Please vote in the Forum Structure Poll. Polling will close at 2PM EST on January 21, 2025.
I will try to be there! I have to work at noon, but I don't see why I can't get there at 11 and leave at 11:15 At least I'll be able to swap my buttons!

Also, anyone from Redmond traveling that way that can give a car-less fellow PAXian a ride If not, I can bus, just rather ride since it'd be quicker and easier.
Hey Snickers, I'll be coming from Sammamish and don't mind giving you a ride.

((Sorry if I seem incoherent on here... my mom called me last night and left a voicemail that she was in "trouble" on the way to South Dakota. I got the message at 11, then spent three hours calling every relative to see if she called them, then the police de[artment in South dakota to see if she had been arrested... she called me 20 minutes ago saying it was a practical joke, so I ended on 4 hours of sleep.))

Having driven through those states, I must say, that's a terrible practical joke.

No, seriously.
BTW, you can remove the ? next to my name. I'll be there.
I will try to push the time of my mother's birthday festivities an hour or two later so that I can drop by on my way north. However it would be best to leave me as 'maybe'
I did that to her 4 years ago (when i did have a GF), and it was great.
No, this will get a much better return. I just have to plan it.
4 hours of sleep wouldn't be so bad had I not gotten 2 the night before due to house issues.
It's just been a rough couple days. If i make it through tomorrow, it's my weekend.
((I will note that it would have been funny had i gotten on the phone, cause i would have panicked and she would have laughed and all that. the voicemail was unnecessarily stressful.))
Anyway, updating the ? off Houn and adding the +1 to Lyanth.

It's ok, Whytmage. I don't recall telling anyone my real name, nor did I bother trying to remember any one elses. I'm bad enough with names as-is, without trying to learn two per person.
I'll need to look up the bus routes to this place, but I'm totally in. x.x I'm shy, though, so I'l probably just wander around peeking at people until someone asks what the hell im doing. x.x
I'll be the guy with the bicycle. I'm biking from Westlake Center to Dicks. Since I don't frequent downtown Seattle all that much, I really hope there isn't too many hills
Emit: That would be great! What time are you taking off, and what are your time restraints as far as having to leave early or not? I'm free the whole day FYI.
Also, we should post what clothing we may be wearing, so its easier to recognize eachother :P I don't know what shirts might be clean at that point, so I'll post that later. I'll be wearing my dark green 1UP hat for sure, and blue jeans.

Those two aren't terrible far away from each other, and I believe that, despite the hilliness of the area, the path is actually fairly flat. Don't blame me though if there are

Yeah...
There's a reason they call it "Queen Anne Hill".
Of course, Dicks is Lower Queen Anne, so you don't have to bike to the top. Just half way or so.

As long as there is one person with announced clothes at the beginning, everyone will be able to find them.

Im game for the event on the 2nd (this saturday), and the one the day before PAX.
And yes, if I can manage to get one, I will be wearing an awesome nametag.
I was hoping I'd get to join y'all this Saturday, but the wife and I are supposed to look at an apartment at 11. Any idea how long this luncheon thing may last?

people might still be hanging around at 1:30 or 2. if you say you'll be coming later, i'm sure some people will hang around for you. last time it probably went from about 11 to 1, to give you and idea.
Looks like it may be more likely to last till 1:30 or 2. We've chosen seafair weekend, and both 520 bridges will be closed from 12:45 to 2:40 for a blue angels performance. Unless you wanna go around the lake, youre stuck seattle side till theyre done....and till the backed up traffic goes through
We'll have to see how it turns out. Since I've the whole day free, I don't mind staying longer!
Also, I was talking to people in IRC, and I thoughtof something. Its terribly last minute, but it never hurts to ask right?
Anyone want to go watch WALL-E sometime after the lunch? I haven't seen it yet, and really want to, but dislike watching movies alone, so haven't gone yet :P Anyone up? If not, thats fine. Just throwing it out there on the slim chance!

Boyfriend and I havent seen it or Dark Knight yet and want to see both....but unfortunately, our money is still a bit on the holy-shit-there-is-none side.

Also, your mom needs to learn what's funny and what isn't.
keep me pegged as a maybe, but if i am able to make it, i should be +1 ^^ i'm convincing the BF to attend xD

My impaired mind today can't be blamed either. I just have that bad of a memory.
That being said, I remember faces to all the handles, so I guess that's good.
I'm prolly going to swing by at like 11:30 or so in hopes that the most people will be there then.
QA dicks from what i saw was very individuals eating alone. so look for a group of people and it's likely them.

I caved, I joined...
you conquered.
Yay for all of you.
I has teh PAX button too, ifs ya want to see, let meh know..
I'm also knee deep in feathers right now as I start my wings for Pit.
Wish me luck!
I don't know if I can be any more excited about this...
Why, exactly, is it that I can pay the parking meter in front of Dick's with my debit card, but I have to buy a pre-cooked burger and shake with cash?

See you all there, in my Hoodie.
