Lucky bastard!! :P

HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA

nice one Lee, you got another plug in ...........



and this one didn't cost $250k!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Who are you trying to kid?!?!?
Having hundreds of freeloaders drinking your alcohol doesn't a successful show make!! :rolleyes: Talk to me in a month about how much of that 'success' has actually translated into business :rolleyes:

But at least you are milking the bragging rights of a booth that cost quarter of a million dollars for all its worth, even if the only thing anyone remembers is the cost :okthumb:

There is a certain branding value to a booth if you're a new program and want to make a splash. Having a booth presents the image of being for real and having money to pay webmasters.

Of course, it could also mean you're forced to shave your ass off for a couple of months to recover the bill for the show.... B)

Shows are a necassary evil, and can be quite fruitful if done correctly, I agree the gaudy excess of yesteryear is no longer needed but a precense will certainly open your eyes to something new, and or revive an old acquaintance...

I think you get more bang for your buck from buying an ad here however though.

and on that note thanks to all that have signed up from here since we have ran our ad. and thanks to nick and gonzo for giving me such a good deal on it.
inabon tells me we have gotten more biz off this ad in 10 days than we did the whole first month we ran on GFY...

I would tell you the price but nick swore he would ban me if I discussed how much we paid.

certainly there is a revival of sorts in the works, and if you intend to live on laurels alone you will surely parish.

Yeah, we gotta talk about that Ron. My butt cheeks are still swollen. Though I have to admit I enjoyed it a little. :D

Btw, I see JMM reading this thread. Didn't know you were still alive, Jeff. :P

A long time friend who's been wanting to see the show since forever finally came to Vegas and I got to show him around. Everyone told him the same thing, that he should have seen it about five or six years ago. Got me thinking.

No cars, trucks, hummers, vipers, Austin Martins anywhere on the floor. No music blasting anywhere. No laser lights. No blimps. No search light things beaming logos on the ceiling. No bikini-clad nor nekkid womens ... being oiled up, jumping on trampolines, inside moon walk tents, riding bronco machines, wrestling or boxing in rings. No money grabs (where one stands in a cylinder grabbing money as it floats around.)

In many ways, very business like without the old carnie atmosphere. But in some ways, even I have to admit, while refreshing overall, a tad dull. The old feeling of something electric happening wasn't there. Guess it's the good and bad side of maturation and thinned herds. If it wasn't for the traditional flying tits at the end of the show, I might have wondered if I'd inadvertantly went to a convention for librarians.

That said, I'll still take it over the boat-peeing, window-breaking, punches-in-the-lobby, furniture-flying Florida shows. Just wondering if there isn't some way to combine business and excitement of the old days again. Right now it seems conventions either resemble a museum tour or Animal House, and that that electric something-in-between has been lost.

I heard that WRS had the hottest girls at their booth :awinky:

Yanno... I must say I agree... :inlove: :inlove:

I was on the show floor walking around with a friend of mine, and I saw the blue jumpsuits. I said "see, now that's a great outfit." Leaves something to the imagination... :okthumb:

I was with BT when he tried to pick one of em up, hahah ghe used this line " hey aren't you guys the miami dolphins cheeerleaders?" LOL LOL they laughed at us of course

Cannonball contest.... oops wait. Thats already been borrowed.

I hear ya, but one thing about Asia based companies, they value their honor and would not shave. They are very generous.

They will not even do business with a company with poor history. There are some aspects in their work ethic are NOT negotiable.

There is very few of us Americans with them, and its neat working at the Ops in LA, the American culture could learn so much from theirs.

The other thing I admire is they do everything inhouse, very seldom outhouse anything..they are very protective of their development.

They been around long time in VOD market and DVD market, they been shooting product for years. They are known for their JapanX line which includes anime etc.

In all honesty, where would they outsource to? LOL

The Asia Pacific is the only location for cheap outsourced work, if they outsourced to anywehre else they would actually lose money LOL

Tell Troy I said hello....

The entire company is in LA.

I walked the floor - no booth this time -I did do one at AVN which more then paid for itself.

Here's my gossip - sad but true -

I was leaving the WRS party (thank you Mack Daddy) and coming around the corner was my Dad and his girlfriend (74 and 60 respectively) they immediately announced they flew in from Dallas and got married, they had done it about 45 minutes before they saw me!! Talk about knock me down with feather.

Of course not two minutes later - my dad is asking if I could get him into the CumOnHerFace.com shoot..... Guess he got around the credit card ban I put in effect a few years ago on him.

Overall Internext is okay - but I find I really get more bang for my buck from the smaller shows like Cybernet Expo and Webmaster Access - more face to face time and ability to actually catch up with people.

But I do kinda miss the old days - open bar the whole time, etc.

The entire company is in LA. [/b][/quote]
Gotcha, So when you said it was an Asia based company, it wasnt ;)

Big hugs and a few shots all 'round!

I'll stick around... it's a good crowd here now! :okthumb:

Highlight of this show has been the Flu I brought back. I didn't start getting sick till monday, with a slight cough. Went home early, took tuesday off, and just finally feeling human again.

Highlight of the show was when I stole SE Guru's roundabout.

Ladies love those things!

Well, Nick's still here ... but CJs back and that averages him out.

Don't know how I missed you Ant, but wish I hadn't.

"Right now it seems conventions either resemble a museum tour or Animal House, and that that electric something-in-between has been lost."

Ok Drav - spill the beans - what is your idea of that "electric something in-between? I have been searching for it for a long time? It keeps changing.......

There's an open bar that follows me at all shows. ;-)

Ah, yeah. Dinner at the Y, baby!

I missed the open bar, AND the Open Buffet!

Sheesh!

Ant,

You in drinking phase or non drinking?

hey Colin, Ant just went home sick...poor guy is miserable! :(

I got sent home, I'd love to stay at the office, but something about getting the whole office sick, blah blah blah. I feel like a bus hit me, then got followed up by a few hundred chinese on their little bikes.

I had drinks once in Vegas, and it was at the Player's Ball. Vodka and Redbull were my friends.

From what Ive seen of the AEBN suite.....redbull and vodka werent your only friends.

I can rightly say, that they were my only friends. :)

Unless you were talking about the girls. Or Cuddly the morning after.

It comes down to how you decode my encode.

They are mostly all Asian, and based in LA. But they bring their work ethic and business sense from Asia to the US. They do everything inhouse and prefer to rely on their own development and products. They even purchased their own backbone ISP so as not to have to rely on a 3rd party for hosting.

They shoot and manage their own content, they build their own systems, they do all their own design, they are their own ISP...they are their own investment capital. This is all I am saying.

Never saw this much independence since you hit the boards! :-))

Trust me on this, I'd rather you not go through the pain that is living right now.

I haven't had anything to eat since Monday when it started.

Should be fine though soon. Fingers crossed.

i hear Steve was approached by Brad, with Brad having a camerman hide a few yards away, and tried to provoke Steve to fight/punch him.

Somehow Steve managed to walk away.

According to many people who have watched the video and seen both guys body language Brad looked extremely intimidated, whilst Steve leant in to Brad, who cowered away...


fancy that.
