If that's all there is my friends, then let's keep dancing
I recommend to everyone to CALL IN instead of booking the room online, as we also got some stupidley high price... but if you call the 800 number you and you tell them it's for pax and you tell them what price you're supposed to get... you'll get it!
and HOLY CRAP.... did you guys see Tyco sayin' that the doubletree is almost full up?? I remember last year we booked our room in like... july... and there were still plenty of rooms left....
wow man... wow.... this year is gonna ROCK!

ANYONE WHO INTENDS ON POSTING ANYTHING HERE READ THIS UPDATE COMPLETELY!
List is updated and cleaned of all the crap that you guys have been cluttering with your posts.
When I made this list, it was so that people would have a quick and concise list in the first post where they could browse the names of who was going and what their situations were. This is the entire reason in the first post that I included a SIMPLE guideline for how to list your info, so that it would be clean and efficient on the front page. Look for a name, find the info. SIMPLE.
However, it seems that at least 50 out of 58 of the people who are on the front page decided to either completely disregard the guideline, or be as unhelpful as possible in their posts, and as a result this whole thread and the front page became a giant copy/paste, which doesn’t help anyone in anyway. After at least an hour (if not longer) of cutting crap and editing, the list is down to the info that has actually been provided so far by people’s posts, and hopefully THAT’S HOW IT WILL STAY!
Personally, I’m probably not going to attend PAX. Other than the facts that I don’t drink often like people here seem to, don’t party like people here seem to love to, and wouldn’t be going with any friends or people I know, I’d probably only be in the console free play room the entire time, except for maybe a couple theatre events. Combine that with the fact that I’ll probably be tight on some finances (pending certain situations), and that the nearby hotels will probably be booked completely by the time I’m remotely sure of my finances. Plain and simple, I don’t think I’d enjoy PAX like anyone else does, as much as I want to believe I would. Sometimes I don’t think I’d fit in at all despite loving and living interactive entertainment, sacrificing parts of my life for the career end of it, and sharing interests of the like with others going to the expo, and while that’s maybe just me “rambling on†with issues I have, nobody has shown or convinced me otherwise.
So what if I don’t go to PAX? Honestly nobody is going to be sad about it I’d wager so it’s not much of an issue, but you could at least be courteous enough to realize that I’m taking the time to try and maintain a SIMPLE list here, and I would appreciate it if from now on, you use the format I’ve listed out THREE TIMES in bold on the front page, and leave all the bitching, bantering, taunting, coaxing, and bragging to the rest of your post, SEPARATE OF THE LIST INFO! I honestly don’t have time to deal with that crap anymore.
If you think that’s too harsh, that’s fine. First post to not follow this new guideline gets this thread deleted outright. I don’t care who you are or if you actually give a damn about this list, if you’re joking around, if you didn’t read the bold lines in the first post, if you don’t want this list around, or if you just want to test this new policy, this thread will be deleted as a result. If you want to update your info, then make a new post and list the info in the listing format that I’ve asked for or else it gets deleted.
I have next to no reason to go that I or anyone else has come up with for me, and still I’ve created and kept this list up out of courtesy for you people. Show some goddamn courtesy and respect of your own from now on.
[Edit]I don't like ever having to be an asshole about anything to anyone, and I love to be helpful, but i'm really fed up and outright disrespected on here now, and it's starting to piss me off.[/edit]
Moriveth and ctishman are on the list twice. Just thought I'd point that out. And you can edit my info to this:
spider817 - Doubltree - Flying from Texas
Sean - No Accomodations yet , LFR (Looking For Room), - Live nearby in Kent. - Travelling via Metro Transit.
Note to self: Pack fewer things. Jeebus. '04 was not very forgiving on my knees.Z
EDIT: Now that I look back on it, and compare my '04 experience to Final Fantasy XI Online...I think I was the PAX equivalent of a Goblin, with all of the packraty things I was carrying.

Remove me from the list - other vacation plans have come up and I won't be able to attend PAX as a result.
Anyway, Me and my buddy are driving up from North Carolina. A road trip if ever I saw one. We're staying in Doubletree where my fiance and his girlfriend are flying up to meet us. We're very excited.
Sooo, in the proper format:
Chuk (Chris) - Doubletree - Driving from NC - With best friend and our ladies.
63.) Glasken (aka. Dave) - Got a room at Double Tree - Driving my car from Vancouver - I am going with four friends, and I am probably just gonna play in the free rooms, no tournaments for me.
