Additional Notes: I am perfectly fine sleeping on the floor. Or in a closet. In a shower? Whatever, really.
I'm a big Nintendo person, the 3DS is my favorite thing since sliced bread and I'm a proud Wii U owner. I also love tabletop, and my halfling paladin recently perished when my friend stabbed me through the heart during my last campaign. I also play MTG (though I'm horrendous, I don't have enough money to spend on cards) and will cherish my very first deck (G/B suck deck) until the end of time. I'm currently in a grad program in Washington to be a teacher so I get along with people pretty well. I'd prefer to room with another female just for ~safety~, but if it comes down to it I'll do whatever needs to be done.

Best Contact Method: email me at parker@treemoore.com and then we can exchange phone numbers from there!
Additional Notes: Lookin' for a place to crash with my cousin. Possibly my girlfriend too, though. We live about 45 minutes south of Downtown. Last year we drove everyday and parking and gas ended up being $200 bucks, so why not try and stay in Seattle? As long as we can walk to the WSC, we are happy. Would like a 2 bed room, but single bed with a cot available is fine (of course you would get the bed haha) Willing to drop around $300 bucks, but could go to $350.
About us: All three of us are really friendly and laid back. My girlfriend and I love MTG and dig handheld, and my cousin just goes with the flow. None of us drink or blaze, but don't care if others do! Oh we like hygiene too so you don't need to worry about smelly people. Thanks for looking!

About me: I'm a Seattle local but don't like having to drive home after the concerts, et al and would love to have a hotel to crash at. I can sleep just about anywhere and don't mind sharing a bed (that's fairly con-standard for me) or sleeping on the floor. I'm not cosplaying, so luggage would be limited to clean clothes and shower stuff, because bathing is good. Also, I'm more than willing to act as taxi to and from SeaTac (one trip each way) if you aren't going to rent a car.

Additional Notes/Requests:
Did a hotel share last year and it worked out pretty great for cost and the convention in general, looking to do the same thing again. This room has two double beds, a mini-fridge, and a couch bed (pretty sure it's a fold-out) - I prefer the couch and can share if needed. Not a smoker, occasional drinker but not an obnoxious drunk, keep my stuff clean and pretty compact - worst case I may have my laptop with me.
Travelling in from the Los Angeles area, planning on heading up on my own unless one of my friends manages to get tickets somehow. If you're the kind of person that doesn't mind someone jumping in on the occasional board game or the likes then I'll gladly join you. Possibly attending Dev but would be doing a separate hotel for Wednesday, if you're considering doing the same then maybe we can work something out.
More details about the hotel are here: http://www.marriott.com/hotels/travel/seadt-springhill-suites-seattle-downtown-south-lake-union/ -- I've stayed here for two previous PAXs and I've been pretty happy with them, if you have any questions about the place then I can do my best to answer you.
Edit: Had to modify the price part due to the occupancy stuff with OnPeak - will be calling and asking if they will allow a 5th for the room without it being an issue, assuming it comes to that - I normally wouldn't worry about this but I've seen it become a issue before so I'm playing it safe. Just got off the phone with the hotel and they clarified the price information, I reverted it back to what it was originally.
Just got this hotel filled. To the other people that emailed me I'll let you know if something changes.

Best Contact Method: No PMs, please!
Additional Notes/Requests: This is a non-snoring room. There may be alcohol consumption but nothing crazy is planned. What I've done in the past, and what I will recommend(/require for myself) this year, is taking quick photos of the other roommate's driver's licenses or IDs. I've never had anything disappear from my room but worst case scenario you've got the full names/addresses of everyone that was there if that does happen. Additionally, if anything is damaged in the room I would like to be able to contact everyone. If that is an issue for you I'm totally willing to work something else out that so long as it still gives everyone a little extra comfort.

The room has a couch and we can request a roll-away bed at a cost if you don't want to sleep on the floor. My boyfriend and I will be taking the single bed. No smokers, no pets please.
My husband and I currently have a hotel at the Renissence in Seattle for a One king size bed. When we booked the hotel my husband said it was 2 beds. We have 4 people in our group.
Is there anyone willing to trade a one bed for a two bed. This will be really helpful.

Notes:
If you're interested we can negotiate cost, but generally we're looking for a proportional share (1/3 if one person, 1/2 if two). This is a single queen room that apparently may not have rollaways, but if you're comfortable sleeping on the floor then great. We would also like to get to know you before the Convention. If you'd like to hang out, great! If you just want to share the lodging and do your own thing, that's fine too. Sorry to single males, but this is what my wife and I are comfortable with.

Number of Spots Available: 1-2

Best Contact Method: by email (elynnlange@gmail.com)
Additional Notes/Requests: We will definitely be staying at the hotel the nights of the 29th and 30th, but if we can get one or two more people to share with us, then we may stay the night of the 31st as well, if we all would like to. The room has two queen sized beds, so you wouldn't have to sleep on the floor. Also, we will be driving up to Seattle from Southern Oregon, so if you are on the way and would like to ride share with us, as long as you can pitch in for gas and parking, we can certainly arrange to give you a ride. Gas would be about $10/day and $10/day for parking. All would be approximately $50/day.

Additional Notes/Requests: The hotel is just a few blocks away from the convention center and we have two beds so you're definitely welcome to the other. If you'd like to stay til the 1st we can possibly work something out, we'd just have to iron out the details. I keep seeing this shower biz so for safe measures I'll say that it will be a must to room with us. We're very lax and we're up for hanging out anytime during the event but if that's not your thing that's all right too, and in any case we'd like a little info on who we're rooming with.

[*] It's a twin suite so there is one bedroom with two twin beds, one bathroom, a living room, and a small kitchen.
[*] I'm clean, easy to get along with, and usually prefer to go to parties rather than having them come to me (in other words I won't be bringing anyone back to the room with me at night and prefer you not to do the same).

-We will be checking out the concerts and/or tournaments so we'll be up late
-I'll be bringing board games and movies
-Looking for a place very close to the convention center (Prefer Sheraton or Olive8)
Overall, we are all pretty laid-back people looking to make new friends and have a great time.
(Personally, I am willing to sleep on the floor if that helps.)

Additional Notes/Requests:
My girlfriend and I will be staying at Homewood a block away from the WSCC, and are looking for roomies! We are non smokers, don't drink, and don't plan on staying up any later than the concerts. Currently I have one female roomie staying with us, and a male friend that will be spending Friday & Saturday night with us. This leaves room for 1 spot to share a bed with our female roommate, and 1-2 floorspace spots for either gender. We're at the homewood as stated above, but I still don't know the exact bed situation. It can either be 1 bed, 1 sofa bed, or 2 beds and 1 sofa bed. Either way, 1 bed is filled by myself and my GF, and the other bed is for our female roommate (with her being ok to share the bed with another female). Send me a message if interested at all!

We currently have 4 people in the room and so it is possible to have two others.
Additional Notes/Requests
My Clan of people have been going to PAX Prime since 2007. We don't stay up too late but we do like to Play board games late with alcohol involved and we all go out at night to the various functions and parties. We respect everyone else in the room but you have to be tolerable of us til 1am, 2am latest. We prefer a roomie who is older due to us being an older crowd.(Age Range of our group is 26-31.)
