The Time Has Cometh Passeth
The Fanfest is only a couple of days away, so here are some pointers on what to do when you arrive in Iceland. When arriving at Keflavik airport, you need to find the FlyBus at the airport and take it to your hotel. The buses stop at most major hotels including Hotel Nordica and SAS Radisson Hotel Island.
We open the Media and
Community Center on Thursday, which is where you register for the conference and
get your access pass. It's located on the second floor of
Solon, at corner of Bankastraeti and Ingolfsstraeti in the
center of Reykjavik. Look for two blue EVE banners on the balconies, you won't
miss it!
You will also get additional information that you need on the Fanfest along with
meeting some of your fellow EVE Players and the Developers.
The Media and Communtity center will serve as the number one place to hang out
between scheduled events. There you can buy refreshments in all shape and form
and the center is equipped with computers so you can log on to EVE and check
your skill training and EVE-Mail.
