Kinda pro-pluralist, kinda anti-Bay EA.
I have come here to extend the principle of charity to bad criticisms of EA and kick ass. And I’m all out of charity.
(my opinions are fully my own, and do not represent the views of any close associates or the company I work for)
A side consideration—assuming a UK-based EAGx is being planned for next year, perhaps that could be planned to co-incide with holidays from UK univerisites, and perhaps be more favourable from applications from students who wanted to attend/apply to EAG London 2024 but didn’t for the reason Oliver states?
[ aside: I know organising events isn’t an easy thing, just want to make it clear this is more of a consideration rather than a demand :) ]
