    Hotel bound on PAX Saturday,
    I exclaimed "Khoo is my Sensei!"
    So if memes make great shirts,
    And Pod Six is Jerks,
    Then Moe, Khoo and I had our day.

    NEED A PLACE
    Date Arriving: Friday
    Date Leaving: Sunday (morning checkout for me)
    Spots Needed: 1
    Notes: I'm 16, I'd be happy to crash on the floor or whatever if you already have a room. I don't care if you drink or do drugs, but I don't want smoking in the room. I'm hoping cheapish(50 bucks a night?), so could be a 5th?, but like I said, I'd be happy to sleep in a sleeping bag I provide on the floor and take a little bit of the financial pressure off of you.

    I live in Seattle so would be able to get a car if people wanted to go on an adventure, I just didn't want to deal with parking/driving at 3am when I could stay downtown instead.

    All I really need is somewhere to park a sleeping bag from 3am-9am Saturday and Sunday mornings ;)

    My lady and I are attending our 2nd ever PAX (had a blast two years ago!) and we have got plenty of space to crash for those that don't mind the floor or air mattress. The duplex is located just up the street from the puyallup bus station, which is approximately 40 mi. from the Convention center (50 mins. drive time) . We will be driving/attending all three days and have a descent sized truck so you are welcome (and encouraged) to carpool if you would like. Both of us are Xbox360/Wii/PC/PS3/Herb friendly:mrgreen:. Although we lean more on the side of 360 (expect HALO and Soul Calibur4 nightly). Price will be pretty cheap compared to hotels and we will be leaving early every morning after breakfast. If you are interested hit us up we'd love to have ya.

    Hey I'm James, 16, from Seattle, or Whidbey Island rather, so commuting is not the best option, and I am wondering if anybody is looking for a roommate for the duration of PAX. I am open to Hotels, Motels, Houses, or Apartments, I can't think of any other housing structures, and I will help financially with the cost of said housing.

    If you are open or have any ideas then let me know. They main thing is that I can't get a Hotel because I am under 18, and my friends that live in Seattle are leaving during PAX.

    -Respectfully,
    James

My proposal is this, it would be greatly appreciated if someone could book us a room in their name at (this is preferably for people staying at the Hilton but at this point any of the PAX hotels will do) we will pay you cash in full at check in and will even throw in a dinner for you if you'd like as a thank you for helping us out. I understand this is a pretty insane request but we are pretty desperate at this point. If anyone has any other ideas for us that is appreciated too.
