Hey folks- this is an old post.

With PAX 2018 (this was from 2017!) wrapped up, I'll be making a new post for next year's PAX Aus AS SOON AS THE DATES ARE ANNOUNCED.

We had a much larger turnout this year, and next year, we hope to be more organized with an even bigger turnout again.

So what can you expect to see from more organization?

-Shared accommodation. I'll be working with Uriel Valentine (and an AQ representative, if they like) in order to bulk-book accommodation as close to the exhibition centre as possible. Securing a room will require pre-payment. We will be aiming to secure accommodation in a hotel within 3 to 5 minutes walk of the exhibition centre.

-Flight booking. If you don't want to worry about booking your own flights, I (or we!) will take it up ourselves to get people organized onto flights - with a preference towards flying groups of friends together for travel buddies & security! Flights will require pre-payment.

-PAX Ticket Purchasing! If you want us to get your ticket and hand deliver it to you, this will also be an option. PAX Ticket purchases will require a 50% down-payment for a 3-day badge and a 25% down payment for any single-day badge purchases.

Please be aware that any and all pre-payments will only be refundable if a refund can be secured from the vendor (Hotel/Airline/Penny Arcade). So keep this in mind:

-Hotel bookings can be cancelled generally up to 2 weeks before check-in for a full refund.

-Flights can be cancelled generally up to 1 week before check-in for a full refund, but may require a higher ticket tier ("Economy Saver" type tickets are generally non-refundable and non-transferable)

-PAX passes can only be refunded if you purchase badge insurance.

There'll probably be a few travelling from interstate for it but, even within the state of Victoria, it's probably more the Melbourne-based folk than anyone else who will be able to get there more easily, but hopefully there'll be a small group there at least.

If only PAX was held in Australia's largest city... ahem ;)

FWIW, I was KS Backer #21 and wanted nothing but the best for this game.

every year PAX falls at the most inconvenient time. Good Luck with your gathering though. (why can't it be in Sydney, everyone loves Sydney).

(why can't it be in Sydney, everyone loves Sydney).

Because it's - well - Sydney. Obviously the organisers prefer a city with real character, and a life.

Hoping to be there, just not 100% certain atm.

I wont be able to travel to Aussie PAX but good luck to the ones that are.

Just a lonely peasant on the road looking towards a distance future with the sweat on my back and a tear of cloth in my hand a family crest it must be. A adventure will i have, I dream of dreams my destiny awakens me.
