Unfortunately, I did not attend. I love Seattle and wish I was there. This event you hosted sounds awesome. I suggest games like bobbing for apples with prizes on the apples or shiver shots on developers.
Sadly, I never even heard about this meet-n-Greet until now. Maybe a flashing banner on the front page for a week prior? Overall it sounds epic and I wish I was there. Shoot, I've never even been to a gaming/comic Con before so that would be cool in itself. |

Yes, I attended. I had been keeping my eyes on the news/staff blog, for information; but Mike got to me first.
I think the only thing I'd like to see is maybe a little group introduction or *something* to break how clique-y it got. I rolled in around 8:10 and there had already been a table filled, that I don't think talked with anyone else the entire evening, and never really opened up for an opportunity to say hi :( Having the devs there is a plus and a minus, it's awesome to meet people who's work you support, and having a beer with Colin Johanson and just chatting is about as cool as it gets; but there were moments when they kinda sequestered themselves off and were just talking shop; which I get and is inevitable on some levels at an event like this, especially on the heels of a major release. All in all, I would definitely go again, this was easily the best party I went to for PAX (tied with the PAX Ladies meet up). |
