Quake Expo 2009

by **scar3crow** » Tue Apr 07, 2009 4:15 am

Perhaps a bit late for some people's taste, but I believed now would be a good time to begin the discussion of another Quake Expo for this summer. I know we had one just last year, however this year marks the 10th anniversary of Quake 3: Arena, and the 13th anniversary of Quake.

So what say you Quakers? The 13th anniversary for the beast which started it all, and its predecessor which followed up with pure multiplayer; quite an opportunity for another Expo! I hope to see this posted on all the other Quake sites, and would like to see this be the biggest Quake Expo yet!

I'm all for it! Some other unnamed persons have ventured hosting it this year, and I think tastyspleen.net would be more than happy to provide hosting again. There's no reason not to do one this year, as there's all sorts of stuff going on.

There's no 'no'?

You seriously want to say no???

I am all against it.

Last year wasn't all that great in my opinion and I think it is too soon for another one already.

yeah, at this point it's just tenseless desperate masturbation of community effort.

Spike is right, everyone listen to him. Except when he's wrong (which is not now, because he's right).

Spike, you nailed it on promotion, we need to take it to all the other forums, and take it to the servers as well, advertising it when we play, every time something a bit bigger happens on it, submitting it as news to places like BluesNews and such.

I have created a Quake Expo page on Facebook, titled simply Quake Expo. It only has 12 fans the last time I checked, but you have to start somewhere. I plan on using it to do updates as they come, so it would have a Facebook presence at the least. I'm not very up on the social networking sites, so I'm sure others have better ideas than that, but it is a start.

Regarding the server admins, that was an idea I had for 06 but didn't pursue amongst all the other craziness going on. For the optional comments on each booth, I'm not aware of the state of the booth php, Sajt coded it, I understand Willis put a lot of work into it for 08 and continued to work on it since then, but I honestly do not know where it stands on such.
