2009 Blizzcon...!

[Vyndree]

And suvega and vyn coming again this year? Probably not since they haven't been around as much lately but would be nice to meet up with them again

Tickets have been purchased.

We've been absent from the forums to deal with remodeling and subsequently moving into our new home, but we're still alive and kicking.

Suvega is reserving hotels right now.

Got my ticket, but my deployment schedule is all jacked up. I'm trying to get stationed in Arizona. Already have my hotel booked, but damn, not looking forward to figuring out my air.

Suvega, you still haven't gotten me my picture collection from last blizzcon lol.

Btw, do you have my new cell number?

Btw, do you have my new cell number?

The pictures are still there, Suvega just never plugs the darn camera into the computer.

His cell # is the same. If have problems calling it, send me a PM of the number you're calling -- maybe a digit is off or something.

Apparently I was a few seconds too late. I was on the site at 10am and ended up being 8000 something in the queue. Tickets were gone by the time I was about 6000 something in the queue. Lame.

I'm kind of curious to see if they have anything big at this year's con - a release date for D3 would be excellent, but I doubt it.

I would be VERY surprised if they announced the next expansion, although they have said they wanted to speed up the delivery cycle on them, so who knows? I don't remember, did they announce Wrath at the convention, or was that teaser on the WoW site before it? Who knows - they could announce it, start a Beta in September, and have an expansion rolled out by November/December, but that means two major patches between now and then - and I don't expect Icecrown until November at the earliest, that PTR will probably be up 2 months. Nah.

I have a feeling the WoW news will be an Icecrown preview, and possibly more on the Tourney (they're tied together somehow, or so they hint), and some solid looks at D3 and Starcraft.

Got tickets as well. Got reservations at the Hilton. Looking forward to the DB dinner and meeting people again.

Tip from last year. We picked up our goodies bag and badges right before they closed Thursday night. Walked right up no line, and the guys behind the desk were not stressed! This year will be bigger with another hall added, so more people = bigger lines. I wish everyone luck in avoiding LineCon 09.

My guess is that the ticket queue filled within the first 15 to 30 seconds (for those who got to buy them). I joined the queue at 3k, my wife tried literally a few seconds after and got in the queue at 7k. Needless to say my predictions for the Ooops Murloc to rear its head were mistaken (except the night prior when auth servers crapped out randomly, yeah right).

we are working with a few partners to attend in a boot. Can't say much now but I may be their on a press pass.
