[Community Project] Wayfinder #15 Call for Submissions

[Snorter]

Can you put aside a copy of #14 and #15 for me, please?
Colour if possible.

I am intrigued by the ribbons, kind of like medals for manning the trenches, in the Gamer Wars.
"You kids today, with your 'skype' and your 'steam', you don't know you're born. You never had your dice confiscated, because of a media scare. You never had to draw dots on a sugar cube, or pull chits from a tin cup."

If you were a contributor for the PaizoCon issue, a b/w copy is held back for you. That has always been the "payment" for contributors, if they want it. I will post a Google poll again, so we can get mailing addresses.

If you want a color copy, or the Winter issue (#14)....those are special limited printings that we try and do if we have raised enough funds to do so. We unfortunately cannot give those out as contributor copies. However, copies of those can be acquired via a donation at the store at PaizoCon, or at the Paizo.com store after PaizoCon. Those donations go directly to funding our giveaways for next year's PaizoCon.

I thought the b&w copies were sent out with subs?

Only if you were not AT PaizoCon to get it, and ONLY if you have a subscription.

Paizo is VERY generous, by helping send out the contributor copies as part of their shipping system. If you HAVE a subscription, it is usually included with one of your shipments. If you don't, it goes out to the address you provide to us (usually the one attached to your Paizo.com account).

I won't get to this until after PaizoCon though. Target for shipping the contributor copies is up to Paizo and their schedule.

I contributed to issue 15, but I live in China. Any chance of me getting a B&W copy shipped here?

We will have to see what Paizo can do...

Like I said, I will create a Google Form in June, and notify all my contributors to go and fill it out. I will submit that to Paizo (who will have all the copies) and will work with them.

[Thomas LeBlanc]

Have fun at PaizoCon folks! Hope to make it again next year.

Same here! I wish I could go.

I'm attempting to conscript a friend of mine into picking up a color copy while he's there. We'll see how it goes!

Just for all of you that don't "Like" our Facebook page, here is the cover for #15

I would counter that with bets on how many times the word "bandits" will appear......;-)

So close to finding out which one will win out in total usage in this volume: 'river' or 'bandits'...

[Nightdrifter]

It's live!

Thanks for the heads up!

[theheadkase]

I wonder how much Neil had to trim off his initial foreward...

His 2 copper is actually usually around 5 gold.

EDIT: And thanks to Snow Conrad for the art for the personal scrivener's guild!

[Nightdrifter]

So ... apparently there's an unannounced compilation project. See page 71.

[Jacob W. Michaels]

Some beautiful art in this one.

Cover's great and thanks so much to Tanyaporn Sangsnit for the beautiful illustrations of Honit and Chittri (he's so cute; no one's going to think he's the Woe -- heh heh) and to Basil Arnould Price for the chosen sovereign art (love the stained glass and halo).

[Matt Duval]

Very much agreed on the art. Thank you very much to Dave Mallon for some really amazing and creepy Hanspur follower art. And to Chris Kimball (I think?) for the Hearth Wraith art. Outstanding :)

Heh, heh. Caught that, did you?

[Nightdrifter]

Updated my quick and dirty analysis of the composition of wayfinder issues here.

"Bandit" ~32 occurrences

"River" >32 occurrences by page 2

I love the "Rats of Canboulon" - what a great piece!

Thanks so much! We had a load of fun writing it.

[Timitius]

Seriously, people...the product discussion thread needs some love. Comment, review, chastise, berate....whatever this issue prompts you to do.

Just please give our contributors feedback!

I know this isn't you Timitius, it is Paizo, but any word on when these might show up? I'm just not sure where to look to see if it has arrived in my account and how I go about getting it to me. Sorry if that make me sound dumb, but I'd rather sound dumb and not miss out than realize I got missed somehow.

Any other contributors (to #15 or other) have any information that can help me out with this?

[Timitius]

I submitted the list of contributors' info in mid/late July, and then Gen Con hit. Paizo CS told me that they'd be addressing our contributor copies in shipments AFTER Gen Con.

Historically, contributor copies have NEVER gone out before Gen Con. Paizo usually gets things started for September shipments, but circumstance could delay this..you know, stuff happens. I trust Paizo completely to send them out when they are able.

I remind EVERYONE that Paizo does this because they AWESOME, not because they have to. They have been wonderful in supporting this fan effort, and my personal gratitude to Customer Service knows NO bounds.

So, all I can do for you all at this time is to check in with Paizo to see how things are going, and to ask all our contributors waiting for their copy to please have patience.

Thanks,

Tim

That's perfect. A big thank you to you, and everyone else who helps with Wayfinder, for putting together this awesome fanzine and including people like me. Plus a big thank you to the Paizo team for their support. As long as I'm not the only one waiting, I have all the patience in the world.

[Timitius]

Just got word on Friday that the Wayfinder #15 contributor copies are now in the system and are prepped to go out within the week.

Thanks for your patience, and be sure to thank Paizo for agreeing to do this again!

Tim

[Snorter]

Got my copy, thanks everyone involved.

[Belabras]

Yes, copy received. Thanks so much!

[Kelly P]

Hooray! My beautiful copy arrived in the mail today.
Once again, great work everyone!
