For some reason I'm on the mailing list of 'site editors' for Eve Online. It's an administrative error but I haven't told them yet. anyway, just got this email:
Dear editors,



CCP will be attending the Nordic Game Convention September 19-20 in Malmö, Sweden. We have discovered that we have a few more passes for the event than we need and would like to offer them to our fan and game site representatives that may have need of them. Please note that these are passes for the conference only and does not include travel, hotel, etc.

If you or a member of your staff might be able to use these, please let me know as soon as possible. They will be given on a first come, first served basis and the deadline for submitting the request is Wednesday, September 13.
If anyone is genuinely interested in going, let me know ASAP and I'll try and pass you off as a games reporter and get some free tickets.

That's true, didn't he say that he wanted to go to Sweden?
I first thought that we should send TinyTeeth, our agent in Sweden, but I doubt that he's morbid enough to represent the views of DaC (TM).

Speaking of Sweden, I'm currently reading THORGAL (wacky Belgian comic) in Swedish since it seems to be nigh impossible to locate electronic copies of the non-gibberish translations. Totally worth checking out, doh. :salute:

I have never been to any game convention so why not, i could go over there and stir up the place, drink some swedish booze and shoot a couple of mooses.

Hell, send me 2 tickets and i'll rip the whole hell apart with a friend of mine!

:salute:

Thorgal was more or less fine, untill they made it as long as some half-assed telenovel.

Malmø? That's right across from where I live. Just gotta go over the bridge and I'm there.

Not that I'd ever set my feet there again. Swedes'n stuff reside there.

Make it 2 tickets, and I could come with as an illustrator / long-haired game-art critic. :che:

EDIT: I was going there for holiday anyway see. Only have to change Nov to Sep eh.

EDIT2: However, sending Kapitän Cleck would be the outmost top of hilarity.

I guess teatime have to report back to them, telling which names they should sign up. Selling the tickets on ebay would be useless.
