Out of Game Events and Gatherings

What did we do right this year? -- Having the devs there was epic. I tried to collect all the pictures I could with them. http://imgur.com/a/AcbNE

The sit and go pvp was a really good idea.

What did we do wrong this year? -- Walking. The door prize gifts were very far from our rooms. Its tuff in heels.

What would you like us to do next year? -- More player content. More talks from famous players.


What crazy idea do you have for something we could do? -- Picture scavenger hunt. Something we can group up in teams to get done. Good way to get to know people. I'm shy sometimes.

Awesome job Zapawork!

What did we do right this year?
Renting out the voodoo was pretty awesome! and telling salty and to hurry up and spend the last $1000 in the VIP..

What did we do wrong this year?
I thought everything was pretty good.

What would you like us to do next year?
Move the event closer to the strip if of course the price is right.

What crazy idea do you have for something we could do?
Make a space ship float and cruise around it on the strip for the LOL's. don't forget to include a mini bar on it.

I'm sorry we gave so many prizes ;)


Agreed! Who do you have in mind? I can contact them and ask them to submit to our call for speakers


Now this, this is a good idea

Our contract with Caesars Entertainment is up, so all of our options are open at the moment.

So, the vision I'd have for this would be to set up a second room with an assortment of table games; could be Roulette, Three Card Poker, Let It Ride, Blackjack, Caribbean Stud, Craps, etc etc...

Could be a sponsored event, where the house would be covered, and players would come into the room and walk over to the "gaming cage", which would consist of a place with staff and computers to deposit ISK in exchange for chips, then could go play these various table games; which could also lead to possibilities of adding achievements similar to that found with the tourneys, where players could win sponsored prizes (like the STEELSERIES swag) if they make certain hands or hit 00 in Roulette or some such things... Adding to the Eve "Vegas" environment and feel.

It would be a Sit and Go style and players could cash out with the "cage" when they complete their fun, assuming they win... :P

Also, there could be a Sit and Go area through the same set up for Hold'em tables, aswell as scheduled tournaments with various buy-ins.

Just a few ideas off the top, and would be great to have it on the same schedule as you had the Tourney/PVP room, so both days :)

Hope you like the idea!

I only watched about 30% of the twitch feed, so take my comments with a grain of salt.

Done right?

- Having CCP there with a sizable force of devs was fantastic, lots of good information and inside scoops.
- Being in Vegas
- Having an alternative activity for those that don't drink

Done wrong?

- Can't say I saw anything wrong from the stream

Do next year?

- More workshops for varying levels player experience.

The high risk management one was nice to hear, but the poor guy was so nervous he raced through his notes so fast I didn't understand a whole lot of it. Still, I applaud his efforts for doing it.

Crazy Ideas?

Pool party!

'Oh my'

Dude, do we REALLY want to see 300+ space nerds neon white legs?

Also, this time of year it gets cold at night and the pool really isn't that comfortable to swim in, unless you are a canuck :)

There was little to no activity at the pools anyway

Zaps mate, top show, working with you was a pleasure and I'll make sure I'm helping at the next one too!

Everything was done great, and as some one who works in event planning, I'm hard pressed to find areas of improvement. Perhaps let the hotel know our schedule for reference sake as I heard there were a few scrubs who got sperated and couldn't find the blob. Also, being unable to contact the bus companies kind of sucked for me personally (Fri, Sat, Sun, Mon, no luck... Over my phone is in a lost and found some where).

For next year, I still like the idea of a heavily fueled alliance karaoke competition- and while I planned to do it Sunday night after closing the logistics didn't work out. The plus side of that is I know how to get it supported out for next year.
What else? Zilch! Great job y'all. Walking around the next morning was as hard for me as most of the players there. Op success.
Oh! And a disclaimer about not flying the rift while still drunk the next morning would be good. That almost ended badly.

What did we do right this year?

Very nearly everything. This years balance of CCP Contribution Vs Player contribution was about right. There was always something to do, and just enough time for people to do non-eve stuff if they were so inclined.

What did we do wrong this year?

Make the purchasing of tickets clearer on what exactly is included. For example to me, having never been to an eve conference before the Full Price ticket I would have assumed to include the Pub Crawl. Perhaps, next year if there was a full price ticket and a full price ticket w/pub crawl price on the ticket site.

What would you like us to do next year?

More playing of eve. maybe if there was a tournament the day before the event. the 5 v 5 was awesome. More playing of eve is always a good thing. maybe a SCL or some similar thing could be done.

What crazy idea do you have for something we could do?

Eve Vegas players all log in and go on a massive roam killing everyone who isn't there. NPSI!

also, motorcycle rally?
