Thanks to all those who made the Q&A chat, if you couldn't make it you can read the chat log here:
http://forum.alanwake.com/files/remedy_qna_chat.txt (thanks to Jokke_r for this)

Great news everyone! We have secured a time and place to hold our live Q&A chat with Remedy and it's all going down next Wednesday 20th of January at 2pm GMT.

Here are the details for everyone:

When: Wednesday 20th January
Time: 2pm GMT (You can see what time it is for you here)
Place: #brightfalls on irc.quakenet.org

If you don't have an IRC client you can use the Quakenet webchat to join. Simply go to http://webchat.quakenet.org/ and enter your username in the nickname field and #brightfalls in the channels field.

If you don't know how to use IRC then head over to the following links to learn more about it:

http://www.quakenet.org/faq/
http://www.irchelp.org/

A really popular IRC client for Windows is mIRC which you can download at http://www.mirc.com/

Also we understand that this time doesn't suit everyone, we apologise if you can't make it. We will be providing a chat log at the end of the session up on this site.

2pm GMT would mean it'll be 6am in San Francisco, 8am in Dallas, 9am in Toronto, 2pm in London, 10pm in Perth and 1am in Sydney. So we're managing barely to cover most of the world within at the very least optimal times.

The chat will function like so:

The #brightfalls room itself will be moderated during the Q&A, this means only me and Remedy staff participating will be able to talk. If you want to ask a question you will need to send the question that you will be asking to me either via private message on these boards (if you do it this way please use the same nickname you use here on the chat) or private message me in IRC at the start of the Q&A session. I will then choose people at random who have relevant questions (ie questions that haven't been answered already), to talk to Remedy. To do so you will be given 'voice status' and you will be able to talk freely in the channel.

That's it.

Hopefully everything run's smoothly (I'll try my best!) and I hope to talk to you all there!

Oh in addition we will also be giving out an Alan Wake t-shirt and flashlight during the chat as well

[AnttiApina]

Nice! I'll be sending questions for you, since I won't be able to participate in the chat.

Not a problem at all.

I suggest anyone that can't make it that want questions answered PM me here with their questions and I can ask it for you.

Please note in your PM that won't be making it as well though.

[JTX]

If we submit questions but can't make the chat will we still be able to have a chance to win the flashlight and t-shirt?

Unfortunately not, but there's always more chances in the future as we hold more competitions

[JTX]

Thats cool...thanks.

[WakeLestat360]

Good, i will be there

[GENE_BC]

2pm GMT is 5.30pm Over here and that's fit to me. great!

[WakeLestat360]

Gene, can i ask you a favor?

I don't know how to see what time will be here, on Brazil...can you see this for me? Thank you

[sidetwo]

It'll be 12pm your time.

There's a great time converter here if you need to find out what time it'll be on in your timezone:
http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html

Just set the top line to say - Day: 20 Month: January Year: 2010 Hour: 14 / 2pm Minutes: 00
Leave the first location as "UTC / GMT"

Then select your location below that.

[WakeLestat360]

oh ADM, thank's.. Yes, 12pm it's perfect for me...

So, i will be there \o/

[BxB402]

Sweet. 8am central standard time...I'm always up around now(it's 10am NOW).

Yeah, that's how ADM said.

another way: double click the watch on toolbar of the windows, in opened window go to " time zone" tab. There you can see the difference of your location's time against GMT

[cubanito305]

So that would be like 10:00 or 11:00 AM Eastern time, I think? If that's the time then I won't be able to make it. I will be in college at that moment. Damn I wanted that flashlight.

[One Eyed Jack]

Hmm, I'll be at work then. But around 3 pm, there's usually not a lot going on. Maybe I can make it.

*Licks hand and sticks it in an outlet so the shock will get her heart pumping again*

9 AM on a school day, huh? Bah, oh well. I'll PM you any questions I can think of some time this week, then, I guess.

And I'm assuming you'll post the whole conversation somewhere here afterward, of course?

[BxB402]

I have a Q, ADM. So when this starts should we just PM you One question at a time on IRC or All the ones we have? I have a few prepared already.

Also, it sounds like messaging you the question first is acting as a sort of filter, then we get voiced and can ask Remedy the question you OK'ed ourselves. Is this correct?

[sidetwo]

Kitt: Yep no worries, I of course will be posting the whole conversation on the forums afterwards.

BxB402: That's correct to both questions. As for how many questions you can ask RMD, it all depends on the number of people asking questions. If there's a lot unfortunately it can only be one question per person.

[BxB402]

Yes for One at a time or for all at once? lol

Cool. This oughtta be fun.

[AnttiApina]

Just sent dozens of questions for ADM.

[Demite]

I'll be there.

Its business time.

[GENE_BC]

Is flashlight for someone who asks the best question( like last year that someone won that poster) or just for lucky one who takes part in the event?

Well I guess the lucky one, I'll hold a simple little competition right at the end of the Q&A where the first one to answer a question wins.

[WakeLestat360]

WOW...

So, i will be fast, very fast, just like my heroe when i was a children, Sonic The Headghog

hahaha

EDIT : And ADM, will be the Flashlight + Shirt or separeted?

[sidetwo]

Yep seperate. 2 people will have a chance to win.

Then I'll have to ask them FIRST when I get in there, since Greece Time is in the same time zone as the RMD's time..

[BxB402]

Looks like i'll need to put my thinking cap on in the early morning of Wednesday.

It's the first one to ANSWER a question, not ask. I will be asking 2 questions at the end of the Q&A and whoever answers each question (correctly) first wins. Of course it's one different winner per question.

Aha. Then I'll have to wait for those questions and to answer them properly.

[djshauny1]

If it's 2pm at London, then I have time to eat something, since Greece Time's 3pm here.

[Kitt]

Aw, guess I won't get to compete for them prizes since I can't make it. Oh well- I still have my poster!

It'd be 4pm for you as Greece is GMT + 2.

[AnttiApina]

Poster ?

Lucky girl...

[WakeLestat360]

Very lucky girl...

[BxB402]

Pfffft, she only got a poster cause she's pretty. I know how it works. Good looking women always get free stuff from us men.




EDIT: Weird, Deja Vu moment. I was typing this exact same thing above. Damn random psychic dream events.

In 20 years, this poster will be valuable
