Blizzard Invitational 2008 - How about it?
« on: March 18, 2008, 01:11:57 pm »

Saturday the 28th and Sunday the 29th of June 2008.

So, who wants to go?

Tickets on sale in 2 days. I imagine it'll sell out fast.

All sorts of goodies, like a beta key, a pet... crap like that.

I'm up for it, if other people are willing to buy their tickets as soon as they become available!

Now I run a tech website.

I'm pretty interested in going too. Should be really quite amusing! And plenty of cool stuff, and getting to see all the most up-to-date info on SC2 and WoTLK is very appealing. Who knows, you might even get a chance to ask the devs a question :)

If you're  interested in going but concerned about the cost, I should point out the non-combat pets you get in your goody-bag from turning up usually sell for a lot more than the cost of the ticket and (probably) your transport costs combined.

But basically, you will need a hotel room. 2 nights sounds wise -- arrive Friday the night before, sleep Saturday, leave Sunday night.

Maybe have to sleep Sunday night also... maybe... Not sure tbh!

Can grab 1-2 rooms and just all bundle in though. Anywhere in Paris is pretty good as the public transport there is top-notch.

70 euro's for a ticket is a bit too much for my taste, even if you can sell the non-combat pet etc.

If it would've been less, I might've gone. Never been to paris before.

I'm interested, but I'll have to check if it fits in my schedule.

Hmmm, if I can get time off work, I'm there. As I can tell my boss when I can and when I can't work... I'm there 100%.

Just thought I'd mention it, but I just bought my ticket for it, so I'm going to be there for the event :) 70 euroes doesn't really seem so horrible to me, especially as it includes a WotLK beta key I guess, as I hugely enjoyed the TBC beta too. Oh, and generally meeting up with guildies should be cool too :D

I'd have gone with you if I had the money. Say, shouldn't you try to get a job?

brits going to France, the world has changed!

I'm just looking forward to the SC tournament, I myself am rooting for Flash. Though SaviOr took the last Blizzard invitational.

There will be a livestream, so if any1 knows a link, plx post it.
