Ok, well, unfortunately things didn't go quite as I had planned. I thought that there would be WiFi access in the main hall like there was last year, but, alas, there was not. So, I did not get to do any streaming, or posting for that matter, at this year's FanFaire. I did, however, get a lot of good photos, video and audio for posting. So, when I get all the video cleaned up, cut and put to some good music, I'll post it up. Also, I'll clean up the audio I have and post some it, too. I'll cut for sanity's sake because I've literally got hours of audio to go through.
So, in short, and for right now, FanFaire was a blast and I had tons of fun. We learned a lot of what is coming up and what to expect for the future of Vanguard. And, I will have to admit, I like the pink dragon, lol!
The progression of the little guy is actually quite neat. I've got some good video of the little guy (somewhere), I'll try and get that up pretty quickly. I'll explain it in short, if I can. Wyrmie (that's his name and you'll like it!) starts off as a little vanity pet. And when I say little, I mean little. He's shorter than a gnome, lol! Anyway. For every 10 levels that you progress from level 10, he will also grow. So, he starts off as a little guy at level 10 and and grows into the full, flying mount when you hit level 50. He is slower than the normal flying mounts, but he has hearts to make up for it. That's right, he has hearts. Plural. There are two little hearts on his hind thighs and one on his forehead. (You can thank Tiraslee for them.) Also, he leaves a neat little pink sparkly trail behind him as he flies! How awesome is that?!
Now, Silius and Tiraslee said that it would probably be a couple weeks before all those that registered/went to FanFaire will actually get this little guy because they are still working how the delivery system for him will work. Basically, they are deciding whether to use the /claim system or something else.
And, don't worry, I have TONS more to report and will do so with extras! So be sure to check and see the new stuff!
