I got three tickets for PaizoCon 2014. I am wondering if I need to gift the tickets to those that are traveling with me to the convention?
Each of us have Paizo accounts; is moving tickets to those accounts a requirement for the tickets or can I just pick up all three?
It is a requirement to transfer
You can transfer the tickets to their paizo.com account if they desire to have their own names on the badge (and customize the badge on their E-Tickets page) and pick lottery events when the Event Lottery opens. Either of the two cannot buddy up with you/each other for the Event Lottery if they don't have the ticket on their account.
It is not a requirement to have them transferred, however. If you decide not to gift them, two of the tickets will have a blank where the name can be written in and a line "Badge # for Your Name" will be underneath it in the usual alias spot.
It is a requirement to transferWe no longer make this a requirement, though when we started PaizoCon, this was the case.
Though not expressly indicated, I did assume they were interested in participating in the Lottery. Who wouldn't? And thus...
My bad,Z
Itty-bitty thread hijack: when do you expect to post the schedule for the lottery events? If you're not sure, or are reluctant to give a date at this point, can you remind me when last year's schedule was posted?
I will be attending again with my son (see, there was a connection to this thread...) and we like to pick events together - for various schedule reasons, there will be some times this spring that will be hard to do, so I'm trying to anticipate things.

FWIW I have an email from last year with Subject "PaizoCon 2013 Event Lottery Signup Reminder!" dated 6/10/13. This email, I do not believe was the first email (but it could have been). It also coincides with THIS thread post also dated 6/10/13.
I did also find this:
Event lottery signup began Jun 4, 2013, 05:00 PM
Event lottery signup closed Jun 11, 2013, 05:00 PM
Open event signup began Jun 14, 2013, 05:00 PM
Open event signup closed Jun 20, 2013, 05:00 PM
Event trading began Jun 14, 2013, 05:00 PM
Event trading closed Jun 20, 2013, 05:00 PM
I'm going to take a leap it will be sometime early June, approximately a month out before the con when we will see a schedule and then shortly after the release when you can submit.

Last year was a bit crazy and I'm working very hard to strangle wrangle cats and get ducks in a row in a more organized fashion. We've missed some of my hoped for time frames on some stuff but we're catching back up and honestly, we are in a much better position this year for staying organized and efficient.
