We finally finish and test the 6 8K editors, 1 CPU build....
 
 

Didn't see u back there! 

I appreciate Louis' community post clarifying that we did, in fact, agree to cover his girlfriend's airfare once he explained the situation.
 
Hopefully that's helps clarify things. 

I just fired a quick email over to Louis with some points that he left out of his explanation for some reason. 
 
I hope he plans to clarify what happened fairly soon. 

This photo marks the moment. I'm so happy being part of it.
 
 

I never got the chance to say goodbye to or thank some of the people I met at LTX, some of whom saved my poor butt this weekend. I am TERRIBLE with names, but if you helped me get food, pay for parking, lent me an ethernet cable, kept me company, gave me snacks, talked to me in lines, got me Madrinas, or anything else, please shout out here so I can say thank you! I had an absolute blast this weekend but were it not for the kindness of these people I met, these people who were literally strangers to me, I would not have been able to enjoy it nearly as much. Seriously, I am so grateful to everyone that helped me in any way this weekend.
 
I also want to say a huge thank you to @CPotter and @RILEYISMYNAME for just being so gosh dang nice and easy to talk to about everything. And the rest of the LMG staff for pulling off such an insane event so well. I hope you all get a good few days to rest and recover and I cannot wait to see what you do next year.
 
I also hope to see more familiar faces next year, and if you were one of the people who helped me out this year I owe you dinner or something.

Yeah we learned a lot about meet and greets this year. It was our first time doing them in an official capacity, so our first implementation was pretty idealistic and less than ideal.
 
The plan for next year should be something like this:
 
- Dedicated lines for each creator from the beginning.
- Time limits from the beginning
- Way more volunteers to monitor time, ensure that no one is trying to sneak into the line, and try to provide time estimates for those entering the line(s)
 
I think these 3 things would solve the majority of the issues that we had. Great to hear that it was much smoother once we implemented the time limits this year.
 
Thanks for coming & hope we see you again next year!

I don't know why he's complaining really, it's a fair deal if you ask me. If his girlfriend wanted to attend then she's just another standard attendee at the show, Louis would have obviously been the main man that the other attendees cared about rather than his girlfriend (not being rude). If he believes ticketing plus extras should be covered for anyone else he'd like to take, then he's completely bonkers to think that.

Good points for both sides! I guess I just get upset when people go on the record without knowing the facts first. Either way I'm just happy that so many creators are attending!

I don't know who this is but he seems like an idiot... of course they can't pay for you and everyone you "care about" to come. They have alot of creators attending. Adding +1's would cost a lot of money.

Decided to go big or go home. Brought my girlfriend along so I built a micro atx Threadripper 1900x system with 32GB of ddr4 that I split into two gaming vm's using Unraid. My half of the system gets an rtx 2080 and her half gets an rx 480.

Look for a young short hair guy in an LTT hoodie that'll be me

Oh I didn't notice that.  0800 is fine with me I just figured people would already be awake considering the jet lag. 
 
Edit: I arrived in Vancouver yesterday, stayed up until 2200 and only slept 5 and a half hours.  

hey guys, I've been talking about this a lot in the Discord but I thought I'd share it on the form as a way to archive it to the internet. A number of months ago people started talking about LAN shelves. At the time I have no idea what they were but I started looking into them and thought it would be fun to bring one to LTX. A few weeks later I was thinking about it and realized that since my boss just bought a plasma cutter table I could make something really cool out of steel. A couple more weeks went by and I made up a blueprint to cut it out with. I then figured out I could fit two of them on a 4-ft by 8-ft sheet of steel and figured they'd be decently strong from 10 gauge material (it turned out that 10 gauge was great. It's a bit on the heavy side but this thing is freaking invincible. You can stand on it jump on it do whatever you want and it'll be perfect). a few weeks later I bought that sheet of steel for about $165 and here we are now a couple days after that and a few days before LTX and I got to cut it out. There was an error in cutting one of the pieces out so I only ended up with one usable LAN shelf which is unfortunate but it's still enough for just me, maybe I'll make more to sell next year. Anyway I think it looks great, tell me what you guys think. The top photos are all of what I made and the photo at the bottom is the LAN shelf I got my inspiration from. Feel free to ask questions. Originally I was going to powder coat it LMG orange but I didn't have time for that in the end. I'm not really disappointed though because I still think it looks pretty dang awesome just as raw steel. The best part is it isn't welded together at all, it just is all slid together. With that all the pieces come apart so it's flat and easy to store and transport, but once it's put together it's damn near invincible.
 
Please do correct me if I'm wrong but looking around the internet I can't find any other steel LAN shelf so I'm going to claim this to be the internet's first steel LAN shelf.

Tall balding british guy, that's me wandering around Samesun I'm not hard to spot haha

If you DM @Infensus he can can add you to a facebook messenger group we have for Samesun. There are 4 of us in it now. I wont be there until tomorrow night, around 10:30.

We can also use the LTT Discord's LTX channel

I'm down! I'm NA, so other regionals would be awesome. I'd like to do raids together as well. 

Hey guys!
 
So as some of you may know, last Wednesday we created and released an Official LTT Discord to the Floatplane sub-forum. We wanted a bit of breathing room and time to fix bugs with permissions, work out rules, and other things before going ahead with a public launch. It seems like we've worked out most of the kinks so we're going ahead and launch this to you awesome peeps over here in the forum and our socials before later expanding to our YouTube community.
 
There's already more than 4000 people on the server but this is still a "soft launch" for now. Eventually you'll probably start hearing "and check our Discord server @ discord.gg/ltt" at the end of videos, but for now we're just publishing it here, and on social platforms.
 
Join the Discord!  
 
PLEASE NOTE: Your Discord account MUST have a verified phone number to chat at all. We also recommend link your forum account to the discord! There is also some exclusive Floatplane member chat rooms, as well as automated notifications for video releases (the floatplane rank will sync when you link accounts).
 
Enjoy,

No cloakrooms or anything like that sadly.  

From what I understand in doing research, most places will accept USD but there will be a surcharge for conversion to CAD. Your best bet is to get your currency exchanged before leaving at your local bank/credit union. ATMs and banks both in canada and at the airport will have much higher conversion rates.

I set up a discord.

I created a discord so we can meet up for raids.
