    Notes: The Room has 2 double beds. I will be allowing housekeeping in daily. You can be 18+; I don't plan on having room parties or any other such craziness as I'm not certain I'll be in the room much beyond showering/sleeping. Please be clean and courteous. If you have any questions or whatnot, feel free to contact me. I'll be out of town for Comic Con (July 25-29th) so responses around then may be delayed.

    Date Arriving: August 24th
    Date Leaving: August 27th
    Spots available: NONE
    Notes: See below.
    My Gender: Female
    Your Gender: Female (?)
    Best Contact Method: adeutschmann@gmail.com, and lurking in irc.slashnet.org, #paforums_pax
    Cost: $275 for three nights, after taxes. Internet extra.

    Me: 28-year-old professional female. Non-smoking, good natured. Traveling from Victoria, BC to meet up with friends from last year, and to schmooze with fellow Guild Wars alumni. I do a bit of contract writing in the video game industry, but my day job is shuffling paper in a psychiatric facility.

    You: Female, non-smoking, willing to party elsewhere so that the hotel room can remain a quiet retreat. Not going to steal my stuff, throw parties in the room, or hog the bathroom all morning. Preferably with a sense of humour and a willingness to be considerate of me really needing 7-8 hours of sleep in order to stay sane. Some drinking a-okay, but if you're going to get hammered every night on concoctions made from Ballz and whatever moonshine is available, go puke on someone else's doorstep. If you plan on wearing cat-ears or a tail during the event, or use words like "sugoi!" and "kawaii" despite not being Japanese, just keep on walking.

    I know, I probably sound like a total drag, but I really do have a sense of humour. I'd consider a guy for the room, but you'd have to really convince me that it isn't going to be creepy.

    Hotel/Venue: Hilton Seattle (right next to the convention center)
    Date Arriving: Saturday
    Date Leaving: Sunday
    Spots available: As many as want to fit in the floor space :-) I'd estimate four, tops; first come, first served.
    Notes: It's two double beds, but they're both claimed already. You can make me an offer for my bed, but seeing as how I will have been up for about 60-some-odd hours straight at that point . . . good luck with that :-) Most likely, we'll be sleeping from 3AM to about 9AM, so that everyone gets a shot at the shower prior to PAX open
    My Gender: Two males, 26 and 27
    Your Gender: Doesn't matter, as long as you're cool with it. We're both pretty decent guys.
    Best Contact Method: email: christaylor80 [at] gmail.com
    Cost: $300 split equally amongst the occupants. Yeah, that's pretty damned high for one night in a hotel room, but . . . they said it has an underground passage to the convention center. I'm a sucker for gimmicks :-)

    Alright I've got a couple of spots available at my hotel...

    Hotel/Venue: Sheraton
    Date Arriving: Wed 22 Aug 2007
    Date Leaving: Mon 27 Aug 2007
    Spots available: 2+
    My Gender: Male / Male
    Your Gender: Doesn't matter
    Best Contact Method: PM
    Cost: $191/night (tax in)

    There are two of us in the room so far, we have two double beds. We're not planning on partying overly hard and don't really mind if you do. We don't really expect anyone to sign up for all five nights but would prefer someone staying four nights (Thursday-Monday). We'll split the cost evenly per night for however many we have. I would prefer just two but if you're a group of three it's not that big a deal if someone wants to crash on the floor.

    Best Contact Method: cell 1-503-WAY-ICY6
    Cost: $145/night split between all
    Notes: Just me and two of my long-time friends looking to save some money. We drink and smoke and cause ruckuses... ruckii? All 22-23 years old. No big parties in the room but definitely not quiet if that's what you are looking for. Ideal situation for someone who would otherwise be SOL and doesn't mind keeping odd hours or sleeping on the floor/chair/dresser. We're not ridiculously out of control, I promise, and we make wicked delicious cocktails. I will NOT be available to contact online in any way after posting this message (trust me, I wish I was) so I highly recommend calling my cell or contacting my friend Jon on IM username unperfekt1. He is one of the other people staying in the room, just let him know it's about this post and I'll leave it up to his good judgement. We aren't looking to be cramped or creeped out, but most people we have met at PAX are righteous dudes and if saving money turns out to be the more the merrier, so much the better.

    Okay, after multiple cancels, un-cancels, maybes, and cancels from friends, fellow paxers and my girlfriend,
    I am officially going alone, and not having anyone stay in my hotel room.
    That means, *drumroll* the first three people to contact me can stay for FREE.
    I have a couple previous posts in this thread, but to reiterate,
