    Nah, I think he only said what he said was due to it being a friday and they weren't launching so might as well let people go enjoy their weekend.

    It would be weird that it says soon and doesn't happen this week, for me this is on the later side for soon

    I did it Friday and (unintentionally) started that frenzy. Someone else can do it today :)

    Though I think sending him offerings and tributes would be more efficient.

    Well I need to reboot my computer (everything but Chrome has completely locked up, and who knows how long my browser will last), so here's hoping it doesn't happen in the next 60 seconds.

    Time off: done. Hotel: ??? Travel: ??? Badges: ???

    I turned off my auto page refreshers for the weekend and didn't even bother to reset them until 9:50 this morning. I guess I'll leave them up now, just in case, but they won't do me any good as I have to be at work at 4 am tomorrow and Wednesday. Oh well, at least the cats will know if badges go on sale.

    When badges go on sale, this thread will close. A new thread will open for that.

    As far as continuing being here, there are loads of community events that get planned on the forums between now and PAX. They will usually get started once registration happens. You should stick around for those! Also there's a lot of other sections on the PA forums for discussing all sorts of other stuff.

    At least I'm off today so I can sit here and watch The Wire and do some housework and keep the PAX site within view all day. It just sucks because it's a lovely day...Chances are tickets won't go on sale after 3pm so I'll have enough time to get some chores done.

    This is literally what I did before I got my new job. I finished the wire during weeks one and two.

    Yeah I started it about a year ago and now that I completely finished Curb Your Enthusiasm I'm back into The Wire. Nearly done with season 3 right now. Thank goodness for dual monitor setups so I can hawkeye the crap out of the PAX site.

    Last Prime there was also a PAX without PAX event planned by and for people who didn't get tickets. It seems possible something similar will happen this year. So anyone unfortunate to not get badgers can still have reasons to come back here.

    For all of you newcomers to PAX, I highly recommend what Zerzhul said. Part of what makes PAX so great is the community, so getting involved in a community-driven event is amazing. I hope the Thursday night board game charity event continues forever and I will go to it every time it's held. I lurked for 2 years before finally making a forum account. I recommend against that, too ;-)

    Also, wtf guys, I even got stuck in my car for 30 minutes during a torrential downpour and STILL no tickets?

    They're probably updating the site so there won't be any hacks of it with fake "register now" links. That would be a nightmare!

    @Hingo The Khoo doesn't worry about mortal concerns. Rain and car rides are therefore not part of his decision-making. He will mash the button when he's ready.

    I've got mine keyed on the "Attendee registration is not open at this time." which I figure will change when they actually go live.
