Blizzcon sounded fun so I decided to sign up. Any other "Grovers" going to Blizzcon?

Not here, though I was almost tempted with the murloc pet. :P

Hehe, That's what sold it for me.

What is Blizzcon anyway? I might sign up if I know. =)

It may redirect you to Blizzard's home page. If so, just click the Blizzcon graphic near the top right.

Work. Can you CP for me?

Too much content on the site to paste here.

Well, what is it?

Maybe you need to do some web surfing from home. ;) Here's the overview of the event from their main page.

Blizzard Entertainment welcomes you to the inaugural BlizzCon at the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, California, on October 28-29th, 2005! BlizzCon is a celebration of the Warcraft, StarCraft, and Diablo franchises and the players who have helped make them so popular around the world. We invite you to join us for an exciting weekend of gaming and socializing with your fellow Blizzard gamers and developers.

* Contests for die-hard gamers to compete in for great loot
* Custom BlizzCon merchandise and other Blizzard merchandise in the BlizzCon store
* A blowout closing night concert featuring a to-be-announced band – more details to come!

Why did I not get an invite!!!!!!!!!!! I have made it in the top 20 at every WCG warcraft tournament since 2001!



That's pretty sweet, where do the Grove people meet. =)

I will be there at Blizzcon but I will be there late - around 7pm I fly in - so won't get there till some taxi picks me up

I'm going to be there starting Thursday about noonish. My brother is coming along too. I have been to 5 SOE Fan Faires. It will be interesting to see how Blizzard parties. I'm looking forward to it.

Where are you gonna be? TDG people should meet up.

I'll be staying at the Aneheim, Marriot.

You know...just once I'd like em to hold one of these things (fan faire/blizzcon/fanguard, etc) in Ohio. Columbus, Cleveland...hell Detroit would work for me.

Always on the other side of the country. I would love to go, but there is no way I can justify going all the way to anahiem for a game and still complain that I don't have enough money :)

btw. Dayton, OH here.

Getting ready to leave right now. So excited!

So where are all the posts giving us the skinny on what went down at Blizzcon? There must be more than just leaking Blood Elves.

Concert was wierd at the end. I kicked major A S S in the warcraft tourney. Didn't make it to the end though. Got jumped and zerged by a night elf trying to tech.
