I may be able to make a day trip of it for one of the two days, I'll check and see how you're doing on GMs closer to time.

Given any thought to trying to run either of the specials?

Or do you think the turn out will be too small?

Sczarni 5/5

Hi Vance,
Probably not running the specials with only 3 tables per slot. I also know a few people attending have already played both of them. Is there anything you are interested in running that you don't see listed or open?

It really depends on which day if either I can attend.

Too early to know unfortunately.

Hi,
Still looking for some GMs. There are 2 slots on Saturday and 3 slots on Sunday that need some loving.

Due to no one signing up for the First Steps series, they have been replaced with:
* Slot 1 - Sewer Dragons of Absalom
* Slot 2 - TBD
* Slot 3 - Many Fortunes of Grandmaster Torch

Still looking for GMs of day 2 (Mar 25)

No prob Vance. If you can, awesome. If not, catch you at a different game!

Just wanted to give quick thanks to Rene for organizing the PFS line-up at Concentric this weekend. My wife and I were only able to attend yesterday, but we had an outstanding time.

Rene ran a great table of Cyphermage Dilemma (with hilarious mooks straight out of Goodfellas), and Dick Gilbert did an outstanding job with Quest for Perfection I and II. It's hard for me to think of a better way that I could have spent my birthday.

Thanks, gentlemen (and everyone else with whom we played yesterday)!

I also want to through a "thank you" out there to Rene. I have been to this convention in the past and I think this is by far the best I have seen the Pathfinder Society events organized and ran.

I drive down to this convention from Wisconsin and I have questioned if it was worth it in the past, but this year it was fantastic.

Aww shucks. Thanks Mike ^2.

This was the first time I organized a set of table at a convention. I had a blast, and have learned things that should be done better. (marketing anyone?).

It was odd to me that on Sunday, there were the 3 PFS tables going strong, but no one else was really around.

Ahh well. See you next time.

(also thanks for jumping in and GMing on Sunday AM Mike C)

Wish you coulda made it Sunday, cos we had a grand old time on Part III, though the GM -- that would be me -- apparently had it in for the party Cavalier. :-)

And let me echo the kudos -- Rene did a good job at a convention that's frankly had some serious issues in the past.

I wish we could have been there, too. Alas, something actually trumped gaming for once -- training for my half-marathon.

After everything had it in for my pirate in the first two slots on Saturday, good to hear that someone else was getting the love. ;-)

Chris and I are looking forward to picking up Part III soon.

Glad to hear your lovely bride had fun as well. :-)

No worries about missing the slot; I merely encouraged the party to castigate the ship captain for abandoning the party and at least two promised to shoot Xan on sight. (And, considering the ranged attack rolls I witnessed during Part III, Xan should have zero worries!)

I'd like to echo Mike's comments.
I had a wonderful time and thought Rene and all the GMs did an outstanding job!

ROFL! Xan *is* the sort who would end up on certain people's "Kill This Bint The Next Time I See Her" list. :-D
