    I'm a bit of a filthy lurker on here, but I'm from Canberra and making the pilgrimage. I definitely need to make the effort to meet some folks, lest I spend PAX weekend alone and miss the whole point of it.

    I spent 5 years there studying at the ANU, does that count? I've moved back to Melbourne now, though.

    5 years at ANU can probably make you an honourary Canberra folk. ^_^

    South coast for me! Wollongong to be more specific :)

    Speaking of the South Coast - The Gong-Con (non electronic games) convention is happening on the Easter weekend if anyone is interested. It's small, but it's fierce :)

    Is anyone going to WinterCon at the EPIC this weekend? We're in Canberra, visiting from the US, and would love to meet up with PAX people before the show.

    WinterCon is CanCon's younger brother, with CanCon generally occurring in January.
    CanCon tends to have a wider variety of exhibits than WinterCon in my experience, with board game libraries and tournaments as well as the tabletop gaming.
    I tend not to go to WinterCon though since I'm not all that into tabletop gaming. Still worth a walk through though if you're in town.

    We had a good time just playing games. But it does seem like it's geared mainly for the minis.

    Not *that* kind of princess.

    So now that PAX is over is any one interested in getting together to hang out out and play some games or do some table top?
