Multi-boxer call to action - NVISION 08 :D

[keyclone]

In mid June, one of our members contacted me about keyclone. He had been using it for a few months at work (lucky guy) and was loving it. Turns out, he works @ NVidia and multi-boxes to test their boards. We got to chatting and eventually spoke on the phone. I pointed out the screenshots section and vyndrees post... and he was a bit blown away. He showed those and other screenies to people within the company, and being a bunch of hardware geeks, they loved it. It was then he mentioned NVISION which is a big visual computing event with a huge LAN party.

Here are some of the event details:

Where: downtown San Jose, ca

I mentioned how it would be great fun for multi-boxers and he agreed. He got me in touch with Michael, their gaming community manager... and after a bit of back and forth, Michael said he would reserve a section of seating for us so we could play in the same area. The section is on the outer edge of the LAN seating so that we can show off our set-ups not only to the gamers but to anyone attending the event. In order to save this section, he needs to know how many people are definitely interested. (he doesn't want to reserve a space for 20 people and only 5 show up). To be able to keep this section reserved for us we would need to get some solid information back to them by next week.

So what do you think?

saying yes means that we can count on you to sign up as soon as we give the go ahead
Please only say yes if you're positive that you are going to go.

(and yes.. i've already booked my tickets... i wonder if we can get Ellay to show up )

I

I pointed out the screenshots section and vyndrees post...

I foresee an issue transporting said multiboxing rig...

...that being said, Suvega would like me to mention that we both use Nvidia products pretty exclusively... *hint hint, nudge nudge*

[Hakaslak]

Tempting.... but it sounds awfully expensive for food and hotel =/

Though I only live an hour away >.>

And I have to find a computer case for my computer... i doubt I can drag my pile of crap and stick it on the table like some rat's nest of convoluted computer parts

[wougoose]

Really tempting...I just moved down to SF for a job and it'd only be ~40 minutes away...hmmmm

Wonder if we can get Xzin to show up?

[Knytestorme]

[Diamndzngunz]
