I was wondering if the extra day we are losing from the badge will be refunded along with the banquet ticket?

I checked my account and my 2020 ticket is still showing as 2020. Also, will there be a refund of the extra day for the rollover tickets along with the banquet tickets?

I remember the whole Dungeon/Dragon fracas that happened. Well not much of a fracas really, more of a "Huh". One group I played with continued to use 3.5 product and we were happy. Shortly after the Beta rules came out was when I joined the Sunday group I've been playing with. I looked at these rules for Pathfinder and I was floored. It still felt like 3.5 but something so totally different and amazing that I was hooked.
Paizo is an amazing company and I am happy to continue supporting it :D

I'd be interested in both if they are still available. Just PM me if its still available

I know me and several others will be coming in from Spokane Thursday so either one sounds good. Hope we can settle on one soon :)

I called and they are out of the doubles for the Paizo room block.

Hey Daemonslye, are you thinking of running another Paladine in Hell game for 2012 now that they announced the new location and date for the con?
Still loved last year btw :D

THIS. IS. AWESOME.

Love the July dates.

LOVE LOVE LOVE the new location. Redmond Town Center is the absolute BEST location to do this. Great restaurants. A game store.

We are even close to the Malt and Vine for Friday night!! W00t!

As the location has moved, we will need to reevaluate the Thursday night Meet and Eat event, as well!

Well done, Paizo....WELL DONE.

I saw the new location as well, it looks fantastic:D

I had a payment method failure earlier last week and have been working to get funds back into my account so it can go through. Unfortunatly I don't have the email anymore that was auto-generated and sent to me.
Once I got the funds in my account how can I make sure my order is resubmitted?

Its kindof a gauzy material that Im not sure what its made of. I actually bought that as a piece from Museum Replicas a long time ago. Of course that also means that they no longer sell it, but I'll do some research and see what I can find :)

Any ideas on what you might do for next year?
I was thinking one of the gods for me. Perhaps Norgorber.

It was great for us to good sir. Speaking for Ms. Butterflychaser, BigD and myself we really enjoyed gaming and getting to know everyone there. And in all honesty i wouldn't mind playing this again at Paizocon 2012 :D

Balance is now part of Acrobatics.

This is the most sensible statment I've seen sofar;)

Just wanted to let you know, this was a fun time and I really enjoyed myself. It was also pretty fun to try out the Magus and "kick the tires" on some of his abilities.
All and All Thanks for a great time :)

We had a great time. I'm sure more and more pics will flow in as time goes away from PaizoCon, but I managed to get a few!

If you have any to add to this, please email them to me!

Go to Costume pics!.

I have a few of mine on my facebook page. Or I can send them to you one way or another.

Thanks everyone who participated this year :D, it was great to see your costumes DJ and Jodi. There was a guy on friday dressed as some kindof knight but I forgot to get any pictures.
I cannot wait to see who brings what next year.

Thats understandable with regards to the LED's, that was one of the plans for the mace idea I had. I was also abit lazy and nixed my original idea of Echo of Lost Divinity ( One of Pharasma's Divine servants ) for this year. Maybe next year I'll go for it.
Which would be especially fantastic if someone came as the Lady of Graves.

TriOmegaZero is baned for assuming people would know who the hell he is

zylphryx is banned for taking too many of the pillz for pill poppin fun....HI

Kruelaid is banned for banning zylphryx my dark master who was behind the idea of subliminal advertising

Spanky the Leprechaun is banned because of his referance to a Hostess snack cake...
Which you can buy at your local grocier:)

I certainly don't wish to be alone in this, and I more than likely won't be, but I want to see who else will be bringing their dress up game to the con.

Im excited to see who brings what, or as who, this year :)

In honor of my first Paizocon I plan on dressing as the Lovely Rhoswen From Neil Spicers Realm of the Fellnight Queen. I will be the red head in the crown and green dress with the big lightup staff .... If I can get it done in time .... now back to the sewing for me.

Awesome idea :). I was going to bring a nerf mace that I dolled up to look like it was on fire, but unfortunatly the rules nixed that. Can't wait to see your costume.

Last year I saw quite a few people that took an effort to dress up for the con, the appearance of Nethys last year being pretty notable ( kudos to you Karui_Kage, and to Jodi Lane for making it ), and the Alchemist ( sorry for not getting your name, it was awesome looking ).

Personally I really enjoy costuming and love dressing up for conventions. Unfortunatly I didn't dress up last year on account of...I did not plan.

This year though I plan on coming as a Cleric of Asmodeus. Look for the man dressed in the crimson and black nobleman's outfit.

Im interested in Harsk, Seltyiel and Kyra, Sel being my first choice and Harsk my second, Kyra third

Confirm me for both evenings good sir, I am on it. :-)

zylphryx is banned for getting off topic about chicken and brains...or was it chicken brains

You still got me on the slot for friday evening good sir?

zylphryx is banned for pulling a Doctor Phil when in reality he just wants to eat their brain

If you focus on combat you can make a pretty good heavy hitting monk for melee attacks, especially with the right gear and feat selection.

Monks Robe: AC bonus and unarmed damaged treated as five levels higher

Supream Unarmed Strike Feat ( from the Book of Nine Swords ): Monks picking this feat treat their unarmed damage as if it was 4 levels higher

After BAB requirments for SUS and adding in for the Monk's Robe, you now have a monk that at 4th level can hit as hard as a greatsword ( adjusted Unarmed Damage by 9 levels from level 4 = unarmed damage of a 13th level monk, 2d6 )

Versatile Unarmed Strike Feat ( from PHB II ): as a swift action you can switch your damage from blugeoning, piercing or slashing ( Tiger Claw, Stone Fist and Knife Hand for flavor text )

Dex based of course will want Weapon Finess when they qualify, for the to hit boost, and an Amulet of Mighty Fists is pretty much a forgon conclusion ( though expensive compared to other items ) for either weapon abilities or the to hit and damage bonus.

Alot of people also forget about the Monks Purity of Body (True Story: Grappled a Mummy Lord in The Crimson Throne, "I'm gonna wash that Mummy Rot right out of my hair.." ). And for those less than savory Monks ( I've read of this but never seen it in play ) Diamond Body + Contact Poison + Unarmed Attack/Grapple/Trip = A very glistening fast moving poisoned weapon arcane caster seeking person ( this would be dependent on how long the poison would stay on the Monk )

I've always seen them as primarily the one that takes out Arcane caster's once they get a bead on em.

OK, looks like I have just a Banquet ticket available.

If anyone wants it, I guess make me an offer and it's yours!

ticket still available because I'll take it.

Grummash is banned because Grummush says you never come by and visit the familiy anymore, his single eye weeps because of it.

I had no problem swimming the pool last year it was fun :)

I got Kings of Absalom in the lottery (only lottery event), however...

Return to Chinatown was actually at only 3 out of 4 after the lottery and I snagged the spot. It looks like someone else *also* snagged the spot, as it's now showing 5 out of 4. If it can't be determined which of us picked it first, I'm willing to take the hit and be bumped. Otherwise, color me excited.

Also very happy with the PFS games I'm running (Mantis on Sat morning, Shades pt. 2 on Sun morning) and seminars I picked up.

True so very true, and at least I can laugh though this makes it two years in a row I was dogged :P

I got Who Shot JR? The Gravebinder's Daughter and The Gifted.
The one I was really really hoping to get was the Return to Chinatown, mainly because I'm a huge fan of Big Trouble in Little China :)
Sadface

Big D please don't. I'm down to my last few sanity points and seeing that would push me over the edge :P

Sounds good to me, so damn excited:)

I didn't get the Return to Chinatown which was the one I really, Really wanted to get into. On account I frigging Love Big Trouble in Little China.

Big D would be one of the people I was with that watched last year. If its possible we were also thinking maybe Thursday night after the eat and greet would be pretty sweet, if spots are available that is.

Myself and two other friends will be attending as well, so that will be three.

Yea Im hoping a double becomes available. Priceline confirmed me as reserving a double, but when I called the hotel ( because I am paranoid ) it was switched to a King when as they said " No doubles available for the dates selected".
Im hoping I can still get a double, which you know hey I booked for it, because its going to be 3 people ( including myself ).
Kindof unfair that one place says its available and another says its not >.<

zylphryx is banned for having a name that The Great Old Ones drew out of a hat when they were playing scrabble.

So me and some friends are doing some hotel booking and unfortunatly when I called the hotel ( it was late when I called, my bad ) they had no info on the paizo room block or if there was any rooms left available.
Is anyone else having booking issues for the Paizo block, or having booking issues in general?

I just don't want me and my friends have paizo tickets and no rooms left ( going to try and book this weekend at the latest )

I think I will have an extra ticket.

I wouldn't mind if you do have one available

I would love to play if ou have a friday evening slot open, or even early friday. me and my friends are trying to make it out Late thursday evening ( work and all that ). So a time slot for friday would be great.
Heck even a time slot for Saturday. I was there last year watching Shadowborn ( Jeff ) play and it looked fun.
Still same restrictions for character generation?

We've adopted a couple of Litko products under the GameMastery brand, and snuck them out at PaizoCon. We just added them to paizo.com on Friday.

Yuppers those would be the ones:) Mystery solved:P

Are you sure they were Gamemastery?

I saw a few different brands of flight stands or accessories but no Gamemastery ones.

They were indeed Game Mastery. I also bought the condition tokens too and both had the same lable.

Shadowborn would attest to this one, as being the second casualty for his Second Darkness campaign. Seriously 4 rounds of hold person and my dice never rolled above a 5 for my save. And to top it off I failed the DC 19 Fort save for the coup de grace ( the drow in question did 9 pts and my Fort save was a +8 with everything added together ).
But as they say things happened. If they raise Morvaius, I'll be happy. If they don't, the game goes on :)
Its all about having fun. Even if Murphey pitches a tent on your shoulder

I had an idea rolling around in my head that conception-wise, would work as a really cool concept.

Now for Paladins they have the bonded mount which they can choose at 5th level. Typically a Horse for Medium characters and Pony for Small, with different choices depending on character race, etc.

What if instead of the straight out one mount, split it up into several smaller ones. Something along the lines of a Hound Master, or whichever flavor you wish to call it. A kindof wild hunt feel in a sence. I think it could also work with the cohort from the leadership feat with modifications.
Paladin of Erastle anyone?
I'll have to pick the brain of my DM's on sunday to see what they think. Any thoughts?

flavor doesn't seem paladin ish, might be ok for a ranger or druid type rather. Maybe use it as an inspiration for a custom class..

paladin I don't think so.

Paladine of Erastil though is another matter

Honestly I think everything can be rather subjective, depending on your point of view. Yes 1st and 2nd edition was really good, and I have many fond memories of such. I also like 3.0/3.5 for the different options it gave you.
Now such things such as a sword and board fighter gave you more options other than you have a sword and shield. True you could do something with house rules, but if you played at another DM's table your not guarantted to get the same for your custom sword and board guy/gal.
With 3.0/3.5, and moreso with Pathfinder now, you have those options available to you. And yes if you like playing sword and board you didn't have to worry because most of the same rules are being used now. Maybe a little muss and fuss here and there but otherwise fairley smooth transition.
Either way when it all comes down to it is your enjoyment, and that of the players, in the game itself.
