Are There PAXers near Me? The Very First Forumers Attendees Map for PAX South
PAX SOUTH COMETH!
As @Moe Fwacky and I have done in the past, I have set up a map for us to put our points on and discuss where we are from.
Map! http://www.maptive.com/ver3/paxsouth2015
For checking in your area: If people are in the same place very close to one another they sometimes get put on top of one another. Click on your own placemark and see if there is a "1 of X" with an arrow in the bottom right corner of the popup. This means there is more than one placemark on top of each other in that spot. Click the arrow to cycle through them to find people REALLY close to you!

0) Check the map to make sure you aren't already on there! Many people submit early and then forget about it.. then they submit again closer to the show
1) GO HERE: http://www.latlong.net/ and get the decimal latitude and longitude of where you want your marker to go. You do this by dragging the map around and clicking to move the marker. You don't need to make this your actual residence or anything that close to where you live, this is just to get a general idea of who is near who. I personally put in the center of the suburb in which I live.
Note: There are other places to get your lat/long, this one is just super easy and straightforward.
2) Copy the decimal Lat/Long somewhere, or write it down. Make sure you include any minus signs that may be present... this matters A LOT.
3) please submit this handy dandy google form. I'll be compiling the submissions about once per week... ish... into the map itself.

I plan on doing my big "where's everyone from" thread and map soon, so that should help too
If you want to shut down this thread by all means. Keep this place nice and tidy. My agenda was to see if people were leaving at the same time and have road trip meetups or land marks.

Casey Jones: You want a fist in the mouth? I've never even looked at another guy.
Considering that several of us make it to Seattle every year, I'd be surprised if there aren't more that make it out to Texas.
All these PAX's are really helping my air miles account.
