  • Oh mans, Primordial Soup. Haven't played that in ages. Now I want to also play Ark. I've owned it for ages, but have yet to play my own copy.
  • TvH clan can supply Eclipse with expansion.
  • I've only played my copy twice - really enjoyed the different upgrade paths and the power-grid-like turn order mechanism. I end up bringing it to most game nights just in case someone wants to play.

    UPDATE (because I'm too late to edit): We don't have the plastic things that hold the cubes. Be warned.

    I (and most likely WuB) are in for a game if you guys bring the fiddly bits!
  • I am always down for Eclipse.
  • Due to a series of unfortunate events. I am now going to PAX East!!!

    Anyone looking to ride share from the Albany NY area?
  • I will have to look at my collection to see if there are any hidden gems you folk should be playing, yet are also otherwise unavailable at PAX.
  • Oh Wyatt, your badge arrived yesterday at my house too :-p
  • Who else can only make Saturday? I'm trying to determine the logistics for my crew
  • For those who are interested here is the game list/ I will take as much as I can fit in the trunk so if there is anything you want me to get let me know in advance.
  • I'm planning to be at PAX all the days, Enforcing. Not sure where I'll be working yet.
  • alright, here's a question: has anyone else gotten thre wrong number of badges? I got two, and they both look legit, but I only ordered 1. ¿Ques que qua?
  • That's happened to my friend before, I just say reap the benefits.
  • Rym/Scott: you mentioned in the Wednesday episode getting stuck with a crappy hotel for PAX. Were you not able to get into one of the big 3 this year? Or just not the one you wanted?
  • The big three were all sold out before the con opened. The Seaport wasn't sold out for the con, but it was sold out Monday, which we needed.
  • Damn that sucks. I really wasn't planning to open it up to anyone, but if you want to relive your room-stuffing days, I got a Westin room thurs-tues w/ only 2 people in it (4 on Fri and Sat only).

    Also might be worth checking the [E] boards. There's a guy on there giving away a Seaport reservation in the room share thread, although he seems like the village idiot of that forum and I personally would not want to deal with him.
  • Any chance anyone has two floor spots near the con? Will and I did not luck out on hotels. I snore, but I'll be bringing earplugs.
  • Anyone thought about panels they want to attend?

    Friday

    Despite the lack of Q&A immediately following, I think I'll hit Storytime with Alex. I'm a fan of Harmonix's Frequency, and I'm curious what he has to say after the implosion of plastic musical instruments games. What's Happening in Tabletop RPGs also looks interesting.

    Saturday

    Make a Strip would be a given except it abuts Modernizing Fantasy RPGs. I haven't decided which I want to see more. Then I could potentially catch the tail end of Maestros of Video Games.

    Sunday

    Omegathon Finale is a given. The Mythology In and Of Games also looks interesting.
  • Interesting twitter exchange with @Official_PAX regarding the earlier closing time:
    @ewilliams9: @Official_PAX when the concerts happened lots of people had trouble getting to their hotels after is there any advice on how to avoid that?
    @Official_PAX: @ewilliams9 we are closing at midnight to try and avoid that same issue this year, so hopefully that will fix that!
  • I have a request. For those who will be attending, if League of Legends codes are being given away can you hook me up with some?

    If anyone gives me some, I'll give them to you. No promises, though (since I really don't care enough to seek them out or wait more than 15 seconds).
  • I've got two 3-days I still need to get rid of at-cost ($75). One used to be mine before I decided to enforce. The other is overflow after I got my friends hooked up with badges.
  • Three of them? I might take them off of your hands, let me check on some things.
  • Only two! Three is right out. (Also: not an April fool. Realized what day I posted this.)
  • Two is all I would want. Just checking finances and lodging options.
  • If Steve doesn't grab them or you're otherwise selling I'm interested in 2 badges as well.
  • Can't make it work, have to pass on badges.
  • I need to remember to make use of the streaming this year.
  • Dammit.

    For those wondering, yes, the bag checks are for safety and security. The building is requiring it, as they have the right to do so.
