Showing at PAX South this weekend

jasonrohrer · 2015-01-21 05:43:11

There will be a CORDIAL MINUET cash game pit at PAX South in San Antonio this weekend, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday (23-25 of January). Booth number 1760. Custom booth designed and constructed by local artist Alex Diamond---like nothing else in the expo hall guaranteed. Special souvenir payouts available for people who win matches in the booth (my hands are bruised from hand-imprinting 999 of these over the past few days).

PAX three-day passes and Saturday passes are sold out, but there are still some Friday and Sunday passes left. I'm not sure how it works regarding on-site purchase, or if any day passes are held back for at-the-door admission.

Hope that some of you can make it to the show!

Oh, yeah, and I'll be there, running the booth all three days. Please come up and introduce yourselves to me!

Can we take real money from your booth goers?

computermouth · 2015-01-21 06:22:56

Wish I could! Will they be playing on the live server, or a separate one?

Oh, how I would like to attend. I will at least check travel prices for a day trip on Sunday. I better start playing and winning in higher stakes games to pay for the trip! haha

Ok, I just looked at flight prices and a round trip on Sunday would be a little under $800. Unfortunately, not worth the trip for me, sorry!

This gives me a legitimate reason to bump the CM thread I created!

Definitely won't be making it from the other side of the world, but I hope we get to see some pictures of the booth.

Will visitors play offline against each other or online against us sharks?

sjon03 · 2015-01-21 21:58:42

Jason, what are the special souvenir payouts that you made?

Unfortunately (and also partly on purpose, for logistical reasons), people in the booth will only be able to play each other.

Internet on the show floor was going to be something like $1500 for the weekend. I realized that it would be confusing anyway, because if they were on the live server, people at the booth wouldn't be able to reliably play against their friends in the booth. Or there would be no way to ensure that people sitting across from each other (and not next to each other) would be matched up.

SO...

I'm running TWO local-only servers on my laptop, one for each pair of back-to-back terminals. Local play only, and sensible match-ups only (you can only join games against the person across from you at the table).

Makes sense. Don't forget to bring a backup machine!

I wish I could be there in San Antonio today. Good luck at PAX South, Jason! I'm sure I'm not the only one looking forward to any updates that you might give.

Sorry to bump a thread I last posted in, but how did PAX South go, Jason?
