Haven't seen any official announcement but last year's invites went out on 7/2, all quiet this year.

Yeah, I haven't seen any evidence of it.

Too bad.  It was a nice respite from the craziness.

So was Conival 2.0 for us common folk.  The person who put it together told me that they wanted it to be Wired Cafe for everyone.  Since it was a bit away from the convention center it was never overflowingly full, even when Paul Bettany was there.  The free food and open bar, places to sit and a clean bathroom made it a great place to chill between running around.  But since there's been no word of it, it seems it won't be happening again this year.  It seems like a lot of offsites aren't happening.  It's an offsite lull.

Awesome.  But it doesn't seem close to the same.  It sounds like they will have a photo op inside the greater Borderlands Offsite.  Last year, they ran the whole place with panels, free food and open bar.  It really was like the second incarnation of Conival. Just more plush and intimate.  Last year they did have other people within their offsite.  So it was like a mini exhibit hall floor.  Sounds like this year, they will be one of those other people.

Looks like they are having a karaoke bus instead of a cafe
