Why yes, I do fancy coming to a mass avatar meet up, but I unfortunately do not possess the means or resources to do so. :/

:( Sorry to hear that ma 'eylan. Maybe a family holiday next year? No doubt we will be keeping in touch with everyone on the forums so folks can 'virtually' be there.

:hmm: There are a LOT of threads about who is going to Seattle. Now there are threads referring to other threads referring to other threads.
Yo dawg, I heard you like threads.

Well, that's because I'm highly strung! Hahaha.:facepalm:...:D

Nahhh, the reason for this one was because not everyone will be aware of the Seattle 2012 area, so I posted here in the General area where most people seem to frequent. Sort of an awareness post thing

Don't worry, I'm only going slightly mad though....need another Avatar fix I think.

Moco Loco 09-06-2011 08:44 PM

Cool, of course bro, anything to potentially make the meetup bigger :D

Sigh - I wish I could come. Probably I cant because it is very very far away. All the way over the Atlantic ocean. There is little way for me to get there. But who knows what will be next year ;)

You are quite right ma 'eylan. Hope you are able to make it. If it is of any use I pulled together some estimated costs for folks travelling over to Seattle. Hope it is useful:

Just watch me do my thing Alan, no way am I paying $500+ airfair. I'm paying $300 just like last time. Why? Because I'm a badass pennypincher who speaks the language of the deal :P

MOMS Ball Avatar 09-07-2011 06:24 AM

Wow Alan you did a lot of work on this!! Thanks! They should use you on a survey group, or Gallop polls!

Same reason I put the 2012 Cosplay Thread into the Cosplay board instead of the 2012 Meetup Board.

James of terra 09-07-2011 07:00 AM

HOTEL ONLY!!!!!!!!! Better, cleaner, private, safer.

Txantsan! Go for it tsmuke. Yeah my search was from one website to get comparable prices. As I put in the blur, it will be highly likely that you will be able to get better deals, especially if you book early. There was a £200 ($320) difference between when I first booked my flight in February and end of May when I came over. The other thing is that it will be the height of the holiday/vacation season so prices will be up...:(

Oh what's the phrase...If a bloke won't go to the mountain, bring the mountain to the bloke!...or something like that.

So far we have had 31 responses to the surveys, so pass the word round folks to get as much input as me are going to plan the event on the input we get from these.

Irayo to everyone who has taken part. It is very much appreciated by the planning team. :hi:

Alan

James of terra 09-07-2011 07:51 PM

Oh by the Alan, great work as usaul. Hope you at least enjoying it a bit...lol

Irayo ma eylan, but I cannot take the credit. It really is a team effort making this happen. Not just the planning team, but everyone who is contributing though doing the survey, offering suggestions and doing the moral support thing.

Oh, I'm hopefull of enjoying it again. For me it really is about meeting everyone again and new friends too, as well as sharing the Avatar experience with everyone in the various forms that it will take. HELL YEAH!:hi:

Alan

Moco Loco 09-08-2011 12:15 AM

No joke, I think about this meetup every day :D

Alan 09-08-2011 05:50 AM

You too, hey? :rolleyes:

Human No More 09-09-2011 09:31 PM

I don't really mind so much in terms of accommodation, although I'd rather keep costs down, so a 2 bed hotel room at the very most.

All I need is to know exactly and definitely when to be there so I can get a flight booked...

Tu'te 11-16-2011 07:01 PM

kaltxi Alan,

WLT attend the meet, sadly life gets in the way.....perhaps after A2, when my family are settled.

Alan 11-16-2011 08:20 PM

Kaltxi Tu'te,

It's been a while since we chatted! Anyway, it would be great if you could come along. We are not far off launching the info for AvatarMeet 2012 so keep a look out. You never know life might swing you to Seattle ;). Whatever, I suspect we will be still meeting up after A2. :hi:

Alan

Tu'te 11-18-2011 10:19 AM

As previously expressed, I would love to meet all the avi-clans out in USA.....just be great to chat and listen to other folks take on things.

What about a mass UK A2 meet?

I know what you mean, and I got the massive privilege of doing that this year. My first time travelling off these UK shores alone and it was OUTSTANDING! You've got to do it my friend if you can.

As for a mass UK A2 Meet, well I guess it all depends where A2 will be premiered. It was in the UK last time..which I was a bit surprised about, but who knows about A2. I suspect it will be the US. But wherever it is, I can guarantee that there will be us Avatar Fans there for a mass meet up! Hehehe:hi:

Alan

Human No More 11-18-2011 11:51 PM

Even if it isn't premiered, I was going to arrange a meetup in London at the IMAX there on the first night it's there. I will be working by then and have a car as well, so it should be easier to arrange, plus London is easy to get to.

it is certainly a pale shadow of the real event but I couldn't get myself over there last year - so I trailed Seattle Meetup 2011 like a hungry viperwolf thru the forum, every single day of it, and man, it was worth it ... I even got a PSD (post-Seattle depression) if you believe me.

If there's nothing else you can do to get yourself there physically - I recommend this virtual option. The photos, the videos & the comments the meetup crew posted were simply brilliant, they really take you there - & you fill the rest with your imagination :)

Hopefully, we will be able to do the same again next year. I know Mikko had his photos up on line literally within minutes...like 2 minutes!... of them being taken. I was a bit slower with the video...sometime found myself falling asleep as I was editing a few clips together on my phone!:facepalm: And the rest of us were posting on the forums as we could.

It was great bringing those who could not make it along with us. It was like having them with us...well to me it was.:)

ohhh ma tsmukan! what did it matter - 2 minutes, or 15, or 2 hours? you (the photo & video crew) were there & you did it, & you really took us there! Ok, I am speaking for myself but I am sure I am not alone in this feeling ;)
