I can't decide if i want to have an adventure and drive, or just fly. i do like adventures though. minus all the physical stuff like...walking and running.
I'm so going to be there, all the way from Port Coquitlam in the Tri-Cities (in Canada eh?), a good 3 hour drive, towing a trailer full of stuff, and maybe an extra body besides me and my brother.
I went to NWC 03, and it kicked ass. I'm building a 40k table for this, and god dammit, i'm not going to miss it!

Here's the driver in that.
Just a note that while the car has six seatbelts, three hours of that wouldn't be fun.
You should be able to recognize us as that old brown thing towing the weird green trailer behind it.
I really want to go, I live in Indiana, and I'm trying to get my dad to fly us out there.
Will we be able to meet the PA guys? I would love to meet Gabe/Tycho or whatever their real neames are ) I've been a fan for a long time, and this would be awesome if I could go to it.
I'm gonna drag another carload* of canucks down from Langley, BC. So if anyone in the BC lower mainland wants to hook up and make a convoy send me an e-mail. (EDIT: This is probably a more relevant post for the convoy thing: http://www.penny-arcade.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=2323006#2323006)
However, I think I'll hold off on the beer and see if I can sneak Yenner into a lonely bathroom stall and beat him up for his (Yes, bigrock is *that* good). :twisted:
I live way the hell up in Alaska, but what the hey, this isnt's something i'd readilly miss. a friend of mine are gonna fly to seattle and, hopefully, find a way to get to bellvue from there.
I'm coming from Alaska as well. I'm pretty sure I'll make it since it's still a few months off. Already looking up ticket prices and planning my money out to make it happen.
Round trip airfair from Anchorage to Seattle is about $210-$250, so it's not all that bad.
I'm going. Sounds like alot of fun. Plus I want to meet the guys that make Penny arcade. And a weekend surrounded in the trappings of geekdom sounds fun too.
Also going, though a newcomer to the board expressively to post concerns pertaining to the convention :P Not the best at video games of any sort but I love to watch them played, enjoy the field, and geekdom is always good.
I'm also dragging along my boyfriend, a few other gamers, and if we're lucky a few of my female friends as well.
My registration and my hotel room reservation are locked in and paid for, as well as my friends. All I need to do now is arrange transportation(flight) and secure a day and a half off around the event.
I'll be bringing my PC, it's an Athlon 1800+ with a GeForce 4 ti4200, I would upgrade it to bring it up to par for playing a smooth game of UT2004 but paying for the flight and a new motherboard with faster RAM, processor, video card, etc, is nearly undoable.
Maybe I should just build or buy a second one and put myself in debt. j/k
Assuming my summer job doesn't fall through (and I can save the needed money for airline tickets--my poor little 250cc motorcycle can't make it there from Las Vegas ), I'll totally be there to pwn your asses with Ganondorf at the SSBM tourney.
Wish I could haul my PC with me, but carrying that anywhere would be obviously very difficult, if not impossible, and my laptop is pretty worthless for games.
Despite the fact that this thread is titled "Who IS going?", I feel like sharing the unpleasant truth of my NOT going. As much as I would like to, I live in Denver, CO and don't exactly have the money to go on an excursion any time soon. However, if this becomes a regular thing, you can bet that you'll be seeing my occasionally hairy visage at the next one, for I will make it happen.

Where the fuck is my flying car already?

Bigrock Brewery all the way!
Ditto! Should be pretty interesting.
A: Um, we like to play games.
Here's the driver in that.

Keeping my fingers crossed!

*Carload = 4 People
I am now offically going. And I will bring you this conter-strike, and ye shal rue the day you asked for it.
You're Gonna Carry that weight...
(suggestions welcome)

I'll also bring my Warmachine stuff. (Bah, I know, mini gamer.)
Speaking of which i should get to work on that table.
After I get back from California. Maybe a little before.
Bringing along
BF-V
BF42
COD
Raven Sheild
Whatever other computer games that I have by then
I'm going with the guys over at Bellingham Lan Expirement.
I'm also dragging along my boyfriend, a few other gamers, and if we're lucky a few of my female friends as well.
You may recognize me at the con by this ID I'll be wearing on a lucasarts lanyard:
I'd probably be killed if I didn't show up. The cult frowns on poor attendance.
You might want to work on that sense of self-importance. It will be much easier to get to Seattle if you don't take it with you.

werd.
Damnit, I wanted to kick all your asses at UT2k4
Damn huge file size...
That's no fun! Without my self-importance, I'm nothing!
*smirk*
Honestly, I didn't intend it to sound nearly as self-important as that post came across. Forgive me?
