[Idea/Planning] Huge Possible Future Avatar Meeting.

[Human No More]

Done, and posted on Learn Na'vi, although I'm not going to spam it myself, nobody likes spam and the extra threads will just get deleted, merged or closed.

Well, the best idea, I think, is to have a US-based one and a UK/europe one, due to the large distance involved between the two and the majority of fans being in one of the two.

Irayo HNM. I know what your saying. Just didn't know any other way of making people aware of it as not as many folks visit the meet up section as the others. At least there is a marker there for them to follow now which will take them to the survey.

I've posted it on AF now too.

Irayo for doing the survey. This is a fact finding mission at the moment. If the results come good then we can start exploring the next steps. In the meantime welcome to ToS. Hope you enjoy it.

[Alan]

Well we've had 16 replies so far and it's only been up about an hour!

Kaltxi, Alan!

I did it -- I posted the news about the survey on AvatarPrime and Naviblue. So hopefully you'll be getting even more responses.

Even though I had already submitted my survey answers to you (in the original Word doc you created), do you need me to fill out this new version of the survey too and submit it?

Feedback from the thread on learn Na'vi:

One thing I kinda forgot and so I'm going to add it in here: If possible I would love to see this convention held somewhere (and by this I mean venue, not location) that has reasonably easy access to some kind of wilderness, either forest, park or...something... and perhaps include workshops for sustainability, like seed-saving, backyard gardening, rooftop gardening (just the first things that spring to my mind) or ways to conserve energy. It wouuld seem, to me, to be a helpful theme for those of us who love Avatar and Eywa'eveng and want to extend that love to doing something for our own planet as well.

A nice idea

Irayo for posting the survey for us. We've had 36 response so far!

Yeah, if you could do the survey again that would be great. Unfortunately I can't add your answers to the collected data on Survey Money.

Thanks again.

Yeah, definitely a great idea. I've had a quick look at some of the response (will try and post them as soon as I can) an that is a theme that has come up once or twice.

[Alan]

Hello there,

Just thought I'd give a quick run down on the results so far...

-One person would not attend a get together!
-About 3/4 of people filling the survey are male
-The majority of people are in the 16-21 age bracket
-Most folks would travel to a neighboring state/county for a meet up
-They would prefer a weekend event
-Best time would be around July/August
-Vast majority are from the US, followed by UK, Australia and Canada
-Plenty of great ideas being put forward from camping Na'vi style through to an Avatar tattoo stand!

We need to keep our survey on the boil for the rest of the week if we can to get as many people taking part as possible. I've bumped the thread on AF, which has had a fair few responses.

Come the end of the next week, I'll down load the info into Excel and put the info into some easy to understand format. Pie charts spring to mind at the moment...

[X.,.Pandora.,.X]

I like pie charts haha, can't wait, this will be awesome

[Alan]

I've just checked up on how our survey is cooking and we are up to 68 responses so far. Feel free to PM your friends to take part. I'll probably put a reminder out mid week or so. I think this will work out to be really useful information for anyone wanting to plan a meet-up or convention.

[James of terra]

I aswered the questions, did you get them?? Hope you did alan. I must thank you in your great efforts for all of us here. Again thanks alan.

[Alan]

Irayo for your kind words James. I just wish I could do more. I see so many threads I wish I could join in. There are so many good folks on these forums it just makes me wish we could all meet up some day.

Although the survey is annonymous, I think I recognised your survey response

We still need to get as many responding as possible during this week so feel free to spread the word. I'll collate the results and share them as soon as I can oover the weekend.

If it enables aysmukan si aysmuke to come together then it will have all been worth it.

[James of terra]

TOO bad we could not drag the uk oof the coast of us and canada, you guy would be closer to the avatar action..LOL. Well Alan, I ment it, and you can always ask for help! I for one would help ya as much as possible, and so would other I am sure. Thanks Alan. Oh I whatched the vid on dvd, it was great.
