Greetings everyone!
I'm brand new to the idga forums, and was suprized to see a Calgary chapter when I signed up! However, it seems to be fairly inactive, so I thought I'd start a new thread to see who's out there!
I personally am currently a 3rd/4th year student in game design at the UofC, and I'm trying to learn as much as I can about the industry before I start applying for internships and the like early next year.
With that being said, is anyone else out there? I'd love to organize a meet-and-greet in the comming months to see who's actually active in the Calgary area!

Well, I'm fairly active on this forum, or at least I check it often and make the occasional post. However, I'm not technically in the Calgary area right now, lol. I'm going to school in Dallas at the Guildhall @ SMU. I'll be graduating in June and coming back to Calgary to find a job. It seems to have been pretty quiet over the last year there unfortunately, but hopefully it will pass. I know posts on here have picked up slightly (from zero to "some") so that's encouraging, and I have heard that Level Up Society is going through some sort of change or re-vamp sometime soon. Hopefully they will start organizing some events again in Calgary.
Anyways, I'll be in town in December over Christmas and new-year and it would definitely be cool to get some people together.
At the very least, hopefully we can spur some more people to start posting on here
