Ok, PAX as of an hour ago has ended. Another awesome year has come and passed.

Let us share the epic pictochat we encountered.

qa_ds_scan.gif
Thats right, people sitting in the second Q&A may have seen this epic depiction of Gabe and Tycho on stage (saved the first one and combined them when the second came up). Thanks goto the user "Guantlet" For at least part of the picture (as I don't know who posted the first one, but its safe to say its)

I am glad I kept my DS on for the rest of the day, to save this little treasure.

I'M HALPING!

    Somebody in channel A during the Frontalot set was an EPIC artist. He/she/it drew a Mario and Snake that looked exactly like the box art.

    In the concerts, I overheard a guy trying to explain Pictochat to a girl who had never used it before.
    Girl: "So, I'm supposed to write something? What should I write?"
    Guy: "Well, usually people just draw weiners"
    Girl: "....umm.... " *uncomfortable silence*

    I haven't laughed so hard in a long time... There was a full chat room last night in Lounge C (second floor?) around 2 AM. Only nick I remember was Drifter. There were a couple moments were the entire floor broke out into hysterical laughter and it was glorious.

    Dicktochat for the funnies.

    I was haunted this year and last by spoink (katakana supoinku)
    She wrote poems about me, like "silly zyphlar-- you can't push clouds with dreams." and generally creeped me out with the whole "find the pictochatter" type stuff.

    I'll try post creepy screencaps when I finish uploading (plus regular pictochat caps)

    yeah I got plenty of pictochat pictures to post as well after everything gets uploaded...

    EDIT: Prepare yourself... I (well, mostly Rob (aka Woodoosticka)) just had to take pictures of anything interesting that came though pictochat over the weekend.
    So I have to warn everybody for random fucked up content, and a shit ton of pictures when you click the next spoiler... Honestly though, I haven't even looked at half of these, I just uploaded everything on my SD card and did it live. :P

    Hey I may of only drawn 3 penises out of that! I believe I only added those on to existing pictures :P sad panda :P. I couldn't help but take tons of pictures you had a 2GB SD Card that was barely used. :)

    Actually I did not draw any of those whoever did the pics of Gabe and Tycho are done quite nicely.

    alright. My friends had this guy, Terry, stay with us.

    Chris changed his name to some random Japanese characters and started talking to him on pictochat in the hotel room (but terry was in another part of the suite)

    so Chris poses as a Japanese girl and wants to meet him in room 708, an empty room. That was after 30 minutes of them talking. so Terry goes up to 708, and nothing.

    Sometime later she asks why he never came up? Terry said "i did. 708" Chris says "No! I said 808!" 808 was my friend Brians room.

    So Terry goes up to 808, and it's brian. They both come back down, and brian is confused as hell.

    so I come in, as a random japanese girl too. I put my name in Japanese and I told him I want to see him in toom 712, (another empty) and terry leaves immediatly to find her.

    My friend David comes in as "dana" and Jon comes in as "jennifer" and we're friends enjoying th econvention.

    He asked if we wanna go to the concert together. We say okay. And tell him to meet us at the elevators.

    He waited for some time, we got back in pictochat and told him we didn't see him. But to yell "Wooo hooo" after the first song.

    He did.

    we told him we were on the left side, with a red DS phat.

    So he goes and seriously LOOKS throught he crowd for her.

    we tell him to just yell our names because our DS was dying.

    and we shut them off. And no sooner than 2 seconds, we hear "DANA! JENNIFER! DANA! JENNIFER!"

    after Anamanaguchi, we head to the lounge and talk to him more posing. And he walked, up and down up and down, looking. We gave a description of "lighish darkish brown hair" and was near a wall.

    He thought there was this girl that was it, but it wasn't.

    and he found some dude, named Weasel in the pictochat. And got weasel in on the goose chase, looking for "dana and jennifer or thier japanese friends"

    It went on, straight into the next morning.

    We never told him.

    But I apologize Asian girl with a Red DS leaving the Homewood Suites at the same exact time as my friend terry, getting off the other elevator and heading to the concert.

    He thought it was you for a good while. that's why he followed you.

    Would that happen to be the penis-horse drawing? I was there to witness my friend's pictochat when that happen. She had drawn a horse, then someone had erased the horses head and put in a penis in its place. so someone starts laughing insanely loud, then my friend starts laughing, she shows all of us, we start laughing, another guy across the room starts laughing, and suddenly everyone knows who is in the pictochat now! it was glorious... the first dude who was insanely laughing had to get up and walk around because he couldnt take it.

    i had trouble getting it to work in the huge line on friday, but at the far cry 2 demo it worked pretty reliably. i think when there are too many dses playing and chatting it overwhelms the system.

    Yea, that was the first outburst of laughter. I was the one that replaced the horse's face with a penis, not thinking it would be that funny. I don't know what happened. It was a chain reaction.

    Oh heavens that was glorious. I was Drifter, and I remember a Benjamina and Jason in the room at that point. When I had the idea for that 9/11 picture I remember thinking, "yeah, that might be kind of funny; I suppose I'll just throw it out there." At PAX there's always some degree of laughter in the distance, so I didn't think much at first, but then it started spreading, and I heard the sounds of people showing other people something, the girl in front of me was craning over my DS asking what the hell was so funny, and then it broke into a chorus of laughter and someone shouted, "alright, who's Drifter!?" and I thought, "oh shit."

    The horse, Falcor, The Pope, Iwo Jima... you guys were hilarious and the whole session was brilliant. I seriously felt like we had won Pictochat right then and there; I half expected the credits to just start rolling up the DS screen.

    I'm pretty sure we just had so much 802.11x traffic and miscellaneous RF signals flying around that everything got budgeted less than it wanted. The range on the DS is a lot better normally, ~50' in open spaces.

    Edit: It's already been noted that we broke the local phone cell.

    I think it has a lot to do with the username, little hearts, and a bunch of horny guys all in one big room surrounded by women they can't bring themselves to talk to directly. Hey, ONE of the people on pictochat has to be a girl, right?

    Er, my tag is Jenny, and no one says anything. And god forbid do I use little hearts (unless someone uses them first, and mosta the time I don't use them even then). Perhaps I just happen to go into the chatrooms where guys care more about drawing penises than thinking with them.
