    PAX Prime 2012

    The ninth annual PAX Prime took place between August 31-September 2, 2012 at the Washington State Convention Center in Seattle, Washington.

    Should we arrange some kind of meet up?

    I was thinking it would be cool if those of us that are going to PAX prime this year posted their names along side their user names, it would also be cool to arrange a meet up perhaps at a bar or something?

    If we could get the GB crew out for an after party at a bar one night that would be awesome too!

    So I know I am going, along with two other friends, are any of ya'll?

    I know it is early, but I think the earlier the pans the best, right?

    So the official meetup is here, we could all sign up to go and meet each other there, or we could try and do our own thing.

    So when are people getting in? I'm set to be in by 10.00 but realistically I'll say 12.00 and set up in hotel by 13.00.

    This'll be my first PAX. My badge arrived last week, but I expected a bit more in terms of a schedule of panels and/or literature on the weekend happenings.

    Do they usually send out more info, or will it all be available when you check in? I know the GB panel is happening some time that Friday evening, but beyond that I'm kinda clueless.

    Apologies if this has been answered elsewhere; the PAX forums and FAQ don't seem to be of much help, either.

    You won't be receiving anything else in the mail. Everything is online. I guess you missed it on the PAX site.

    Maps won't be released for probably a couple weeks.

    I suckered my wife into going to pax this year so we are having a vacation in Seattle. She and I will be around town (unless she gets bored and jets off to do something else).
