[21:39] <Infinite> Sirrush had the best marketing idea ever, and I am apparently paying for it.
[21:39] <Infinite> But it appears he is shy atm.
[21:41] <Infinite> If carried out, it would mainly involve ArenaNet, which is why I am rather skeptical about the possiblity.
[21:42] <Infinite> possibility*
[21:42] <stephane> mondays are always full of meetings :)
[21:42] <Infinite> :D
[21:43] <Naut> I heard Martin loves Mondays :P
[21:43] <stephane> who doesn't?
...
[21:50] <Sirrush> Oh yes
[21:50] <Sirrush> Infinite is paying
[21:50] <Infinite> ^ See.
[21:50] <Infinite> xD
[21:51] <Infinite> I said
[21:51] <Sirrush> Anyways stephane
[21:51] <Sirrush> What if
[21:51] <Infinite> If the costs are relatively manageable, I can pay.
[21:51] <Sirrush> We were to have 3 seperate Pre-launch events for GW2
[21:51] <Sirrush> One in USA west coast, one USA East and Europe
[21:51] <Infinite> West-Coast Europe*
[21:51] <Infinite> :P
[21:51] <Sirrush> And then pit them all together in WvW in a special pre-release map/client/whatever
[21:51] <stephane> ok so which one would you pay for? :P
[21:51] <Sirrush> WvWvW*
[21:52] <Sirrush> Well we're in Europe.
[21:52] <Sirrush> So obv West Coast US. :P
[21:52] <purple_llama> west coast is the best coast >>
[21:52] <Infinite> To specify the intent of said event
[21:52] <Sirrush> And then when GW2 is set to launch
[21:52] <Infinite> It's supposed to be a pre-launch LAN event.
[21:52] <Sirrush> All three events have to hit the Launch button at the same time
[21:52] <Infinite> ^
[21:52] <Sirrush> Or else it'll be a year delay.
[21:52] <Sirrush> :P
[21:53] <stephane> people here laugh at the idea :D
[21:53] <Infinite> How nice.
[21:53] <Sirrush> C'mon, you know something like that would be awesome. ;)
...
[21:54] <stephane> but
[21:54] <stephane> I like the idea ;°
...
[21:57] <Infinite> And for thw witty, that was an example.
[21:57] <Sirrush> But seriously, stephane, 3 day LAN event, GW2 pre-release and during launch, WvWvW (and perhaps some Pve? idunnolol)
[21:57] <Sirrush> I'm just brainstorming out loud now.
[21:58] <Sirrush> Wealthy Infinite can pay for it all.
[21:58] <Sirrush> So y'know
[21:58] <Infinite> WvWvW as in WestvEastvEurope
[21:58] <Sirrush> ^
[21:58] <Infinite> Would be good.
[21:58] <purple_llama> i just realised
[21:58] <Infinite> Not to mention that you'd have a WvWvW match of about 1k players vs 1k player vs 1k players
...
[22:00] <Sirrush> Imagine the publicity it'd get!
[22:00] <stephane> hey guys
[22:00] <Naut> I want Infinite to fund it
[22:00] <purple_llama> anet can fund w since it is local to them, and we find someone in e who would funt one in their town
[22:00] <Sirrush> Haha
[22:00] <stephane> you need to submit your idea through the suggestion portal :PPPPPP
[22:00] <Naut> LOL
[22:00] <Sirrush> ...
[22:01] <Sirrush> But but
[22:01] <Sirrush> ._.
...
[22:04] <Sirrush> stephane, if we want to go ahead with this project
[22:04] <Infinite> :D
[22:04] <Sirrush> We'll need a date, so we can hire the venue for then.
[22:04] <Sirrush> ;)
[22:05] <stephane> it's not a project, it's an idea
[22:05] <stephane> and you know the drill
[22:05] <Sirrush> Same difference
[22:05] <stephane> we can't accept it
[22:05] <stephane> unless you submitted to the wiki suggestion space

Co-credits go out to Infinite and Naut (sort of)

Oh right, venues:
Europe: De Jaarbeurs, Utrecht, The Netherlands
West Coast US: Washington State Convention Center
East Coast US: I don't know? Wherever PAX East is held?
