    I attended the Curse party last year and the line was quite long and I do agree that people were just coming in off the street without RSVP's to get in. After saying all that I really enjoyed the party. The music was good and a lot of people were dancing. I did not have much trouble getting a drink maybe 3- 5 minute wait max, and heck they were free all night which was pretty awesome.

    I'd expect another long line this year so depending when you show up if you don't want to wait 1+ hours to get in, and the room was getting quite packed at times, it might not be your cup of tea.

    I am still working on getting the info on sign ups/when this will be. I will keep the thread updated once I get some info.

    Bought a ticket for the Sanshee event. That shall be my first PAX party, and it looks to be within reasonable walking distance (20-30 minutes according to Google Maps). Not a bad place for it.

    I'm a website!

    Good deal! Yeah, the line to get in was pretty ridiculous (it took me and my friends probably 45 mins - 1 hr.), but met some real cool guys (from Borderland Gaming (not Borderlands the game) and have been keeping in touch with them since. Didn't have any issues with getting drinks (just remember to tip the bartenders well and they'll remember you next time, that's what I did).

    This is why we can't have nice things!

    Yep, my husband and I are waiting on Curse party info. I think that will be our party of choice. Unless there's an Irrational party at the same time, then we're gonna have a problem. :P hehe

    So we are all in the same boat. From the curse post before I would be willing to guess we will hear something tomorrow or next week.

  • TriiipledotTriiipledot Registered User regular
    If anyone doesnt do the party thing (sorry if I shouldnt post this in this thread) would people be willing to meet at a bar for some CaH?

    nice thanks i think im going to check out the curse party this year.

  • JimmyWildJimmyWild Austin, TXRegistered User regular
    Man i swore i wasn't going to go to any parties this year. Hungover PAX isn't fun lol. But if Curse is in the Seaport i don't have to worry about getting home safe. Specially if Wildstar is involved. :D

  • JayDfromMAJayDfromMA MARegistered User regular
    Looks like they will make it easier to get in this year with the printed tickets and all. Sucks it isn't open bar. I can see that being cost prohibitive.

  • KrisstaKrissta New HampshireRegistered User regular
    Awesome! Signed up and updated the OP. :) PAX PAX PAX!

    Pretty sure the Curse party at Prime had printed tickets and the line was pretty terrible. Fun when I got in though.

    Is the Curse party actually 21+? It says NOWHERE that I can see that is is explicitly 21+, as one of my friends is 20.

    If you can point to a big oversight that'd be cool too.

    Curse is official! Hallelujah, RSVP'd myself and a few friends. See y'all there!!!

    Looks like MAD Catz will be posting extra tickets "soon" according to their Twitter page. If anybody missed out on that, like myself, keep an eye on the ticket page and/or their Twitter page!

  • kohanaikohanai Registered User regular

    Turbine is a meet and greet basically. Probably the tamest of the parties, but has the best food

    Cool, see you there. Turbine party is line to get it, but only a little one compaired to everything else. Once in, it pretty laid back. Lots of food usually, bar is never a wait.

    RSVP'd for Curse. If I can somehow drink enough over the course of PAX that I'm unconscious the entire twelve-hour train ride home, I'm going to be thrilled.
