PAX Prime carpool thread

edited August 2011 in PAX Archive
Figured it might be a bit more proper if we pooled all future carpooling thread requests and anything more off-topic into one thread; didn't see anything in the search, so I figure this is good to go. I don't feel like driving alone (for boredom reasons), so i'll also be joining in on this. Fill out the form below (either "I NEED A RIDE!" or "SPACE AVAILABLE!"), post it and reply to each other via PM and give out your contact information per your comfort level.

I NEED A RIDE!
My location (city and state/province, zip code, etc.) -
Spaces needed -
How much luggage/gear/etc. you'll have -
Any payment? (gas, food, trades, etc.?) -

SPACE AVAILABLE!
Coming from -
Planned route(s) -
I'm leaving for PAX on -
I'm going back home on -
Seats available -
Cargo capacity -
Requests, etc. -

Please include for both entries any pertinent information you find important to note. Have a good one, stay safe, and see you at PAX!

    No worries from me, as long as people have a need to fill their vehicles up, it should be fine. Thanks anyways Moe!

    Because you're just looking for a ride up, I *might* be able to help out. I leave Tacoma normally about 4:30 PM to head to class at Seattle U, and I have class thursday night. If we could meet in Tacoma, probably a little earlier than that, I could drop you off whereever you need to be in Seattle. Send me a PM if you're interested.

    I started a thread about a carpool down to Portland for the Protomen gig at Lola's, because I won't be able to see them on Friday night. I'm sure there are other people who love the Protomen but won't be going to the after-party Friday. For those people, are any of you interested in carpooling down to Portland?
