Congratulations, Christine!

Tzzarg, Wed, Feb 20, 2008, 12:30 PM

Way to go Christine! Having read the adventure proposal, I can't wait to see this in print.

Ahwe Yahzhe, Wed, Feb 20, 2008, 12:36 PM

CONGRATS!

(January 2009... So is this adventure going to be 4E OGL, or 3.5E OGL?)

Lori B (Pathfinder Chronicles Superscriber; Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Planet Stories Subscriber), Wed, Feb 20, 2008, 12:49 PM

Way to go!!

I would "pre-order" to show my support, but I am already a GMM subscriber. Looking forward to this one very much.

Alex Martin (Pathfinder Adventure Path, Pathfinder Chronicles, Pathfinder Companion Subscriber), Wed, Feb 20, 2008, 12:52 PM

Congratulations Christine!

Russ Taylor (RPG Superstar Top 6, Contributor), Wed, Feb 20, 2008, 12:53 PM

Great job. I was pulling you even before I was eliminated :)

We'll get back to you on that!

Very cool to see this one posted out here already. Congrats Christine. I'm not a high-level adventure fan, but I'll be ordering this one just out of principle. And the desire to read the fleshed out version of the winning proposal.

And congrats Paizo. The Superstar thing was fun and inspiring to read. Hopefully you've found a new author for more forthcoming projects.

Jozie, Wed, Feb 20, 2008, 01:10 PM

Well Done and Good Luck!

vikingson (Pathfinder Adventure Path Subscriber), Wed, Feb 20, 2008, 02:05 PM

Congratz and pre-ordered ! Only 10 more months to release...

*heads for the time-machine*

Congratulations, Christine!

Congratulations. You really deserve this.

Carolyn Mull, Wed, Feb 20, 2008, 04:56 PM

Chris Dragich, Thu, Feb 21, 2008, 12:52 AM

Congratulations to you! I will most assuredly be pre ordering this one!

Congratulations, Christine!

Ant (Pathfinder Adventure Path, Pathfinder Modules Subscriber), Thu, Feb 21, 2008, 01:58 AM

As a testimony Christine's talent, before I realised this was the winner of the Superstar competition I saw it listed in the Product Discussion forum and thought, "Wow! That title sounds cool! I want to buy it just on impulse!"

I'm not normally an impulse buyer so, coming from me, that's saying something.

Of course, having actually read what the module is about just means that I'll definitely be preordering this baby.

Amazing effort, Christine. You deserve all the praise you get.

DM Jeff (Pathfinder Chronicles Charter Superscriber; Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, GameMastery Maps Subscriber), Thu, Feb 21, 2008, 06:57 AM

CONGRATULATIONS!!! Can't wait to read it!

Waitaminnit here. This idea is nothing more than Moria, from Lord of the Rings, with the names changed to protect the innocent ... and multiple monsters instead of just one Balrog.

Does this mean none of the other finalists had an acceptable & more original idea?

Just curious ...

Did you read the actual contest submition?

Joshua J. Frost (Events Manager), Thu, Feb 21, 2008, 10:20 AM

Yeah, the sales text above is the short-short-short version of the submission. If you go here you can read the entire submission which is nothing like what you said at all.

TempleLion (GameMastery Superscriber; Pathfinder Adventure Path, Pathfinder Chronicles, Pathfinder Companion Subscriber), Thu, Feb 21, 2008, 11:30 AM

Congratulations Christine!

Mitch Brock of Boston, Sat, Feb 23, 2008, 03:44 AM

Congrats, Christine! I am so excited about this adventure! I voted for this mission so now I'm "putting my money where my mouth is" and pre-ordering! I can't wait to drop this into my campaign and see the reaction of my players!

No, of course not ... but the lengthy synopsis above makes it sound very similar to Moria of Middle-Earth. Can someone who *has* read the submission please explain what makes "Clash of the Kingslayers" different from Moria? Besides the multitude of monsters?

Herzlichen Glückwunsch, Christine!

I am looking forward to this and other publications of yours.

Cheers,

Well I'll be turned into a toad ...

I'm sorry - it was never made clear that submissions were *publicly* available. I thought only Paizo employees running the contest were able to do that, for copyright reasons.

I worked Internet copyright abuse issues for a long time ...

So, by extension now, are all submissions, in all rounds of the contest, also available? Both winners and losers?

Thanks for the correction!

And special to Christine:

Congratulations from this curmudgeon on a winning (and highly original!) concept.

;) :-p

Zootcat (Pathfinder Chronicles Charter Superscriber; Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Planet Stories Subscriber), Sat, Mar 1, 2008, 11:13 PM

LOL. You must have missed the entire contest. Scroll to the top of this page and click on the RPG Superstar logo. You should find all of the entries from all of the rounds (except for the round 1 losers). There is lot of good stuff there. Happy reading!

Plotty Fingers, Tue, Mar 18, 2008, 05:56 AM

Gratz Christine!

look forward to it.

Leandra Christine Schneider (RPG Superstar, Contributor), Thu, May 1, 2008, 08:57 PM

Hi everyone (and of course many thanks again :P ),

I'm now definitely certain that the adventure will use the 3.5 rules. So save a few 10th level characters until January and break out all the nasty PrCs combos you can find, I'm trying to make sure that they'll be needed.

Zootcat (Pathfinder Chronicles Charter Superscriber; Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, Planet Stories Subscriber), Thu, May 1, 2008, 11:54 PM

Sweet! I can't wait, Christine. I'm really looking forward to the finished product. Your proposal rocked!

Trent

Edit: And so did all you other entries.

Zuxius (Paizo Superscriber), Sun, May 18, 2008, 03:55 AM

Just make sure that any groups which stray too far from the '4 person party, 1 Fighter, 1 Cleric, 1 Rogue, 1 Wizard' golden ideal get mashed into tiny little pieces and fed to the lake monsters...... :D

Who is Christine and why everybody congratulates her? care to explain?

Late last year, and into early this year, Paizo ran the RPG Superstar contest. Of 800-or-so entrants, Christine won.

Zuxius (Paizo Superscriber), Thu, Jul 24, 2008, 12:55 AM

What does the "S" stand for in "S1". "E" for event, "W" for wilderness, "J" for journey, etc.

Zaister (Paizo Charter Superscriber), Thu, Jul 24, 2008, 01:12 AM

S stands for "Superstar".

Seriously.

Zeugma (Pathfinder Adventure Path Subscriber), Tue, Sep 2, 2008, 07:40 PM

Does anyone know where in Golarion this module will be set?

Assuming it remains dwarf-centric and James didn't veto that, my best guess is the Five Kings Mountains, but that's just a guess and I've been known to be wrong from time to time.

Probably several more weeks. We're still a few days a way from posting the finished cover for the previous Module.
