kieron	Posted - 2006.10.24 14:58:00 - [1] Due to a very positive community response, we are rapidly approaching the maximum number of tickets we may sell for the Fanfest due to limitations imposed by the size of the venue. That's right, the Fanfest is in danger of being sold out. If you have booked your travel arrangements but not purchased your Fanfest ticket, it is in your best interest do to so immediately. There are no gaurantees that tickets will be available at the door and once we have sold out, that's it. We can't make any exceptions. For more information, please visit the Fanfest information page. It's almost time for the Party at the Top of the World. Don't be left standing out in the cold. kieron Community Manager, EVE Online

Going from California just for a fanfest (even if its an awesome 3 days long) just doesn't do it for me. You ought to have a Euro fest and a North America fest, maybe around New York or a province along the US/Canada border. -----------

You ought to have a Euro fest and a North America fest, maybe around New York or a province along the US/Canada border. I would have packed you up in one of my bags, but I'm already in Iceland and Customs sort of frowns on human smuggling. I know of a player gathering in the very early planning stages tentatively planned for spring of '07 in Florida that looks like it will be big. As for 'selling out being a bad thing', yes and no. It is great that we are on the verge of selling out, but a bummer for the players who couldn't make earlier arrangements to attend. kieron Community Manager, EVE Online

Just ensure that does NOT happend with the beer! Beer Being sold out I mean! FANFEST 4TW!!!!

Wrangler	Posted - 2006.10.24 19:00:00 - [16] Adding some answers to questions that didn't get answered in the old thread. Originally by: Therem Harth I don't know if it's by design or not, but fanfest packages are no longer on Icelandair website(s), the "form to contact Icelandair travel agents" has been assuring me that "personnel has been notified" about Error 500 it generates on submit, for about a month now, and it is not possible to reach Icelandair reservation phone in Sweden from abroad, at least if you want anything else except listening to Swedish-only recorded announcements :( email to Icelandair gets replied with a week's delay saying "please call reservation agents". Can some kind soul (kieron? Wrangler?) clarify some simple things here maybe? - is Icelandair package deal from Stockholm still on? - are the Loftleindir (sp?) and Nordica full up or there are still rooms? - what are the alternative suggested hotels/whatever accomodation, if any, if my friends and I have to go book everything separately and not via Icelandair? Many thanks in advance The Fan Fest package from Sweden was sold out, but is back again. Though you will be staying at Loftleidir and not Nordica. As kierons top post says, it is nearly sold out so you better hurry. You can find the packages on this page. Originally by: ObiDoom Kenobi Do you guys have any indication of attendence yet? Yes, we do. Let's just say it's around 500, players and others included.

You shall as soon you have bought the ticket receive a email holding your order number and confirmation number, plus number of tickets you have ordered etc. With me it took less then 5 minutes to get the email. If you paid by Visa etc. you should wait an hour or two, and while you are waiting, check your spam filter etc. just in case. You should reveive it tho. if not, I guess you will have to contact [email protected] (I think...)

The FanFest is organized a lot by the marketing department at CCP. And Kierons job is to keep in touch with the players. That includes the other leaders of CCP too, to a certain degree. So I hardly think it hurts CCP game developement that much... Also, the fanfest is in Cooperation with like Hotel Nordica and Icelandair. So a lot of the resources thats involved in the arrangement is out-of-house. Yes, there are some devs who ofcource is going to attend the party Thursday, Friday and saturday. And I am sure you know that most of the party is on a weekend. CCP are bringing the players together. We will meet and have fun. It will involve some alchohole, but we will also learn more about whats coming up in the game, compete with eachother in the fanfest tournament. We can also ask the devs questions and bring ideas of what we want in the game face-to-face. Yes, you can say that the fanfest is just as important for the continual developement as it is for us the players who are going to attend!! IMHO the fanfest is just as important for the devs as it is for the players. Sharing toughts and stories - even over a beer - is more valuable for the game then many believe. They say that information in a war can turn the tide of it. For CCP, learning face to face what we want. And for us to have the chance to ask the questions we want is something we all benefits from. And in the end the user who sits at home. Also, what ruined a lot of other games, like SOEs Star Wars Galaxies, is SOEs lack of interests in their playerplase and their opinions. When all the servers where protesting, yes it happend that their servers went down because of ppl gathering to protest against the coming New Game Enhancement patch (also known as NGE or CU2) SOE answered with banning players and turning the dead ear to the outcry. Answer: 50% of the playerbase left within 6 months... For the players it where a loss to leave a once great game. For SOE... well they lost money, but also reputation. EA and SOE is now widely known for their greed, making bad games, not listening to players. While succeeding game makers like CCP earn reputation by taking the playerbase not just into consideration, but also working close with them to bring the game to a greater state!! THAT is why CCP is so successfull. And the Fanfest i think can take if not all the honour for it, but at least some! In addition to all the great people who works for CCP :)

The Flybus takes you to the BSI (bus) terminal where you can change to a bus which takes you to the Nordica, or you can get a cab from the terminal. There's a bus schedule, and they leave the airport in connection to arriving flights. The current schedule is only valid until Oct 29th but I guess a new schedule will be put on the page Eris linked above after that date.

For the love of god, don't take a taxi unless you're seriously rich. I made that mistake last year - was ~ ú80. Flybus is probably the best option, should be about ú10.

The Flybus seems to be the best solution really. The price for the bus ride is 1100 ISK. The bus will then take you to Keflavik Busterminal, which is a 50 minute ride from the airport. maybe it will even pass Nordica Hotell too. I dunno. But from The bus terminal it should be easy to take a local bus to the hotel.

You can take a cab from the bus terminal in the city to the hotel though, or just get on the bus for the hotel. Last I checked the Flybus was 1100 ISK.

Anyone else flying out from Glasgow?

Wrangler	Posted - 2006.10.26 20:30:00 - [50] There is apparently a bus station close to Hotel Baron, and the bus stops at the Nordica. The Park Inn is walking distance so very close to the Nordica.

EFS Manager Eve Financial Services	Posted - 2006.10.29 09:33:00 - [58] Maybe I am being a little bit picky here, but it seems that due to the Nordica (4 star) being full, the packages have changed to other hotels like the Baron (3 star) for the same price. Surely a 3 star hotel is cheaper than a 4 star?! /EFS Manager

If I had to guess I'd say you were paying a premium because you're booking less in advance. Another likely explanation is that the Nordica rate was discounted because CCP is holding the convention there so convention attendees pay a reduced room fee. Either of those is fairly standard practice.

I am arriving at 17:00 Iceland time in Reykjavik on Wednesday. What my plans are for the remains of that day I dont know yet, but I plan to have a shower and some rest before a dinner at the VOX restaurant. I will have been up since like 6am myself, and so I dont know what kind of shape I will be in when I arrive. But a visit to the bar seems required, and some chat with you guys and gals who arrives early. Maybe an occational Dev to if they have not gone completely into hiding. For trips outside the hotel I had a hope to see the CCP HQ on Thursday morning, but tbh. that have so many dependencies like when I get up in the morning, what the weather is, who I meet down at the hotell lobby and their plans, yes even my mood and whims I guess will set my plans for that day. But we will see. Who else are arriving at the hotel Wednesday??
