Since no one's made a thread yet, figured I'd make one based off of format similar to the one sfford2008 created last year. It was super helpful for me, so I'd hate to see it not happen again! I'll update this when I see new events, but feel free to post below and I'll update the OP.

    Great list! I'm going to keep an eye on this. Looks like I found one that isn't on this list yet: Scary Game Squad, and it looks like I can't post a link :( lol. Saturday, Feb 29th, 7pm-11pm. It's on the leaguepodcast dot com website. I'm sure you can Google to get the link. :)

    All I saw on this was a Q&A recap :/ if more info is posted, I'll add it to the OP

    Thanks for posting the info. After 8 or 9 years of going to PAX East, we're going to try to go to an actual after party this year.

    While I agree that being insensitive is an issue, so is being oversensitive.
  • smorggiesmorggie Boston, MARegistered User regular
    I just updated the Pokecrawl thread, so sorry for being redundant but here is our Eventbrite link for tickets that will be available this Mon, Feb 3 at Noon EST. For "location" I would suggest putting Faneuil Hall, all the bars will be in that area. Thanks for helping us spread the word!

    That's pretty awesome. Sadly, pre-registration is already full.

    It was full last night. I was sad.

    Has anyone heard of a Warframe/Digital Extremes coming to Pax/hosting a party?

    Like the game, the chances are based upon a horrible RNG.

    We had 88 people last year, demo PC's, CIG employee guest appearances, and 100% of all proceeded go into the event, and all excess is raffled away as in-game items.
    (Sorry about breaking the link but I'm not permitted to post links with a new account.)

    PM me if you have additional questions as I have attended 4 years running.

    Standing Stones Games just announced a Boston Meetup for fans

    Here are the details:

    Where: Adventure Pub in Arlington, Massachusetts
    When: Friday, February 28th 7:00pm-10:00pm Eastern
    What: Free food and games, full cash bar available, Q&A, fun, swag, and surprises!

    People under the age of 21 are welcome at the venue as long as they are with a responsible adult. There will be plenty of non-alcoholic choices to purchase at the bar as well.

    There is free street parking in the area, and the venue is a 1/4 mile or so walk from public transportation.

    Additionally, Adventure Pub is a tabletop-focused gastro-pub, so make sure to bring any games you picked up at PAX East or elsewhere and play them with your group or others! Tabletop RPGs like Dungeons & Dragons or The One Ring RPG are also welcomed and encouraged here.


    https://theadventurepub.com/


    Location:
    190 Massachusetts Ave, Arlington, MA 02474 (Google Maps Link)

    We will be taking RSVPs through Wednesday, February 19th, 2020 here: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/SSGMeetupRSVP

    If you still want to RSVP after February 19th, please contact me directly through a Private Message here. We need to get a "final" head count to the venue a week prior.

    Members of the DDO and LOTRO development teams will be there, as will Executive Producer Rob Ciccolini. I'll be there of course. We'll have new swag, too!

    Expect time for both personal and general Q&A, free food, fun and games, and probably even a few secrets. If you are a streamer or broadcaster, we expect to have the capability to have you do something from the venue if you want. We're also exploring whether there is enough interest to set up a few computers to play DDO/LOTRO on.

    As noted in other threads, this event is canceled due to Square-Enix restricting travel for their devs out of Japan. However, we are currently working on putting together an unofficial fan gathering (no lottery required!) for that same day at a local restaurant.

    Once we have something more official within the next 24 hours, I'll post links here.
