Feel free to work out room arrangements here and let us know where you'll be staying.

I've booked the Sheraton.

[Jackel]

Dualshotty23, and I are looking for two other fine gentlemen to share a room with from Thurs - Monday. Let me know if you're interested.

[Datul]

Sweet, also booked the Sheraton for myself and my bro Shadowmage952.

Flight also booked, now just waiting on badges.

[xoanon]

I'll be at the Sheraton. Thanks for the heads-up.

[Dave]

Anyone shackin' up with you yet, Scott? If not, and you're down, I'm callin' dibs.

[Rogue_hunter]

EDIT: It would have helped if I checked my email.

[Bone]

Rogue, I had emailed you and if you weren't going to respond I was going to hit up Scott. You still down? I can book today. Got my plane and PAX tickets!

[Bone]

Rogue and I have our spot now... Dave, you're clear for Scott's room
Plane tickets, hotel, and PAX tickets, bought. Woooooooo!

Bow chicka wow wow!

Has everyone coordinated days that they're flying out yet and/or meeting up? We looking at a Thursday meetup one day prior to PAX, like '08?

I've got a friend in the area and I was going to fly out a few days ahead of everything, but I didn't want to overstay my welcome over there.

Anyone have any suggestions as to what to check out in town?

[Bone]

I'll be in Thursday afternoon, I think Rogue is showing up Wednesday. I wanted to try the Beluga app (cross platform group chat) to coordinate with everyone.

[KillerMcDead]

So my friends and I are booked now at the Paramount. I can't believe how quickly the Sheraton filled up. We're just about as close though, so I guess it's alright. It was just neat running into so many people in the Sheraton lobby last year, I'm kinda bummed out.

[Mot Wakorb]

UWCrash and I are booked for the Sheraton. Sweet Jebus, PAX cometh again!

Already installed in anticipation of this.

Psyko - you still interested if I go to the dastardly burger joint this year?

(or really, any of the other places I'm planning to hit along the way)

[diablopath]

Any other college-aged kids want to share a room? I'd like to go this year, and I'll finally have the time, but...

[iHap]

Jackel, Dualshotty23, and I are sharing a room at the Red Lion. We are still looking for a 4th Gentlemen for the room. We have the room Thurs-Mon. I will be checking in around 10-11AM~ depending on when I arrive.

@diablopath Maybe?

[diablopath]

How much is it going to run?

Also...what are transportation options in the city? I'd have to fly into SeaTac. How much do taxis run in the city?

...also, 4 beds, or do I get to cuddle?

There's the Grey Line Bus that runs from the airport to various major hotels downtown, $20 one way (I've used it both times I've gone to PAX, quick, get to see the city and they drop you off/pick you up at the hotel) Or if you're fortunate a local or driving CoGger can pick you up. Most everything else is walking distance.

I'm asking for $250 from each of you guys. Currently it's 2 queen sized beds but I'm going to be calling to ask if they can provide 2 cots, or if there's couches in the room. It did not provide that information when i reserved the room.

I am going to take the train system that goes from the airport to 4th street, then a small walk to 5th street. It was like a 40~ minutes ride and only $2 so it's nice a cheap but maybe a few minutes longer than a taxi.
