I'm glad that Paizo did this, congratulations to the winners and I hope that everyone can start playing goblins in a couple years because we just got aasimars, tengus, and tieflings, if not I can try to see if my home game GM will allow them in his current or future campaigns.
Long live Mogmurch!
Things go boom win Mogmurch Throws
Much more fun than using bowsSometimes where the Boom Boom Blows
It's not my fault, That's how it goes!

Goblins are seen as dangerous vermin throughout the inner sea area. Now unless said goblin is going to exclusively play mods set in Katapesh there's a serious issue of verisimilitude here. I've played mods where you attend high class dinners and address nobles. Hell I have been into the heart of government for one of the major powers of Golarion and addressed their head of state. Now we have playable goblins in PFS who will be able to do the exact same thing. It would be like the Queen of England inviting a rabid wolverine to a state dinner.
Plus how exactly do Goblins become Pathfinders? They have a social phobia of writing, love to set things on fire and live in disgusting squalor. What pathfinder in his right mind thinks that Goblins would make any contribution to the society? What possible benefit does the Decimverate get from allowing illiterate, baby eating pyromaniacs into the ranks?None that I can see. Worse it turns the position of Pathfinder into a laughing stock. So easy a Goblin could do it.
Does seeing a Paladin of "Yo, Meedee!" named Dumas Sacco-Hammurz also break your immersion with the setting?
