2002 GDC AI Programmer's Dinner

Hello Everybody:

For my first message here (cool site) I thought I should try to get some news out. It's been on my web site for a bit but a wider distribution is called for as we are getting closer to the event.

For the past several years we (myself, Eric Dybsand, and Neil Kirby) have been holding a big dinner for AI programmers at the Game Developer's Conference, and this year's conference (March 19 thru 23rd) is no exception. The Fifth Annual Game AI Programmer's Dinner will be held at the the Trieu Chau restaurant (a Chinese place down the road from the convention center) at 7:00 PM on 3/23/02. Price should run around $20 a person not including the bar (you're on your own there). I think it's a buffet-style of meal. Of course folks are welcome to order their own meals independently if they wish.

We expect that around 30-40 folks will show up and as I said the
average price will be anywhere from $20-$30 depending on what you rder, drink, and leave for a tip. (Note that we DO tip so you really ought to plan for it.) We'll let folks know more final details either through the Game AI site (below) or at the GDC AI roundtables. We're not RSVPing per se, but if you do plan to go I'd really appreciate you email me so we can try to keep tabs on numbers.

By the way, if you want to see pictures from previous gatherings you can do so at the site; click on the "Programmer's Dinners" link on the left and browse away.

Hope to see you there!

Sadly, I doubt I'll be able to make it... the university won't fund me to make the trip unless I present something, and I can but dream of flying over until I get a proper job :)

Next year is another story though!
