| "...I do not have the sufficient resources to pull the summer BrickFest event together in a way I would be happy about..." I don't understand why you shot this down so completely? First, let me say that I am personally disappointed, so my post may (...) (18 years ago, 14-Jan-07, to lugnet.events.brickfest)

I had assumed (quite possibly wrongly) that it was where the folks attended from, not the inital intentions of (...) (18 years ago, 12-Jan-07, to lugnet.events.brickfest, FTX)

But actually, that's a good point; instead of riffing on BrickFest (BrickWorld) or LEGOWorld (BrickWorld), it could've riffed on NWBrickCon (MWBrickCon), which in my mind is the premier regional event in the US.

And I don't think we'll have a corset-fitter at BrickWorld (mores the pity), or the pirates :-). But yes, on a more serious note, (...) (18 years ago, 11-Jan-07, to lugnet.events.brickfest)

Last year's HoB was a great success, but the sci-fi convention it was attached to was--to put it mildly, (...) (18 years ago, 11-Jan-07, to lugnet.events.brickfest)
