I'm already heading over with a small group and we have yet to purchase our tickets to the conference, I'm wondering if we might have enough to make group discount worth it. And if you're looking for a cheap flight to the US you can head to LA and back on virgin for $1670 (<a href="http://www.virginaustralia.com/au/en/specials-offers/flight-specials/view-best-fares/" target="_blank">http://www.virginaustralia.com/au/en/specials-offers/flight-specials/view-best-fares/</a>) so you would just need a cheap transfer.<br>>>>>>>>> Additionally I need to promote the IGDA Scholarship Program. I was a recipient of it back in 2008 and the experience and networking I have received has been excellent. Applications are now open for 2012 (GDC, SxSW and PaxEast) and you can check things out here (<a href="http://www.igda.org/scholarships" target="_blank">http://www.igda.org/scholarships</a>).<br>>>>>>>>> Anyways, this has been your daily sponsored message ;)<br>>>>>>>>> Hope you're having a good one!<br>>>>>>>>> Jon<br>>>>>>>>> _______________________________________________<br>>>>>>>>> PIGMI mailing list - <a href="http://pigmi.org/" target="_blank">http://pigmi.org/</a> - <a href="mailto:pigmi@pigmi.org" target="_blank">pigmi@pigmi.org</a><br>>>>>>>>> Unsubscribe: <a href="http://lists.pigmi.org/listinfo.cgi/pigmi-pigmi.org" target="_blank">http://lists.pigmi.org/listinfo.cgi/pigmi-pigmi.org</a><br>>>>>>>><br>>>>>>>><br>>>>>>>> _______________________________________________<br>>>>>>>> PIGMI mailing list - <a href="http://pigmi.org/" target="_blank">http://pigmi.org/</a> - <a href="mailto:pigmi@pigmi.org" target="_blank">pigmi@pigmi.org</a><br>>>>>>>> Unsubscribe: <a href="http://lists.pigmi.org/listinfo.cgi/pigmi-pigmi.org" target="_blank">http://lists.pigmi.org/listinfo.cgi/pigmi-pigmi.org</a><br>>>>>>><br>>>>>>><br>>>>>>><br>>>>>>> --<br>>>>>>><o:p></o:p></p></div></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>>>>>>> Simon Boxer<br>>>>>>> Concept Artist<br>>>>>>> <a href="tel:%2B61%20401%20660%20286" target="_blank">+61 401 660 286</a><br>>>>>>> <a href="http://simonboxer.com" target="_blank">http://simonboxer.com</a><br>>>>>>><br>>>>>><br>>>>>><br>>>>>><br>>>>>> --<br>>>>>><o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>>>>>> Simon Boxer<br>>>>>> Concept Artist<br>>>>>> <a href="tel:%2B61%20401%20660%20286" target="_blank">+61 401 660 286</a><br>>>>>> <a href="http://simonboxer.com" target="_blank">http://simonboxer.com</a><br>>>>>><br>>>>>><br>>>>>> _______________________________________________<br>>>>>> PIGMI mailing list - <a href="http://pigmi.org/" target="_blank">http://pigmi.org/</a> - <a href="mailto:pigmi@pigmi.org" target="_blank">pigmi@pigmi.org</a><br>>>>>> Unsubscribe: <a href="http://lists.pigmi.org/listinfo.cgi/pigmi-pigmi.org" target="_blank">http://lists.pigmi.org/listinfo.cgi/pigmi-pigmi.org</a><br>>>>><br>>>>><br>>>>> _______________________________________________<br>>>>> PIGMI mailing list - <a href="http://pigmi.org/" target="_blank">http://pigmi.org/</a> - <a href="mailto:pigmi@pigmi.org" target="_blank">pigmi@pigmi.org</a><br>>>>> Unsubscribe: <a href="http://lists.pigmi.org/listinfo.cgi/pigmi-pigmi.org" target="_blank">http://lists.pigmi.org/listinfo.cgi/pigmi-pigmi.org</a><br>>>><br>>>><br>>>><br>>>> --<br>>>><br>>>> Simon Boxer<br>>>> Concept Artist<br>>>> <a href="tel:%2B61%20401%20660%20286" target="_blank">+61 401 660 286</a><br>>>> <a href="http://simonboxer.com" target="_blank">http://simonboxer.com</a><br>>>><br>>>><br>>>> _______________________________________________<br>>>> PIGMI mailing list - <a href="http://pigmi.org/" target="_blank">http://pigmi.org/</a> - <a href="mailto:pigmi@pigmi.org" target="_blank">pigmi@pigmi.org</a><br>>>> Unsubscribe: <a href="http://lists.pigmi.org/listinfo.cgi/pigmi-pigmi.org" target="_blank">http://lists.pigmi.org/listinfo.cgi/pigmi-pigmi.org</a><br>>><br>>><br>>> _______________________________________________<br>>> PIGMI mailing list - <a href="http://pigmi.org/" target="_blank">http://pigmi.org/</a> - <a href="mailto:pigmi@pigmi.org" target="_blank">pigmi@pigmi.org</a><br>>> Unsubscribe: <a href="http://lists.pigmi.org/listinfo.cgi/pigmi-pigmi.org" target="_blank">http://lists.pigmi.org/listinfo.cgi/pigmi-pigmi.org</a><br>><br>><br>><br>> --<o:p></o:p></p></div><p class=MsoNormal>> <<a href="http://simonboxer.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/SBLogoemail.jpg" target="_blank">http://simonboxer.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/SBLogoemail.jpg</a>><o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal><br>> Simon Boxer<br>> Concept Artist<br>> <a href="tel:%2B61%20401%20660%20286" target="_blank">+61 401 660 286</a><br>> <a href="http://simonboxer.com" target="_blank">http://simonboxer.com</a><br>><br>><br><br>-- <o:p></o:p></p></div><p class=MsoNormal>Paul Turbett<br>Black Lab Games<br><a href="http://www.blacklabgames.com.au" target="_blank">www.blacklabgames.com.au</a> | <a href="http://www.twitter.com/blacklabgames" target="_blank">www.twitter.com/blacklabgames</a><br><br>_______________________________________________<br>PIGMI mailing list - <a href="http://pigmi.org/" target="_blank">http://pigmi.org/</a> - <a href="mailto:pigmi@pigmi.org">pigmi@pigmi.org</a><br>Unsubscribe: <a href="http://lists.pigmi.org/listinfo.cgi/pigmi-pigmi.org" target="_blank">http://lists.pigmi.org/listinfo.cgi/pigmi-pigmi.org</a><o:p></o:p></p></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></div></body></html>
