    Rooming with SE++ people is so much better than just random people pulled from the PAX forum, definitely going to make that happen again next time.

    Oh hell yeah, PAX rule number fucking one is to room with SE people. I made that mistake in 2008.

    Well as long as my current wife doesn't find out.

    Rachel and I are hoping to go next year, if just for the weekend, depending on how my work handles vacation.

    It's your current wife from the future-past!

    I've had good luck in that I've found non terrible people to room with, but it's so much easier and more fun when you're all going to the same places and coming back at the same time.

    I did room with @Iloveslimes the first year which was cool, and we went to the Thursday night thing together, but it was my first year so I was mostly a loner and wandering the show by myself.

    @Kochikens I might, if finances/work/school/life allow for two PAXes and SDCC.

    EDIT: @Zonugal I would have left your name with the staff, but I assumed you would arrive at the room with Sal, riding crwth as if he were a horse.

    Oh yeah, I am practically James Bond when it comes to hotels. Breaking into rooms, pounding milk cartons like they were shooters, generally being awesome.

    My hotel roomies joined us when I was passed out (flight was delayed :( ) too!
    Except I had put down one of their names so they didn't need any help getting in.
    Don't remember them coming in. Just noticed them when I woke up. According to them I said hi and tried to hold a conversation but kept falling back asleep :rotate:

    I made it to the hotel and approached the person running the night desk. I told her I couldn't awake any one in the room. I was then questioned who was in the room and because of facebook was able to give them a real name to @RMED. I was then asked for a phone number which I also had, oh yeah. I was then asked which state RMED was from which I answered with, "I honestly have no idea, he's an internet person and I'm here for an internet convention. But I can tell you he is white with maybe a beard..." I was then asked how long he had made the reservation for and upon answering that correctly recieved a key up to the room.

    The lesson here is that come next PAX Prime all I need to break into your room is your real life name, a phone number and a solid guess that you are staying till Monday morning.

    Ideally of course, I'll live in Seattle, but if not, I will be doing hotels again

    Before PAX East I said I was gonna just do stuff in Boston instead of go to the convention every day but I went to the convention every day and didn't really have fun at it (but had loads of fun outside of it)

    I don't think I'm a convention person.

    Yeah, SDCC is much more about the content of the con, while PAX is about the partying of the people.

    Like I would ever treat Crwth with such disdain.

    I'd ride him like a pony.

    This was my first year rooming with SE folks and I can't imagine doing anything else. Last year I roomed with college buddies which was fun but with all of the SE events I felt like I was a stranger in my own hotel room.

    On an unrelated note, as cool as the WSCC was, I think I'm looking forward to going back to the BCEC for East.

    Having everything in the same building just makes life so much easier.

    Although the Paramount was, to put it mildly, totally bitchin'.
