I kinda agree with you TDA on CAX being the better CA show this year.
I will say they are two completely different shows. However, I did enjoy playing our checkered history for a little while, since Saturday was pretty much a wash for anything DMD related. Friday and Sunday though were awesome, foot-traffic wise.
I give the nod to PPE for the seminars/speakers and variety of pins and CAX for the sheer amount of games (plus bands).
Let's take a road trip up to Seattle next year and Chicago as well!
I like the Pinsider easter egg hunt.
Guymontag you're next up!
