in PAX West
Hi all,
I've been on the site a long time but never joined the forum. I'm making it my goal in life to get to PAX haha. I live in california so I've never looked too seriously at it, and now information's all over the place so im hoping I can figure things out here
1) When do sign ups usually start?
2) Can I get three, single day passes? or do you have to get the 4-day pass to get multiple days? (It'd be cool to spend a day visiting around seattle itself too)
3) Is it REALLY difficult to get a pass? I've gone to comic con so I know how it generally works for big conventions
I appreciate it

2) PAX Prime is 4 days. As of this past year, you could either get a 4-day pass, or you could get single day passes for each of the 4 days. Both ways work to be there all 4 days. It's cheaper to get single day passes if you'll be there less than 4 days, and 4-day passes are the first to sell out anyhow
3) depends on how you define difficult. http://bit.ly/PAXSellOutDates
2. Yup! You can buy a pass for each individual day you'd like to attend or go with a 4 day to use all days of the event (that is, if you can get a hold of one, they sell out the fastest of all badge types).
3. The hardest part is getting them before they're sold out. Just keep your eyes peeled constantly. The past couple of years they've had a virtual queue system you have to wait in prior to actually being able to purchase that badges. It can take a while to get through, but if you make it into the queue odds are you'll be able to buy a badge. Though, it's not guaranteed.
