EgyParadoxhour*13:54
EgyParadoxit was fun, we haven't had the global jam yet13:54
EgyParadoxWhat about the number of people attending the events?13:58

EgyParadoxwhat about release parties?14:00
EgyParadox /install fests14:00
h00kWe had one...what, 2 years ago now, and another 6 months after, but not for the last 2 releases14:06
EgyParadoxI mean the numberof people attending14:06

h00kOh, no, I mean the LoCo talked about it14:27
h00knot you/I14:27
EgyParadoxoh ok14:27
EgyParadoxI thought in the US more people would attend events14:27
h00kIt's hard with Wisconsin being spread out14:27
EgyParadoxWhy?14:28
h00kWe seem to have some people interested in the Madison/Milwaukee area, but the further north you get, it's more spread-out14:29
EgyParadoxI thought its the other way aroujd14:32
EgyParadoxaround*14:32
EgyParadox?14:36
h00kEgyParadox: as in...?14:36
h00kI just sent an email out, a call for artwork14:36
EgyParadoxI thought it would be more spread in Madison/MIlwaukee14:38
h00kEgyParadox: there is more of a concentration down there14:38
h00kAs in, more people14:38
EgyParadoxoh ok14:38
