    I can't speak for Atlus, but in my experience from the wizard crawls it doesn't have to be something spendy or elaborate, But you do need to be able to look at the person and KNOW he's on the crawl.

    So for instance... a pokemon shirt (even a homemade one) and maybe carrying a pokeball would likely count, pinning a card to yourself most likely wouldn't.

    Ya, that sounds about right. I saw some pics of people who just had the scarves or a tie. Nothing super fancy but not exactly a card pinned on them haha.

    I'll be at the Sheraton, too, so I'm sure I'll be around.

    Also I won't be very dressed up, nothing is in my size and I haven't had the time to make anything. Though I have an idea or two, I just don't know where to look.

    If you're worried about WiFi access during a bar crawl, you're probably doing it wrong.

    There are two things we Irish do better than Americans, drinking and reading comprehension. Hey-ooo!

    In all seriousness I wasn't crystal clear there. What I was trying to say is I'm hoping that the route is announced before Tuesday (when I fly out) since I probably won't be on the forums at all while in 'Murica.

    So what constitutes a "costume?" I don't have to time or money to do something really fancy. I'm just gonna throw an old Charmander Pokemon card in a Plastic badge holder and clip it to my person.

    Yeah, I don't have major funds either. I was going to try to throw together maybe a Brock costume (either cartoon or game style) or a Team Rocket costume with Mrs Ninja

    Well I buckled down and made myself a T-Shirt it's drying right now but I think it'll look pretty sweet. Pics coming later.

    For the non-pro drinkers: Make sure you eat a decent meal before the pub crawl, I suggest the pre-pax dinner maybe.

    The upside of the dinner will be no waiting for a bill and you can eat as much as you want. The downside is eating too much and puking before you even get a drink.

    My flight's getting into Boston around 10, so I'll be a little late to the crawl. Is there going to be a way to catch up with the team?

    Once the schedule is posted, just check it out and whenever you get into the area, figure out what bar one of the teams is at and just head directly there.

    Any Squirtlers want to be drinking buddies? This will be my first actual pub crawl ever besides my brother's bachelor party... Also, if anyone has a spot I can crash to near the con center, I would be greatly appreciated. Am male, don't mind coed rooms. Thanks!

    Your entire team is your drinking buddy. We're not going to be paired up or anything. Kind of defeats the purpose of being a team.


    Also, you might want to post here: http://forums.penny-arcade.com/showthread.php?t=100634 if you need a place to stay.

    I don't mean paired up for the actual crawl. I have a place to stay, but the people I'm staying with aren't ok with me coming home anywhere near drunk or tipsy. So basically I was just asking for a one night crash spot/bed share. I can pay if necessary. The idea of the buddy was to help me get back to the place I COULD stay, I just don't know Boston sober, so I surely don't know it drunk.

    If this is against the rules, then I'll withdraw the request and seek out a one night crash spot somehow else. Sorry to clog up the thread.

    i asked a similar question earlier on, cause traveling drunk to my hotel room alone is scary O_O.

    but from what i've gathered from the thread so far there's going to be enough people either traveling in the direction of most of the hotels or actually in your hotel. [if your staying in a hotel of course]
    and the rules are basically "No man left behind" so i'm sure there are several people who won't mind making sure you make it safely home. :)

    at least...thats what i'm hoping. :P

    It's not a hotel... But yeah, I don't think my friend who is staying at this place is sure if she can even stay there yet. Regardless, would the crawl leaders be averse to me adding +1 despite the fact that the +1 will most likely not drink? I need to check with her first, but if she wants to then I might just do that and be done with it.
