What is PAX South?
PAX South is the 4th of what is now 5 conventions (West, East, Aus, and Unplugged being the others) run by Penny Arcade and ReedPOP. PAX is a celebration of everything gaming and games, with PC, console, and tabletop freeplay, an expo hall, several panel theaters, concerts, and much more. But the best part of PAX is the community, because we all get to hang out and play those games and eat good BBQ and do all sorts of cool stuff.
When is PAX South?How much will tickets cost?
It’s almost here, and there’s all sorts of news to go over, so let’s jump right in. PAX South 2018 will take place on January 12 - 14, 2018. Registration will begin on July 18th at 2pm Central, and badges will be $80 for a 3-day, and $40 for individual Friday, Saturday, or Sunday badges. Get them fast, they never last quite long enough!
3-Day Passes sold out but there's still tickets available for all 3 individual days.

In a way I hope this continues, but in a way I hope it goes a little faster, as I don't want to see the event dropped from the schedule, either.
I mean I'm not adverse to roommates but I don't think I can say much to that yet until I know what everyone else is doing. My place also wasn't the cheapest either.
Also, it's doubtful they would move it this close to the end of the year but they just have to shift it a couple more weeks and I could have birthday PAX.

Well that's good to hear. I'll examine the budget and see if I can start socking away for the trip.
Will buy some tix ahead of time even though I don't know if I can go.
FOR THE GREATER GOOD.

I remember there was one east where they went from lasting a pretty long time to selling out super fast and I almost missed em.
I wasn't far this year, but walking back drunk still sucked
(Oh yeah I know totally)
I'd be surprised if they sell out crazy fast though, it's such a slower PAX, and putting it even further into the post-fall rush means I doubt there'll be many booths of brand new stuff to draw people like East or West

I'm sure it'll be fine too, but look at the difference btw east 2013 and 2014 in that spreadsheet!
If not I'll need a roomie
(Drury plaza hotel is in an old bank)
I had the dopest room at the drury plaza last year, easily double the size of rooms I had gotten there in the past.

The corner rooms?
Yeah if you luck into those it's amazing.
No, it was right by the elevators actually, I think the corner had to be a door or two down.

I will man your post at the Hooters in your honor if you cannot
Bring a framed memorial picture of him each time.

Just had to fix my water main because it was blowing water all over my bedroom carpet
Still gonna try and make it though
gotta see how things shake out
The framed photo requires it's own seat
(Not that I'm planning on going if I can't afford it, it'd just be nice to keep my expenses low)
Assuming I haven't married rich by then, absolutely

Also, did our group pic ever get posted?
Room sharing sorta worked out the last time we did it (and by that I mean I didn't get you sick, right?) so if you wanna split one I am hecks of down.
Also, they just sent out this email (spoiler for big)
