We had a few hours of downtime on Saturday and a few more this morning.

Everything is back up and we're investigating the cause.

Welcome to the new Maure Castle forum.

Maure Castle was featured in Dungeon #112 and Dungeon #124.

Did you know that the Maure Castle adventure won a Gold ENnie for Best Adventure?


The site seems to have been unavailable for the last 6 hours or so.

Anyway, I dragged myself to work and it's all better now.

In honor of Order of the Stick now appearing in Dragon magazine, we have added the main characters to the available avatar images.

Enjoy!

...is available now.

See above.


Check out the latest sneak peek (240KB PDF) of Paizo's upcoming Dragon Compendium, Vol. 1.

This time, we take a look at some of the monsters making their way into the book!


I've added some additional text to the job posting that explains how to apply.


We had a couple hours of downtime this evening.

All better now.

I should point out that, obviously, we have our list of subscribers that were in zip codes devastated by the hurricanes, but we'd like to give the community an opportunity to help us create the best list of care package recipients possible.


Available for preorder at:

Let us know what you think!

Bam!


We made a few more avatar images available. They are D&D minis from Angelfire.

Enjoy!


Product added.


Welcome!


As a note, there were 28 Dungeon subscribers in the affected area.


We are reindexing everything on the site this afternoon. Could take a few hours before the Search tool is fully functional again.


Thanks to some customer feedback, this morning we discovered a problem with the shipping weight for Angelfire minis singles.

That problem has now been corrected, so if the shipping & handling scared you off over the weekend, please feel free to have another look. : )

The downloadable preview is at http://paizo.com/download/shackledCity/preview-statblocks.pdf


Sweeeeeeet. (If I may say so myself.)

And, hey, let me know if you have a favorite D&D mini that you'd like me to add as an avatar image.


The Shackled City hardcover is better than ice cream.

Discuss.


I've seen a lot of people ask for this...

There will be a poster map of Khorvaire in the Eberron Deluxe DM Screen from Wizards of the Coast.

In the interest of keeping everyone informed...

We've had some outages recently, including last night and this morning, related to a failing DNS server.

This problem (among others) should go away as we upgrade our servers over the next couple of weeks.

By popular demand, we have opened up these new forums for your enjoyment.

Have at it!


BTW, here's something we didn't expect.

Our most popular new products right now are...
Nope, not core D&D books.
Nope, not the latest TCGs.
Plush toys.

Yes, really.

Who knew?


Our servers went down again early this morning (Sunday, 28 Nov).

There are some recognizeable patterns (usually goes down around 2 in the morning), but we have yet to identify the significant contributing factors.

Obviously, server downtime is an enormous problem for us, and we will be getting to the bottom of this as soon as possible.

Here's wishing everyone a great holiday season.

Cheers!

We launched our new game store here on paizo.com yesterday!

We're very excited about it, having worked for months to bring it to you. Naturally, it's a work in progress and will evolve as the days, weeks, and months progress.

You can contribute to making it a great place for gamers to shop by giving us your feedback here or at customer.service@paizo.com. So, if you like, ask questions, suggest improvements, and give us corrections for inaccurate product data you might find.

We look forward to serving you and your gaming needs.

We took paizo.com down for a few hours (roughly 10ish to 1:45ish today Pacific) while we moved the servers into our new office space.

Obviously, the site is now back up. : )


The surveys advertised in the latest Dragon and Dungeon issues will be on the site Tuesday or Wednesday (the 7th or 8th of September). Stay tuned, and thanks for your patience. : )

Anyone seen the Undefeated cheerleaders on the show floor?

I'm really looking forward to 30,000 people knowing that Undefeated, uh... exists!


A bunch of the guys and gals from Paizo are arriving at Gen Con Indy today. Me, I'm still here in good old Bellevue, WA.

Long story short, I want to hear all about the convention. So let's get these brand new messageboards started off with a big helping of Gen Con info!

If you are at Gen Con this weekend, feel free to dish out the Gen Con dirt right here!

How is D&D's 30th anniversary being celebrated?
Great new products?
Cool events?
Celebrities?
