I was planning on going to the gathering this year, temptation arose so I just bought new parts, inevitable :zoid:
But FlubberNugget.. You must :(
You must!
you HAVE to
You definitely should.
the queue hasn't moved for 3 days now still stuck at 1061
[QUOTE=moffe;34003195]the queue hasn't moved for 3 days now still stuck at 1061[/QUOTE] Chill out and wait for them to release more tickets / open refunding.
I'm sorry but this just looks awful. I had grown out of that lan party show off your hardware/games thing long ago. Being in a crowded place with a bunch of sweaty males playing with computers makes me cringe.

In other news, I'm getting pretty psyched.

Creeping closer everyday. I got my dad riding me there, only fair seeing how he drove my brother every year back in the earlier days of TG :v:
Theme is out, and unsurprisingly, the Mayans may have had a say: [img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2668640/banner.jpg[/img]
Holy cow, this looks fantastic! Even though I'll not even legitimately be a teenager by the time it's held, I hope I can have some great fun with fellow gamers/nerds/internet users. I've always dreamt of a thing like this. (Yes, I am implying I'm 12. Understand me people, I am not a moron.) (I'm also implying I am maybe going.)
[QUOTE=GmanIsJoker;34592232](I'm also implying I am maybe going.)[/QUOTE] Unfortunately it's a bit late to be thinking about going now. You MIGHT get a ticket, but it's not guaranteed and I've been stuck at around place 630 in the queue (for a friend) for weeks. When people start giving up and more tickets are returned, it might start moving faster, but as of now it's looking pretty bad.

Shit, I hope some people are gonna give up their tickets so I can get one. I will bring loads of dosh and give it to the first person who gives up their ticket. I can imagine me standing at the entrance, yelling "460 NOK! Who wants to sell a ticket for 460 NOK? OK, what about 500? 500 NOK?" Heh. But seriously, I hope my parents will trust the internet for once and let me go.
Also, if any people live around Copenhagen, maybe we could go together, eh? [editline]8th February 2012[/editline] Not surprisingly, I'm number 2308 in the queue.
Snip, everything here wasn't true. It was overly exaggerated.
I wish I could go, but I live in Texas. At least we get Quakecon.
Ah, it's creeping closer everyday. Can't wait.
[QUOTE=brainmaster;34789224]Ah, it's creeping closer everyday. Can't wait.[/QUOTE] Yep, it's gonna be awesome :D
FINALLY, after almost exactly a month of hoping, I got myself a ticket. That was a close one.
Well god DAMN. Read [url=http://www.gathering.org/tg12/en/news/27/56/Fastest-in-the-universe/]this[/url]. No really. Read it. [sp]200 Gbit/s[/sp]
Dayum

[editline]1st March 2012[/editline] Also, after March 12th I [I]can not[/I] guarantee that anyone who gets a ticket after that will get to sit with us.
My group is one of the biggest in The Gathering, we're gonna seat among the firstl :v: Also 3 of my friends are bringing webcams and I have a 1080p one which we will stream from 24/7 for all of you who can't be there. Also, have our masterpiece from last year. (Which fell down and broke a keyboard which we had to pay for later haha) [img]http://i.imgur.com/U8MpB.jpg[/img] It was made of soda cans, a soda board, some fur and shitloads of duct tape.
This is something WORTH going to Norway for. Too bad I might not be able to go.
I made us a steam group, accept the invitations people: [url]http://steamcommunity.com/groups/FacepunchTG[/url]
200Gbit/s is going to be awesome.
Im not going this year, but im just wondering. If you cant sleep by your keyboard. Where do you sleep then?
[QUOTE=Johan123;34981375]Im not going this year, but im just wondering. If you cant sleep by your keyboard. Where do you sleep then?[/QUOTE] In the spectator seating area in sleeping bags. [editline]4th March 2012[/editline] Or in the sleeping tent, but that's usually cold as shit if the weather isn't warm. Or in your car.
