Anyone else reinforcing gamer stereotypes and going to PAX unencumbered by others?

    Bah, I might end up going solo. First the Portland caravan died, and now it looks like the West Coast Supertrip is dying as well. Hell, I can't ever find 3 other people to share a hotel room with. But oh well, as long as I get to play some video games, its all good.

    Wow, what a great line, I'm going to go cry myself to sleep now.

    Hbox, think of the great story you'll have to tell when you get back!

    Hey have them get credit cards with frequent flyer miles, two month worth of expenses plus any kind of sign up bonus and they should be close! It only cost me 25k miles.

    ...this is of course if you and your firends are not 12 years old or anything, what do I know?

    Man, I'm so poor, the only way I could go solo would be to ride my bike. Let's see... Wichita, KS to what, Seattle? That's like... 40 days, 3 knee surgeries, and a killer wedgie. Maybe for the texas meet.

    Hi, new to the forums, but saw this thread and thought I'd chime in. I'll be going solo, only because most of the people I know that like Penny Arcade can't afford to go, and there's no way in hell that I can foot their bill. Unless, of course, they were really cute chicks and I wasn't engaged.

    Seth,

    I'm from Bloomingdale and I'm trying to get my buddies to head out there with me with no luck so far. Care to turn your Solo into a Duo? I would also be honored to join your Halo team, so that we may secure our rightful position of last place.

    (sorry, was gone on bizness)

    Sweet! You’re definitely in! And I'll be willing to bet there are more teams like ours, since the further away people are from Seattle the less chance their going to be a part of a four man team.

    I wanna participate in PAX to the fullest and I know others want to as well. We may not win, BUT I'LL BE DAMNED IF I GO DOWN WITHOUT A FIGHT!!!!

    I'd love to join, I couldn't get any friends to come, and I want to be able to play in the Halo tourney, even though it'll be hard to get used to after the H2 beta. I'm actually turning 16 on the 28th and trying to figure out whether to go on the first day or not...

    Oh man, take it from someone who knows, buy WetNaps and Fabreeze. Your fellow con-goers will thank you.

    Wear a hat also, or better yet, shave you heads. That way if your into cosplay you can go as Bonk.

    Ok, this message is for my team: We will meet at the Halo tourney registration table; it will be under my name, Seth Robison. If it is necessary to give a team name, it has been decided that it will be Rogue Squadron, a name befitting our nature. Look for either one, or failing that, this handsome devil (see pic thru link in sig)[/img]
