pre-pax party clarification!
ChrisFurniss \| 11:19 AM on 08.06.2008	23 comments

Ok, there seems to be some sort of discussion going around about some GIANT ASS party over at my place before pax. I wish to clarify. This pre-pax party will be invite only, and mainly for industry types. I will send the invites this week. This means no random community members. My apartment is small. This will be a SMALL PARTY.

SMALL.

ISH.

Go about your business. (and maybe buy a t-shirt from http://www.splitreason.com/weeklygeek/)

Wait. Who are you? And why am I supposed to care? And why are people that are "in the industry" better that the community that you are currently hating on?

"Since I am your resident Seattle host for PAX, I am planning a dtoid pre-pax party at my place."

"I just wanted to see who is going to be arriving on thursday and who can make it, basically everyone is invited anyway."

Change your mind at having a ton of people crash your place?

Ah. I see..... :(

Kind of don't know why you posted a Cblog about it in the first place.

For everyone who is now not going to Furniss':

After our awesome dinner (THERE IS STILL ROOM IT'S NOT TOO LATE) I think we're going to head out to The Redwood to get our drink on. ADJUST YOUR PLANS ACCORDINGLY!

@Haxan: Months ago Furniss wrote a blog saying basically "Hey Dtoid, party at my place" and didn't leave much details. I doubt he realized how many Dtoiders were planning on coming to PAX and his party, so now he cut it to staff only.

CHIPS! CHIPS! CHIPS! CHIPS! CHIPS! CHIPS! CHIPS!

@King: Pretty much so. I can't blame him for not wanting 400 people at his place, to be honest. It probably can't hold even 1/8 of that if it's a small apartment.

Galagabug, blame Gutter!

Or the pre-frosh....

Chris doesn't have room for that many people in his apartment (which I have been to, so I can vouch).

THIS PARTY IS SO OFF THE CHAIN IT NEEDS A POST TELLING YOU THAT YOU ARENT INVITED.

Some of your reactions are the exact reason why community members aren't invited. When I said "basically everybody is invited" I was referring to my friends who are Dtoid EDITORS. You know, the people on my FRIENDS LIST. People who I know and who aren't 12 years old, getting all butt hurt on the internet about a party they weren't even invited to to begin with.

@maxio98ui

And... you are? Who?

no chris, who are you? a founder of a blog as old, maybe even older than dtoid but so uneventful and boring, its unreal. of course this is relative. but alexa puts you on a rank of 228 thousand. and dtoid is on 9 million. so why are you here? go make your cruddy site better. And then call yourself a "industry type".
