SIGN UP
Ive made a 'free for all' Event at meetup.com and there are currently 3 attendants registered ( including myself ).
Please feel free to visit meetup.com and join the Event, or just let us know you are coming here on the Forum!
As for how many will actually show up is hard for me to say at this point.
I have yet to contact friends and acquaintances, and am also going to contact a local school which might be interested in this kind of thing.
Am looking forward to a fun and successful ClickJam! :)
Thanks for posting! Yeah, it would be nice if everyone interested shows their interest. Myself I don't think I will be able to make it this time. I should have known about it a month ago so I wouldn't spend all my money allready! :)
I will be there :)
10am might be a bit early though, is it very important to be there from the beginning?
@SoftWarewolf
If its too early just join us whenever you can within the duration of the Jam, no problem :)
If you want to join the competition however, it would be best to be present between 11:00 - 11:30 AM.
I think I'll be able to make it, but I am not sure if I can get hold of a laptop. Will there be availible pc's or do I need to bring one?
I have tried to get a hold of an extra Laptop, but it has prooven difficoult.
I do have an extra laptop myself, but a dead power supply and cord causes it to overheat and shut down pretty fast ( Its a HP laptop running Vista i think ).
It would be best to bring your own.
Bitraf do have computers avalable with Linux ( you could successfully run MMF2 with a third party plugin such as Wine on some of theese ), but they are only available to use by Bitraf members ( wich require a minimum membership fee of 300 NOK as listed on Bitrafs pages ).
Let me know how this sounds to you.
I have decided not to come afterall. It is just to difficult right now with transport / money etc. I wish you all good luck and hope you have a really good time, and I'll try my best to be on the next one instead, hopefully that one will be announced long before the actual event :)
