The Horde, I have to say, seemed to have the higher population, but Alliance made a good showing as well. And a few full guilds came out to see us: shoutouts to Thee Unforgiven on Destromath (the good folks above), Keine Neuen on Malganis, and Dread Pirates on Blackrock, not to mention all of the other awesome readers and guilds that stopped by. They're all in our gallery below -- thanks to everyone who came out for making it such a great time.

Sounds like the damn bartender didn't level up their skills! Heh. Good stuff, can't wait to be there next year. Right now they are looping the 3 latest trailer/game intros on Direct TV and have a big countdown. Exciting stuff from here so it much be buzzing there!!! :)

I'm betting that Alliance players are the only ones wearing colors other than brown, black, blue (denim only) and gray.

Wait, no Rossi? Probably too busy leveling more warriors to come and hang out with you guys I suppose.

More likely passed out after "speccing for Titan's Grip" (aka double-fisting Long Island iced teas).

Dude! If I would have known I would have come down and bought a round.

I want to know if there have been any BlizzCon hookups yet.

"Sir, what do you mean, 'Keylogged'?"

Give us a "who's who" for that photo with the article ;).

Those are some unattractive people.

Ah, the Internet... where douchbags can live out their urge to be asshats true to their douchebag nature, without having to take responsibility for their inability to handle real people face to face.

Not only that, but it's just not true. This is a solid B+ crowd; perhaps an internet meet-up record.

"the bartender, unfortunately, wasn't moving as fast as we would have liked"
question, and im not being a smart ass but did you tell the bar in advance that you were hosting this event and may expect 50-500 people to show up at their establishment?
or did you perform your famous trick like here on WI when you just post a link to a website with no notice to the operator of the site and it gets hammered? (and kills their ad revenue)
i could see it now. no advanced notice, 200 people show up and they have one bartender because it thursday and not a normally busy night.
you cant really complain about that if you did not warn them. however if you did then they are to fault for not being prepared.
see you at 7 mike.

look, i'm sorry Mike Schramm stole your girlfriend. she never loved you anyway.
stop nit-picking about every little thing here on WI- it's pretty obvious to everyone that you've been personally hurt, and you're taking your anger out through this website

There's a guy downtown who claims to make really good drinks. For a tip, of course. He's on top of the bank.
Good thing I'm not actually there, huh. I'd be making jokes like this for 3 straight days.

Okay, someone needs to update the tags on these photos...specially the name, number and address of the cutie in green in pic #2.
vlad Oct 10th 2008 1:49PM
