-Magma sharpening stone- cool idea, slight alteration (limiting uses perday) made it in my Kingmaker game as a gift from Magnar Varn.
-Patchwork Kitty- weird, useful, disgusting, awesome, and memorable: I have a friend that is begging for this for his witch!
-Phonex feather and its brother item- Had the same idea but you guys split your votes, one was written slightly better than the other but kudos to both, great minds think alike!
-Both versions of Abadar's purse/moneychanger- awesome-sauce gave me a great campaign lead (the one that charged 10%) as all of the gifts from the church of Abadar had a greedy side effect.
-Golden Monkey of Greed- you are already a beloved item in my kingmaker game and you really impressed me, how you missed the top 32 is beyond me, you are awesomesauce.
-Will look this up when home but someone made an item that turns into a submersable watercraft that I though was kind of awesome, just not home at time of post.
I'm holding off on my favorites that didn't make the top 32 (which is about 2 dozen items) for a day or three.
Let the 32 have some time in the sun!

Yes, pay more attention to ME!

Us! I mean us!
In all seriousness though, the one thing I have to know is this:
Yep... that was me.
Was that the one with the hairstyling requirement?
Yep... that was me.
For real? Kudos man. I can see a party using it to infiltrate a Dwarven city. Ahem. And, er, well, isn't that enough?

I plan to wait until Friday like Sean requested we do before I start trying to discuss items that didn't make it.
Shower them with praise and confetti.
I am bursting to see if my item was a favorite, but I will wait.

I loved the body bag item that let you stuff a corpse into it. The group I gm for is obsessed with collecting dead npcs for interrogation later. Thought this item would be absolutely perfect! I wish I'd had the forethought to grab the info on it so we could use it in our game. Oh well. Kudos to whomever wrote that!

Beardforge and the bag of gold you could throw as shuriken where my favorites
Beardforge and Patchwork Cat were definitely up there for me.

A lot of items I liked didn't make it :(
Beardforge and the bag of gold you could throw as shuriken where my favorites
Haha, oh yeah, I liked that one too!
Oh and the hydraulic push alchemy gloves. Can't remember the name.
The Captain's Tricorne - the one that gives you a full crew of invisible servants plus lets you vaporize them to heal your ship.
The vial of create pit as a thrown splash weapon was interesting, I can see why it didn't make it though.
Never saw the gold shuriken, myself >_>
The Magpie Totem. I can't see why an adventurer would use it. But I liked it nonetheless.
The Jellyfish submarine (can't remember correct name on this one either), I'm kind of surprised it didn't show up. Voted for it every time it came up.
Loved, loved, loved the Frostshard (sp?). I immediately ported that thing into my game and wish I'd thought of it. So many cool applications for it, besides its stated purpose.
Whoever, wherever you are, waaaay cool. Pardon the pun.
The Captain's Tricorne - the one that gives you a full crew of invisible servants plus lets you vaporize them to heal your ship.
I remember that item... it was basically the text of the unseen crew spell, which means it was a spell-in-a-can.

Yet another spell I didn't know existed...
Ah, Pirates of the Inner Sea. Don't have that one, and haven't run any casters high enough to cast 5th level spells and thus tripped over it on the PFSRD. That would be why.
The spell was also listed in the Requirements section for the item. ;)
... I could have sworn it said unseen servant. WELP.
*schedules eye exam* Time for new glasses I guess.

The Seanettle Submersible! I loved that thing. It made my personal top 32.
Yes, that's it! Thanks.
Oh, just thought of one more. The window/painting that doubled as a hidey-hole. Made me think of the windows from Problem Sleuth.

Retreating Window. That's in my keep file and was in my personal Top 32.

I was also a fan of the Seanettle Submersible. Not perfect, but I liked it and I could see using it in game.
I also liked the Magpie Totem. I can see why it didn't make the Top 32, but I still really liked it.
Haven't seen anyone mention my item, yet. *cough* So you know...you should get on that. :P

I liked agirlnamedbob's item. The requirements for it fit the function perfectly, and I can easily imagine multiple members of the party fighting over it.
Well played. *slow clap*

Well, I'm going to be brave and let my item be up for criticism on Friday when that thread opens up. I'm pretty sure I know the problems with my item, but I'd still like to hear why others didn't like it (or thought it was good).

Way to put your neck out there, Cheapy. :)

Ishikawa's Purse was the awesome gold throwing as shruken item loved it...
Thanks, Cheapy! :P
I'm going to put my item up for critique once things open as well. I think I a.) played it a little too safe and b.) fell into a few traps, but I'm still proud of it as a first time submission.
Next year, y'all better watch yourselves, though.

Yeah sadly never saw that one, I would have recognized that name, or at least found it familiar.

If you're talking about the locket, that was mine. If it was the book, that was another guy who did my idea better.

Remember, we sorted through the items the community voted for the most times.
I remember a couple of those items. They were in the top 100. Patchwork cat, captain's tricorne, the corpse book item (can't remember its name, but I paid homage to it as something that would be required for Rappan Athuk), oh yeah the beardforge. We saw all of those. I think all of those were top 100 or so. (actually the beardforge might not have been top 100).
I believe that was my submission, and ya, after I posted it, I realized I didn't have a duration. I really thought I'd make the top 32, but after reading the other submission, I realized now that I should have added some visual text for flavor. Although I'm particularly pround of the hit/miss usage and that only a Druid could/can make them. Man, I was really looking foward to the next step.-Magma sharpening stone- cool idea, slight alteration (limiting uses perday) made it in my Kingmaker game as a gift from Magnar Varn.
Sadly the Druid-only limitation was the dealbreaker for me, I liked the item up until that line. Wasn't too fond of the weird "if you miss by less than X it's counted as a hit for duration" either. Seemed a bit too bookkeeping-heavy (as well as requiring the GM to tell the player the enemy's AC, or have to answer a question every round they missed >_>)

I loved the Patchwork Cat, it was SO cool! I could see my witch carrying one of those around.
...and I'm glad to see that people in this thread liked my item, but I'm not going to mention its name since I'm not sure if we're supposed to wait or not.
If you're talking about the locket, that was mine. If it was the book, that was another guy who did my idea better.
Really? I liked the locket... Though I also saw it first. I think I may have only seen the other one once. <<; Though, I'm learning my tastes may be rather philistine, so what do I know.

The patchwork cat was one of the highest ranked items that didn't make the cut, if that makes you guys feel better. (not THE highest, but one of). The blackbriar boots were another high ranked item that didn't make it. See, you guys have good taste :)
There were some matryoshka dolls that I really liked.
There was a dragon claw staff topper deserved some props and a chess themed amulet that was total awesome-sauce but I guess we should take a hiatus on this thread let the top 32 bask. This thread was by no means meant to disrespect your accomplishment guys, with the exception of a few I never saw I voted for each of you at one point or another.

They were top 89.

Well, I'm going to straight-up say that my body-container item was a lot more gimmicky. I'm thinking my big focus for next year will be coming up with a core concept and aesthetics with immediate "wham" factor, rather than coming up with a single effect and then spending 3 paragraphs clarifying that effect.
Well, regardless: Thank you!

I have to say I liked the Cubes of Crossbreeding. Not only were they fun, but the mechanics for crossing the two species were really easy and wouldn't bog down the game. Plus, you get to roll more dice, and who doesn't like that?
There were some matryoshka dolls that I really liked.Oh yeah! Matryoshka of the Planar Cadre! I upvoted that every single time. Great item!
The other was the a matryoshka that dealt with the elements. I thought it was really cool the way there were two sets of effects that could be mixed and matched.
I'm glad I saved both of them off, because they're both going to see use in my games :)
Cubes of Crossbreeding! Those were sweet too.
