I've met devs in Vegas twice now, HV. Just met Emma and Justagirl a few months ago. It's the perfect place to host a meet up- so start planning! If only Vegas wasn't 8 hours away... although my sister lives there... lol 8 hours is not that far! Both TC and Justagirl were kind enough to fly to a place I was able to drive to. I'm always up for a dev meet up if we want to plan something again.

At 8 hours its probably cheaper to fly, as long as you plan far enough in advance. Vegas is the only place I travel to where it's rare for me to not see at least one other wheeler during my trip. And that's what I actually remember, so in reality it's probably 2-3 per trip.

Aw, you two - you do look like sisters! I still haven't met another dev - even after all this time. It's shocking really. :-( It IS shocking! :-(

I want to make a European Dev tour anyway. Inky will take us all in, you in? I know a great place in Copenhagen...

Oooh this sounds so fun, traveling all around Europe meeting devs. I'd love to drink with you Inky!

Don't forget the very South of Germany!! Pretty sure if this crew ever made it to Europe, no nation would be safe or shenanigan free. Lol

But seriously, it would be REALLY cool to have a little "dev convention" of sorts! We could decide on a meeting place and plan ahead and give people time to put together a plan. And then we could meet up, somewhere!
I've often thought of crazy ideas since being here on PD. One was to host a convention for the gathering of devs AND PWDs. But I had to think realistically, it may be hard for many PWDs to travel around to the meeting spot, so I had to scratch that idea. But a dev meet-up would be fantastic.

I don't think i've ever seen the elusive dev in the wild...maybe a few in captivity! Researchers have spent years in the jungle trying to capture Devs in mating season.

I do quite a bit of traveling for work and fun, so I'd love to try and meet up with some devs! Let's see... I'll be in Seattle in November, Paris in December, London in December, Edinburgh in December/January, Dublin in January, Chicago in February, and Denver next May. Anyone in and around those areas? I'm always up for drinks and a chat! Save

Definitely Denver in May, for me! I'll try to add Paris to my list too... heh.
I have selfish reasons for going to Denver, but a dev meet-up would be freaking awesome! I'm setting a reminder to ask about this again.

The dev Vegas trip a few years ago had a handful of PWDs I believe.

OK, I may be a newbie, but I just have to cast another vote for Paris ;-) It's been a while since I visited and I miss it...

I vote for Devs Doing Denver! Calaena and I also had an idea of devs watching para olympics together. Maybe we could organize and online chat while its going on or something like that.

I would love to do Denver! But I would have to make up an extreme lie to my parents since I'm in college and not totally on my own yet
