Market Research

TimHart

Hi! I’m doing market research on gaming shows (E3/PAX/etc) and we’re
looking to pick the brain of a few people that attend PAX. If you would like
to help out, please send me a PM. I’ve gone ahead and talked to Robert Khoo
and he says it’s cool.

Robert Khoo

Hey guys - Tim's a buddy of mine, and it would be mucho appreciated if you could help him out. I'll sticky this a little later today. Thanks!

What kind of info can I provide you with?

I just off the phone with one of the interviewers (Tahresh (sp)) and it was an enjoyable experience. The interviewer was good at the whole interviewing thing. The questions were good questions.

I am afraid I might have sounded like a Mike and Jerry stalker a few times though. I was talking about how interesting they are, and about how I like to listen to them talk and how I like to see them in person and stuff.

So I would like to make it clear that I think Mike and Jerry are awesome, but I do not want to anally invade either of them, I do not have any pictures of them on the walls of my room, and I do not have a shrine where I worship them.

Yeah, my interview was painless as well. If it helps PAX in any way, I'm glad.

I emerged unscathed! In fact I would say it was a rather pleasant converastion! Glad I could help!

Officer

Very pleasant fellow, he was. Made the interview quick and painless.

Same here, I liked his questions.

I agree with all others. The interviewer sounded very nice, made sure I said what I ment and ment what I said, and was very lenient with my crazy schedule that's going on...

If this was eBay, I would give him an A++++.

This only makes you sound more guilty. Confess the location of your secret love lair shrine! CONFESSSSSSS!

To add to this chorus, the interviewer was personable. I'm sure I sounded like a freak too, but then isn't that what PAX is all about?

I keep it in the same room as my Jack Thompson voodoo dolls and my John Romero blow up doll.

I had only been awake maybe five or ten minutes when my call came in.

i messaged you, but didn't get any message in return.

Just did mine, and it was probably one of the best phone conversations I have had in a while. lol

I would agree with most of these posts (You weirdos and your shrines)

The interview was enjoyable. I think he seemed a bit suprised on some of the information I was able to recall about pax. I still remeber us emptying out the vending machine there at pax 05,06. It would be nice if they could rent a few vending machines for pax or have some out side coin op do it.

I think we need a vending machine for the BYOC. :P

I think we're stuck with the WSCTC's retail outlets when it comes to anything edible or drinkable.

Or walking elsewhere.

There are a few vending machines there, but they are crazy expensive
