so yeah wow pax

Home again from PAX, haven’t yet watched the new Doctor Who, still doing laundry. Had a great time (despite terrible sound in the Saturday concerts), met and re-met a bunch of people in the ever-awesome Jamspace and other music spaces (Craig from The Megas, Wayne and Joe from The Protomen, C0splay, Klopfenpop, Brandon from MC Frontalot, all you chiptune crews from Sunday, – “NAMES, darling, NAMES,” as Edina says XD ), enabled and documented this loltrocity:

…got chatted up a tiny bit by a small game company looking for music, saw Paul and Storm live for the first time (love the fighting nun song), bought the tiny metal dice I’ve always wanted:

…got interviewed by the lovely people at Rocksmith (who let me plug the band \n/ ), and, best of all, watched Anna get interviewed by Space Channel 5‘s famed investigative reporter, Ulala, herself:

And that, really, is how you do that.

Citizen Skywatch totally wants to be the next Bioshock. I hope they pull it off, the setup and booth were both epic. I’ll be buying Jetpack Joyride for the iPad, Anna bought a couple of interactive fiction games, and I and grabbed a very silly tabletop game, Monkeys with Knives and Guns, on Sunday. Several crime and/or evil-themed games had exhibition space; they all got CRIME and the Forces of Evil cards, and oh, sure, they’re laughing now. Just wait. Muah ha ha.

Were you at PAX? What was your favourite part?

Those dice are WONDERFUL. There's a physicality to metal dice that makes me crave them, even though I've resisted so far.

Love the interview picture, too!

Sounds like a great time was had by all.

I love them, they are tiny and METAL.

That is a GREAT pic of Anna and the pink-haired space babe.

Anna's pose is perfect And the Ulala costume is wonderful. I chased after her when I saw her go by and was all OH MY GOD. (Space Channel 5 is an old Dreamcast game.)

But what did she do to get investigated? Inquiring minds want to know!

[solarbird]

You have heard of course of The Wettening?

Orbital water-balloon technology?

Well. You will.

Now I have.

Now I move to a cave high in a undisclosed mountain range. :)

I was at PAX on Friday, and I saw some of your tweets, but the cell service was so slow I couldn't reliably post to say "oh hai we are over here."
My highlight was seeing Wil Wheaton sign a giant lavender jelly dick (handed to him by Amy Pond, no less) and then scoring one of his Complete Works DVDs.

Oh. My. Gods. So disturbing. XD

I saw a great Pond on Saturday. I wonder if it was the same person.

[tereshkova2001.livejournal.com]

She was with a great Eleventh Doctor. And not only did she get Wil to sign a truly epic dick, she made him a Cape of Dicks. Yes, those are fleur-de-dicks.

About the same time, Twitter exploded with people (Grant Imahara, Felicia Day, Paul and Storm, Adam Savage) sending Wil ASCII dongs.

THE INTERNET IS FULL OF WTF.

[solarbird]

I saw that Eleven! But I did not see that Amy! I probably just missed her. The one I saw was taller, with less shiny hair.

lol fleur-de-dicks - I presume the fringe consists of many crocheted penis-related decorative elements? It would have to, wouldn't it? INTERNET YOU ARE SO FUCKED UP XD
