Name: "Feuerfuchs"
Age: 34
Gender: male
Location: Berlin, Germany, EUROPE
Transportation: plane, i do have a driver's license
Although it is not unlikely that i can make it to the USA in 2012 i'd rather not go unless the location is interesting. That means aside from the Brikopalypse event i would stay for a holiday of one or two weeks but i do not want to end up in the middle of nowhere...
Another possibility is to host a Brikwars event here in Berlin. Advantages include: Getting here by plane is easy and cheap from within Europe. Some people could consider coming by car. Food, drinks and accomodation aren't expensive neither. For your Lego needs, we've got the Lego Discovery Centre, the officially Lego store, two dedicated Lego stores where you can bricklink in real life, moar toy shops than you can visit. Aside from Lego and the usual tourist features Berlin is known for its clubs, bars and legendary nightlife. There is a reason the city is packed with (young) tourists all year. Last but not least you can get authentic "I'm in Berlin bitch!" shirts&stickers.
Personally I do have enough room to host battles for 2-3 players (think Peach Massacre of G.R. 20010 size) and i could accomodate like two or three people, too. If required larger space for playing could be rented at one of the multitude of gaming centres we have. Also in 2011 the "1000 Steine Land" convention will take place in Berlin during summer. This is one of the largest Lego conventions. Maybe we could piggyback that - if we convince the pacifist train builders that is... Last but not least, if i continue to buy as much Lego as i did up until now i will be able to provide an epic scenario/battlefield.
If you're not into metal you're not my friend.
