The neighborhood's been a little rough lately (I work just up the street) and cars are broken into on a regular basis. Stow your PAX swag and remove any tech hookups including GPS stands.
Should we organize groups to walk there with if we want to walk? Or is it not that rough?

I think I'll make this my CD release party, even though I'll have CD's friday night. But my new album dropped earlier this week and one of the shows has to be
Just so you guys know, the neighborhood's pretty tame until the sun goes down. Getting there won't really be dangerous as it's still in the evening. Going back to the hotels in groups is definitely wise.
Since PAX closes down at 7, how about we give ourselves 30 minutes to take various items back to our hotel rooms if we need to, and meet at the doors at 7th and Pike at 7:30? Google says it should take about 20 minutes. We should get there just before 8, just in time for the PARTY!
we could take 7th -> Olive -> 8th -> Westlake all the way to Jillians.
please correct me Seattleites if I'm wrong. Or, if anyone else has a better way.
Just touching base with everyone since I was gone for a bit. I basically lived at my office for a straight week. Work got insane.
Everything is looking great for the party. Confirmed with our coordinator that we're all set. I love that you guys are organizing groups and stuff. That makes me happy. I leave for PAX on Tuesday (also going to PAX-Dev) and I'll be checking in on Jillian's sometime during the week, just to get an idea for space, flow, etc. I'll update accordingly.

Do you like fighting games? Were you gonna peek in at the fighting game setup I'm gonna be running? Excellent! Because I have an update for you guys: 3rd Strike Online has been installed on my PS3 and added to the game list!
Won't be able to attend the event. I'll sell my spot for face value ($40). I won't be able to check my PMs, but give me a text at (307) 222-9186 and we'll make it happen. Thanks
I totally didn't buy tickets early, and now I need 3 tickets. Let me know if you've got them, you can text me at eight oh five, 285, two seven two 6. I've already got two friends going, and theres a group of 5 of us. Any help would be appreciated!
The venue under-estimated how epic we're going to be and we've been relocated to the second floor. I went and toured Jillian's this morning, and it's awesome. The second floor is really cool.
The Megas (http://www.themegas.com/about.html) have also hopped on board, and will be playing sometime during the night. Not quite sure how the music situation is going to play out, but expect to hear it pretty much the entire night.
We have some AMAZING swag to give out, both bought and donated, that I think you guys are going to really like.
IF YOU HAVE EXPRESSED INTEREST IN VOLUNTEERING, I PROBABLY NEED YOU! Between checking people in at the door and helping the band, I actually do have need for a handful of volunteers this year. Please text me at seven seven five, three four two, three five six four or just show up around 7:00 at Jillian's to help out.
Thanks! See you all in a few hours!

I'm rolling out to Jillian's right now with the swag. If you happen to get there before me, just kick around. If anyone asks, you're with Jace Proctor (me) and the Post-PAX Party. I believe the manager's name is Tom. If you run into The Protomen or any of the other bands, tell them I'll be there soon.

I have to say, I was pretty surprised (in the good way) by how good this party is. I only knew Arco previously as a hard-working Enforcer colleague who's possibly the biggest PAX fanboy, if you will, in the Enforcers. ;-) Now, I know him as someone who puts on a good party! Thanks, mate, I don't regret turning up even though I could only rock up at 10:15pm.
First off, what a GREAT way to end PAX. Big thanks to you guys for putting this together. The venue was perfect and our group had a blast.
Also, my SINCERE apologies for subjecting y'all to my drunk ass playing Rock Band. I've never played, and I am tone deaf, but the wine told me to do it.
You rock Arco! Next year I have to plan appropriately and make sure I get signed up... and that I don't do something stupid like I did this year and fall asleep before getting over there. =(
Awesome afterparty, though sadly I had an early flight the next day and had to bail before midnight. Still, thanks for putting everything together Arco!
Tickets + Flight + Hotel = SEE YOU AT PAX 2012!

So, here's the best bus route if people aren't interested in walking more after 3 days of conventioning:

For some reason, I could not figure out how to get the url tag working with this new format.

Man it would suck if I had to look up directions!
You are standing at the main entrance to PAX.
>Walk North
Exits are (H)otel, (C)heesecake Factory, (T)heatre, (G)od my feet are killing me.

Now, now Liger, that's being kinda mean to the non-locals.
Our downtown is on a very strange grid, so the correct directions are:
Stand at main PAX entrance
Walk North on 8th til you get to Westlake.
Walk North on Westlake.
