    If you guys are talking about who I think I am.

    I think I passed her on the way out yesterday. She was pretty much hanging all out. It was pretty skeevy.

    The Diablo 3 demo is pretty tame as far as content.

    well obviously. But I mean, does CoD and the like not fall under 18+ in the US?

    I don't know how the rating system is over there. I didn't mean to imply porn by saying 18+.

    Don't try to understand our ratings. We give a big pass to violence, less so to sex.

    Sorry if it's been asked but what's this about two people getting banned at PAX? Anyone know about that.

    One guy use to be on TechTV and pulled down his pants and did a dance on stage or something. Dude got a life ban for that.

    And the other is the woman who won that contest to dress up as Lollipop Chainsaws character, she was fine for first day in the cheer leader costume, then when she did another costume on day two she was asked to change, went back to the original one and was still asked to change or leave from what I hear.

    So curious to hear if anyone saw first hand or whatever.

    The Lollipop Chainsaw character (Juliet) wore an outfit on Saturday that was revealing and an incident occurred so she had to change out of that costume. I don't know if she came back after that on Saturday but on Sunday, she was here and dressed in a more conservative costume

    The other guy that was banned is a guy named Nathan Barnett. He's an actor/comedian/dancer who had a character named Kieth Apicary that's a complete socially inept video game nerd. He was up to random antics during the con, and apparently had some kind of unmentioned agreement with the Rooster Teeth guys during their panel where he would interrupt with some kind of bit.

    As I understand it Robert had him removed for being excessively disruptive.

    I saw that costume on Friday, and was a bit embarrassed for the poor woman forced into it.

    Yeah we are missing at least 4 nerds from the photo (page 49 as the thread title indicates) but it was still awesome to see you all there! And after fancy dinner! And all over town! Gosh I love PAX. Hate waiting another year but I am not rich enough to be bi-coastal yet.

    Anywho, I am seated outside the closed Starbucks in the Westin lobby for the next hour bsing on my netbook before I head over to South Station for my bus home. It was a magical time and with any luck I will be here again next year.

    Really sad that I couldn't make it out to see you all this year, especially since I ended up traveling anyway albeit I traveled so I could get transfered from hospital to hospital for potential surgery.

    I expect many stories and pictures so I can live vicariously!

    Nothing like seeing kotaku commenter complaints about the booth babe policy to remind me why I don't read kotaku more often.

    Though Rorus, she wasn't forced into it, she's apparently a "professional cosplayer. "

    yes some of us were not wise enough to get a friday pass and are not in the picture

    it's probably for the best

    there is already a write up on the costume stuff at http://www.destructoid.com/two-fun-people-were-asked-to-leave-pax-east-225430.phtml it might be nsfw. that's the pikachu/zangoose girl, I've seen her before.

    You could have definitely gotten into the panel without a pass.

    This is my third PAX, and I've yet to pick up any kind of funk.

    I did total my friend's car on the trip back in 2010, so that kinda counts maybe.
