I went a while back and at the time they did not offer tours, but you can go to the building, say hi to the very nice receptionists and steal some pens.

I actually went to the bakery and bought all of them local pastries. Devs seem to like that.

True, however there are simple folk American capsuliers who may benefit from the distinction between paint thinner and whisky.


Absolutely. One is for drinking, and the other comes in glass bottles with the alcoholic content clearly marked on the label.

De'Veldrin's Corollary (to Malcanis' Law): Any idea that seeks to limit the ability of a large nullsec bloc to do something in the name of allowing more small groups into sov null will inevitably make it that much harder for small groups to enter sov null.

You have to call ahead so they can get emergency pants to all the devs.

Thanks for the tip. Haven't heard anything back yet, but fully understand if they can't accommodate me. Might just turn up with some Swiss chocolate in hand and bribe my way in :)

Whisky!!! Or if yoir of the irish persuasion, 'whiskey' apprently they added the e so folk could tell the diffrence between scottish whisky and irish whiskey.

But blended or malt??

Once you have a dev or two on MSN it is pretty easy to get a tour. The CCP offices are very nice.

I'm more interested in the bars around CCP. Just saying.

...they also have scotch.

I'm going to be in Iceland from 20-24 July 2014. I was hoping to get a quick tour of CCP, as I don't think I'll be back to Iceland for a long time. Do you guys know if the devs run formal/informal tours? Or who I should contact about maybe organising something?


Don't know about their offices, but I have a feeling you can get a few of them to give you an informal tour of Nora Magasin.
