Another year, another west-coast PAX. This time around it'll be Aug 31st-Sept 3rd.
Who'll be attending this time?
Monday badges still available!
Anybody have any interest in drumming up some kind of Slap'n'Tickle that weekend? (Updating as available)
Seek out Momgamer flying the GWJ flag at the Hyatt hotel for impromptu meet'n'greet throughout the weekend.
I managed to net Friday/Monday tickets this time, wow did they jack up the price. Ether way, I'm excited to be able to attend again.
I'd like to see a Slap'n'Tickle materialize, but probably can't arrange it myself from here (Wyoming). If anyone is interested in heading that up, I'll happily update the title post with the information.

I snagged a press badge and plan to be in the area. It's been a bit since ive seen the seattle crew
So what’s everyone plan for the con? Are we getting together for drinks and dinner as usual?

I'm going for the first time in 6 years, and I'm taking my two boys (13 and 16). We were only able to get Sunday and Monday, and we could not get rooms downtown, but we are hoping to try to do as much as possible before driving back to Portland on a school night.

My assigned section area is going to be in the Hyatt Hotel this year. I'll have the Goodjer Banner, and all y'all should come say Hi!

I hope so. I'll be touching down in Seattle today and I'm hoping to be able to scout out a place for Thursday or Saturday (or preferences?). However, if anyone else has any ideas, post them here and I'll update the title post.

Every Labor Day weekend, I tell myself that I'm going to meet up with the GWJ crew, and then every Labor Day Weekend, I end up being out of town.
Enjoy. Let me know if you're looking for recommendations on venues away from the convention center.
Schedule is somewhat full but could do dinner sunday I think!
My adventures in Seattle led me very little insight into places to go for a gathering so I went ahead and PM'd Trashie for recommendations, and ta-dah!:
Thanks again Trashie!

I personally like the idea of trying The Athenian, or popping over to the international district. Does anyone have any ruthers? And is Sunday ok for everyone?

I also forgot The Alibi Room, a great pizza place in the Market.
Enjoy! Sorry I can't join you all.
Unfortunately I have family dinner on Sunday but have fun! I will be at the Acer party at the Showbox tonight if anyone wants to join me

It is unlikely I would be able to meet for Sunday dinner too, but plans can change!

If anyone gets around to Valve's new game, Artifact, booth, they are handing out beta keys for the game. The game seems really interesting.
