I had a great time, despite not really doing much other than Enforcing this year - being an XA is spectacularly demanding work, and I was barely standing at the end of the con. But, I had a great time, and really just wish that I had been available more to hang out with you guys.
It was great meeting the TvH clan, you guys are all awesome. Also, dem cookies. That eclipse game was surprisingly well-paced, and turned out the way WW1 did (I'm still paying reparations). Enforcing was a blast, as always. WuB: You're my bro, bro.
Now it's time to eat some real food, get some sleep, and then get on a plane to GDC.
Hot damn was it awesome to actually meet all y'all. Especially those of you in the geekroom - you guys were seriously the best fucking roommates. Can we just, like, take over a hotel room somewhere for shits and giggles? Doesn't have to be a con or anything.
As a side note, someone really needs to actually figure out when Luftrausers is being released, because that game is the shit.
Apparently the PC version is basically done, but they're holding off on releasing it until it's ready for the other platforms they're targeting (PS3 & PS Vita).
No one on the forums has ever really bothered me when I met them in real life. Haven't met enough of you yet, though. Hopefully Trogdor and Pangloss go to PAX East again next year and I can bum a ride off of them.
I saw someone at PAX with a GeekNights T-shirt and a blue beret, but I didn't get a chance to say hi - so I don't think I met anyone from the forums last weekend unless they were undercover.
This was a very successful PAX for me. I entered the 7 Wonders tournament and took 2nd place in the finals (only 2 points from winning!), and I consider those some of the best 7 Wonders games I've ever played.
I also won a dollar from Rym and a box of pony comics from Scott thanks to obscure knowledge.
All of you forumites who have not met me, don't be afraid to come up to me and say hi! I will greet you and talk to you. And, if you are generally a chill person, you can hang out with me any time.
If the guy what black and the guy holding the camera was a white dood, then they totally approached Lyddi and recorded an interview on camera.
He basically comes up to Lyddi and says, "If I guess your age will you give me a kiss?" Then continues to ask the stupidest of questions to where Lyddi handles it awesomely and continues to decline.
That being said, I really like how PAX kicks out anyone who is a piece of shit. I just foresee some problems when somebody cries wolf and perhaps someone is kicked out undeservedly.

I think it is safe to assume that PAX would look into situations and investigate before banning. Sounds like these occurrences were well witnessed.

I'm sure they are. I'm just worried in the future about something that is not well witnessed and doesn't have much, or any, evidence. It could be bad in both directions.
What if some shithead who deserves to be kicked out gets away with it?

Will PAX be innocent until proven guilty or guilty until proven innocent?

I hate to see it happen, but I'm glad for Khoo/Penny Arcade taking care of it
