Great idea with the Whiteboard!

Can even set up a live stream.

What you need:
1. Lightweight (preferrable) notebook
2. Webcam
3. Free livestream available on the net
4. Internet (should be free or cheap for those living there already having this or able to use the convension's)

Hook up the webcam on a trolley or attach to a cap if you can walk without bouncing. Post the cam url here and anyone can go there and see the convension live.

Laugh! I had this idea for my half-marathon having the notebook in a backpack streaming my run few years ago but never fulfilled it.

No, we have real whiteboard marker and the members can talk together by real writing some words.

Your option might be a little bit expensive.

I called with Udo Schmitz (Carcassonne-on-Tour) today.

He is also at the Spiel 2013 in Essen.

And he will look at us on Thurday 24.10.2013...

He tells me that also Klaus-Juergen Wrede will come
to the Spiel 2013 in Essen.

It is possible that he will say hello to us...

In North America, convention centers charge you an arm and a leg to use their WI-FI. Not sure if the same holds true in Germany.

Who will also come to Spiel 2013 in Essen?

Please post here if you like to go to the Spiel 2013.
It doesn't matter if you can't come on Thursday 24.10.2013.
We have some small surprisings and therefore we need the information.

Khonnor · « **Reply #20 on:** September 27, 2013, 10:11:24 AM »

This year I will be at Essen for the third time in a row.

The first time I got a signature from Klaus Jurgen, hopefully I'll run into him again this year.

Looking forward to Essen in general!

Hi Khonnor,
are you there at all days of the Spiel 2013?

Whaleyland · « **Reply #22 on:** September 27, 2013, 08:01:21 PM »

Let us know if the new Mueller exclusive is there for some reason.

The Spiel in Essen - the publisher present their new stuff, not old stuff. In that Mueller-Box is no new expansion, only some new tiles or with new design.
The choice for the Mueller box is really small.

Hi Carcatronn,
I thought you will be in France that week.
But now you like to come to Spiel 2013 - that is great.
I am only on Thursday at the Spiel.
Do you like to be a part of our forums meeting on Thursday?

So sorry - we don't meet each other. But perhaps next year...

Some members are on Friday at Spiel 2013.
On Friday there is also the possibility to meet the members and can play at the Carcassonne Tournament booth in the hall 1.

Next week on Friday 04 10 2013 I will meet Moritz Brunnhofer (HiG) in Leipzig.
There we will talk about the members meetings and how they can meet each other. For Thursday and Friday it is not a problem, but with Saturday and Sunday - I don't know. On Saturday is the German Carcassonne Tournament and on Sunday is the Carcassonne World Tournament.

We created some nice surprisings...
More information follows...
I will update the meeting list.

I will be in France earlier in the week. I would be happy to meet up with everyone! I can make an appearance at the meeting, but have a friend with so may not stay the whole time.
