Welcome Axe. Get used to not having as much free time as you had pre purchase.

Just checked and we have 19 new members since I checked 10hrs ago.  Again thanks Axe61 for your posts.  I do hope that we receive some more feed back from our new members.

 

Wow a good record keeper I see. What Tax rate do they get?

It seems I will have to comb through HerrMurf's post history... ?

She only appears once on that side of the forums.

 

In all seriousness, FSE was a good time and I appreciate seeing/meeting the people on the other side of the Internet. Hoping there are more CFS and at least one effing helo demo at the next one. Thanks to Jason and Co for the invite.

I don't know why but, I really really want an IL*2 shirt now. Maybe it's some kind of subliminal advertising.

There is a gamescon 2018 coming up, but that is more for sword-wielding dragon slayers, I would imagine. (No disrespect to dragon slayers intended)

I should have burned some vacation and went. Jason and crew did a fine job. If I can attend DefCon for a decade straight I can attend this.

Definitely. The hotness aside, the sheer patriotism brings a tear to the eye. My wife wouldn't let me wear an IL*2 shirt much less put on such a display herself...

Yeah, but I heard the winner gets a T-shirt. So, the next photo is HerrMurf in nothing but a T-shit and a TiR headset...................

Really appreciated having you (il2 folks) at the expo! My dad, who also went, commented that the Samsung Odyssey goggles/headset you had were much clearer than the gear that was used in the X-Plane 11 booth (oculus or HTC, I forget which).  

As far as shirts go (prev posts this forum), I'd think it wouldn't be the idea to have it a moneymaker.. Just break even, because the advertising I'm sure would be far more beneficial. 

After paying airfare, hotel, expo tix, etc, having some dirt cheap swag makes the attendee feel like it was so much more worth it.  Discounts on your recent titles would have been nice Esp since the attendees at events like this are much more apt to either give a good review or grumble. 

Btw, the discount code, while not good for the recent titles, was still nice and is getting a purchase of BOS out of me. 

Now to figure out a license/drm question before deciding to purchase direct or via steam (the card doesn't say that it can't be Steam but that's not my Q). 

 

In any case, great job at the expo and I'm glad you were there.

New numbers update incoming, after inputting information into my super computer (Canon P170-DH, um adding machine;)) as of the latest count we now have 149,918 members on this forum.  Last week at this time we had 149,614, that is an increase of 304 members in one week.  I think a great majority of the new members have purchased a version of BOX just by the number of new member posts asking questions on this forum.  

 

Again great job BOX team and I think this increase in one week is a good sign that our BOX series will be here for a long while :biggrin:

Nice but La Vegas is like 9000kms from where I live and Moscow 5000kms, so sorry I could not and many like me could not  attend this simulation fest. Nice pictures, happy that you could enjoy it.:salute:
