Any Austin PAXers?

Just curious. I'm moving there in 2 weeks and haven't met anyone there yet. I go to PAX Prime almost every year (though might do East instead next year). I used to know a pretty tight-knit group of people in Seattle, where I used to live a couple years ago, but I'm going to be pretty far away and was wondering if you guys ever meet up. If not, would any of you have an interest?

    I think there's quite a few PAXers in the Austin area actually, although I'll let them speak for themselves. I wouldn't expect it to be too hard to find some folks to hang out with.

    I would imagine so, Austin is a pretty gaming industry-heavy area and I bet some people go to PAX every year! :)

    Hope you guys have fun! It's an awesome experience.

    I'm trying to see if there is any interest in a pre-pax meetup in central Texas.

    I'm an Enforcer (and RTX Guardian) who's been living in Austin for a little over a year now. It's a pretty cool place, and there are a few other PAXers and Enforcers living down here as well. Hopefully you're enjoying yourself already!

    I'm living in the Dallas area, not quite local to Austin, but there's still a fair amount of Texan PAXers

    I'm in San Antonio, so I'm -really- close to Austin. Only about an hour away from me. I've actually been curious as to how many Texan PAXers there are too.

    I myself live in Houston but I go to Austin quite often (at least once a month) and usually will take the opportunity to meet up with other PAXersfriends from when I went to UT when I'm there. I'd definitely be up for hanging out if you would like and also a Pre-PAX hangout sounds like a lot of fun and I'd definitely be up for going to Austin to join for that.

    Quite a few DFW peoples are around. Speaking of which QuakeCon is next weekend, anyone going to go?

    I'm from San Antonio. I consider Austin my 2nd home since I'm always there. I'm all about live music so as the live music capitol of the world, it's no wonder Austin & I get along swell. ^_^ I <3 dirty 6th!

    I would be interested in a meet up. I move to Austin 6 years ago from from Seattle. PAX Prime is something I try to do every year, been to PAX East once and loved it! I'm super excited about PAX South now! Hope to see some of you there!

    Me and the girlfriend will be there, got our 3 day badges before they sold out luckily. We are also looking to split our hotel room with someone the nights of the 22nd 23rd and 24th. We snagged a room at the Menger Hotel which is just across the riverwalk from the convention center. The only room we could reserve has 2 queen size beds and we won't be using the 2nd bed. The total for the room is $455.34 and we would be asking for half, so if anyone is looking to get 3 nights in downtown San Antonio please let me know.

    There's a room share thread stickied in the pax south section, please use that for room sharing.
