Fantheon - A (semi) confirmed Event

    As long as it's on the weekend, I'd pretty much go anywhere in the country. I wouldn't at all consider Vegas to be "central," but I'd probably still go. I'm sure even most of the hotels have good-sized function halls. It's obviously pretty early to discuss details, but I'll keep an eye on this cause I'm definitely interested.

    Fantheon is just so awesome of a name. It makes me smile to myself far more than I probably should be, but its too perfect.

    Ah well, Europe seems to be a bit too far from Las Vegas ....

    I'd 100% be game for this as long as said event is not planned around any major holidays. Airports suck during that time.

    I've only ever attended one game-related event. Fanfaire for EQ in Seattle. Had a great time. And least the parts I remember were great. There are some significant grey areas...

    Sign me up for the first Fantheon down under.  I want to observe Kilsin in his native environment, dancing with dingos and mezzing the 'Roos!

    I flew to Iceland a few times for the EVE Online Fanfests...wow what a party.  3 days, huge convention center, the entire city of Reykjavik gets into it with banners everywhere.  So if I can get to Iceland for those, getting to a Pantheon event in the US will be a breeze.

    It's the Drop Bears that would keep me from attending....

    That would be fun! I still remember the first EQ fan faire I went to in Seattle. Seems silly now, but one of the highlights was sitting in a room watching on a big screen, the devs do a quest or an event with players, back before those were much heard of.

    Hahaha, don't worry Brad, I would protect you mate, plus we have tons of great spots to ride around here, bush tracks, beaches etc. I just wish my backyard was big enough to throw a BBQ for everyone! :)

    Drop Bears are just misunderstood, all they want is to be loved! But seriously, don't stand under trees or they will get you! :D

    Kilsin, did you pull that bear?

    Anyway, a Fantheon sounds great!  So long as it isn't over a Holiday, I would surely be there.

    I lost count of the number of times I attended SOE fanfair.  I live here in Vegas (by the way, it's 35 degrees Farenheit right now) so my access has always been pretty good.  And I can tell you this really is THE place to hold an event like this.  They can take an even of almost any size here.  I have seen conventions that consisted of 5 people total.  And if you want FUN - try attending CES (Consumer Electronics Show) some time.  In days past the COMDEX show was here and THAT thing was monster - literally every single room in Vegas taken and companies paying homeowners for their homes for the week.

    I have never been able to afford to attend these things,  but I watch for live streams and such.  :)

    Don't Kilsin and Brad and probably other Pants team members owe us beers from various threads anyway? We definitely need an event to cash in on that. A few posts up Kil mentioned bbq too (I'm going to simply ignore the part about space being an issue)!

    Honestly if we wanted to, we could all show up at some place, with a hotel and convention center and call it a pre-pre alpha Fantheon.

    Maybe in Oklahoma

    My wife and I need a reason to go to Vegas. At my age, the drinking, sex, and gambling isn't enough. But, I would love to go look at the architecture during convention down time.

    Just wanted to bring this topic back up - I really want to see this happen before game launch.
