Expensive entry fee.

Lol yeah. $275, and $375 after May 15. That's a lot. And then RHY3756547 would have to pay another thousand dollars just for a plane ride  tongue

Another reason why not to go...

If Scratch is free, why do they need so much money from Scratchers? If Scratch is free, shouldn't the events be/almost be?

its not that bad for a conference lol  i think it may be average conference price, iy might be alot less though.

It depends. But I've paid a lot less (around $60 to $150) for some conferences. $275 and $375 are out of my price range. Add in travel fees and possibly visiting accomodations and it becomes a bit of a pricey trip.

Definately. Paying a bit, like you mentioned, is an ok, but it's quite a lot in that situation.

Maybe they know that everybody wants to go, so when theres high demand, and small quantity, the price goes up  yikes

Well, it is mostly for educators, and I guess they are willing to invest in the future!

Yea, I went to the 2008 one. :3

OMG U DID?

Why didn't you go to the scratch meetup or scratch day then? :3

I live too far away. The only reason I went to the conference was because it was during Summer, when I have holidays. :3


http://i52.tinypic.com/5es7t0.png I know what you're thinking! "Neptune! Get rid of those filthy advertisements and give us back the Zarathustra siggy, you horrible person!" Well, don't worry about it, the Zara siggy will be back soon, new and improved! ^^ Meanwhile, just do what the sig tells you to. >.>

Re: There is going to be a Scratch Conference this summer!
