Feedback to SE - Masquerade partyFollow

I would go but it's too far for me to travel. (Chicago)

I agree with what some people said earlier. If they make a list of cities they will have this party at, and make them like a month apart. I think it would get a higher rate of attendance.

They should make warp 2 available to everyone on the day of the party so we could all go :)

Maybe a tele-frisco free to all players on that day?


But seriously, id love to go but cant travel all the way across the country for it.

I want to go, and might be. Just 2 hours from SF. I think it's a great idea and love that SE is doing something like this. I just wish I had a really niffy costume to win with. ; ; Maybe SE could annouce events a little bit earlier? That way people have more time to plan and get ready.^^

You guys are all missing it! Yes SF is a problem not because its so far away (60 miles or less) but because SF sucks, have you ever been there? granted there is chinatown and strip clubs which are nice but thats it. The rest is just **** and want to be ****, and if your gay you should go you will have a great time, but I would be more likly to go if it were in NY.

Plus I dont like to dress up much, but a DRK or PLD set up would be sweet. And if you go lots of pics and all that.

last thought the strip clubs sound nice maybe I will swing by on the way to one.

I'd love to go and meet fellow FFXI'ites except 1) California and Montreal aren't just across the country from each other..it's pretty much across the continent lol. Why couldn't they have an event the times I was in Cali ooooooo why :: sob ::...ok enough drama. 2) Even if I wanted to go school completely PWNS me.

In conclusion if it was in Montreal or somewhere drivable I'd go but no way am I going to take a plane to SF just for that heh.

I would love to have attended, but as usual all the events take place in california or are announced the weekend before so i can not make time to attend,(this being the event in NY just a few months ago at one of the gaming conventions up there). I wish that these events were a little more localized so more people could be able to attend. I live in Kentucky so its a little hard to get to california without spending alot of money.

i hate california ; ; they get all the good stuff... cute girls... nice beaches... decent weather... SE HQ... NYC stinks ; ;

they should hold a cosplay event in pennsylvania... that way its like the center of all the people on the East Coast... its kind of annoying that EVERYTHING happens on the west cost ;; (i think more people play on East Coast then on West Coast anyway...ah well) maybe someone will actually read this and feel sorry for us.. ;;

i was going to dress my little brother as a taru for halloween, and for the event, if it was on the East Coast... as for me... Live By the Dark Arts, Kill by the Dark Arts... BLM AF is pimpin' ^.~!

I just want to weigh in here. Echoing the Location ideas. There should be at least an East Coast and West Coast location. I would drop 50 bucks to get in but I don't have the time to fly out and back. The U.S. is a big place with a large numbers of players. I don't think 2 locations would spread us too thin.

And yes a location in Europe would be good too. Probably 2 locations at least there.

SE should realize only 1% of all the America-based US players live close to the designated area for the party. US is too large, in Japan, doing a party in one location is good enough, they can maybe get 5%-20% of their total player base to go, if they choose the right location, Tokyo, or Osaka, for example. But, in the US, they'd need to do, at least 25 parties to be able to get 25% of their player base to assist. For me, I highly doubt Puerto Rico will ever have a party of that sort, if they did it, I would definitely go, though.

Anyways, it's a great idea, SE, keep it up! I love everything you do, except EST Monday afternoon updates.

I want to go, but I won't be going. I also live in the SF Bay Area. The reason is that I don't think I'll be meeting anyone that I can interact with in the game.

I mean sure, we all play FFXI, we probably have some commmon interests. However, there is a high probability that in FFXI, "the reason I am going", everyone at the party will be on different servers.

I went to one of the CoP parties, and I think they need to do more to promote some sort of "server" gathering. Then we can meet/not meet/meet new people at our server, and gather online, say we had a great time, etc....

At the CoP party, the trivia and the in game race was fun. How about a Simon says emote contest, you have to do the emote from the particular race/gender, judging, on stage, it will be funny. I know it is hard to be social sometimes but, I think it is better than hearing about how much gil you have more than me, and how my equipment sucks compared to yours, and how you have +1 everything...

As a player, I really appreciated the CoP party. I hope SE does an even better job with this, since there is a $30 entrance fee. Maybe I'll change my mind and go :P

If they had one in Chi-Town, I would be there. And I would drag my wife too.

Well, I know it sucks for all of those who aren't near California or San Francisco at that. When I saw the letter go out to all ppl in FF Online, I got excited, cause I live only a 2 hour drive. I have that day scheduled off & I have my costume (going as a Dark Knight). I'm working out the driving logistics, as traffic is going to be horrible.

SE should have these parties available more wide-spread, so everyone has an equal opportunity to show off their elaborate costumes and have ppl from the same area meet each other in Real Life - always nice to put a face behind a name of a character you see all the time on your server. :P There's my input.

I'll thinking about bringing my trusty Digital Camera and gets lots of pics for all of you who aren't able to make it, so I can find a way to post them and get you to see what it looked like and how it was. Least I can do. If you think I should bring my digital camera and take pictures of the event, please E-Mail me at djjaytee@hotmail.com. If I don't hear from anyone, I'll leave my camera at home, as I'd rather not hafta lug around more than I need.

See ya!

PS - I'm curious to know if anyone from Quetzalcoatl are coming.
