Are they the same roundtable and you are hoping for less people to show up at once, or are they gonna be about different things and the rooms will be too small again?
I'm fearing that the mass limits are gonna be too small either way...
All of the repeating roundtables (Wormholes, Nullsec, Ship balancing) are going to be true repeats in the sense that we are providing two sessions so that different people can attend (since they are all such popular topics). That being said; roundtable discussions are driven by the attendees so they'll probably end up meandering in lots of directions, some of which will be repeated and some of which will not. The Amarr and Jita rooms are the largest roundtable rooms available. Holding roundtables in the lecture halls never really works very well as it becomes very difficult to have an actual discussion in the cavernous spaces.
Last year Bettik and Greyscale were seriously sitting on the table (as the room was as full as possible and another 50+ people hanging outside) before Dolan came and moved the whole thing to the poker-area. |

So lots of people are out of the office the week before fanfest, everybody's partying and patting themselves on the backs (for some unfathomable reason) during fanfest, and lots of people will be out of the office the week after fanfest nursing their hangovers and taking some vacation days before the "summer rush". It's no wonder it takes CCP for-freaking-ever to get anything done. Wow. |

They trot out "nobody is in the office" as an excuse for everything under the sun when they need to.
edit: and where are those devblogs? If CCP is planning to hold them until fanfest they should own up to it right now. |

Seriously, you guys seem to use that line a lot (or at least I've seen it used more more recently)
But I do have a question for you... what time of year isn't bad for Iceland Holidays... is there one?

I sure hope CCP flexes it's political muscle to get that strike averted. I'd be pissed if I missed fanfest due to it. |

Quit bitching!
I'm sure they have their own internal time tables, deadlines, and agendas. Sit back and wait, and quit acting like an impatient 4 year old.

There is a lot of tidbits of news about this but I might as well put it out there.
As far as the strike goes people should be contacting Icelandair about it ASAP. The "General strike" on the 30th with be an INDEFINITE shutdown of the airports, not an ongoing 5 hour morning traffic strike, if it goes through. This means NO flights will be going (or leaving) from iceland until this gets resolved.
Icelandair will not comment on the state of the flights until the morning of the 28th. I has all the eve inactivity |

Same with the Economy round table last fanfest, seem we don't have one this year? As the next expansions theme is industry, I'd say you will have alot of economy and industry talks at fanfest
That is correct, we will have quite a bit of Industry related sessions and look forward to seeing you attend, in person or in spirit CCP Arrow-á-á|-á Game Design Director -á|-á-áEVE Online -á|-á-á@CCP_Arrow |

1st. Semi serious question. For us poor bastards who will be working and or should be sleeping during the meat of fanfest. Where, When and are there going to be recordings of the sessions put online somewhere? You guys were excellent with uploading videos for the last NEO quickly.
Will buying the HD stream get me access to recordings faster or better quality?
2nd. Is this whole EVE of Destruction just been a 6-month training program to get Hilmar in better shape? Looks like he lost a bunch of weight in the Fanfest Brochure. |

You should all hold off an extra week and enjoy fanfest thoroughly.
I'm eager to hear the details too, but it's more fun if a certain fish's buttons get pushed. :)
I find that without a good mob to provide one for them, most people would have no mentality at all. |
