Slim30

Taking the train up from Warwick, Rhode Island. Shooting for the 7:15 train so I can get there in time for the Microsoft tweetup

Biggums

Driving from Charleston, WV. I thought that was a long drive until I looked on the map.

I am sure this is a total long-shot, but I suppose that it's worth asking.

Is there anyone from Georgia (or even the surrounding area) that is going to PAX East that might be looking to actually drive up to Boston? Yeah, I know, crazy. Right now a flight is sort of out of my budget, so I am hoping I find someone who is going that I can split the drive cost with. Right now, I have a hotel booked from Thursday the 10th and checking out Monday the 14th.

Just let me know!

There undoubtedly has to be some SCAD kids going if you're near or know anyone from Savannah. Maybe try Sav's craigslist? I don't know anyone still in that area or I'd try to be of more help..

HarpuaScorpio

Added. South Jersey will be well-represented up in Boston.

psychopez

Was driving, but car problems mean I'm flying up on Thrusday from Pittsburgh, PA, around noonish on Southwest, in fact. Any other 'Burghers gonna be in the airport around that time?

Lelldorianx

Hmm, my mark keeps disappearing. Apparently I'm a total noob at editing maps Regardless -- good luck to the guy driving from GA; I hope you have some amazing gas mileage!

Not sure if this was the problem (maybe because I was being an idiot, as always) but there are multiple pages with marks. It took me a few minutes to realize I wasn't on the first page.

Yup, that "fixed" my problem at least. My "problem" being Silly Goosery.

redshoepaul

I'm coming from Boston, so depending on the weather, I'll probably bike with a friend. It's only 15 minutes away roughly from me.

Ludington, MI. My drive is longer haha-- Aww now I'm sad.

Moe Fwacky

Should've taken the PAX Train

UEAKCrash

Yeah I didn't know there was a line going up there when our original plans were made because the main map didn't have it. But oh well, ride secured.

Demonia105

Added mine! (Was another person that didn't realize the pages thing. Haha.)

Coming from the middle of Long Island, grabbing an early train on the 10th to Penn and grabbing the 6:55 Acela over to South Station. I wanted to go on to the Pax line, but I wanted to get in early for a bit of a rest to wind down, or something. Just to prepare for the Pokecrawl that night.

reverend_tobias

Just now realized the pages on the map. Seems pretty dumb to me, but oh well. Anyway, training from Birmingham, Alabama. Hope to see you Metroid and Sonic riders in two weeks!

the marker for PAX East's location is WRONG! Why the BCEC isn't on that map is weird.

TheRobotGuy

I was just wondering where everybody that is attending PAX East would be coming from. I will be coming from Manchester, NH with another friend from Manch, and a friend from Maine who is going to meet up with us here, then we're going to the bus station at 5AM to arrive in Boston at 7:10ish.
I read a lot of posts from people who are coming from overseas, so with all the sarcastic answers under location, it would be cool to see how far people are willing to travel to go to PAX East.

Looked at it, and fixed the marker to where the convention center is. It was just placed a little ways north of where Pax East is.

StrikerObi

Coming from Tallahassee, FL. This is my 3rd PAX (I did Prime '08 and East '10). I can't wait.

neuroslice

I just noticed that anyone can drag anyone else's placemark anywhere they want.
This is probably why someone is driving from the west coast of Africa, and a bunch of people are apparently leaving from the middle of the Pacific ocean.

Cailler Country

Coming from Nashua, NH. Yeah, nothing crazy.

It's great to see more people from Virginia filling in! Perhaps we could do a Richmond / DC / Baltimore get together arranged.

I'll be down for that. I also live in MD and am flying up from BWI with a friend on Wednesday. We're meeting a couple of friends from MD on Thursday for Pokecrawl (Team Snorlax probably). My friend and I are staying for a week so we can do some touristy things (Go CityPass!).
