Well, this was not the announcement we wanted to make. Due to issues with the venue not being prepared in time for our scheduled day for Vertex 1, Vertex will be postponed until further notice. We deeply apologize for the inconsistency with the start date of this new weekly.
Lastly, anyone who has already paid for their entry to Vertex 1 is entitled to a refund. If you have paid and would like to be refunded, please reach out in DMs or in the UGS Discord. Otherwise, your registration will remain until the event launches.
The realistic estimation that was given to us today is 6 weeks until the venue is ready. This could end up being 2 weeks sooner or later depending on how things progress. We'll provide a final update with pictures of the finished venue space once the venue is ready.
While it's frustrating that we've been given(and as a result, given you) 2 different dates for Vertex to be able to start, there's still a lot to look forward to with the venue. Mockups of the finished venue space and connected bar were shown to us, and we're sharing them below.
Let's have full transparency. We went to the venue today to check the progress of renovations and reconfirm that the venue would be ready for Friday. The pictures show the current state of the venue. If we could manage running in a half-finished space, we would, but we can't.
