I like the idea. Now if only I had the money to pay for it...



When life gives you lemons, add alcohol.

If I could only make it to Las Vegas...

I'm with you on that one Vi .

Las Vegas is only good for North Americans at best. Why not make things fair and hold it in the Sirius System. That way it would be equally far for all of us to go!

Erm....and what exactly would take place at a Freelancer Convention?

I mean, aside from a bunch of guys standing around talking about Freelancer?

Lifesize replicas of the very heavy fighters, perhaps?
Lifesize replicas of Juni?
Voice actors signing autographs and sharing their experiences from working on the Freelancer project? (which would probably amount to something like "Uh, I did the voice for Bartenders #2 and #14. They paid me $250. It took 45 minutes. Uh...that's all I have to say about that..."

More like lots of people saying:

"I don't know you. First time here?"
"I Guess"
"Well I'm here for the (pause) Freelancer Convention. We don't run this place, but we have an understanding with the people who do. Card?"

killer9870 - I think that a virtual convention would bring the Europeans into the loop.



No matter where you hide, Methane Cloud, Ice Field, or Debris Field, the Rat will find you.

Ahem ... the UK is not in Europe. Europe where those wogs live!

Puke Barwalker - Please excuse me for my mistake. What does the term "wog" mean

Upon further reflection though, could not this web site and its various forums be considered a convention? Where else can one find help for tech issues to where a certian widget is located all in one place? The purpose of a convention is to gather a group of people with simular intrests together for dicussion. This web site does that very well. With this site people from the US, Austalia, New Zealand, Pictairn Island, Germany, and the UK have all gathered together and discussed one of their favorite things: Freelancer. So by definition, this Web site IS our convention.

(If I missed the place where anybody is from, sorry. I only mentioned those that came to into my mind as I was writing this reply.)
