    Not to distract from the task at hand (drinking) but what games are people packing for this fine evening? I don't want to be the dork in the corner waiting for someone to play the new space invaders on psp. Which I will totally play. Just saying.

    Also I'll be there at 7 if anyone wants to start early. Look for the guy that resembles my avatar, 'cause ummm, well that's me.

    I'll be there 10-ish, maybe later. Bringing my DS with TWEWY, Brain Age (love sudoku), and puzzlequest. I answer to Steve if you look for me.

    Oh bummer...i bought Space Invaders for the bf a couple weeks ago on DS so rest assured he'll bring it. You might have to pry him from the old school arcade game tho =P Thanks for the reminder to pick upa roll of quarters - you can find me by the pinball machine, esp my favorite - The Addams Family.

    Myself I'll be bringing all like 10 games I have, from Brain Age, Super Mario, and Animal Crossing to Final Fantasy and Ouendan (which I havent even played yet! I know - sadsauce...)

    I'll be packing the following, and I suck at pretty much all of them:

    Mr Driller
    Meteos
    Advance Wars Dual Strike (that's gotta be a tough one to play drunk in a crowded bar)
    Mario Kart
    Puzzle Quest
    Geometry Wars
    Mario Party
    World Ends with you

    I don't really have much on my PSP that's multiplayer friendly so I guess I'll just leave it in the hotel for this excursion. That and I'm already running out of pockets what with the DS, phone and Camera.

    Listen. And understand. That Misterioso is out there. He can't be bargained with. He can't be reasoned with. He doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And he absolutely will not stop, ever, until you are dead..drunk.

    Hmm, I think I will try to make it to this. Was bummed that I couldn't get a hotel (have to pay for things much quicker then planned for), but I can drive up to Downtown to hang and and have a couple drinks. I'll bring a decent selection of wares, but I'm not far in anything :(

    And Advance Wars would be interesting...

    Ummm...

    It was supremely excellent as always. Big shout-outs to our new friends from Chicago: Shannon, Chris, Liz, and Freedom!

    did you at least meet some other paxers there?

    by midnight all organization was out of the window. most people had a good buzz going and started doing their own thing, pinball, more bars, dicks drive in, etc.

    oh yeah, big thanks to the peeps from Kongregate for showing up and representing themselves. what were those shots called again? :)

    Hmmm, we were mostly in the back room around that time (midnight), but left for Dick's within 20min. The Chicago crew decided to leave, and I think Steve was around a bit after that.

    Had a great time as well, discussing the finer points of STALKER over beer was a blast and I can ever get past that whole "you look like Denis Dyak" thing (just don't ban me from everything). Already looking forward to the 3rd annual extravaganza next year!

    Some friends and I decided to go, but we ended up driving (and then walking) around for about 20 minutes and couldn't find the damn place! Eventually we just gave up, because we suck. But I think we're going to try again this weekend (or next, I'm still a bit sick).

    Is there anyone left in Seattle who would like to meet up with us?
