    I also can't make it logistically or monetarily (new jerb doesn't start till the week after PAX)
    Just seemed like a good segway to ask if any of y'all wanted to play some games at PAX.

    Cool to know I'd be welcome though.

    beyond everyone joking, I don't know about everyone else, but the reason I go to PAX is primarily hanging out with everyone from the forums

    batsignal people, PM people, get a phone number and text. I, at least, will pretty much always be down

    Speaking of not coming to this thing without people to vouch for you. While I'm interested in this event I think it would be weird showing without having met at least some of y'all in real life ever before.

    Thusly I wouldn't mind meeting some of you this year at PAX East in a non fancy dinner type setting so as to possibly make this event next year.

    Should I just throw up a signal in chat or will y'all be too thoroughly engaged to check chat while at PAX?

    I think you're overstating it and ignoring the huge difference between someone who posts semi-regularly for six years and a random 1st post spam account. The dinners are how a lot of people first meet other people from the boards.

    The dinner is how i meet a bunch of you in the first place, then hung out next day at PAX, friended on facebook and bnet, etc..

    The dinner is my favorite part of pax and the part I miss the most.

    I only knew the nyc crew when I went, and ended up meeting a bunch of other folks I have known for some time on the forums (like the 32 fam) that I consider close friends to this day.

    If you have the funds and the time it is always worth.

    Note that there is a less expensive karaoke event that happens in a very divey dive bar where a shark guards the door... maybe thats in the budgetary wheelhouse?

    ugh u guys. I have a few announcements anyways so listen up

    @y2jake215 can you please formally indicate your attendance here by this week y/n

    @AresProphet same to you

    To everyone: I will be reluctantly getting Venmo set up and then I will send you messages indicating how and what you shall transfer to me ahead of time, and by when. I have not heard anything about deposits or whatnot but I expect to get clarity on that. I will be asking for prepayment on the individual prix fixe cost plus 19% gratuity and 7% tax, along with other fees that come to my attention. The reason is that I will put the entire cost on my card at the end of the night, and by fucking golly, if I have to shuffle through cash in the restaurant like a fucking medieval merchant you will not be leaving Boston with all your limbs attached.

    Anyway XOXO hugs kisses

    What's the harm in a tiny little $360 going missing. Momma needs a switch and breath of the wild. Those waiters didn't need a lavish 20% gratuity anyway.

    Tips are just violent redistributions of wealth, the very antithesis of what we should be striving for at such a fancy dinner.

    The same is true for the $0.70 HakksTax

    Naw this is so fancy the noblesse oblige kicks in, as does the requirement to throw in non-English phrases to demonstrate sophistication.

    I am pleased to report that everyone (EXCEPT ONE PERSON) has paid up. Man, ahead of deadline and everything. You guys are on it :+1:

    Some additional business: who will be in Boston Thursday night? We will be and just tryna get a sense

    And: anyone want to go for a short run on the Emerald Necklace Friday morning? Thinking a 5k, probably. Every year we mean to do it and every year it's either balls achingly cold or we did too much drinky drinky at fancy dinner the night before so we bailed. This year tho *shakes fist* baw gahd

    Friday looks like ball aching cold btw. I mean I don't run with my blown out knees but just a warning.

    Current forecast put Friday's high at 40 and low at 18.

    I mean it isn't as cold as two years ago but again there aren't 8 foot piles of snow everywhere either.

    I'll be there Thursday and there is no force on this earth that could get me to run in the morning.

  • SixSix Caches Tweets in the mainframe cyberhex Registered User regular
    Hilariousness aside, we're not driving up until Friday morning and will be staying out in the burbs, otherwise we'd totally be down.

    However, if anyone in NYC wants to have a drink in NYC on Thursday to celebrate not being in Boston yet, I'm down.

    I will be down at the convention center Thursday evening to hit up the pre PAX board game night in the Westin

    If all is going well for me I'll actually try to be in Cambridge earlier than that to check out a new arcade bar.

    (Friday morning I got my own workout plans up in Salem)
