There does not to be a single female anywhere.

The only ones i have seen are those being paid to be there and they are being kept well away from the main crowd.

All i can really see is lot of males looking really excited about being able to drink alcohol



Questions for Fanfest people

1. Is this the highlight of your social calendar.
2. Is this your social calendar
3. How do would you rate your beard on a scale of 1-10 against the other players there
4. When you have the massive rave at the end of Fanfest will you feel weird dancing with a thousand other men?
5. how many times have your quietly cried so far in your room


Hope you are all having a great time

lolwut? CCP Sunset and CCP Punkturis are both on right now, i really wish they were wearing matching dresses tbh

BTW the compact member list = awesome =p as soon as i noticed this i set all my channels compact

One request about your rightclick menus.... you should be able to rightclick on the item in a SELL contract to access "view market details/view in contracts/etc. You CAN rightclick on WTB contracts but not the sells!

As I've said before.

99% of all female toons are male.

If a female toon insists that she is female irl...there is a 95% chance she is a male.

Sorry I would have gone, but something about being a minor... and poor... kinda made that impossible.

I brought my GF to fanfest in 2009/ Just because the OP never gets laid, doesn't mean you need to project that onto the rest of the Eve population.

OP just sounds bitter he's too poor (i.e. lives in his mothers basement) to afford a flight to Iceland.

I wonder if the whole three day event was renamed to Sausagefest if anyone would notice, much less care?

2. I do other things too, I promise!
3. I have no beard so I guess 1
4. I don't like dancing but I really enjoy watching the thousand men dance and enjoy themselves
5. I just shed single tears of happiness every hour because fanfest is so great

"4. I don't like dancing but I really enjoy watching the thousand men dance and enjoy themselves" One reason i will never go to fan fest. It is one big sausage party.

I have more space likes than you.

I did spot a handful of females there in the crowd besides the ones providing the official interviews. However, I see your point. The Male/Female ratio is unsurprisingly staggering.

I'd say one out of ten people are female.

But that doesn't mean you go alone. When i went I took my wife, and she went on the awesome sisters of eve tour of Iceland, while i stared at a video game. Whats wrong with that?

Eve is just a game that mostly guys like. Whatever.

For some reason, women don't gravitate towards PvP Excel.

EDIT: No sarcasm here.
