I believe cackle!

Personally I'd love to see a GvG where you just set up two teams in different rooms and have them play each other, obviously with windows and some audio out into the crowd so people could hear the communication live, maybe with a commentary. Basically like the televised Starcraft competitions.

But that's the pros-where they know what build they are going to run, how to run it efficiently etc, if you're gonna just put 8 ppl together RA-way and ask them to GvG another 8, there probably won't be much fun since they are not organized(no specific builds agreed upon, no planning of what build to use before the match, etc)

If it's somewhere in Europe then maybe.

I would consider going, but only if it was located in Australia - which means I wouldn't be going. Unfortunately cost would prevent me from doing it.. but if cost wasn't an issue I'd more than likely take time off work to go.

pamelf · Aug 13, 2009, 06:56 AM // 06:56

Yes I would, but the likelihood of it taking place in Australia is pretty much 0 so I wouldn't really get the opportunity to go.

KZaske · Aug 13, 2009, 07:09 AM // 07:09

Next year, count me in. This year, not so sure I could afford to go but I would try!

MartynThompson · Aug 13, 2009, 07:17 AM // 07:17

if it was in aus

aapo · Aug 13, 2009, 07:17 AM // 07:17

- no

Jinkies · Aug 13, 2009, 07:38 AM // 07:38

I'm in, especially with Seattle being just 20 mins away... XD

Aljasha · Aug 13, 2009, 08:26 AM // 08:26

if it revives tournaments under human administration - yes man!

JR · Aug 13, 2009, 08:38 AM // 08:38

I'd definately be there. There's not much quite as fun as a night out on the beers with Izzy and Martin.

I think 2009 would be a mistake though. I'd leave it for early-ish next year, so they have more time to fit it into their schedule and have more information available. 2009 seems like a rush for such a huge event.

tasha · Aug 13, 2009, 08:55 AM // 08:55

I've enjoyed the events I've been to in the past and would definitely go again - its a good way of meeting fellow players (who really aren't such asses irl). Not something to be done in a rush though, if they're gonna do it they should do it properly. Maybe a 6th Birthday event (April 2010)?

Anon-e-mouse · Aug 13, 2009, 10:01 AM // 10:01

Personally I would love to attend, even if it meant flying over the pond (which for me it will), however I don't think trying to arrange it for what's left of this year is that good of an idea, and 2ndly I don't think A-net have anything to tell us even if it was arranged off the hoof for this year.

I think the far better option would be to hold it in 2010, announced well in advance (so us Euro types can get good air-fares). Not only will we be closer to GW2's eventual release date (even if it is 2012), A-net will also most likely have a lot more information that they will be able to release.

The point that someone made above, about people being different in person is actually very very true. The internet is a great place to let your inner child out to play. Conventions tend to be much more civilised affairs (Just don't have a PvE vs PvP symposium

)

Oh, I would so love to go to something like that. Unfortunately, I can't even afford a passport right now, let alone a flight over to America and accomodation. Maybe hold one of these things in England for a change? Or hold an England version too? *gets out puppy-dog eyes*

I'd be all up for an english one. No way I'm travelling all the way to America though, lol.
