Golden Spider

Wahoo!
Any idea who we’re up against, nominees aren’t mentioned on the site.

Wahoo!

Lets hope we are not up against some huge site !

Go gd.ie :)

wahaay ! well done team gd.ie :D

Tis fantasic, well done to you guys tis most prestigious

As Aphra mentioned, conersation about the dinner here. Im definately interested if there are a few others.

Dave

Not sure if I’m entitled to, but I recently got put in charge of marketing here (didn’t think it’d take long :twisted:) so (i) I get to pick my gigs and (ii) I’d be at the gd table, if I’m wanted and not gonna be sitting on my miserable self :lol:

I’ll try and make it along, depends on if I get paid in time or not.

Jamie

can’t make it, alas… would love to have made it along

Congrats guys, this is damn sweet! :D

i never knew about a world where you have to pay to win a prize :(

is this the norm.. just sounds so dodgy to me

‘right… can we do headcounts? Definitely going / Maybe going (fairly certain) / Maybe going (-ish)?

I’ll start the ball rolling – I’m definitely going.

Hey fitch – ’tis normal, these Gala night things don’t come cheap and are rarely paid for (some sponsors may ‘lighten’ the bill, but not all of it). Unless they are organised by a professional Association for its Members (e.g. mine, APTMA) and paid for through Members’ subscriptions and the slush f[gag]……[/gag] :wink:

Ill go.

Congrats on yet another award nomination!

GD.ie is officially on the map now. :)

Bad form on my part, but isn’t the Microsoft Launch party that night too???

Hmm…according to the shortlist they have posted on their site, we haven’t been selected after all.

Please advise soonest :)

Oh well :)

:cry:

We could go for a drink to bemoan our misery anyway…

When’s that, then? On the 1st instead of the Spids? Or on the 2nd because it’s a Friday ( :wink: )? And are we not pre-empting the December ‘dig?

2nd a bit short notice for a shindig? (and quite close to the last…)

16th or 23rd were 2 dates that were mooted for an actual shindig (16th would get my vote).A dinner could be an option on the 1st/2nd though.

Incidentally, did someone mention a xbox360 launch event or something on the 1st?

Dave

16th sounds good

Dave[/quote:f157d14cd6]16th gets my vote too for the ‘Dig (nice one, Steph!)

drinkies & grub on 2nd is a nice optional extra. I’ll be down for the IGDA meeting anyway, and Aphra and myself could head along after that if anyone’s game (can’t deprive Aphra of a guna-wearing opportunity!!)

grub on 16th leading to shindig afterward?

Yea that was me. My mates who work in retail told me about it. Tickets are very limited even for them and some chains didn’t even get tickets, so dunno if even I’ll be able to go. Thought maybe gd.ie would of gotten some like what happened with the Sony party, but I guess at this stage maybe not, no matter… Go about your lives people.

I can’t do 23rd and after, can’t do 9th either, so 16th is all good here :D

I dont think we will be leaving the UK before the 16th Dec ;)

Yup, I’ll be moving house on the 16th :)
Not flying in until the 21st.

no reason why some of us can’t meet up with Omen & Kyotokid after Xmas… as well as the Shindig on 16th

just a thought… there’s no way we’ll find a single date to suit all over the Xmas period

How about the 25th of December?

To tell the truth, other than getting on and off a plane, I don’t think I’ll be in Dublin over xmas.

You know what, it looks like work has given me that day off, anyone else notice that?
