Houston - RA Salvatore & Tracy Hickman - PFS at Space City Con - Aug 10 - 12

[Space City Con]

Space City Con is an all-ages festival of comics, sci-fi, fantasy, gaming, literature, and art, in the spirit of Houston, Texas! Envisioned as a "geek festival with free parking," SCC is conveniently located at the Westin Galleria convention center & hotel, August 10 – 12, 2012. Our goal is to put on the best convention possible for current generations of fans, and instill a love of , comics, Sci-fi and fantasy in the next generation.

Along with 24 hour Gaming, we are honored to host RA Salvatore as the first stop on his summer signing tour, and also NY Times best-selling legend Tracy Hickman, whose Eventide and "Wayne of Gotham" (June release) are making it a great summer! Tracy & Laura plan to bring "Killer Breakfast" to Houston.

You can find more information on our website, which has a "Warhorn" link under the "Gaming" tab. Games will begin to be placed and slotted over June and July. Hotel is the 4-star Westin Galleria, discounted for our group rate from $179 down to $105 per night.

Any direct questions, please email us "[e-mail]", find us on Facebook or Twitter "@SpaceCityCon".

I'll definitely be GMing society there, possibly some of the late-night slots.

[Kelly Youngblood]

In fact, I will be coordinating Society Play there. Join us for the finale of season 3! Or enjoy some classics from seasons 0 and 1, as well as Crypt of the Everflame and Houston's first ever run of 3-EX: The Cyphermage Dilemma.

We are now recruiting GMs. GM 2 slots for free admission. GM 3 slots (or the entirety of Crypt of the Everflame) and get something special.

You can sign up through the Warhorn link here. Please also email me at [e-mail] so I can add you to my GM list.

[Kelly Youngblood]

I'd like to take a moment to thank everyone who's signed up to GM so far. In our first ten days of GM recruitment, we filled 21 of 33 GM slots.

12 slots remain open, mostly on Saturday and Sunday. Let's fill those as fast as possible!

To get started, contact me at [e-mail].

[Kelly Youngblood]

Only 5 slots remain open. Sign up now to claim your free badge!

We're also counting down to the end of June, which means the end of your chance to get an early registration discount.

Sign up now, and let's show a big start for PFS at space city con!

[Kelly Youngblood]

One GM is still needed for The Golden Serpent, and The Midnight Mauler on Sunday.

With GMs 93% settled, time to start filling the tables with players. Get your badge and sign up!

[Kelly Youngblood]

After canceling a couple no-hoper slots, we are full on regular GMs, but feel free to volunteer as a "standby" GM.

I've also made arrangements with Lone Wolf to have Herolab on-site for easy character building.

I just happened across this thread at the last minute. I should be down in Houston Friday the 10th through Sunday the 12th and can GM anything you need me to.

Edit: Well, less so now that I've scheduled some games. :)

Check your PMs regarding that.

[Kelly Youngblood]

10 days to go!

[TriOmegaZero]

Got my refund! Looking forward to it!

[Alceste008]

I am looking forward to this Con being close by so I can make it there. :)

And just 1 week away.

[Kelly Youngblood]

In case of emergency, unleash Squealy Nord!

That's right, I'm worried about GM coverage on Sunday, and looking for volunteers to run "We Be Goblins" if needed on Sunday.

[TriOmegaZero]

*ahem*

Thank you.

Warnhorn will cut off on Wednesday morning at 10 AM for pre-mustering. Please make sure you are signed up by then. Any changes made after that time will be lost.

[Demoyn]

I haven't looked forward to a convention this much in a decade. Hopefully I'll have some time to get in a few rounds of PFS while I'm there!

[Demoyn]

Ooh. I haven't posted here in a while. We have GM stars over our posts now. Guess I'll have to start GMing more!

[Kelly Youngblood]

Warhorn is now closed for pre-mustering. See you there.

[Kelly Youngblood]

By popular demand:

Warhorn will remain open until the con starts. Just don't complain if you can't read my writing on the sign-in sheets.

We Be Goblins has been officially added to the schedule Sunday.

[TriOmegaZero]

I am officially on leave and will be in attendance. Looking forward to rocking some dice.

[Kelly Youngblood]

To put things in perspective:

Space City con now has 35 tables of PFS planned and mostly filled.

This year's Owlcon had 30.

[Kelly Youngblood]

I now have 36 tables to report.

Bigger. Than. Owlcon.

*passes out*

Kelly, a big thanks to you and the rest of the GM's for putting on a well organized and fun PFS event! I've had the pleasure to play PFS at a variety of venues all across the U.S. and this event was as well run as them all.

It was great to put a face to the names of the local Houston Pathfinder Society and make those connections for future games!

I dig that Kelly's created http://houstonpfs.com/ to help organize the local Pathfinders.

Looking forward to more PFS!

[Kelly Youngblood]

Reporting is now complete. Please contact me if you find any errors.

[Sans_Serif]

Thank you, Kelly. Helluva job.
