Thank you for the enthousiastic reactions. Hopefully more will join. You will experience a superb event.
Didn't know about the lyrics, mea culpa. But you can tell me the full story when we meet. :)
To recap what we did the years before, which might tease a couple of people to seize their chance on the 10th installment:
- 2007-03-23 to 2007-03-25: Amsterdam, NL
= The Euro convention of WipEout in Amsterdam!
The first one, the biggest one. Lots of people, finally we all meet. First time experiencing tournament conditions with PSPs.
- 2008-03-21 to 2008-03-23: Amsterdam, NL
= The European Wipeout Convention 2008
Same place. With official prizes to win and even participation gifts. Started to snow.
- 2009-05-01 to 2009-05-03: Frankfurt am Main, DE
= The European Wipeout Convention 2009, third edition.
First time HD tournaments. 8 monitors and PS3s hooked up! Almost hurried, since always off the schedule for all the races. Lots of Schnitzel.
- 2010-04-01 to 2010-04-03: Paris, FR
= The European Wipeout Convention 2010, fourth edition!
Special hostel lounge just for us. Lots of french participants. HD races again.
- 2011-08-19 to 2011-08-28: Heerhugowaard/Amsterdam, NL
= Wip'EURO'ut 5
Less tournaments. Meeting, barbecueing, visiting beach, great time.
- 2012-10-25 to 2012-10-28: Frankfurt am Main, DE
= The European Wipeout Convention 2012, sixth edition.
Full tournaments again: HD, Pure, Pulse. Sadly this time it ends with Temet being injured. Visited him in hospital afterwards.
- 2013-07-11 to 2013-07-14: London, GB
= European Wipeout Convention 7
Meeting, no tournaments. Unreal weather for London: no clouds, hot as hell - even during the night. Great sightseeing.
- 2014 (did not happen): Frankfurt am Main/Köln, DE
= European WipEout Convention 8
Decision hell: nobody wanted to choose a date.
- 2015 (did not happen)
This year I moved apartments and never considered initiating a convention.
If I'm available, count me in!
New home, new job this year... couldn't take holidays this summer :( ... so I plan going far away for 3 weeks summer 2016 :)
I'll pencil it in ;). somehow managed to miss the previous ones in London
Temet is still alive! :) Seems like I haven't been the only moving apartments since our last meeting.
Hi there, long time no type! :)
Rennfisch and me would love to participate, if time permits. It also depends on the location, which is why we would prefer Frankfurt, if that is debatable and available?!
That would be great, because we could bring some equipment along, such as a TV, PS2/3, controllers, games, accessory cables and whatnot.
I really hope we can find a consensus!
Hey!
You can count me in too. I would like to see you guys again and see the new faces :) As usual I would be able to take every game and equipment needed for the tournament for myself at least.
REALLY wish I could go to one of these someday! Alas!
I should be able to fix 3 or 4 monitors btw, maybe even more if that's required
Sounds good, J.666! :) And of course I'd like to see dreamerx again :D
Well then, we could set it up in/near Frankfurt again in 2016. Haven't played HD in ...years. Any preferred season or date?
Oh, and Merry Christmas to all of you - I'll be with my family and friends. Hope you guys do the same. :)
