@gamefacts - Totally and utterly true gaming facts on the regular!
It's nice that it won't fall on Labor Day weekend this year.(or for the next 6 years)
why, because you want to go to that super overpriced, half assed music festival, bumbershit? labor day was actually really convenient this year because it only required me to take off the thursday and friday before pax, saving a vacation day.
I won't argue with airfare though. That always goes up on Labor Day.
I meant the city in general was more crowded and bascially ran out of hotel rooms. I personally got the PAX rate on my room but I imagine there were plenty of people who didn't book in time and had to pay a lot. Hopefully next year Robert can secure an even larger block of rooms.
limed for truthiness
Fix'd.
Seriously? Between Bum-Shoot, Burningman, vacations, family reunions, and all the crap people do on the last long weekend of Summer, I would hate to wave good bye to PAX attendance because it wants to compete for the hearts of an already Labor Day conflicted populous.
August is an Awesome month - please keep it nicely sandwiched between Defcon and Laborday.
Kudos, sir.
I got a room about 15 minutes outside of Seattle for about $88 a night, drove to the convention center and paid for parking which was about $13-16 a day, all in all, saving myself nearly $150 from what last year cost.
Even if it is up... will it be running at 2 or 3 am when I finally leave PAX for the night?
sure, until it crashes! lol. i think there's a good chance it'll run late, considering trains in most major cities run 24/7 and seattle's busses, though limited, are operational 24/7

I've heard an odd mix of good and bad with the pick up space.
Had a friend there that muscled into my room when the guy who was letting people crash at his place started getting a bit touchy feely...
But I loved room crashing with people at 06 PAX! we had a blast and a big unconventional LAN room to room as well.

BA: Forum regulars are generally awesome people, aren't they? :-)
2) Look for the "Hotel Rooms: Need one/Share One" thread that usually pops up after registration opens.
3) Have fun.
He does realize after about 30 hours on the road that the two of you will likely want to kill each other, right? And that's only after the first half of the trip (unless you guys are moving to the Seattle area, which is cool).
CCST will help out, because you'll have dozens of people to share the insanity with.
the ride out is tough, for sure, but the real hell is the ride home. any long ride home after a great event always blows.
and you won't be able to rent a hotel room, they're all 18+, but if you find someone over 18, you'll be allowed in.
Yeah, I'll probably end up having to stay in a room with someone I know off of Live. And about the long ride, I was planning on lots of Coca-Cola and 6 hour energy. I'll probably be crazy energized when I get there, but hey the trip is worth it. It'll also have to be a straight trip both ways. We'd have to leave Thursday Morning or Thursday night and drive straight on through to get there by Friday and my friend has school on Monday so we'd have to drive all the way home on Sunday. But we might get lucky and he wouldn't have to go.
lol, getting back to class on monday is a crazy dream. you will be so tired on sunday night, i can't imagine anyone driving that far, then getting to class some 14 hours after pax ends.
NEW ALBUM OUT, NOW WITH 100% MORE SHEEP!, have a listen will ya
