Ah, you are right! 2010 was the Fan Faire. Thanks for the tip; I have made the correction.
In regards to the codename, Rich Waters had first used the term "EverQuest 'Next'" when he was referring to the future of the IP in the 10th Anniversary book. This hadn't, at the time, been intended as a code name but as it was the first anyone had heard about it, it caught on.
So I guess it's really a point of view thing. But we can also consider game developers as part of the gaming community (and a rather important one at that) so I went with that.
Thanks for the feedback!
Correct. Overall score is not an average.
Was a fun series. Thanks Bildo and Coyote.
Dammit Coyote. Ok, I get the humor and all, but after reading this I thought it was real and submitted MY resignation from aoc.tentonhammer.com. It was rather colorful. And now they won't let me take it back. CURSES TO YOU COYOTE SHARPTONGUE!
