First time going to PaizoCon. I was very excited.
Originally, I was assigned this (and one other) event in the lottery:
Friday, July 6
08:00 AM – 01:00 PM Game Room NeoExodus A2: Ruins of Trovaska
I went ahead and added some other events until my schedule was pretty full.
I spent the next few days monitoring the events and noticed that one of the events that I had originally wanted to sign up for was available so I unchecked this event:
Friday, July 6
08:00 AM – 01:00 PM Game Room NeoExodus A2: Ruins of Trovaska
and signed up for this event instead:
Friday, July 6
11:00 AM – 12:00 PM Robert Hughes Room Gaming Terrain: Casting Plaster Bricks
I had to drop the first one to avoid the conflict. Then I double-checked my schedule and my events showed correctly.
Then, a couple of days later, the other Gaming Terrain event that I wanted opened up a slot so I signed up for this too:
Friday, July 6
10:00 AM – 11:00 AM Robert Hughes Room Gaming Terrain: Working With Styrofoam
I was stoked. I checked my schedule again and it all looked correct. I now had the two Gaming Terrain events that I wanted, but had to give up my lottery event to do it. Somebody else signed up for the empty slot in the NeoExodus event.
Lo and behold, all of a sudden, the Gaming Terrain events disappeared from my schedule. I emailed (and later called) Paizo support but, other than "we're investigating...", got no answers. Although they promised to try to "make it right". Finally after no emails, I call them back more than a week later and they tell me there was a glitch in their system and there's nothing they can do.
So not only did I lose the events they say mistakenly opened up, but now I lost my lottery event too. Now I'm less excited and more frustrated.
Just curious if this happened to anyone else out there in PaizoLand.
