IGDA Ireland Membership Nearly Doubled in Past Year!

Ronny

Good work! Is that fully paid up members or does it include freebie accounts?

Peter

It must be freebie accounts, I am only a cheapo account holder.

I think you will find you are not alone there….is Tony the only officially paid up member!

Aphra.

No, I’m a fully signed up member as well.

The subscription is more or less the same as a Game Developer subscription – and you get that publication free as an IGDA member so it makes sense.

However, I’d just parted with the readies when I became embroiled in a survey from IGDA outlining that they were considering dropping GD sub from IGDA list of benefits!

Let’s just say Mr. Del A Roca(?) and I don’t see eye to eye on the benefits of paid up IGDA subscriptions. We’ve agreed to differ, however, adn we should see some improvements in the statements of benefits over the next little while.

Peter

we can chat with him about it at length when he’s over in October…

i’m in your camp, Peter!!

Is he coming for Awakenings?[/quote:673d930c88] yeah, he’s MC-ing the event. he’s a really good speaker too.

we’re also hoping he’ll be staying around for a few days so we mgiht try and get him down to Dublin too

yeah, was a coup!

also hoping to announce another two top names for the event by the end of this week… keep an eye open

yeah, he’s MC-ing the event. [/quote:42c17beb43]

After hes finished MC’ing there I heard a rumour hes gonna play with the bassbin crew down in refuge

I became a fully paid up member a couple of years ago specifically for the GDC discount. The benefits really do make it worth it.
