For all of the bad news we've been hit with regarding PAX East, the antsy factor is ramping WAY up today. Still gonna be a PAX. Still gonna have a great time.
I just want to know how much their bag check is going to ruin my mornings. That's the one unknown that's pissing me off.
Morning shift Tabletop as well. Pleased to meet you, Mr Pence. I say we both wear Glass that morning and freak people out that there are 2 of us.
Also, I won the Enforcer betting pool on when the schedule would be posted? Yay. I'm not one to turn down free stuff.
Only downside to schedule is that my good friend and main PAXing buddy Jon (CorvusRex) did not get his first pick of TT but is instead working Main Theater. He is mega tall though and equipped with a booming voice, so he will serve well there, and get to half-watch some rather cool events like storytime and make-a-strip.

Everyone would probably have trouble remembering the names of the two guys with short, dark hair and Glass who are working that shift. Nice to meet you, as well.
Don't see Rym on that schedule, but I assume that means he's transcended schedules and is working all three shifts in all departments. We'll need to get games in Thursday afternoon before the con. Not sure if afternoon tabletop or evening hotel gaming will be my thing this year; depends on the bag check situation, and whether I want to get out and about after working TT all morning.
I dunno, but installing Group Me now so consider me down for whatever. In theory I should be a lot more free up this year to hang around and play games, but we all know how that always goes. I have a much smaller group of friends & family in tow this year (just 3 people), and I'm not actively writing at the moment, so no interviews to go do or people to schmooze.
I'm pretty anti-committal with my PAX hours though. After so many years of going to the same place, it's kinda staggering to think of how many people you know at these events that you only get to see once or twice a year. Like always I'm just gonna ride the wave and see who I bump into.
yeah he probably wasn't supposed to share that (the only place I'd seen it previously was the Enforcer boards) but personally I do think it is RIDICULOUS that they can't finish a map of the Tabletop area in time to put it in the Guidebook and the program. This absolutely SHOULD be out to the public, and people should be able to see what vendors are coming to the TT area.
Any Thursday evening plans? I'm wondering if it's worth heading over.
What Scott said, but I'm undecided on dinner. Open to options on a nice dinner though, FRC knew where the good places in Seattle were. Possible tabletopping.

Also, I need a weekend to not have any plans and veg the fuck out and get my knit on.
I will be running games off and on at Games on Demand, which is conveniently near TTT but not part of it.
Wow. I forgot most of everything around there. Well there is that really good greek place on the other end of the city next to the Hynes.
