Howdy fellow PAXers.
I'm BioWare Edmonton's Community guy, Evil Chris Priestly. If you're a PAX Primer, you've likely seen a fat guy in a staff shirt hanging out at the Mass Effect or Dragon Age booths? Yeah, that's me. Well, I'm coming to PAX East (woot!) and I'm bringing some swag with me.
We've recently launched Dragon Age: Origins and Mass Effect 2, so we don't have a booth at East this year, but I'm coming anyways to take in a PAX as a fan instead of a developer. Even so, I'm still all about meeting our fans at Cons, so I'm going to be bringing a selection of t-shirts and other swag to give away during the show.
Every 1/2 hour during the exhibit hall hours I will be tweeting my location on our biofeed twitter account. If you're a follower and the first to find me with the "secret code word" I tweet, you get some snazzy BioWare swag.
Even if you don't follow me on Twitter, if you see me walking around in my BioWare, Mass Effect or Dragon Age shirt with my BioWare backpack, stop me and say hi. Let me know what you like or dislike about our games (no I cannot get you into the TOR beta, so don't ask), let me know what you want to see in Mass Effect 3, Dragon Age 2, etc, buy me lunch, propose marriage, etc. I love to meet our fans or fellow like-minded nerds at conventions.
Hope to see you at PAX East.

What I'm saying here is that you guys do some high-quality swag.
Edit: (I don't like fileplanet or d2d)
If anything, he should bring vsove.
BioWare swag.... I'm tracking you down... If I give you one of my toes in a ziploc bag, will you bury it near the studio in Edmonton? Would either of the Doctors like it preserved in formaldehyde?
I'll stop being creepy now. Would be great to see you and shower you with compliments for the studio and yourself as a community coordinator!

And we're out of beta, we're releasing on time.
... wonder if your swag will come in a size small...
Also, Dragon Age was indeed as addictive and awesome as you promised it would be. I was quite pleased and addicted.
I'll check with Ed to see if he's coming along. I know he wants to, but sadly may get hung up doing work (I never touch the stuff myself). I'll bring him if I can.
Can't sell my swag at the Con as I'm not a vendor and I wouldn't want to honk off those who are or the organizers who definitley don't need me hawking my wares (my Biowares in this case.... sorry, that was just awful). This time, I'm there as a fan (a first for me as I usually have to work). I'm looking forward to taking in panels, playing games,testing demos, meeting folks and having fun.
If anyone has any suggestions (I'm too late for many of the pub crawls and dinner parties, but I'm open to ideas) of what I should to whiel I'm there, let me know. I enjoy meeting PAXers as we're all fellow geeks.

Woot! I'll bring some cookies your way... in fact, for PAX East we have something extra special planned. One of the ladies I work with has concocted approximately 6 dozen delicious chocolate cake balls covered in semi-hard chocolate. They're absolutely delicious: I'll save you some!
I don't think you'd be too late for the pub crawl! Join team Squirtle! Or just swing along with us and cheer us on if you want!
If you're a fan of food, considering joining us for our Sunday morning dim sum breakfast. China Pearl is some of the best dim sum I've ever had (and I've been to places in NYC, San Fran and Honolulu). Details are in this thread: http://forums.penny-arcade.com/showthread.php?t=113919. (For reference, dim sum is sort of like Chinese brunch).
Warning, if you come, be prepared for my never ending gushing about Mass Effect 2 and the babies I'd totally have with it.
And thanks for putting up the impromptu worshipping session. It was quite cathartic.
ENCHANTMENT!
