Darn it! Wouldn't you just know an event I could actually get to would happen and i'd be in work! Evil (I live in Warrington, about 25-30 miles away).

Ah well, have fun everyone who makes it! I'll make one of these eventually, hopefully meet a few of you at Fan Fest instead as I WILL be going there.

Sounds fun, i might come on Saturday.

I don't expect CCP to tell us detail of their future plans (e.g. pos redesign) but i would like to know and see more of two things:

1. Last fanfest, CCP showed concepts screen shots of a new UI (i.e. new tactical overlay, picture in picture targeting, dynamic camera) and i would like to see more on that and hear their plans.

2. At a russian gathering, Team Avatar showed players a video about avatar complex exploration. I would like to see said video and anything else CCP can share.

Yeah Kyoto is pretty cool, although a bit small for an eve gathering depending on numbers, there's only the ****** backroom available for eve and they only have starcraft installed from memory. Have photographed one of the Bit lord events there.
