MCM PaxAUS stand

[Vented]

Hold on - Don't Press disagree yet

I'm a local who has recently moved from Asia to Melbourne and I'm Hella excited for PEX. I haven't really been in much gaming events because I'm not the oldest person (mcm signup age is not true). I've been to one gaming event and I helped a small stand to setup and it felt great.

I was in the shower a few days ago and I thought imagine a PEX aus Stand for mcm. I know I know that it costs some money but it would be a good way to attract new users, show off what's happening in the community and the unlimited experiences you can have on MCM.

Mick is from Perth last time I checked and Melbourne is a quick flight or a nice road trip (Ive been on a roadtrip from Darwin to Newcastle) and going with a few friends and a bunch of volunteers who live in Melbourne or would visit Melbourne would Hella have fun being at the stand


Please tell me issue with this idea before dissagring!

I doubt people would know what MCM is in Australia and go there for it. Even though I love MCM and all, it doesn't seem like the right move. As Mick might lose money if he sets up a booth.

The suggestion is ridiculous, and I highly doubt this would ever happen. The people that go to PAX aren't really MCM's target audience, and for the amount of money that it would cost, it wouldn't really benefit them. There would be much more effective and better ways to advertise if you used the money somewhere else.

Unfortunately this is still the case. Although MC-Market is a community of ~140,000 members, that's still not that much when you consider that only a couple thousand regularly go on the site each day or with any sort of regularity.

Maybe if MCM was 100x the size and had 100x the revenue it'd be worth it for us to go to a convention in some official capacity, but until then this isn't something that interests me or has any benefit.

Denied, thanks of the suggestion.
