I think I just turned the OP into a wiki… can someone see if they can edit it with a new, fresh explanation of the event?
Huzzah. I can; just changed the event locale. I’ll tweak more later with a fresh coat of paint.
Yay!
Feel free to change or delete my initial paragraphs as well. No sense boring people with my random thoughts. lol.
I overhauled the main post, think I touched on and added everything we discussed/agreed on. Let me know what you think!
Fantastic work, Jan. Thank you for the eloquence.
Well done! Just the kind of event I was hoping for, and I cannot wait to attend.
We are now one month from the event. I believe the hype - and nervousness is setting in. I need to write - and hope I’m not eaten alive by the ever-frightening “is this good enough”?
I’d love to have Pandaren from the Steelpaw be a representative. Sadly this event lands on the same day of the Pandaren Summit.
Best of luck for the event though! Hope it goes well!
Aw shucks - I actually figured you’d end up attending or having some of your folks roll around. I had no idea why I didn’t realize sooner that the summit was the same day. I’ve been watching the forum there too. Really big ‘doh’ moment. Thanks though, Lianshi.
This was a miss. We changed the date like 3 times to avoid other events, as it was never our wish to compete. I’m sorry we missed one.
If I can get my lap top working I wouldove to participate in this. If even just as a spectator. It kinda hits home IRL for me too cause I have had relatives in the armed forces, some of which haven’t come home. And even in a fictional setting it’s nice to nod to those protecting others. I love what you are planning here!
Casual bump for prosperity and awareness.
I haven’t done any further planning yet as I have had a busy school week(s) and I’m now fully on the Blizzcon hype train, ticket in hand.
Jan-Mak will soon reach out to those who are supposed to have involvement with the event via in-game mail. Enyetof, Sarestha, would either of you have objections to Jan-Mak “summoning” your characters in a “you’ve been chosen” deal, or would you prefer to roleplay the encounter?
I am working on reaching out to Sunfury Battalion for our elven speaker.
I feel like orcish representation is also super important, so I’ll send out feelers in that direction as well. Less connections personally there, but I have a few ideas in mind. I think someone from Scarred Blade Clan would be willing, unless you already have someone in mind Jan.
Nope. I had a few ideas, but nothing I’ve capitalized on yet.
Cool, I’ll see if I can nab someone.
I would still love to participate but it seems like my lap top is done. So when it comes to WoW my BF and I are splitting gaming time on his PC.
So I don’t know how easily I will be able to attend but I haven’t given up hope! I have one more avenue and that’s borrowing someone else’s laptop.
Either way works for me. I’m working nights until the end of this week, so it would actually be easier to reach me through in-game mail until then.
I’m flexible either way! Whatever would be the most immersive and fun.
I sent the letters; apologies if they feel rushed. I’ve been dealing with severe writer’s block today. X_X
Jan-Mak will be organizing a test/practice run after Blizzcon, likely that Saturday a week before the event. If anyone wants to come ICly, just let me know and Jan-Mak will send another round of letters!
