Bot Dev / Admin Meeting
Hi,
First I was thinking about opening this thread in the admin's corner, since we cannot and do not want to have a meeting of 1500 BU members :) but finally I put it here ... I think everybody who was in Amsterdam on the bot dev meeting agrees that this was a fine event and that it shouldn't be a single event. I know this is a hard task to get all together, but it's worth the effort for sure. And decisions on things like a united bot and / or a game will be less problematic if talking face to face. Therefore I created this thread to keep this idea in our heads :D I'm currently studying, so apart from tests where I don't know the dates yet, the time of the meeting isnt a problem. And as long as we don't meet at NoVa's place in Australia, but somewhere here in middleeurope the place shouldnt be a problem neither. So what about the others here ? |
Re: Bot Dev / Admin Meeting
I have specific periods where i have tests. I also work in weekends, but when a date is set (even if it is in a weekend) i can probably arrange i have a day off.
Most easy for me is when i have vacation/holidays. Anything in EU is fine. I think somewhere centralized would be nice, or somewhere that is relatively close to everybody. Ie, when 2 are from Germany, 1 from Netherlands and 1 from Southern-France then i think somewhere in the middle (Belgium perhaps) would do fine. Anyway, thats just a speculation. Something i would like to add to Asp's proposal, i think it should be a yearly event at least :) |

Re: Bot Dev / Admin Meeting
i dont do coding of bots but i would like to be there.
I think im helping a lot right now......and intend(gotten really no feedback on it tho) to help mapping for the GAME. plus i dig the idea of meeting all you cool bros in one spot in person :) im in Germany, Bavaria |
Re: Bot Dev / Admin Meeting
Doing another bot dev meeting is a seducing idea... but depending on what we want we may want to restrict or enlarge the field of whom we may invite and who we don't.
If it's for discussing about serious bot coding techniques, with quality discussions, then let's redo exactly what we did in Amsterdam by Stefan's... invite AI popes like William again... and try to be a little more structured than last time :D If it's for meeting together and having fun, then why not invite all the fellow members of this board who want to come and make a huge party somewhere ? Like those they do in the demo scene :) We can do both perhaps I'll be at the Oktoberfest this year ! Maybe I can meet one or two of you there ? =) |

Deciding whome to invite is a difficult decision, therefore I havnt talked about it on the opening post. My idea was to get the bot developers together like in Amsterdam, but also invite important persons from bu, like mappers e.g. :) Well, they do not code, but they know how different things affect the player as well, and in terms of deciding about a new bot or even a new game, those person's can be pretty 'useful' too. and we don't have to hang out together in one group the whole time, maybe we can divide into several 'sessions', so at one point of time, we'll have a round only of bot developers, discussing stuff that not so important for persons like soulfather :) |
Re: Bot Dev / Admin Meeting
lol WAAAAA i dont feel important!!
rofl :) hahahaha |
Re: Bot Dev / Admin Meeting
Well if it's in my area im interested.
Cos i have to travel by public transport. And after my holiday to Michigan i won't have substantial money left to travel again. And i can't go in the month of july im on holiday then. I saw Amsterdam mentioned a few times. If it turns out you guys meet there im there to. I live only 15mins from Amsterdam (and i work there) Besides that id love to have chat with you all. |

Re: Bot Dev / Admin Meeting
This thread seems to lose attention! So what are we gonna do? Let me put these questions:
- where? - when? the most important is WHEN. But we also have to know WHERE. I think it would be fun to have other BU members here as well. We could eventually arrange some lan party? :) |
Re: Bot Dev / Admin Meeting
BU-Lan! ;)
for BU members only.. Free Beer! and no messing around the security guard... |
Re: Bot Dev / Admin Meeting
w00t! I can carry my luggable with me... as long as it's 220V at the wall socket it'll work :)
That would be fun... About the date, I'll be moving around quite often this summer, and I honestly don't know if I'll be able to arrange one weekend. If the date is fixed and not moveable, maybe I can. But I'll for sure be busy as hell. |
Re: Bot Dev / Admin Meeting
im not that important on this one but im free anytime.
|
Re: Bot Dev / Admin Meeting
Look guys, i am around this summer too. It can be any destination. I am with a fellow student though ;) Anyway, i don't know yet when we are goin , as i have to get hollidays from my work.
Probably i will hear this soon, but still... anyway. I also have a friend who is very interested in this LAN party. We can bring our computers. I have a laptop so no problem for me ;) Perhaps we can arrange something in the summer, even if it is a weekend i woul dbe in for sure :) |
Re: Bot Dev / Admin Meeting
i Vote for
Frankfurt or Köln(Cologne).....its seems sort of central to some of us |
Re: Bot Dev / Admin Meeting
as I said, i'm ok with almost all places. In amsterdam we decided to take a smaller town than amsterdam next time, to save money :)
never been to cologne, so that'd be fine with me :) maybe we should meet somewhen all in irc like when we discussed about the asmterdam meeting. Dunno, Sunday at 15 MEST ? |
Re: Bot Dev / Admin Meeting
good idea im there
|
Re: Bot Dev / Admin Meeting
I think Sunday at 8pm would be ok (GMT + 1).
|
Re: Bot Dev / Admin Meeting
While thinking about a location keep in mind the "video conference" idea. You will need some (fast) internet connection for this.
|
Re: Bot Dev / Admin Meeting
About the chat, I don't know at all if I can be there. I can't guarantee, but I'll try.
|
Re: Bot Dev / Admin Meeting
oh shit.....i cant be there......i have band practice......but i guess ill be informed what the result was :)
|
Re: Bot Dev / Admin Meeting
if it's better for you, maybe we can try to find another date for the chat ?
|
Re: Bot Dev / Admin Meeting
keep in mind i am at home till wednesday. And at wednesday i am not even on-line.
So, monday, tuesday. Fine. Can't promise exactly some times. But i will be there around 22.00 i think, perhaps sooner. |
Re: Bot Dev / Admin Meeting
ok, we gotta decide on some date soon. I'm at home in the evenings next few days for sure ...
please scroll up, I added a poll :) |
Re: Bot Dev / Admin Meeting
and you voted 3 times?
|
Re: Bot Dev / Admin Meeting
yes, I have time all three days like I said
|
Re: Bot Dev / Admin Meeting
Let's try it tomorrow evening, when stefan has also time.
some cool suggestions for the locations is something to think about :) €dit on monday : assuming that you ladies know how to vote since some of already voted in this thread, I see that only stefan and me have time today ? |
Re: Bot Dev / Admin Meeting
closing thread, but we should still have the idea of a bigger meeting in our minds :)
|
All times are GMT +2. The time now is 23:03. |
