Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

You and me both. Go to the Curse party - it appears to be 18+.
The year (and PAX) before my 21st birthday was rough. The larger parties can be fun but ungodly crowded. I would recommend finding some of the smaller parties. Your hotel might be host to a few.
According to the website, if you RSVP'd, you're automatically "on the list" and cofirmation emails with further information will be sent out "prior to the party." I assume that means a few days before the event.
Nope. I will notify when I do.
Nope nothing from curse yet but as someone above mentioned there will probably be some individual hotel parties at the westin and seaport at least. There was some talk of this over in the hotel thread regarding digging up old n64s
Update: The Namco/ShiftyLook/Destructoid party (all-ages) will be in the Westin (Commonwealth Ballroom) on Friday 7-10pm. THERE WILL BE WAFFLES.

DID YOU SAY WAFFLES?!
Awesome, thanks for keeping up with this!
On Saturday night gaygamer.net is having a meetup at Fritz from 9pm-??. http://gaygamer.net/2012/03/pax_east_gay_gamer_meetup_at_f.html
So I'm guessing it's going to be first come first served. Saying you're attending on the FB page doesn't really mean anything.
No problem whatsoever! To me, the parties are what makes PAX really special. You can game all day, then have some drinks with fellow gamers. And, especially for me, being able to go to parties put on by companies that you really appreciate their work. It gives me a chance to tell them that I really appreciate their work!
And thanks for this link! I'll update the OP!
They might just be using it to get a general idea of how many people might be attending?

I went last year, buy your tickets before-they were sold out last year
How was it last year out of curiosity? I'm really looking forward to it but would like to know what I'm getting into.

That looks like it could be fun, but I'm not about to miss the Extra Credits panel, and I don't know if there'll be enough time between Extra Credits and the Rain Slick panel. Might be a party I have to miss.

I am hoping I do. It is my friends birthday that weekend and this would be an awesome bash!
Hah! Well, I am also artistically-challenged, but I did get an invite to the party this year.
This is Arty from Sanshee. I thought I'd throw our party hat into the ring and post this up. It's our first party. Should be a good time for all!
You can read more about it here.
I see there will be themed drinks. Is this going to be a cash bar or open bar?
Krissta-JEALOUS! You are just like all those peeps last year that got wristbands right in front of me! Grrrrrr!!! o_O lol
A note on open bars: they're awesome but can lead to awkward moments. Ended up at a party last year, was ordering a drink. A moment later I find Mr. Huge Developer standing next to me.
Me: "Thank you so much for those great games. Really. Please let me get you a drink"
Him: "Thanks man. But uh, it's an open bar"
Me: [silence followed by mumbling and epic fail]
Krissta: pictures, pictures, pictures! How about a thread of PAX parties pictures after all is said and done?

Thank you for having a party so I could have heard about your website and have discovered a new place to buy clothing from.

Hopefully I can experience my own fail this year! Normally I wouldn't care too much but its a close friends birthday and first PAX so I want to show him a good time!
So just for clarification, you need both an invite and a badge to get in the door or is it one or the other? Thanks!
Invites can only be earned by defeating our three ton "Sanshee Brand" mecha-gorilla that makes its roost on the pinnacle of the convention center* So we thought it would be in everybody's best interest to allow access to the party with either or. I hope that helps.
*one per victor, some restrictions may apply. The Sanshee company is not responsible for any mecha-gorilla related injury or death. Godspeed.
I will also be there and I will also be drunk. I will have a Gengar hat to be easily identified.
Edit: Finally got my RSVP.
It would be so boss if there actually was a mecha-gorilla roosting on the convention center.
