Heavens Above

Yesterday Jagex released details of their major real life event. This gathering will be the first huge scale event organized by Jagex. I’m really interested in hearing more about the actual venue and any guest appearances.

I’ve also heard that Gertjaars and his online girlfriend have been offered free tickets, but this could be just a rumor.

I would really like to go, but I would feel much more comfortable meeting a friend beforehand. Perhaps organizing to stay in a hotel with a few friends the night before and the night after the event would make traveling much easier.
I’ve also been considering making a public video for anyone who wants to meet up with us before the event. I have a feeling that many people could be put off by turning up to an event like this alone. Having a whole gang of RuneScapers heading down to RuneFest would be pretty epic. If you’re interested in meeting up with us before hand, let me know!

I’ve heard much criticism of the event being more of a NerdFest. It’s easy to assume everyone will be the average gamer steriotype; long hair, glasses and very thin. But then again, many people were surprised at my real life video with Xemondo since I have spent alot of time playing RuneScape.

The "Angry Video Game Nerd" Character

This is the Angry Video Game Nerd, a hilarious character portrayed by James from Cinemassacre. Of course, this is only his fictional character.

We should never assume that all gamers behave in this mannor! :P

    dude you should get the akismet plugin so you don’t get all those spam comments. Yes it probably will be more like a nerdfest. I’d be very surprised if it wasn’t.
