I'm down with talking shop as well. We have 9 Kickstarters under our belt for RPGs and card games... so I'll gladly answer any questions. We're also gearing up for our very first board game later this year, so we'll be eager to get any BG related printing tips.

Anyone that is bringing their game to show case, send me a PM with info and I'll add it to the first post.

Im bringing along my Vita and 3DS for anyone that wants to play too.

Hopefully will know on beer soon as well.
We'll be featuring games made by exhibitors and locals, too. Not a marketing event but we want to make sure people see the hard working indies there.
I also haven't had a chance to play it yet so it would be cool to break it in at PAX.

Are newbies welcomed? I love table tops unfortunately I don't have many friends that play them, so I haven't experienced many. Would I still be able to come and perhaps join a game?
Dude anyone that wants to play is generally welcome
Of course you're welcome. Come find me and I'll break the ice and get you in a game.
tweet me if you have twitter @s3prototype when you get there!)

I've been to PAX East 5 times, never to Prime, and this is my first PAX South (Thanks to my wife and @s3prototype). No matter what PAX you go to, it always feels like home.

Let me add to the chorus: YES! LOL. Seriously, I played some games prior to last year, but I just sat at a table with four strangers and learned four new games as the night went on. At most, I think one person at the table (if that) had played each game at least once. Sometimes we were all reading the instructions as we went. It was a blast.
I ended up gaming with each of those people again on different days during PAX itself when we ran into each other at the after-hours game lending area. And more strangers would join us for each game, so I met lots of new people playing board games last year.
If I make it out to the pre-PAX event, I'll probably bring my most recent Kickstarter arrivals: Zombicide Black Plague, Blood Rage, and maybe Trickerion (I still need to learn the rules for that one).
This sounds awesome! For sure something in totally down for!

Sweet!

Its up to you. If you feel people would play it then definitely. If you feel it may get too involved to keep people in one spot, then dont. Or you can just leave it in the car

We have tables for about 150 people. We can squeeze a few more in and probably fit up to 200, but a little crowded. 150 should be fairly comfortable with gaming room for all.
You can all use your PAX passes for a free day pass to Geekdom Thursday if anyone would like to check it out!
I'll have restaurant guides for the first 20 people. Sorry I couldn't grab more.
Free beer
In exchange for free beer, we'll need a few people to help us fold tables at the end. We have enough that it should be 5 min of work to fol them up and move them to the closet in the space.
what time do you need people there to help?

We'll do setup Wednesday so we'll be all ready Thursday, though I'll be there at 530 or. Event starts at 7.
Not to be confused with the free, open-to-everyone game night we are talking about, being hosted at Geekdom. Just in case anyone isn't clear. I think Aerikan means Geekdom will open it's doors (it is a member-only facility) free that day if you show your PAX badge, so you can check out their facilities. (I've been upstairs, and it's pretty swank. Worth a look if you need a creative work space.)
As for helping clean up, there is a hard deadline of midnight, isn't there? So anyone wanting to help should plan on staying about that long, right? I think we got kicked out of the hotel last year a little after 2AM, so midnight shouldn't be difficult for folks. :P
It's actually not a hard deadline. Essentially we can go til whenever as long as we lock up after. However, as I am exhibiting I need to be in early Friday, so I have to fly around midnightish. There is a good chance (in fact I am planing on it) that other cohost Geekdom members will be there to allow it to go til 1 or 2am or so.
How quickly did the space fill up?
We're heading out of Houston as soon as we are both home from work. At best, that means we won't roll in to SA until 7-ish. Toss in a quick In-N-Out stop and it could be 7:30-8 when we get there. I'd hate to arrive only to be capacitied out.
follow me on twitter @s3prototype and I can give you up to the minute stats or PM me

Can minors participate in the festivities at Geekdom? My party consists of two 17 year olds and a 22 year old
Of course, just drinking for the 17 year olds.
ultness.com | twitter: @ultness | facebook: ultness | instagram: ultness
Yup, no games for the minors. They'll have to sit in the corner and drink beer while they wait.
