    Badge!

    Edit: For some reason it's making the [/img] tag part of the link so it's not working. Therefore, picture if you will, my hand holding a badge much like those others being linked.

    Back of the PAX badge lists Exhibition Hall under Level 4 and Level 6. Makes me that much more eager to see the map for this year. Blows my mind how much larger it got each year.

    The back of the Halo Fest badge states - 'The holder of this badge assumes all risk and danger of being injured as a result of performances and/or demonstrations at Halo Fest"...What kind of performances and/or demonstrations could they be doing where I could injure myself short of tripping?

    Well they have promised a full scale warthog (there were pix somewhere) so you could fall off that while trying to climb up the gunner seat. I'm really curious now though!

    I am on vacation right now, but I don't know if the badges have shipped to my house yet. Will they be at the postoffice when i get back and i have to pick them up? Do I have to sign for it? Grrr. I can't wait.

    Live in everett, WA just north of Seattle. No badge today :(

    I was driving some out-of-towner friends around, and I kept complaining about being blinded. They responded with "You see, where we come from, people tend to wear Sunglasses." I retorted with a simple "You people tend to have sun."

    Could someone explain to me the purpose of the Halo Fest badge?

    If all PAX badges come with a Halo Fest badge, and you must have your PAX badge with you to get into Halo Fest.... Why even have a separate physical Halo Fest badge at all?

    I'm in Redmond and got my badge today! Hand delivered by ROB himself, even.

    Max - Not sure. It does seem redundant to me, but maybe it's just for the Halo faithful to have some special commemoration?

    I got my badge(s) today. The problem is, from what I understood from talking (albeit briefly) to the media team, I was supposed to pick up my media badge at the convention, not ahead of time. It's also apparently a yellow badge, where this one is the standard red Three-Day badge.

    Did I end up buying an extra badge on accident?

    I live in Central Oregon for the summer and that's where my pass is getting shipped. Didn't get mine today but I'm used to not getting it right away. This is the first year I'll be getting a SAT and FRI pass instead of a three day.

    Got mine yesterday (in DFW). I was glad that they just came in a standard envelope so the postman just put it in my box. Lately they tend to freak out when I get a package and decide I need to drive down to the postal warehouse and pick it up, with the hours conveniently 8:30-4:30, otherwise known as when people are at work.

    But woo, PAX badges!

    Got my Sunday badges yesterday. I'm one of those who waited a little long (but not TOO long) to get badges, and got 3 one day badges. Do they mail each day's badges separately? Because I'll be extremely sad if I only get to go on Sunday. That and I spent a lot of money for the one day passes.

    Do not freak out, it is still very early. I was in the same boat as you last year. I bought single day passes and only my Saturday passes arrived. I simply E-mailed pax_questions@paxsite.com when it got closer to the event and let them know my badges had not arrived, they told me:

    "Your badges should arrive, however if they do not drop by registration first thing in the morning with a printed out copy of your order confirmation and we will get everything in order.

    Take care,"

    I was then able to just pick them up at Pax, no problem.

    Now you know, and knowing is half the battle.
