I'll be there, no idea on topics except the usual, updates on legion/dust, valk, eve, etc.
Can't wait to go, the last one I did, back in 09 (yea its been a while) was fun. And yea a non drinker event the first night would be cool, as I don't drink =) or i'll just go gamble, either way |

BUT UPDATE THE WEB SITE! 1) The forum link is from last year and locked 2) No speakers yet? 3) The CCP speakers are not even listed 4) No agenda or hint of an agenda.
Ask us to buy tickets months ago to support this then nada. If this was Jita I would think I just got scammed. With room and plane tickets I have already invested $600 and would appreciate some updated info.
there is a basic agendam if you check. its on the site. the site will update as it gets closer me guess, but more news of progress is nice. still excited, cause no matter what I can still gamble =) In a room full of dumb blondes, EvE is the smart red head on the other side of the room.-á Lots of men like dumb blondes, and not everyone will like the smart red head, but she doesn;t need to change to be a dumb blonde.-á She is perfect how she is.-á Thats EvE vs other mmo's.-á You either like the red head, or you don't. |

I was wondering why so few rooms were available for the group rate they have been out of the discounted rooms since before September 14th and no one has looked into getting us more group rate rooms. Since they sell tickets to the function for 1 plus months past the rooms and not update that rooms are no longer available at group rates before you buy your tickets. and yes I know it states that there may be a limited # of rooms but a update would have been nice. This is upsetting to me cause I bought my plane ticket, and eve ticket and it told me to use the discounted room code but none were left, so I'm sure about 200 of the 412 people coming may also be out of luck on saving up to 300 dollars for the discount as there has not been any available for a long time and no one from CCP updated that info before people bought there EVE tickets. Shame on you CCP and this is the first event I have gone to after 11 years of playing this game. I would hate to cancel do to lack of money to pay for a room, which also would make me want to never try to go to another function again. I'm not sure if it makes me more angry as CCP seems to screw up not just the game mechanics but also the gatherings as well. Maybe you should look into this and get us some more group rate rooms if you want more people to show up. PS I guess the only positive is we will have more gas to throw on the fire tonight when I guest host on Podside podcast.
Planet Holywood is a large resort. Typically what happens is a group that is using the hotel for a conference will discuss terms to save some rooms at a discounted rate. The hotel sets the number of rooms available based on what else is going on. So for example, eve vegas teams goes tot he hotel and says they are expecting 500 people to show up and wonder if they can get 500 rooms. The hotel will look at that, base it on what else is going on in vegas (which is a big town with A LOT of stuff going on, esp on weekends) and come back with an offer of rooms/a rate. The discounted rate is always limited availability. So if you take too long to get your ticket, then you are SOL.
In addition, the hotel might do a special on its own for less then the group rate, as they don't honestly care as long as the rooms get filled.
Also Vegas is a big damn place. If Planet Hollywood's group rate is gone, you and you want a cheap room, you can stay at circus circus for like $40 a night if you find a good discount and its like 3 vegas blocks from PH.
Its not the eve vegas' teams fault they have a limited number of rooms. Its the hotels fault, as that was all they released. You can find plently of cheap hotels in vegas, you just might have to drive a little to get to PH.
In addition, the weekend following eve vegas, vegas is having the life is beautiful festival. So it will be packed eve vegas weekend as well, as people come in to start getting that ready. Keep all this in mind before you go pointing fingers at the eve vegas team and ccp. And one last point, the group rate is negotiated by volunteers not ccp, as this was setup as a player run event with ccp backing. If you think you can do better, then I would say be my guest to try.
Edit: There is an old saying: A lack of perperation on yoru part, does not constitute and emergency on mine. i.e. I you tok too damn long to book a room at the group rate and missed it, then that is your fault. use websites like Vegas.com to find rooms OMG Comet Mining idea!!! https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=331766 |

Look around at other Strip Hotels if you are after a cheaper rate than the one currently available (and in some cases cheaper than the one formerly offered under the Group Rate). Plenty of places to stay in Vegas after all.
(I am not staying at the PH - through choice as I want to try to the SLS)
this. I used to live in upland, which is about 2-4 hours from vegas depending on traffic, I can give you a whole list of hotels to go to.
I personally am not staying at PH, but that's cause i'm using time share points (yea i'm a sucker) so i'll have a 6 min walk, but meh OMG Comet Mining idea!!! https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=331766 |
