You know what? I'm seriously thinking about going... I've got the money for the flight (300 bucks). Don't know how much money I'd need for hotel (shared room to split costs if possible) and everything else though. But if it fits my wallet, I could definitely go (hoping my bosses don't need me too badly on those days or that no other circumstance screws my fun). :DL

Cheers

Come on, you can find someone to split the hotel costs with.

I cannot count how many Europeans say "Have a Subsim meet in Europe so we can go" and when we do, they cannot afford it. :doh: Once in a lifetime fun and friendship is coming in 3 weeks.

YES! Coming from someone who isn't "the boss" I can tell you (from my limited experience of a Subsim meet, having only attended one) that you will have a BLAST. You will kick yourself if you miss it, especially our European friends who are within travel distance...to meet up with people you've only known from online who share your passion, and to do the activities that you all have planned for this meet....you'd be silly to miss it if it works into your financial situation and your time schedule. If you can do so, BE THERE!

I wish I had won that lottery jackpot in order for me to be able to attend!

Hello, Onkel Neal

You are right, this time the famous meeting its in Europe, and knows how much i like to go and meet you guys personaly, but the things in Portugal are very dificult, and i have my real life to "command" AND no money avaiable to a such voyage!

P.S. Thanks for the invitation...may be one of these days! :)

As long as I live, I'll never forget the meeting in holland. It was 4 fantastics days in my life.

A little bragging rights, while Neal was up here in Kansas City having dinner with me and the family, he mentioned the SH5 demo to me first :ping:

You don't know how hard it was to not come home and post something :O:

Yep (I hope), but the website where I'd make the reservation allows only the same number of rooms as of flight passengers, so I'd have to book the rooms as standalone (don't know how to do that yet).

Anyways... anyone wanting to share room/hotel costs? I'd need to know now (ASAP), so as to be able to make the reservation in time to not be left out.

I know its only a 1 in 6 million chance to be reduced to a mixed grill and scattered over a 10 km radius.... but that irrationallity for you.

I Hope the presentation will be recorded, providing Dan or Mr M dont activate some kind of sophisicated camera jamming device... like one of their hands covering the lense, for instance :haha:

Then again, there's the other (3rd?) kind of Europeans who don't ask for a meet in Europe but do turn up when one is organized. We're not all that bad you know ... :shucks:

Registered members for the SUBSIM meet will participate in a Q&A session and one-on-one interview with the dev team, and witness the first live-action demo of Silent Hunter 5.

And when this demo will be available for all 'SUBSIM registed members'?

09-10-09, 03:02 PM

I align myself with that 3rd kind (this is actually a short notice plan, didn't really know if I'd go). :D

I go because it's being organized in my own country. I'm not really sure, I would have done it, if it were to be held in, let's say Romania.
It's not because I don't wanna go to Romania, I even have some Romanian friends (girls mostly... :oops::03:), so I have plenty of reasons to go.
BUT we also have to be realistic: sometimes economy, work, family or other reasons prevent attending such a meet. That's just part of life too. And that has to be accepted too.

09-10-09, 05:56 PM

I'm going because of two things

1. Have been at such a meeting before(Holland) and it was a fantastic experience.

2 it's just a stonethrow from where I live.

Markus

Von Hinten

09-10-09, 06:00 PM

Well Bas and I missed the one in Holland, which would have been that stone throw from our doors, but after reading and viewing the reviews of later meets we decided that if we could drive to one we'd be there. And this one we can drive to so ... we're there. :salute:

09-10-09, 06:05 PM

And when this demo will be available for all 'SUBSIM registed members'?

I think it'll be just a closed show, by closed meaning only WE will be able to see and "touch" it, sorry.

Well for me this turned out to be the understatement of the meet so far. Those guys have been with us the entire meet and we've been able to ask them the shirts off their backs about SH5 as well as just having a good laugh over just about everything.

Turns out they are actually pretty normal human beings, truly good to have them over here. :up:
