Good morning, Paizo crew & boards:
I have been a 7-slot RPGA judge the past two GenCons (2008 and 2009), but I would rather support Paizo and the PFS going forward. To that end, I wish to volunteer at Gen Con 2010 as a Tier 1 8-slot judge, but I have a few questions before officially committing. I am aware that this forum is not the appropriate venue for signing up (my understanding is that I would email Josh directly for that)... but I thought I might get my outstanding questions answered faster here.
1. Regarding lodging at the Marriott -- I understand Paizo picks up a quarter of the room cost -- but what about booking the actual room? Do we have to handle this ourselves or does Paizo have a "block" of rooms set out for its GMs where they book it and we pay the difference?
2. I assume spouses are welcome in the rooms, and we will not be sharing them with another GM? In other words, we have our own room and privacy.
Thanks for any clarification that you can offer, Paizo staff. I only ask because I am used to the RPGA's way of doing it, and I want to know ahead of time what I need to be prepared for in terms of GenCon planning so I can run Pathfinder for you guys instead.
