Oh geez, this is a bit of a cluster. I got 3 Fridays, 1 Sunday, 2 Mondays. I obviously need 2 of each, so I'm gonna have to hunt down 2 Saturdays and 1 Sunday.
If you guys have any spares, I'd gladly take them off your hands.

WTF? Sounds like you were literally the last person to buy any badges at all.
Yeah, no kidding. I'm really contemplating canceling my reservation altogether, but I'd hate to waste booking the Roosevelt and not actually going to the con.
You can probably get away with badgeless gaming in the Sheraton (and possibly Red Lion, and POSSIBLY even tabletop), and only going into the "main" con on the days you have badges.
I must say, of all the PAXes, PAX Prime is at this point in every way objectively superior. East is fun, but not as fun. The early close coupled with bad location and fewer days really make Prime stand out.
If I could only go to one PAX, I'd skip East and fly to Prime every year. I'd choose MAGFest over East, but Prime over Magfest.
We have a room at the Red Lion as well, that we'll cancel once we're 100% confident in the Sheraton room. If anyone needs a room at the Red Lion later on, let us know, and we can let you know when we actually cancel it.
Neither the Sheraton or the Red Lion are available. :-/. Anyone manage to get a room there and wouldn't mind a roommate? I've bunked with Ro and Jeremy in the past!! ^_^
The Renaissance is listed as 4 blocks away. It is where I am staying and I have stayed there in the past. Very posh, quality hotel. A bit of a walk, but not unpleasantly far.
I mean, Seattle isn't that large, any hotel downtown is easily within walking distance. It's just a matter of whether you're fine walking one minute or five minutes. Maybe if you're trucking a shitload of board games being closer might be better.

That is why Ro and I stay at the Sheraton. Right across the street for ease of trucking a shitload of games.
I missed badges today at lunch, and it's all my own fault. I'm alright with it though. I was actually working when it happened, never saw a tweet, and I totally "could" have been checking because I knew it was that time, but I just kinda was into whatever it is I was doing.
I've stayed in the Sheraton and the Renaissance most times I've gone to PAX. The Sheraton is great because it's right next to the convention center, but the Renaissance is super fancy. It's about four blocks away, but that's not a bad walk at all. I'm staying there this year.
If anyone should happen to have an extra 4 day, let me know if you would be willing to sell it. A coworker of mine missed out on badges, but wants to go if he can.
Same here I have derived a free housing solution in Tacoma which will involve driving and parking so I may go that route. If I do, I want to try and hook up the person with a badge.
Also, at the secret breakfast, what's the record waffle count? I have decided that that particular crown is one I need.

Just sayin'.

Dev + Prime is cheaper than an Ebay 4-day currently.

PS, please email me the hotel info when you can.
