PAX PRIME 2013 Information and FAQ (READ THIS FIRST, THEN ASK ALL QUESTIONS HERE)

What I plan to do is park nearby one of the light rail stations nearby the airport and take it up to the convention center. It's about a 5 minute walk from the station to convention center.
Will call is open on Thursday I believe.
Quick reminder, if your Guidebook app is giving you grief, go to http://m.guidebook.com/guide/11947/. This is a web edition that even a 3DS can digest (I still wouldn't trust wifi to help you much at PAX) and it has most of the same functionality, except for QR scanning and bookmarking your own schedule.
You search every spot that it could conceivably fit.
1) I couldn't make it this year. Planning for next year, is PAX Prime always at the same time every year?
2) Also planning for next year, when do tickets usually go on sale, and is that also the same every year?
Thanks for the info
I was given the same information, to grab my medical badge from the info booth or registration desk , will either of these be open on Thursday or do we have to wait till sometime Friday ?
Depends how badly you wanna get into the panel, how popular it is, and what theater it's at. 30 minutes has usually been fine for me, but I haven't tried going to a super popular one. If you use Twitter, follow @Pax_Lines and they'll try to give you a heads up on some of the larger panels. Also, I believe you can't start lining up for a panel, until the line for the previous one is let in.
It's up to the performers as to how long they want to stay. Their meet-and-greet/storefront area is Bandland, which is located in the 4th floor north lobby (if you're at the main entrance of the WSCC, take the escalators on the right all the way up, and that'll put you right in that lobby).
Registration will be open starting 1PM tomorrow.
Anyone with past experience have any light to shed on the topic of arrival times?
I'm not sure if you need to be registered in order to get into the Main Theater at 10:30am or not. I've always gone up to the queue line for the exhibit hall.
I just (finally) opened the envelope with my two sets of Fri-Sat-Sun-Mon one-day PAX passes in it and... There's Mondays where my Fridays should be.
The passes were in there in the order Mon/Mon/Sat/Sat/Sun/Sun/Mon/Mon.
WHAT DO I DO
Oh good, so I just... do what I already did.
What time does the will call booth close for thursday night? Or do I have to wait for friday morning to sort this out? /me is on the train.
Assuming your close, i'd stop by and see if they are open. The Thursday reg close time is often flexible depending on volume.
It acts like a 4 day badge when not performing expo duties.
Yes, sharing at 8.
Come to Registration with a copy of your order confirmation.
So this year I was only able to snag myself a Monday badge, which is better than nothing but there's a panel at the Pegasuses theater on Friday that I really want to go too.
Would I be able to get into the panel with my Monday badge even though the badge date does not correspond with the panel date?
And If I did and they rejected me, would I be able to get in by saying something like "whoops I wore the wrong badge!"? Do you think they would let me in?
I'll probably wear a hoodie and zip it up enough so that my day is hidden.
Whats the worst that would happen if they found out? I sure do hope they wouldn't revoke my badge :O
How do the Console Freeplay/Classic Console areas work?

First off, this idea is uncool, trying to sneak your way in.
As I understand it, you wouldn't make it past the check points in the centre if you tried to go into the PAX-only sections without a badge for the correct day. If you try to hide it, you will be asked to show it. If it's not for the right day, you will not be allowed to go past the checkpoint and may be asked to leave/escorted out of the building.
That being said, I've never heard of anyone getting escorted out or having a badge confiscated, unless it's stolen or a fake. If you really want to see that panel, check to see if it's being streamed, see if someone you know who is going can record it, or absolute last resort would be to see if there is anyone selling a single day badge. Per Washington state law (usual disclaimers apply, I am not a lawyer, etc), if the badge is being resold within city limits of the event, they can not legally sell it for more than retail.
Last year year it got a little funny. But i think it starts in the queue rom and if there is overflow the just Line people up in the park in the back. The years before everybody just went into the queue room and if it was too crowded for you taste you waited in the hall looking at pax merch
I should get there a code to unlock special skins for my champions in the game. I would know if one of you could please help me to get these skins (it's the last chance to get them) going to league of legends stand and asking a card with codes for the skins. The name of the skins are RIOT blitcrank, RIOT graves and Arcade hecarim.
I hope one of you can help me and i'm really grateful for him.
