Edit: False alarm, found it. Thanks!
Apple App Store
I haven't seen anything on it this year, but if I remember from a few years ago it was $3-$5 per day
Is it cash only? I'm going to make a point to have cash on me for it, but in the event that I forget lol!
Looks like not, the space it was in last year appears to be Tabletop Quiet Play. A shame, although I admit I rarely spent much time there.

I don't think I've ever had a coat check that accepted card so I would assume cash
Also keep in mind with card for anything during Pax, there are thousands of transactions happening at any given moment and terminals can go down. Cards can fail, cash can't
true. thanks!
I spent only a little time in there too, but checked it out for a bit while there was a lull. Maybe a couple hours each year. I just feel like the things I really enjoyed are slowly disappearing from East.
The developer panels, the arcade machine room, Jamspace, the good giveaways. I still really enjoy the event, but for me it is phasing out.
I make sure to bring my PAX money in the form of cash. It's the one way I can budget myself.
Not sure why they changed it up without any BETA testing. Should have run it alongside the Guidebook version for a few events to get the issues out. Or just continue to use Guidebook.
the app works even in airplane mode so as long as the app has downloaded all the relevant maps/events/etc you don't really need internet to use it

2014. What do I win?
Winner, Winner!
You've been awarded 17 points and a firm handshake! :P
Sadly it looks like this is my last pax it sucked when the arcade left they did it for free and pax charged them to do it, they got rid of jam space, there arent any good concerts they have what one this year? Foods gotten worse every uear, you cant even get a beer anymore...
dude i love you, also thank you for putting game underground on the map (my friends booth)
edit im stupid i thought that was this years booth, you have one for this year
Thanks! I've just grabbed what PA provides and color it in to make it easier to hit the floor quick so I can spend as much time in Tabletop as possible. I just finished this year's and it's by far the most barren I've ever seen. I think that has more to do with the fact that I've shifted so much attention to tabletop and will only be at the con for two days, but still. Yikes. I also left off all of the game shops since I always end up bumping into them anyway.
