Leipzig = Games Convention!

[qantaqa]

Yep~
Since games-catcher.de is online again I gotta post the entry I actually wanted to post last week.

GAMERS on my friendslist XD; and also all other people who're interested in this - LISTEN, LISTEN, YO~

The Games Convention (GC), one of the most popular events of this kind in the whole world was taken from Leipzig.
2008 will be the last year, the GC will take place in Leipzig.
2009 it shall elide to Cologne.

In my opinion it's an impudence o_O
Leipzig raised the GC, was the only town in Germany, that took the risk of inventing such a fair and now, when the GC became this popular, the BIU (organisation for interactive entertainment in Germany) left Leipzig behind, because there were "too less possibilities in infrastructure, too less hotels, bla bla bla".
LIE!

www.games-catcher.de an information site for gamers, made a petition, which shall be given to the CEO of the BIU at this year's Games Convention.
I would be forever thankful if you'd sign this petition.
I donnu if it will change something, but at least I wanna do something. And I ask you to help a little.
The petition can be found HERE
PLEASE HELP!

Obgleich Köln für mich näher dran ist, die GC soll in Leipzig bleiben Oo;
NRW hat schon die Essener Spielemesse!
(Ich wollte zwar dieses Jahr erstmalig dahin, aber dennoch... GC = Leipzig)

Eeeh, I don't know much about GC and last year was my first to attend it ever. So I have just this one impression I got there, but from my point of view.... the thing with the infrastructure is true x___x It was the first time ever I got into a train and didn't find a seat because everytwhere... game nerds x__x; The closer we got to Leipzig, the worse it became x__x

Anyway, as a city I don't like Cologne too much, it looks very unfriendly compared to Leipzig, ne~ ... but since it's an indoor convention it doesn't really matter °_°;

I don't think this petition will change anything in the end, but at least it shows that not everyone's satisfied with it x3 Ganbatte anyway! *pats*
