MSX GOTO40

Oh nice! I'm looking forward to that...!

Wow, I'm looking forward to that.
I hope This not so great news for Nishi San gets resolved for him before that.

Sounds awesome! Looking forward to book tickets.

MSX 40? Are we that old!!?

Tickets are available. Already booked a booth and buffet!

What a fantastic initiative! I have bought my ticket now.

Ticket acquired!

Thanks a lot guys. We had a great day. Great ideas, great support. We had a tremendous start and will work our @sses off to make this one great event not easily to forget. Help us all the way by retweeting, telling your friends or flyer at events! Let's show what a great celebration we can create together!

Really cool! I look forward to this event!

Thom it is great that we reach someone like you! We hope to reach more guys like you, people that did not attend a fair for a long time and connect to this great dutch scene of the 90s. I am sure you will meet and see familiar faces! We are happy to welcome you!

Actually we are actively reaching out to all the guys we know from the 90s. We hope that everybody does the same. We want to reach as many people AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. We want to add some special guests to this great event.

Thanks all! I'm looking forward to December 9 :-)

Nyyrikki!! Great, take some Finnish people with you in the plane!

Awesome!

Minä olen valmis

What is the max amount of booths/tables available?

I'll be there for sure. We cannot miss this one!!

It will be all in English

And we've been talking about you haha, how cool it would be to have you there!

Even if you don't know anyone it'll be fun to attend and meet some new people if you're so inclined. On average I've found people from the scene a friendly and approachable bunch. After all you have the same hobby/interet in common: MSX!

By the way guys: we hear a lot of people thinking of coming. Supporting the project as sooner as possible helps us tremendously! It will give us financial space of course and a moral boost. When hesitating of coming: don't forget that buying a ticket also supports the day of celebration for all us. So better hesitate about coming and not about buying. AND COME ANYWAY.
A stand selling some physicals of Lily's Saga would be great @bengalack. And if you need practical help don't hesitate to ask one of us. We already 'know' each other via the FutureDisk Twitter channel

Ticket bought. NL, here we come

Very cool, looking forward meeting you!

Hi, I bought the ticket for a booth, :-)

Let's make this THE MSX event of this decade

I completely missed this topic! Great initiative, Côté Gamers will be there.

you don't have to RENUM if you don't want to

We intend to start at around 11am, so that at least the dutch visitors can travel to the venue on the day itself from wherever they live. Dracul, you only have to survive Friesland and you're almost there! We do hope to see you!

I wish you all lots of fun! Can't spend the money at this time due to high energy bills (1300+ euro's!) and a loved one with a burn-out/depression.
Think that it's going to be awesome to attend! So everyone who's got the possibility... go! :-)

It was too tempting.

So I'm be at the exhibitors, signing copies of "Modern MSX BASIC game development"

Maybe some cartridges of Logic, SpaceCat and Shyre too.

Shyre is my latest WIP game ????

Tempting! Maybe it is time for a long road trip!:

Do we have an approximate timeline of start and end of the event?

I am looking at having a day trip from Dublin, I can arrive to the venue by 9:30, and the last flight leaves at 21:25, which means I'll have to leave by 18:30 or so to be in the safe side.

I want to know if I will be missing much, or if the event is supposed to have wrapped by then, to consider stay until the next day.

What kind of audio system and projector screen will there be in that building, and will it be possible to test levels/projections prior to opening doors?

Thanks! I'll be doing a day trip then. Excellent.

maybe you can fly for that price...

@latok : that is amazing . How many tickets are we talking about ?

300

300 is a lot of people. Looking forward to it!

SPARTA!!!!

I think the original location could have housed (quite) some more, I think at least a couple of hundreds more? Also the stand holder tickets being sold out makes me wonder how many more actually would have wanted one?

Talking for myself: I could/should have ordered my tickets way earlier (like the org requested us to do (so for good reason)...) Also under the impression the venue/area was quite spacey and it wouldn't go that fast ticket sales wise.. I was kinda late to notice the venue change (mainly checking MRC for info), that was kinda an important change/update right. Ah well, a man can learn (eventually)..

Anyway, yeah, I think it will be packed for sure. I hope everyone that wants to join will/can fit in the performance area(?)

Frisky (again (hi, sorry W )) I wonder if there isn't a nearby building/venue that can be rented, so stuff can be extended & sales opened up again? Getting people moving as well, more air to breath, festival vibes... Just thinking aloud..

(Talked to someone the other day who also waited too long to get his ticket(s)..)

Cheers!

The reality is that the event is sold out, and there is nothing we can do about it. It will be a packed Zonnehuis with 300 people and that's that.

There were quite a few people waiting -at least that what we think- since when we put the notion of selling out on our socials, the event sold out really quick. There no use asking for tickets, making waiting lists or whatsoever. We really got our hands full with everything that needs to be done for the day itself. We hope you understand that.

It's a pity for those true MSX people that missed out. There is a moral responsibility that if you can't come that you sell your eticket to somebody here on MRC or to a friend, so the ticket isn't spoiled. The community can handle that, we reckon. Oh: and if you can't come, don't be an a$$ and sell them for more than what you paid for it.

Thank you ren, that's great!

+ MSX GOTO40 general chatter topic :)

Well, I didn't read any of your socials, just msx.org, and I never even knew the event could sell out. No hard feelings though, december is always very busy times and I expected my chances of being able to visit around 30%.

The funny thing is, I didn't buy a ticket, because I thought I could never resell it when I could not come.

Have fun all of you!
