    I'm from Massachusetts and I decided that I needed to go to my first PAX before the PAX East Coast next year. Needless to say I am very excited.

    If the mystery Virginia person doesn't edit their point with their name on it by the time I get out home from work tonight (about 10:30pm EST) I'm going to delete it. Feel free to resubmit it, but it's pointless to have a point without a name of some sort.

    I put my mark on Baltimore.

    The map has the ability to mark a path, why don't we draw the routes on the map? Do you think
    the map will look too busy?

    The paths don't draw according to roads, they just draw straight lines. Please don't draw paths, I'll just end up deleting them.

    There are a few. Macca (who's an enforcer) and Cuzza. They're on the map and are from opposite coasts. I'm sure there's a few others, but nobody else comes to mind right now.

    Hi all,
    My name is Laura (as you may be able to tell...somehow) and I would really like to attend PAX this year.

    I'd like to know if there is anyone else here who has attended or will be attending from the UK! Additionally, I had a quick look through the FAQ and it says pre-reg stuff is posted a couple of weeks before the event - surely this would not be enough time for foreign attendees? I could only assume that they'd be posted earlier OR it was only open to US residents.

    I thought it would be best to find out before I started organising things!

    I went to PAX last year and I wrote an international travellers guide to it. I'll be posting that again soon only in a more up to date format along with tips I picked up whilst I was there.

    There is usually a significant number of people from the UK going to PAX, myself included, so you won't be alone in travelling to a little further than most.

    My tip right now is to wait for the super-early registration for tickets. Being from the UK will mean they will not post anything to you ticket wise as you are not from the US. Instead you'll have to pick it up from 'Will Call', which is an admin area for the expo. More on this within the International Travellers guide.

    I just poked my pin in there about a block and a half from PAX. Unfortunately, my fear of gamers is causing me to move away. Come June, I'll live somewhere on the east side...

    Guess it's time to start organizing the Cross Lake Washington Super Trip!

    Just a reminder, if you place a point without a name attached to it, it will get deleted. Three of these have popped up in the last day or so. If one of these was you, you'll need to re-enter your point (and don't forget your name this time).
