just had a fantastic 5 days and will be going again, we'd had only been in the hotel lobby 5 minutes when oveur turned up with some white wolf guys, since there was no barman he preceded to pour the drinks himself and eventualy bought everyone a drink in the lobby when the barman did turn up, that kinda set the tone for fanfest for me and i had a blast if the mrs lets me loose again i'll be there next year

Originally by: CCP Oveur How many posting here are still in Iceland?
Still here :) Staying at my friend's house which I'm told was the house that Bjork lived in as a little girl with her Mother and Grandfather. The thought that there is even the slightest chance that I might come in contact with a left-behind molecule of Bjork fills me with warm fuzzies that I cannot begin to describe. To maximize the possibility, I have made sure to touch every possible surface in the house... and then some.
Ate at the Sea Baron, went to a play at the National Theatre, and went to Kringlan Mall. Aside from experiencing the near-worthlessness of the US Dollar, I had a great time here and ALMOST don't want to go home.
The Fanfest was really great. It was cool to see it mentioned on Game Tivi and in the Morgunbladid.
In pics, I have a few dozen at the Vault: Fanfest 2007 Photos
I thought Roxxor did a great job, and I was impressed with how well Pann sang!
All in all, it was an awesome trip and I look forward to next year's!

That was a good time. One of the best trips I've ever taken (well the parts I can remember anyway). It was good to meet so many people. It didn't matter if you were friends or enemies, we were all there to have fun, drink, drink, and drink some more.
I'm glad I managed to escape a lot of pictures (although I'm in one of the biggest) because i was hammered most of the time.
Thanks to everyone for making it fun and I hope to see some, if not all of you, next time around.
I have that pic of you in a compromising position with the pink carebear if you want it.

Yay - was an awsome weekend, shame i couldn't stay for longer than i did :(
Looking back on it i dont think i should have bothered with a hotel room, as i barely for 4 hrs sleep the whole time i was there.
Although as zuld said the naked icelandic chicks in the shower made it slightly more worthwhile...even if it did mean the raiding of the mini-bar...lol
Was awsome meeting everyone...especialy some of the interdiction guys, and as much as i hate to say it, but the goon guys i met were awsome.

My picture set : http://www.flickr.com/photos/10014150@N05/sets/72157602899089692/
On the minus - It was hard for an "occasional player" to understand half of the conversations, appreciate the PvP tournament, get someone to talk to. On the plus - The presentations were fine, the Roundtables great, I liked the Agent Missions (great idea!), I had absolutly no problem enjoying the big party
(Why attend the Fan Fest if not a dedicated player? - Well, I might have learned something, I was curious to what you looked like )

From start to finish I had an absolutely fantastic time. I definitely will come to Reykjavfk for the next Fest.
I am struck by how close and friendly the EVE community became at the Fest. So many people came up to me just to chat (ok most of them wanted my picture, but they stayed and chatted too:). I met so many people with whom I will keep in touch. And I am so excited about the directions in which EVE is being taken by the senior management team.
The party on Saturday night was one of the best I've ever been to.
I loved Iceland, loved the Fest, and the only regret I have is that it took me this long to find time to come out.
I have pictures up from the Fanfest here. I have other pictures from the rest of my trip here and here, if anyone's interested.
CCP- Many, many thanks for putting this event on!

What a week, I'm still hungover
Great to see my fellow BoB guys, our table in Jita was not a pretty sight most mornings. Certainly glad I came for the whole week, the Wednesday night set the tone for the rest of it. Also it was great to meet so many other guys and girls from other alliances too, yes even Goons. Plenty of awesome memories, not to mention anecdotes that will probably break the forum filter.
Sadly my camera broke on me, so if anyone has pics of me or people I talked to, just send me an evemail
Thanks to CCP for a great event.

Just got home this evening. So ******** tired I will write up stuff tomorrow. In the mean time, I have uploaded most, but not all of the photos I took that were good. If you're in them, and want yourself named, comment, and I will edit! Likewise, if you are shy, or if I got your name wrong, let me know and I will see if I can fix things.

Great FanFest this time as well! The only downside for me was not enough time between presentations to get lunch/dinner (I for one didn't like the pizzas from Dominos...). Time to start saving money for next year.
Not that many pictures taken by me but... Linkage
Btw, what was that song Oveur was playing just prior to his presentation on saturday (the one with the bouncy Eve-logo)?? I really wanna get my hands on it.

What more needs saying, a GREAT Time. For those that couldn't be there Unf*cking lucky for those that were there it was a great experience and one I'll bear the scares of forever (Cheers Zuldjan)
All in all the weekend was pretty amazing, the presentations, PvP tournament (Not that I was in it for long!) and the drinking (Hangovers that'll stay with me for a long time)
There were plenty of people to say hi to and even BOB players to talk to (Bone from Ulster) Zuldjam and Lanari from Veritas Immortalis to mention just a few. There were loads of devs who were happy to talk to us mere mortals and I must thank one for the Shirt, it suits me!
Top weekend. Perhaps next year we could have some wifi access as this would provide a great opportunity to PvP with friends old and new!
Regards

Originally by: Viqer Fell Holy mother of all parties that was the best 3 days i've had in a while.
Highlights...
Sat in the Blue Lagoon during a mini-hurricane. Supposed to be a placid lake, when we were there, we had to endure 80m an hour winds and 3 foot waves. Awesome!
Jungle Curry. A certain alliance leader and friend who will remain nameless talked me into trying the famous Jungle Curry on the basis it "wasn't really that hot!". I should have known by the way that Stavros kept laughing that I was being lied too. By mouthful 15 i was almost in tears and had to give in and order a glass of milk to take the burning away. It was stinging my lips to breathe at this point.
I happened to be the OTHER person with them that had the jungle curry. I did like it bit hot. IT is a must try if you go to that thai place! Still need to pod that certan alliance leader for another reason tho :).
Loved the fest. Deff gonna try and come next year but for the love of god plz have it in the summer thats the time of year i REALLY want to be out of town.
Went to the blue lagoon that first night that was really something 80mph winds ,freezing rain, made it really something but i loved it tho. We need for those at next years fest I surivied the Blue Lagoon 2007. I would love it if we do the Blue Lagoon again next year. Oh and to answer Oveur I was there till tuesday evening. Was great to be in the presance of the mighty Chribba. One last final note Crysis eat your f***ing heart out here comes eve trinity 2. Cause god wow is it a beauty.

As with many who have already posted, my first FF was a great experience.
My favorite memories:
- Running into all sort of EVE addicts at the airport bar in Minneapolis waiting for Iceland Air to show up.
- Listening to some guy from Iceland explain to me that it usually isn't that windy in Iceland while I am looking out the window at the rain coming down sideways.
- The roundtable with the GMs - thanks Xhagen! - who definitely care and really give the game a high level of fairplay others wish they had.
- Dr. Economics - great presentation and roundtable - even some of the pew-pewers understood it.
- The British gal at the party in her pink schoolgirl pirate outfit - YARRLICIOUS!
- Enjoyed chatting with Oveur at 3AM or whatever time it was at the party. And yes TOTALHELLDEATH is a better expansion name than Trinity no matter what you say.
Things I learned:
- Bring a damned camera. What was I thinking?
- Not all bars there charge $15 a drink (we found the good local joints that actually had women and cheap beer in them simultaneously).
- Doing ISK/Dollar conversion math in my head gives me a headache.
Anyways, the CCP guys are really approachable and enjoyable to talk to and they are very interested in what players have to say. I'd recommend FF to everyone.
I need a sig here. |

This fanfest was so good it makes me wish i would have kept my ticket last year, I'm still trying to figure out how I ended up on stage with my friends by my side and three devs asking if they could spawn me some goodies. Two thumbs up to the roadkill team for an awesome fight, they definatly deserved to win. The big party on saturday was great or atleast the parts I remeber(guess you shouldnt give free beer to 12 year olds). Also loved to see all the stuff about trinity and ambulations. Thanks ccp for a great FF.

Edited by: Leandra Anor on 08/11/2007 03:31:53 Here are my pics: Fanfest 2007 If anyone knows names for people that I don't have listed or have ?'s for... please let me know!! I was um.... a bit drunk at times....
What I liked:
- 1. meeting people
2. the roundtables were awesome. I loved hearing other players ideas and whether CCP had thought of them already and why they had been discounted or whatever. I loved seeing that notes were taken and feeling like I was being heard. 3. the presentations were great too (what I got to see that is....) 4. the party rocked!
What needs changing:
- 1. Need to seperate things out more! There were alot of presentations and roundtables that I missed because they were at the same time as something else. :(
2. The roundtables should be filmed so everyone can hear what is talked about. 3. The way the party was done, everyone kinda just split afterwards instead of continuing the fun. 4. bigger nametags? Was hard to find people without just randomly grabbing someones tag and looking at the name.
This being my 1st fanfest experience I have no basis to judge on past performance, but I can say with authority that I had a fantastic time! I look forward to attending again next year and this time I will be taking more pics. I also plan to get there early again, but this time to actually GO on some tours.... lol
The Blue Lagoon was amazing and wierd at the same time.... lol the sleet had me wow'd and the waves were awesome! Definitely a unique experience and I agree with a previous poster that we need "I survived the EVE Blue Lagoon trip 2007!" shirts!
Big thanks to the MC crew (specially War Bear) who made sure I got to my hotel safely after the party. Great to put faces and expressions with names I've known (Seleene, Cypherous, Roam, Artemis, Avalloc, Tyrrax, Zajo, and many more) and great to make new friends.
Is it November 2008 yet?
