Time to figure some things out. Personally, I like them doing this the weekend between the NFL Playoffs and the Super Bowl.
Hotel already booked, putting in for vacation today as well.
IIRC Hyatt was about $1.2K a night and Mariott was a little cheaper. I stayed at San Antonio Downtown/Alamo Plaza SpringHill Suites by Marriott for 4 night for around $700. Great hotel and about a 10 minute walk to PAX.
Heh yeah you are right. That would be a 4 night stay according to Booking.com.
And due to the jetblue screwup for pax east this year I can get a flight BUF-AUS for $220 and a $30 amtrak ticket to SAT.
This is turning out to be cheaper than going to Boston, but 5x farther away for me.
I just need the ticket now
But seriously I hope they don't sell out as quickly as I've heard the other PAX do.
Yeah I had much more fun just sightseeing in SA than the actual convention. Way too many indie games for my tastes. I was expecting E3 but got something way less. My fault I know before I get flamed. I'm way to old and set in my ways to enjoy all the indie/card games.
Still gonna be there all 3 days next year!

Woot! So excited! Already got my hotel booked. Glad they updated the Pax South page.
Though they do need to update the dates on the main site: http://www.paxsite.com/, the one that links to all the individual Pax webpages.
Edit: I booked at the Riverwalk Plaza as it's an easy walk from the convention center (.8 miles) and right near all the decent places I visited last time for food and beer for only $118 a night. Anyone stayed there before? Last time I was in an airbnb outside of town
edit: I now see that Lazorz already said that. so nm!
I'll be keeping an eye out when Media passes go up.
I'm on vacation that week so I'm hopeful that I can get the 3 day pass that I missed last year. Although last year I didn't buy any until they had been on sale for almost 2 months. I'm afraid that after the apparently surprising success of last year that badges will go fast.
I'm tempted to find an excuse to take the day off.
As for time of day, late morning/midday seems to be a relatively consistent time. Just be ready for anything (Twitter notifications are your friend).
Pins!
I'll just stay by the computer. All day. xD
