I'd just like to extend a huge, warm THANK YOU to everyone that was a part of the Digital Press team, and especially to the 3 organizers. Joe, John and Sean made me feel instantly welcome and I cannot even begin to thank them enough for all of their generosity and goodwill. THANK YOU !!!
I also greatly enjoyed meeting people like Ian, Dave, Tim and Al for the first time, as each of them added different and distinct levels of depth (and color) to a hobby that has already taken me to several different countries and introduced me to some of my best friends.
As a first time attendee I personally found the Museum awe inspiring and all of the Keynote Speeches that I attended riveting. It was amazing to meet so many key people and to see so many rare games, and the auction encompassed items from so many different decades that there was something for everyone.
Aside from this I really enjoyed trading and playing games (anyone for Warlords? :-D ) with a great bunch of like-minded people that I hope to see more of over the coming months and years now that I am living in America.
Finally, as an ex-European games collector, player and BritMeet/EuroCon attendee/co-organizer I can sincerely say that the event was everything I had expected it to be, and more, and I look forward to being an integral part of the DP family next year in Las Vegas.
THANKS GUYS,
John Christovassilis

I'll second that. I bugged John, Sean and Joe to personally thank them before I made my exit on Sunday. I am HOOKED. When's the next one? And can we make it 4+ days long? :D

The expo was so amazing this year, it really is getting better and better every year. Thanks Drex, Jaime, Kristine, Tim, everybody else (sorry if I forgot you, but I'll always remember you!), and I would like to also especially like to thank Joe, for making me feel right at home! And with so many new games, trivia and electronic and everything else (except next year I hope G4 won't interfere with the Family Feud again. :evil: ) I hope to see all you guys next year! (And don't worry, I'll be working on my Warlords game, and this time, I won't be first to go constantly :angry: :D ;) )

It's great to read all of these quick summaries and recaps. I'm glad you felt "at home", Kevin - I was uncharacteristically tough on people Friday so that everything would run as planned for vendors and alumni, I hope I made up for it after the doors opened to all on Saturday!
OK really, I gotta get to my own recaps!
