| (...) I'm told David Schilling is in charge of Mindstorms events at PDX. BTW, for those who want to create a GBC, but can't read the GBC Standard page (URL) in English, French or Italian, it's now also available in Japanese and Polish... :) (...)

| I wrote this up a few days, but apparently it failed to post. Right now UA offers a $219 fare roundtrip from LAX to PDX. This is considerably less than a month ago, despite their "winter sale" that started earlier than that. Also, there's a very (...) (18 years ago, 22-Jan-07, to lugnet.events.brickfest, FTX)

| Um, how can it be one-of-a-kind if each attendee can buy two? :P (18 years ago, 16-Jan-07, to lugnet.events.brickfest)

| (...) Yes, Jeremy did a great job with it, I think it's an outstanding event model. (...) Good catch - the bricks for the 2007 event haven't been made yet, so we used the only PDX brick we had available, which of course had 2004 on it (from the last (...)

I hope you plan to change the year on the engraved brick :) Conversely - If Portland is in a time warp, please place a bet for me over the phone to Vegas - I want to bet on Florida to win the national championship in NCAA (...)

In the past, having watched Christina and Kevin Loch, and all the many others dedicated to planning events, it seemed clear to me that the huge, megaconventions like BF, take much more than 6 months to plan. I think she is stating that no one (...) (18 years ago, 14-Jan-07, to lugnet.events.brickfest)

| (...) Hmm. This is something that I guess I'm confused on. What's the difference between a regional, national, and international event? 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)

| (...) Good one! 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. (...) Well, I have to (...) (18 years ago, 11-Jan-07, to lugnet.events.brickfest, FTX)

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)

| (...) Agreed. Some might find it important to note that Brickworld essentiall grew out of discussions at last year's Chicago House of Bricks. 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)
