Added to the list and sent the payment. You sir owe me one shirt and it better be comfortable!

LordFizzlebeef

Added to the list and sent payment. I eagerly await shirt.

Very awesome shirt design this year, and a great color choice. I think the Ladies American Apparel shirts I have tend to be a decent quality. I've signed up for a shirt. Thanks for spearheading the shirt, both in design and distribution. It's a lot of work dragging that box around and tracking people down.

Hubby was wondering if shirts are available for shipping to outsiders who are not strictly taking "the" train but are taking a train and would like a shirt to commemorate.

Sgt Superman

I've signed up and paid as well. I won't be getting on until Olympia-Lacey so hold onto mine for me.

Thanks to all those who've signed up and prepaid so far!

Show me your ticket stubs! JK, I'm fine with this. I'll either need your shipping info, or you'll need to arrange to meet me at the expo. PM me, or email weenog42@yahoo.com

I put myself twice because I'm buying two different sized shirts. If thats wrong, please correct me and I can change it. I prepaid the $16. Can we have it shipped? About how much would that be?

Thanks for making such an awesome design. ^_^

Menchi

Name is down and payment is sent. See you on the train!

With the success of last years magic draft on the train, Arikado and I have once again decided to host another. We currently have 6 spots available and the entrance fee will be $15 (which you can give to me or Arikado on the train). You will receive 3 magic 2012 booster packs and enough basic land to build a deck. You keep the cards you draft. The prize structure is 6 packs for 1st, 4 packs for 2nd and 1 pack each for 3rd and 4th. We will be starting the draft mid evening on the Wednesday of the departure and are willing to teach anyone who has never drafted before. Please PM me or Arikado if you wish to join us and we look forward to seeing you all on the train!

You did that correctly, then.

Can we have it shipped? About how much would that be?

Short answer, for a single shirt, $2.50 within the US. Long answer, I have updated my post.

Dracil

Ok, I will be doing this again this year. I should like, buy tickets and stuff.

Wooo! PAX Train 2011! Has anyone entertained the idea of doing a Train Murder Mystery game?.. If not, I'd like to look into organizing one. If you guys talk about it in earlier pages, my bad, I'm at work so I only had time to read the latest.

TNTrooper

I will probably start taking PayPal donations for the pizzas sometime in the next few days.

Alright that's a fair price. I sent you the $5 for shipping the two shirts. I'll send you a PM with the personal info.

Thanks.

Did we want to get a complete roster together, as in years past? Something to show who's going, and what they're bringing?

We tried in the past but people forget what they said they would bring on a forum they never read 3 months or never check the forums past what train to take and don't notice the Google Spreadsheet later down in the post.

Arikado

You can't organize the PAX Train.

It just happens.

polaris314

Just signed up for a shirt! I've never really been a PayPal user so I may end up waiting to pay on the train but if that changes in the near future I will happily prepay.

MobiusDoppelganger

im going to sign up and pay for 2 shirts, i still haven't worked out whether or not ill be able to take the train

Tar3820

I'm going to have to make a special set of buttons just for trading on the train. Also, my buddy alldark as been looking into making/purchasing a "Hogwarts Express" sign to put up in/on the train, for those of us continuing to the Triwizard Drink Tournament. I dunno about the rest of you, but I'm changing into my uniform on the train.

Weenog42

36 shirts presold so far! Woo! I'll check one last time for the exact deadline before I put in the order, but it's going to be around August 1st.

A few people have asked, so let me clarify that if you sign up for and pay for a shirt, you will get a shirt. If your plans change and you cannot take the train, or if you're not taking the train this year but have in years past, you can still sign up. You'll just have to meet me at the expo to pick it up. I'll have my smartphone, so I can still read the forums and PMs at PAX.

shirts ordered, payment pending next paycheck this friday

EDIT: Payment sent

TNTrooper

For those that want to pitch in and help get pizza in Portland you can PayPal me at email removed bring cash on train. As for toppings go I'll will be sticking with more generic stuff that everyone would want a slice of but I will try to accommodate request so if you got something you want let me know in the message section on PayPal. Just keep in mind weird shit like Goat Anus probably won't happen unless a lot of people request it.

Edit: http://www.roventepizzeria.com/ is the pizza place.

Looking at their menu they don't have a goat but I'll see if they can get one just for you.

I demand cougar bacon on my pizza!

The deadline to preorder shirts is August 1st!

39 ordered so far. Keep em coming!

Just ordered my shirt! Awesome design and sweet idea! I think it will be really cool to sport it in later years! Only question, is the dark red set for the guys? I almost like the light red version, sort of looks more like the Detroit Red-Wings red which is an awesome color. Any chance I can get one in that color instead? If not, that is ok. Will most likely pre-order through paypal in a week with a note to my forum name. Excited to meet you all! I will be getting on solo at Sacramento meeting a guy I am rooming with in Seattle.

Any League of Legend players? CBR1000Rider <-- in game name.

Any one lanning laptop games?

Weenog42

They do all need to be the same color for the order. You want to match everyone else anyway, right? The ladies color is slightly different, because it's a different brand of shirt. It's closer than last year, at least.

Arikado

Can you even LAN League of Legends?

paxjax

Sadly no

Meratus

Woohoo! I'll be on the train, I just need to call Amtrak on Monday to book using points.

I noticed in the "Stuff You Need" it recommends power strips. Some "99¢ Only Stores" sell a 3 outlet "current prong" that's great for adding extra outlets. They also sell small power strips with a short cord and 3 outlets. For $1 it wouldn't hurt to grab one of each.

Current prong:

I'm confirmed taking the train with 2-4 friends (depending on direction), we're headed out to LA from Arizona.

I just added one shirt order but I'll hurry them up and see if they want any before tomorrow.

Bearbarossa

Shirts and pizza are paid for so now it's just the waiting game.

What part of AZ are you from?

TNTrooper

Also if I give PayPal 2 weeks to out the pizza money in my account so I can actually use it then the final day to send money for pizza would be 9th. Also I will only be collecting limited amounts of cash to cover the delivery guys tip or to bring us up to a decent sized order if there isn't a lot of PayPal donations.

We're all through the valley in Phoenix, Glendale, and Tempe, and one is flying in from out of state... At least one of them is flying back to PHX (I'll see if I can get the flight information, that I see you're flying back to PHX too). We have a place to stay in LA overnight so we're headed out the previous day, though we're still figuring out how that would best be done.

Also, we're planning on raiding a local soda shop to stock a cooler full of dozens of brands of bottles root beer soft drinks and other, inferior types of sodas.

Ah, cool I am down in Gilbert myself. I'am only flying cause I didn't have anyone to roadtrip with and share a hotel room in LA can't really change plans this year but if you guys are doing the same thing next year I can join you. You stocking up at http://www.popsoda.com/ by any chance?
