    Just received an email for the IGN community team pertaining my attendance to the ADR1FT and IGN event except they listed the event as Friday at 4pm when the tickets I got said Thursday at 4pm I emailed them back for confirmation

    Edit: actual tickets list Friday now. My email does say the event is Thursday though. Guess they screwed up originally and it's really Friday.

    I was actually looking forward to that one -because- it was thursday. 4pm friday is inconvenient timing for sure

    Me too, I can't do Friday as I'll be doing other stuff at PAX, but Thursday would have been perfect

    Hey, is anyone going to the Republic of Gamers Party from the Boston Park Plaza hotel? Does anyone want to carpool or split cab costs with me and other person?

    that menu looks really good. Willing to meet up with people to grab some food on Saturday and some beer.

    Anyone staying in the Residence Inn Boston Downtown/Seaport going to ASUS & PC Gamer Party wanting to split cab price over there?

    If anyone is in town early, and needs something to do on Thursday I have a 4pack of Museum of Science passes to give away. (includes Exhibit Hall, Mugar Omni Theater, and Planetarium passes).
    I work near the Westin (next to the BCEC), so I can meet to hand you the tickets if you want 'em. (DM/Tweet/Facebook me if you're interested)

    Hey, is anyone going to the CIG party? I am so frustrated with the ticket shenanigans. The email says tickets will be available to print out March 5th. I have scoured the website, and I can't find anywhere that has a ticket listed to print out. I see my payment stub, but that is it. I sent in a help request, but they said they wont get back to me for 2 weeks. I tried asking in their game chat, nothing..I tried the forums..nothing..

    Someone helpppppppppppppppppppppppp ^_^ ty!

    Do most of these venues allow you to bring in your backpack/bag since I'll be going directly from the convention center?

  • rascrushrascrush Registered User regular
    I would say if they have a coat check they prob would allow you to check your bag there if not then no. Maybe call and find out. I know I just plan on taking a shuttle to my hotel 1st and dropping my bag off easist way to do it.

    As I recall from the past: yes. Heck, they gave out bags at the Wolfenstein party last year.

    Those were cool bags too

  • KumaKuma Registered User regular
    For the most part, the venues are cool about bags as long is it isnt youre entire luggage.

    I can tell you that Royale has a big o coat check. I don't recall having back packing being an issue at all last year. Here's my plan (in case anyone wants to meet up)... I'm going to Rock Bottom around 8:00 on Friday night. The place is big, fairly cheap and 2 blocks from Royale. I'm going to head into Royale around 9:30... that way I can scope the joint out before they let the everyone else in. Hopefully I bumped into a couple of you either at Rock Bottom or Royale. It's going to be butt ass cold Friday night, so bundle up!

    I may join up but not sure. Right now it seems more people want to try Twitch.

    With the way the weather is going to be tomorrow night, i think I may be leaning towards the shortest line

    I preferred it in April simply for the nicer weather. I will def be using the coat check wherever I end up/stagger to.

    The later in the year PAX is the more happy I am. The past few years, we've been spoiled. :)

    Everyone enjoy PAX! I'll see some of you tonight at Royale. I only have a Sunday pass to PAX... oh well, better than nothing at all. Being at work right now blows... super jealous.

  • Burns94Burns94 Registered User new member
    I know the Borderland party is sold out, but they said they'll be handing out tickets during PAX. Does anyone know where their booth is? I looked at the map but couldn't figure what's the best place to go to?

    Thanks!

  • craiolacraiola MARegistered User regular
    So what's the best way to get to royale from the westin?

  • Sudds27Sudds27 Registered User regular
    Just take a cab. 10 to 15 bones for sure. It's fairly close.
