Pax East 2012 was a lot of fun, being my first big convention, it was a bit overwhelming seeing so many people no matter where you went. The lines and lines were probably the biggest joykill of the event (even lines for the restrooms!) but that's to be expected with a con that size.

Met with a few developers who were down on the show floor, mainly indi developers showcasing their fresh ideas (Monaco and Dust come to mind) while trying out the games they were so eager to show the world. The few panels I did go to were a blast and all around were some of the few things waiting in line for almost an hour was worth while for.

Met up with the group from 4PP (community wise) to eat out on Saturday, have to say I've never seen a place that serves mainly salads and pizza (all you can eat no less) and have your drinks in glass gauntlets with silverware and cloth, even had the pizzas delivered to our tables. Overall that was a huge success as there was a great turnout of people who showed up, both old and new, with no one in particular acting a fool (at least not like I expected in worst case scenario)

Overall, I'm glad I didn't opt out of going (even if I have to make up the money now ;-; ) but I will say, train rides take way too long ;-; (still on a train as of this journal from last night)
