Calling All Player Panelist Hopefuls!
SOE LIVE Player Panel submissions are OPEN!
The biggest hit of SOE Live last year was the inclusion of player panels for the first time. We loved ’em, YOU loved ’em, and they’ll be back for 2013! We’ll have panels on Friday, Saturday, and now Sunday as well!
We are looking for panels on any subject that will be of interest to SOE Live attendees. Here are some suggestions to get you started:
- Managing a Guild
- Guild Leaders Support Group
- How to run a raid without losing your mind
- L337 gameplay tactics (in any SOE game!)
- How to win in PvP
- Roleplay in the 21st century
- Running an in-game event
- Cosplay tips and tricks
- Why SKs are overpowered (just kidding!)
- Player Studio
- Fan Sites
- Livestreaming – how to!
- Making videos
- Fan Art and/or Fan Fiction
- Mastering the art of… ?
- Another amazing topic that we’ve never thought of!
ABOUT TIME! How long do we have?
We are accepting panel submissions NOW, and until midnight Pacific Daylight Time, May 31st. We’ll accept as many panels as we have room for, and will complete the selection process by mid-June. Spaces are NOT first-come, first-served, so spend plenty of time on your submission to make sure we have all the information needed!
WHAT’S IN IT FOR ME?
Fame! Notoriety! Adoration of the Devs! We’re also throwing in a free All Access pass to SOE Live for panelists. We do NOT cover meals, transportation, add-ons (like the Dev Brunch), nor, regrettably, beer.
If you or your panelists have already bought your SOE Live pass, we will credit you for it if your panel is chosen for the event.
SO HOW DOES THIS WORK?
How many people on a Panel?
One to four people total per panel. Choose, but choose wisely! NO, you can’t put your whole guild on a panel for free passes, but nice try!If you need help?
If you need a moderator/host to pose questions to your panel, we’d be happy to provide one!What tools will we have?
We’ll have a PC (with PowerPoint, speakers, and video capability) and display screen in every session room, so if you have a presentation to go with your panel, you can bring your laptop or put your presentation on a USB stick. We’ll also provide microphones so that you don’t have to yell… unless you want to. We can even provide hecklers if you like!Note: Your session MAY be photographed or recorded. You are in the spotlight! Comb your hair (optional), calm your nerves, and enjoy!

heh that’s me in the blue hat. =)
Get a haircut,hippy 😉
Did you think you’re going to get sites like Dragon’s Armory and EQ2U from clean shaven guys in suits? 😉
OMGWTFBBQ = win!
Lol, wife likes the long hair too much, ain’t cutting it. It’s actually a bit longer now.
Made me chuckle too, although in Dwarven speak shouldn’t this actually be something along the lines of…
“What in the name of Brell is cooking on the forge?!!?”
abbreviated to… WITNOBICOTF?!!?
I don’t get the omgwtfbbq reference,tho we did have a person briefly join our guild by that name years back…
Actually “OMGWTFBBQ Outta Here!” is my Ranger’s Evac message.
My Dirge’s Evac message is “If you have anything terribly important to do, too late!”
Nah,but then I’d never expect someone 12 feet tall either 😉
You’re like,a pale Shaq,from my perspective..I’d look you straight in the bellybutton lol
That’s me standing next to the giant.
I still don’t get it,tho I do like the dirge one.Here’s me with a Logitech kb programmable for 3 games,and the matching mouse,and after 7+ years,I have yet to make a single macro. Hell,I have to type “Lifeburn” during raids.Someday I should figure out macros
one of our wizards had something like ‘group hug time, evac incoming’
my bard has ‘we are about to die, i’m getting out of here’
another one of my toons has ‘brown pants time, i’m leaving to get them changed’
i expect there would be a lot of funny evac messages.
Time to get back on topic. I suggest the following as conversation starters:
1. This room is awfully small for any reasonable quorum of players.
2. Not a skinny person in sight!
3. WTF is up with that hat with shells and crap?
4. Precursor to RP orgy?
My bard sings a funny song about himself as he evacs. Think Monty Python and the Holy Grail, and brave brave brave Sir Robin.
The funny part me to is that I can’t refrain from actually singing the evac song when I press the button.
1. I notice Dethdlr appears to be sitting with an attractive woman in a skimpy top.
2. I think the hat is a cosplay item for an othmir costume.
3. Don’t be mean to the fluffy people.
@Kwill: I think you meant Dedith. He’s the one sitting in the blue hat. I’m the one standing up there next to Feldon.
The attractive woman to the right is my wife, whom thanks you for the compliment!
Mine was “Keep your arms and legs inside for the full duration of the ride”
Have to jump on the evac message bandwagon.
Trueflight’s is “Screw You Guys, I’m Going Home”
My Troub Latesh’s is “I’m getting out of here before I get blamed for this”
