Title: IRDC US - Atlanta, GA - May 30-31
Post by: twpage on February 20, 2015, 07:53:56 PM

Hello!

Formally announcing the International Roguelike Developers Conference (USA Edition) 2015! Hosted by myself in Atlanta, GA, the weekend of May 30-31 (backup dates June 6-7). Featuring (currently) Mark Johnson, a handful of other mystery guests, local developers, and YOU!

I am trying to spread the word as much as I can. This would be the first-ever IRDC in the US of A. Please help if you can. So far we have Mark (URR) Johnson coming, and I am in the process of lining up a bunch of other speakers. It will most likely be held somewhere on Georgia Tech campus, in lovely (and sunny) Midtown Atlanta. Final location TBD.

I set up a general page for info here: http://irdc2015usa.tumblr.com/ (http://irdc2015usa.tumblr.com/)

If you are at all interested in attending (in person or otherwise) please help us gauge interest by filling out this very short google form: http://goo.gl/forms/Mqn1AgSXUT (http://goo.gl/forms/Mqn1AgSXUT)

Thanks so much, and happy rogueliking!

Hey, I can't believe this thread hasn't gotten more attention... IRDC in America!

I know I'm going, what about you?
Seriously, please help Todd spread the word, it's going to be a great meeting of likeminded rogues (roguelike minds?)

I'm planning on coming. SO EXCITED to finally meet some people in the community.

I'd like to share my experiences on Greenlight so far. I saw there was a panel on it, so maybe if there are empty slots? I'm awful at public speaking but I dunno.

Although I live in Georgia, unfortunately I won't be able to attend. I work on the weekend, and I'm already asking off too much time this month due to other commitments. I hope it does well, and next year I'll probably be living in Atlanta, so maybe next year.
