So, if I want to run a PFS game during one of the midday slots I should submit it using this method?

Community & Digital Content Director

Yes, please do! :)

Hmm... I don't suppose there's any chance we'll hear word on PFS volunteer status before the deadline? How many slots of PFS I'm running would influence whether or not I consider submitting an event.

Submitted.

I noticed that one must put down a time one could run the event for every day except Monday, although there is the option of only running it once.

I know this allows you flexibility in scheduling, but it might be nice to let someone submitting an event to exclude other day(s), if they know they have plans for them.

That was unintentional. I've removed the requirement for those 3 questions (Friday-Sunday). If someone who submitted an event needs to opt out of their response for those days, please email me at paizocon@paizo.com and I will go into the survey data and update it.

PS, nudged the survey to be open until Friday March 31. I'm already working with the data that has been submitted so that may cut down on what timeframes are available for your event if you are still submitting them.


I may well not be able to attend Paizocon this year, and regardless, it looks like I definitely won't be able to set up any proper games (I won't be able to buy my ticket until May at the earliest). So that's sad. Here's hoping I'll be able to run some pickup stuff!


Rats! Just saw this now, and the survey now seems to be closed.

I was going to try to submit a couple of "Powered by the Apocalypse" demo games... Specifically, a Dungeon World game, set in Golarion (a DW conversion of Murder's Mark), and a Spirit of '77 game "Cruise to the Unknown" (think "The Love Boat goes to the Bermuda Triangle"). And possibly also a game of Night Witches.

Hopefully, I'll be able to run them as pick-up games at the con!

Ooh! Here's one vote for Night Witches!

I did their kickstarter, so I have the game, but I haven't had a chance to actually play it yet!

I've submitted my new Call of Cthulhu scenario to the lottery, and will likely be running another Metamorphosis Alpha game as a pick-up, probably on Thursday.

I'd love to try dungeon world one day. I flicked through it a few years back, but reading an RPG doesn't give you the same feel as actually playing a game.

Hey folks, I kicked event submission open for a bit longer, until Wednesday April 5th. I know its not ideal and a short window. We've got an absolute cut off for that day to get events into the program booklet.

Is there any hope of knowing our PFS GM status before that deadline?

Tonya is waiting on some internal information. Unfortunately, we do not know if that will drop by Wednesday or not.


Fantastic! I submitted the two games I want to run (Dungeon World and Night Witches.) I'll be honest: So far, I've only run Night Witches once, but it was amazing!

Unfortunately, I decided that I just don't have the cycles to get my Spirit of '77 game ready for the con.

There, there. Marc didn't really mean it. That was just a horrible joke.

There are not enough exclamation points to express Linda's delight when she learned of this event. :D

The villain had best be a blight druid named Agent Orange.

In the event of a TPK, will salad be served?

How's it looking? Lottery Selection still in the cards this week sometime? :)

We will see. Katina and I will be slamming on data entry, depends a bit about how fast we can work.

Liberty's Edge

Is it much farther Papa Smurf?


Heheh. Take your time! *Nervous laugh*

*Still hasn't been able to buy a ticket*

Far enough that you'll need some class features like

Evasion
Warshaper's morphic
Sneak Attack
& Favored Terrain

Almost finished with Friday. Seminars on Saturday are done then Sunday and Monday events. I've got both Katina and Cosmo doing data entry as fast as possible.

Beware the One True Trickster God, Rob; you might end up with "questionable" lotto picks.
