Mike, any chance you could add more tables for Friday night Legacy of the Stonelords? I know it's a rats chance in a round mountain, but I figured I'd ask.

I don't have any additional tables to add because we don't have any more physical space. All 150 tables in the Sagamore for both the Thursday night and Friday night specials are utilized specifically for them and no other events. We had 900 total seats. I put 900 tickets up for both events.

Dark Archive 4/5

Understandable Mike. I used to have to muster everything in Sagamore special wise for Baldman games. I just had a hope that you'd have a few extra tables off somewhere. Thank you for quick honest answer, much appreciated sir.

As one of the GM's running 5 tables, of 5-13, after seeing signup rates, I'd welcome trading out some sessions for 5-08, WBG, WBG2, or 6-01. Heck, outside of 6-01, it wouldn't even take any prep. I could bring the other 3 as alts for on the fly changes. I don't know if 6-01 has any fun NPC's to play, but the other 3 are a blast.

(Nothing against 5-13. Really looking forward to running that too. It has the most epic battle I've seen in any pathfinder mission. Can't wait to see how it goes over with groups.)

Just as a heads up I have sent Gen Con a request to make adjustments to all slots except 3 and 6.

Some GM schedules will change and those will be sent out tomorrow after I receive confirmation from Gen Con of the approved changes. Essentially, adding more WBG and WBG2, 5-08, 6-01, and a few other misc. adjustments. Removing a few tables each slot of 6-02, 6-03 some early season 5 such as 5-06, 5-09, 5-13, and 5-18 among others.

I assume you're only removing tables of unsold tickets, so it won't affect anyone who's already gotten their tickets, right?

Well, that will muck up all my running stats! I'm glad you can make changes, that should make a lot of players happy. Oh, Thursday night's Special sold out in the past day or so.

The stats were great for the rest of us to see. I'm very happy that Mike is addressing stuff quickly to more efficiently fill tables. Hard to predict what everyone's tastes will be ahead of time.

Of note:
The ones with added slots...more level 1 stuff.
The ones being removed...
5-06 - level 3-7
5-09 - level 3-7
5-13 - level 5-9
5-18 - level 5-9

Wondering if that is significant as far as stats go. Haven't tried to look at the % stats above by level range.

Is Paizo giving GM's the scenarios they're running for free or do we need to buy them?

Similarly, if we're signed up to demo the card game, do we need to bring our own or will paizo have a demo copy for us to use?

Yes, you will receive your scenarios. They will be placed in GM accounts by the middle of June if not earlier. For the three season 6 scenarios, those will be available in the beginning of August.

We will also gave demo decks available in the dealer hall and base sets available in the card game OP room.

So..., it's the middle of June...

Any word on the scheduling change?

I am assuming that if I have not received an email that my sessions have been changed, I am still running everything I was originally booked to run?

It looks like the schedule changes are on the GenCon website. I was able to grab a ticket to the Thursday 1:00 Destiny of the Sands Pt1 that was not available before. Still plenty of time for alternate prep, since we are 2 months out.

I myself am wondering this, since I am scheduled to run both 5-06 and 5-18. I assume that if we were the ones whose schedule had changed Mike would have emailed us by now, but I am curious as well.

I find your abundance of faith... amusing. Like TOZ, I am more worried about my scenarios for Paizo con. Just be patient. Scenarios will arrive when they are meant to arrive. Neither earlier nor later.

Customer service is in the middle of kickstarter fulfillment and subscriptions. They have the new schedule and will start working on getting people their scenarios as soon as possible. Since we are still two months out, please bear with us.

I can confirm that several of us in the Twin Cities have received this email. I get to torment the convention floor by having players singing the Licktoads song now!

I got Traitor's Lodge, but not the new season opener or Assault on the Wound. I figure I will get Assault once it comes out and 6-00 about two weeks before Gen Con.

There are 278 volunteers. I have to manually enter each scenario into each GM account. It's going to take a few weeks.

Seems like not offering a new 7-11 is working out.

#6—01: Trial by Machine 640/828 (77% sold)
#6—02: The Silver Mount Collection 406/516 (79% sold)
#6—03: The Technic Siege 314/396 (79% sold)

In the past the new 7-11 was lucky to sell 50% of available tickets and often had trouble forming tables.

Hmmm...

Season 5 released a 1-5, 3-7. 5-9 + Special

Looks like seasons 1, 2, 3 and 4 did though.

Should I be worried?

#5—18: The Stranger Within 67/150 (45% sold) (I have 3 slots of this)

#5—23: Cairn of Shadows 142/234 (61% sold) (two slots of this)

Even We Be Goblins hasn't filled!

I am sort of expecting them to magically fill with generic tickets, but was just wondering. :)

John said when they're done you'll get them in your box. Mike has to hand-jam the code to send to everyone one by one.

I wish I could see their system and maybe write a quick perl script to do it for them, because that's just annoying.
