[Dtoider Capm Trevo orchestrated an elaborate and adorable proposal this weekend at PAX, and he pulled it off flawlessly! Seriously, just watch the video! --Mr Andy Dixon]
My girlfriend and I went to PAX this year dressed as Vault 43 dwellers from the Fallout series, and I had concocted a very Fallout-esque proposal that involved the Bethesda booth, lockpicking, and an ammo box. Click the video to see how it went down!

@Andy Dixon: I totally am! I don't comment and contribute to the blogs nearly as much as I'd like, but I've been a loyal member of the site since like... 2007 or some craziness like that. I wore the Mr. D Helmet for most of the Razer/RoTT party friday night as well, haha.
And Thank You everyone for the kind words, it was a lot of fun to pull off, some of the stuff I had planned for a while, but a few of the minor deets I had to scramble to get covered. The Cole Mcgrath dude who shouted towards the end actually helped out a lot, he's a good friend of mine.
When I saw it first I thought it was going to be one of those retarded awkward for everyone, ridiculous ON STAGE proposals that its just showing off your prize to virgins which is shameless.
But this is brilliant! Congratulations, you've got one genuinely nerdy girl to go along with the whole lock picking thing, then again she was cosplaying with you so thats even more awesome.
