Vancouver PAX Forumer Events: 2012 Edition

Browncoat565

hey there all, I'm relatively new to the forums, and was wondering if anyone was going to be heading down on thursday I'm taking the 640 amtrak train

Sumi

Why hello there! I haven't heard any rumours of anyone (well, other than you, of course) taking the amtrak, but if I do, I will post it in the OP.

Browncoat565

sweet thanks, I wish I had noticed this post before I had bought my ticket... oh well

tr0tsky

Sunday isn't more minigolf...it's pitch & putt. Also, Worm's coming too

Sumi

Well shows you how much I know about golf. Sunday should be interesting then.

Anyways I changed the title, is that better? I used an ampersand because it's classy.

Sumi

I probably won't be at Minigolf this afternoon. I woke up and realized how much I need to do before PAX, but I will still be at lasertag.

Bombchelle

So I'm thinking I'll go for ice cream at the Lonsdale quay around 3:30 if anyone wants to join me. This should give us plenty of time to get ice cream and make it to mini-putt.

Teenychicka

I'll join you for ice cream and mini-golf I'm out for lasertag though.

Wormdundee

We decided on 5:00 for the putting right?

Theros

I have been informed that I will need to cancel on this weekend's events. Boourns.

joshanaitor

So 8 people are laser tagging should be awesome

Sumi

Who is going to lasertag that isn't on the list?

joshanaitor

Oh me

Sumi

Whooo

Sumi

Not sure if I am going to make the dinner tonight. Definitely won't make pitch & putt. Traffic forecasts are sitting at 1h40 for me to get out there.

Sumi

It was put forward that we check out the Storm Crow Tavern on Friday the 24th, is anyone interested?

tr0tsky

Storm Crow sounds good to me.

What time?

Wormdundee

There's also Dumb and Dumber at the Rio (plus liquor) on the 24th.

Sumi

Well I work until 6:30, so I probably couldn't be there until around 8:30, but you guys cab always go earlier than that. Dumb and Dumber starts at 11pm so that might be a cool thing to do afterwards.

Bombchelle

I'm down for either the Storm Crow or Dumb & Dumber. Basically what I'm saying is that I'm down for alcohol...

I'll be at FTWs and on the Bolt Bus.

If you wanted to add the Protomen concert at the Biltmore on the 29th to the list, I'm also going to that.

Also looks like I may have to go to Cultis Lake if everyone is going to it before Castle Fun Park, otherwise I don't have a way out to Abbotsford. On that note, if anyone is heading to the Abbotsford Raid Night from Vancouver that is not going to Cultis, please let me know.

Also let Teeny know.

parabola

I'll be at storm crow.

Sumi

So I didn't get a word on time so you'll have to contact each other to find out. I know, Communication? What is this nonsense?

Wormdundee

Absinthe, I probably won't be able to make it to the water slides, so this may work out.

Theros

A word of advice concerning the storm crow; don't.

delphinus

I have returned.

I am going to come back from pax dev to >try< and see you magnificent fools at wings.

tr0tsky

So bombchelle and I are headed out to the water park.Serenity/Dillon, if you're coming, send me a pm and/or look for the guy with a binary tattoo around his right calf

Haha or just look for you if people know what you look like.
Also no, I probably wont' be able to make it out to waterslides. Too much to do today...
Will be at Castle Fun Park tonight though!

Also, crap, I missed most of the events this year! It's been a busy summer for me...

Danneh

I forget if I RSVP'd for For The Wings, so if I haven't, I'm doing that now.

degreesplatinum

Hey everyone,

Thanks to my new job in Surrey and getting off work after 5:30 PM, I most likely won't be in for Wings until after 7PM, possibly 7:30. But considering past Wings nights, I'm just gonna assume everyone will still be there at that time. Amirite?

Yah, we'll be there for a while. I just made the reservation for 20 people at 6, under Shaun or PAX (or the 20 person group), so we should be good to go.

MetricalSky

Hey there! New forumer and first-time PAXer. I'll be at FTW tonight, and on the early morning Bolt Bus on Thursday.

dtglthree

Hey just wanted to notify you guys of an awesome live d&d comedy show happening @ 8pm (doors @ 7pm) this Wednesday (Aug 29th) at the Rio theatre in Vancouver

go to => http://www.criticalhitshow.com/ <= for more info/tickets

ALSO... Is anyone taking a different bolt bus? I would enjoy some company on the ride but cant make the Thursday morning trip.

Sumi

Thanks Trotsky.

I look forward to meeting you MetricalSky.

And as for the live D&D show, that's the one Joanna (Edda the Barbarian) is in so I encourage you guys who aren't going to Protomen that night to go. Plus it's funtimes. (Unfortunately as a hypocrite, I can't make it since I has paxing to do.)

parabola

I don't know why i'm still a maybe for Wings... I'm definitely going to be there.

tr0tsky

Wings was good. Someone forgot to pay for a pound of wings, so whoever it is owes me a drink or two :P

faerielaurelyn

Hey all - just a reminder that the Child's Play Gamepalooza! is coming up on December 1st at the Magic Stronghold (5558 Lane St, Burnaby), 3pm to 11pm, $5 entry. We'll have raffles and auctions and 50/50 draws, and games to rent. You can bring your own games as well, we'll have an area to keep them stored while you play.

I am still looking for some people to volunteer to help out for a few hours here and there, at the front door, watching auction items, selling raffle and 50/50 tickets, and signing out games. Please let me know if you'd be interested in volunteering some of your time!
