Even though nothing has been announced yet....... What is the schedule for most people?

I am not sure on how to plan my day, regardless of what is there.

I am going on Sat and Sun, just curious as to what times people plan on rocking up..

I am not sure how big this event will be, so I am very inexperienced.

So I am thinking I could either get there during the rush at around 10am but not sure if I should blow everything up on my first day, but really want to stay to pretty much the end. And then on Sunday do the same thing.

OR

I just stroll in sometime during the sat, check as much things out as I can and anything I miss pick up on the sunday.

I really want :
As much free stuff as I can possibly get.
See as much as I can
Meet and Greets

Suggestions?

BTW, I know this seems a bit weird since I don't know the schedule, so anyone with previous PAX experience...enlighten me please :)

    RT Panel, some walking around the show floor, poking people. BYOC in mornings, boardgames in afternoons... something beer-related in evenings.

    This is my first time to anything like this, I hope they're gentle with me :P

    So far my plan is to see Ron Gilberts keynote, then run around for the rest of PAX like a giddy schoolgirl looking at all of the things. I didn't get a ticket for Saturday though, so I will spend that day sitting in my hotel room crying.

    I'd recommend getting a good breakfast, then arriving at the showgrounds about 10 minutes after opening. By that time any lines into the hall should hopefully have been let in, and you can walk right in. This means you won't be first in line for any of the big booths, but realisticlly thats not going to happen without waking up many hours earlier, plotting your route in the hall, and walking very quickly (not running) to your target.

    If you are going to stay through the concerts, then you will want to pace yourself. Its a long day and you want to keep up your energy for maximum enjoyment. The Expo Hall will likely close at 6pm ish, then you will have time for dinner, more panels, and any freeplay expereince you want.

    Otherwise, best advice. Assume you will be there all day for both days, and practice patience as much as you can. :-)
