Sladysh - I can also get to Moscow - and from there, we can even travel by cart - let Pechen Dusta think about that :D I can meet all of you - and then we can be picked up )))) just as an option, if needed.

A question for those living in Moscow. How do you plan to get to St. Petersburg? Train/car/minibus? (although the latter worries Dust's liver a lot). There is a possibility that the Siberians will only buy tickets to Moscow, and then travel together. Let's discuss it, maybe in ICQ.

I personally will take the train - in my opinion, this is the ideal option. We leave around 10 pm and arrive in the morning, have breakfast near the station, and then go to the base. As far as I remember, tickets need to be bought 45 days in advance.

Stepa, I have no doubt that you might be picked up. Especially if Aive joins you on the way back.

I personally prefer traveling by train – in my opinion, it's the ideal option. We left around 10 PM and arrived in the morning, had breakfast near the station, and then went to the base. As far as I remember, tickets need to be booked 45 days in advance.

What's the price like? I glanced at the website, and the prices are quite different. There's a train that takes 4 hours, but it costs as much as a plane ticket!

The cost is 1300-1700 rubles one way for a sleeper car. In my opinion, flying is inconvenient for Muscovites – you have to get to the airport in Moscow or St. Petersburg, and if you fly in the morning, you have to wake up at an ungodly hour. A train is simpler in this regard – you get on the train in the evening, have a couple of drinks, and wake up in St. Petersburg, right in the city center. The main thing is to buy tickets in advance so that everyone can get seats together. Otherwise, there will be friction with fellow passengers about who sits where and puts their bags. Update: I looked at the approximate prices, and it seems that if you book in advance, the plane and train are roughly the same price. Personally, I find the train more convenient for several reasons, but for people from Siberia with a connecting flight, the plane might be more convenient so they don't have to travel from the airport to the train station if they can successfully coordinate their flights. That's the situation. Moreover, in the evening, there can be terrible traffic jams when entering Moscow. Public transport involves transfers (getting from the airport to the train station by public transport costs about 100-200 rubles per person), a taxi costs about 1000 rubles per car if ordered by phone (and it's significantly more expensive if you take a taxi from the drivers at the airport), and the Aeroexpress costs 470 rubles per person.

I want to come as a spectator and help with the organization))) I will take photos/videos of everything and then I can share the materials with everyone + post a separate article on heroes3.tv about the CIS region.
I was at Aurora, the nature there is beautiful, and the rooms are decent.
I have 2 questions:
1. Are there people who are going there with their wives/children?
2. Since I'm from St. Petersburg, I can help with the organization, for example, I can bring a large TV, set it up in the conference room, and display the online tournament table on it. We can also organize an online broadcast + I have a few more ideas.

Organizers, please add me as a friend, I will help in any way I can: https://vk.com/id1042326

We got in touch and chatted.

I'm now in the CIS region :D

I ended up on the CIS server :D

Is this not a joke? :D

The members of the Academy don't lie.

Is there an announcement for this event in a formatted way? I want to post it here: http://vk.com/heroesworld

Are we going to get drunk in the minibus? ;)

an interesting question – getting drunk in a minibus
if you're riding in it for less than a day
but if the minibus is coming from Siberia
it's faster and easier – quick, quick, harakiri

I would really like to go, but I can’t say for sure yet.

Yesterday, Falcon and I went to the base office. They should send me the updated estimate next week, and I'll immediately edit the first post to include all the information.

I'm heading to the CIS region :D

This is no joke - I bought a ticket for the minibus! :D :D :D



Also, 2 more guys from Siberia will be traveling with me in the minibus! :)
