My first trip out of the country (37 years old) will be to LTX!  Bringing my daughter who wants to meet Linus I think more than even me.  ??

Ticket prices/options? Was considering as a Christmas gift but it'd be nice to have a specific "here's what you're getting" rather than "I'll get you... something."

Nice, now if my company doesn't book the Playland family day on the same day like they did last year I might actually be able to attend.  I work just down the street from LMG so I'll be sure to say hi to my neighbors :)

It's dreamhack, so it should be plenty fast.  They also use caching servers to speed up downloads.

I don't live far from Vancouver and my consumer internet is 300/300 and upgradable up to 950/750. 

I'm sure they'll have something nice and fast.

The only part about LTX that i hate right now, is that its the weekend after San Diego comicon (Again), and i cant afford to do both :( I was really hoping this year it would be at least a few weeks between the two.

 

Oh well, maybe next year.

I really want to go this year but I need a to know if is even a date to when the tickets are going on sale since I'm from Portugal and I have to book a flight and hotel (and is not cheap) if some one of the staff see this please respond.

But it was really cool if 2020 was on Europe.
