    I know where Siletz is and I am coming from Portland. This will be my first PAX.

    Is it pretty easy to meet cool new people? Also, whats this pub crawl I have been hearing about?

    It's really easy to meet new people. I'd say 90% of everyone is a real gamer. The other 10% are...

    Anyway, yeah, the pub crawl. Here you go: http://forums.penny-arcade.com/showthread.php?t=66247

    Portland guy, right here.

    I'll be hitting up the Debate & Discourse pre-pubcrawl get together, and probably joining up to the main pub crawl later.

    I'm also taking the noon train from Union Station in Portland instead of the later PAX Train trip because I wanted to get into Seattle when it was still light out.

    I'm one part of a trio of Eugenians driving up tomorrow.

    We are hard to recognize as from Eugene in that we are neither dirty nor hippy.

    We are, however, very fond of ducks.

    I thought it was a Eugene city ordinance that any gatherings of three or more people must include at least one dirty, dirty hippy.

    Oh crap, the city mandate. I totally forgot about that.

    I'm gonna have to get a rasta wig and dunk one of our passengers in patchouli.

    That should get us past the border inspection.

    Just make sure that your decoy asks the border patrol if they have any spare change and you will be in the clear.

    Myself and a friend are coming up from Klamath Falls. Course, we are driving, figured it would be less hassle for transporting our computers than taking a train up. This will be our third year doin the PAX thing.

    I know for certain, besides BYOC, we are doing the Mechaton thing. Yay for Giant Fighty Mini Lego Robots!

    I'll be joining the pub crawl midway, immediately following the Pre-PAX Dinner, and I am from Eugene.

    My pals and I will be there for the first half (maybe the second also) so if anyone see's me we should drink some tasty beers. I'll be rockin a mohawk or a fedora!

    I'm from Eugene, but I'm going to be heading up from Portland Friday early morning. Visiting the fam. This is my first time at Pax, and I haven't been to Seattle in years. I'm am excited. Anyone interested in carpooling? My car or yours, just seems prudent to save some gas money, parking trouble, and not fall asleep behind the wheel.

    You can reach me at pixltrixtr@yahoo.com. My name is Matt.
