Any idea how the winners will be contacted? I won an upgrade, but no one from CCP has reached out. I also sent a PM via facebook. http://community.eveonline.com/news/news-channels/eve-online-news/another-eve-vegas-winner-revealed/

Because of the upgrade, I went ahead and booked the overpriced PH room using the Eve Vegas link to make sure I was eligible (It was about $300 more than booking a flight and PH hotel package on Expedia). Not a huge deal, but it does cut into my fun money.

Since I haven't heard from anyone in four days, the statement from the website is making me increasingly nervous: "For room upgrade or suite upgrade prizes you will need to submit a receipt for a room booking at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino, Las Vegas, during at least 2 of the 3 conference dates (Oct 17-19) within 48 hours of being notified of the win via email."

No one has notified me via evemail, PM, or personal mail so I'm assuming the clock has not started to lose the room. Just to be safe, I'm forwarding my confirmation to the website's email address: evevegas@ccpgames.com. The confirmation is from 9/19. Any updates would be helpful.


Winners should all have gotten and E-mail with details. I'll EVE mail you an E-mail address you should contact.

We'll get a drink at the hotel to start us off and then take a walk together to the area where the bars are. We'll go to a few different bars for drinks and shenanigans, at some point we'll ride the high roller and get more drinks and then we'll end up in a place where we can all hang out. And have more drinks! :D

It's going to be glorious!

What does the $100 cover? Do we get drink tickets?

So one bar mentioned specifically, a roller coaster ride (great idea for a bunch of people drinking all night, BTW Roll), and then...what, we figure the rest out as we go? Seriously?

Pretty far cry from the Pub Crawls of the last couple of years IMO, it doesn't sound like it's going to be worth the price tag. No party buses this year? No other planned stops, just walking around to "a few different bars" and "we'll end up in a place where we can all hang out?"

Tickets go on sale in two hours. With 400+ Eve Vegas tickets sold, and only 200 Pub Crawl tickets available, and so few concrete details, I'm thinking my $100 is better spent elsewhere. Unless we get some more solid idea of what we're getting for our money, I think I'll be passing this year.

Oh of course, there will be drinks in all bars we go to included in the price. I'm sorry I didn't mention that, thought it was a given but maybe it isn't for all pub crawls. We like our pub crawls to have drinks at least.

I'm not sure why, but I'm skeptical. I think it's from the lack of details this year. Not as much hype :( Also, when I went to Vegas for a wedding last year, at the Batchelor party, I shelled out $34 for a single (a vodka redbull) drink..
However, I forked out the $106.xx for the ticket. So I'm excited to hear more about what we will be doing and what it covers.
Please post more details if you guys know anything we don't :)
Also, is there a list of ccp employees going? Is anyone from the art department or the economic team coming this year? :D

Last year we actually ended up in a place that had a sort of roller coaster. This is just an easy sight seeing roundabout thingie for sophisticated ladies and gentlemen.

That was fun. Up the top of the stratosphere, being dropped over the edge Smile

It was fun in that strange "Ugh, why did I do this, I'm only going to get that feeling you get when you're about to die and then I'll be happy when it's over" way.

Last year we were picked up in party buses to move us between the bars. While on the bus we were given our drink tickets too. Also at some point in the night I remember riding in this amazing stretch Hummer... I'm a little foggy on that one Blink
Also the Stratosphere was a great place to round off the night. Should we expect more of the same this year or are we hoofing it all night?

It's just round the corner, I'm guessing but probably on foot.

Ohh I know the LinQ is just a half mile away, but this part makes me think we will go further. Just curious.

Is there an update on events / activities ? (Besides the months old information on the webpage)


Times / Dates /Locations?

A rough itinerary would be helpful, I am needing to coordinate with other things during the event weekend.

(Family insists that they come along with me to Las Vegas, go figure?)
