Hello. This is a message to local convention planners and gameday organizers in the Midwestern Plains (Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, Wisconsin, maybe Michigan)
I've read through the Dragon's Demand module and started preparing it. I'm enthusiastic about the opportunity to run it at conventions /gamedays this coming season. as sanctioned PFS play. (What Dragnmoon named 'module mode' as opposed to 'campaign mode'.) Right now, it looks like each block would take 8-10 hours.
From January through April, I'd like to run Part 1: The Blood Vow Lair (Tier 1-3).
From April through June, I'd like to run Part 2: Hunclay’s Cave, Auction, and Crypt of Tula (Tier 3-5).
From June through August, I'd like to run Part 3: Monastery of Saint Kyerixus (Tier 5-7).
That way, maybe a player who enjoyed Part 1 might travel a little farther to a convention, to continue the saga.
If you have a long convention, we could run more than one part there, but I'm not sure it's a smart idea to run all three back to back without some intervening opportunity for gaining XP. I have my doubts that a party consisting entirely of 5th-level characters could succeed in Part 3.

I'll be announcing more details about Linkscon in a few days, but I can safely tell you that we run the show in early May. This will be our second year, and I'm anticipating 50+ tables this year.
Dates: May 2nd - 4th, 2014
Location: Fowlerville, Michigan
Venue: Game Links
If you find that you're willing to be in the area, I'd be happy to have you out. If you're more interested in standard gamedays, we run every other Sunday in Fowlerville.
PM me if you need specifics? I realize this would be a hike for you based on your message, but would be pretty sweet.

I'll try to keep this in mind when I start working on the schedule for Egypt Wars 2014 here in the next couple of months. I definitely think we would have enough interest to sit all three parts, but I havent had a chance to look at it myself to form an opinion on Level 5s running part 3. As such, I will defer to your opinion on that for the time being. :)
Edit: Dates are going to be April 11-13 next year, I believe.

Additionally, there is Winter Fantasy in Fort Wayne (http://wintfan.baldmangames.com/) February 6th-9th.
Not sure what the official stance would be on lengthy PFS games at that show, but I can dig for you if you like.
I would consider it a kindness. Right now, the website information for Pathfinder Society and for judges are stubs.

Chris, we could schedule this in Milwaukee if you wanted. We could do:
1st part at Conflagration in February
2nd part at GaryCon at the end of March
3rd part at Milwaukee Summer Revel or Nexus Game Fair in JuneOr, if you get other takers, we could do just one of the parts at any of them.
When is Conflagration?

Conflagration, at least the one in Milwaukee as there appears to be a few in other areas, is usually the 3rd or 4th weekend in February.

No, Brad. Gamicon -- Iowa's oldest running gaming convention -- is already packed to the gills with "Siege of the Diamond City", Bonekeep #1 and #2, and every single Season 5 scenario currently offered,as well as the late-Season-4 arcs. There's just no room on the schedule to squeeze in something else.
At least, not officially. If we get a few people interested, I'd be happy to find a table and run Dragon's Demand, Part 1 during some open time.
