What will the description be on Warhorn?

We will need to register on Warhorn and also have a GenCon Ticket for Wednesday?

Thanks. Sorry if I am being a little dense right now.

As these are pickup games and not officially offered by GenCon, there will be no tickets.

Didn't James just say he was ticketing through GenCon?

Gencon should be able to allocate space Wed for the games, so I'm making Gencon events $0 tickets for Wed. I'll post when they get published for you guys. But you should be able to find them by searching for Risner on wed games. This way I don't need to worry about sourcing and securing space for two days, just for Sunday.

[TriOmegaZero]

Missed that. Looks like the Wednesday games will require tickets but the Sunday games won't?

[Matt Duval]

Not sure if this is for a closed circle or open to everyone, but I'd love to participate on Wednesday in any capacity. :-) [Flight gets in at 1:30 so probably just the evening unless I get a fast shuttle]

The Wednesday games being dicussed here are looking to kick off around 6 or 7 pm, depending on when the VC and higher go to their dinner.

Until then, may of us will be helping to setup the room.

[Sin of Asmodeus]

Wednesday has a 2pm gamr as well.

[James Risner]

Since I was advised finding space Wed would be more difficult than Sunday, I'm using Gencon's recommended way to handle space Wed. $0 tickets from GenCon.

We will do Warhorn for Sunday, and I'll only need to track down and secure space for one day and one session. Less stress on me.

TL;DR
Wed 2pm and 7pm will be Gencon $0 tickets.
Sun 7pm will be Warhorn and I'll find us a space like the previous years.

[James Risner]

Not closed, this is open to everyone.

[Gary Bush]

I will be watch for the Gen Con event.

[Sin of Asmodeus]

When do they go on sale James?

[Wei Ji the Learner]

So how do we get GenCon 0$ tickets?

For some reason it hasn't been showing me the events?

[TriOmegaZero]

The games need to be entered into the system first. No need to waste generics on this.

[eddv]

Oh I am very interested in squeezing a game in at 2PM wesnesday as the scottys slot is just a BIT too early.

[James Risner]

They haven’t been approved or assigned yet. I’ll post here when they go live.
If you want to GM I’ll tag you next to the ones on Wed as GM.

[James Risner]

Sorry this is confusing.
All coordination will be here, gencon tickets (when live) will be for play only. I don’t expect there to be an issue with everyone in her playing the ones you want, as I’ll do my best to notifications you all asap they are posted by gencon.

The Sunday stuff will go live as soon as my warhorn event is approved. None of that will be on gencon.

[James Risner]

Also, just to make it clear. I'm not trying to replace scotty's. I love what they are doing. I just can't get high level games going there, and I've failed at getting into tables every year I've tried since the first year I played there like 5 years ago.

[Sin of Asmodeus]

James,

I don't think anyone is accusing you of trying to replace Scotties. I'm going for breakfast Wednesday, however the offerings at Scotties arent engaging this year, which is why I asked for 8-20 and 8-25 for your event, so thanks for making it happen!

[CigarPete]

GenCon events are live

[Gary Bush]

Awesome!!!

Signed up for 8-25. I will be playing my 13.1 Unchained Monk.

[Ryan Blomquist]

Hey all,

I've been lurking in your thread watching as these develop. Do you have all the GMing scheduled for the Wednesday 7pm stuff? I searched through and didn't see anything about it, but I might've missed it because I just used Ctrl+F and flipped through the page quick while at work.

[Gary Bush]

Ryan, I don't believe all the GM spots have filed. If you would like to toss your hat in the ring, go for it. James will be doing the final coordination of the GMs.

[James Risner]

+1 GM not all been "sourced/assigned". If you can help, I'll be sorting that out next.

[Gary Bush]

BTW, it has been noticed by GenCon forum folks that the PFS games have been added to Wednesday. If there is a slot you want, best to get it ASAP.

[James Risner]

Also, if you can help GM these please send me a PM and I'll note you down as GM of the slots. I'll also get you a GM packet with the handouts, the reporting slips, etc the day of the events.

[Mimo Tomblebur]

I got mine for What Sleeps in Stone. Thanks!

[Wei Ji the Learner]

Likewise playing what Sleeps in with the Stone Fish.

Thanks for the head's up.

[James Risner]

Thanks CigarPete, you caught it before I did.

I just got approved for the Warhorn event on Sunday. I'll fill that out tonight when I get home.

[James Risner]

Hey Gino.. remember to pack the dang thing.

[James Risner]

I'll pack a back up of everything, just in case.

[Mimo Tomblebur]

I've wanted to run 6-04 Beacon Below for a while. I'll stay later and run it. (It's just a two hour drive home, and I gain an hour.)

Edit: entered myself on Warhorn with my real name, Eric Ives

Wish I didn't have to leave early Sunday now. Hope you have a great time with it :)

[Kyrand]

I haven't had a chance to run #4-11: The Disappeared yet, so I'll gladly volunteer.

Only have two unfilled! You guys rock!

[Sin of Asmodeus]

James,
Put in for boon support now for gameday 8)

[Hmm]

Do you need anything else from me, James?

Also... Will anyone have a hex map with them that I can borrow to draw the first map of Iron Bound Schism upon? I am traveling on the plane, and was not planning on bringing my medium Chessex map with me, largely because I don't think it would fit in the suitcase, and I only want to travel with one piece of luggage on the plane.

Hmm

[TriOmegaZero]

Cyzzane printed the maps for it when she was going to run it, I believe. They mostly fit in a standard folder, so I can bring them. Will doublecheck our scenario storage.

If you wind up needing a Chessex mat once you're there, I'd be happy to lend you one of mine. Both will make the trip.

[Upaynao]

Same here. My beat up mat will be making the trip of a lifetime.

[Hmm]

Okay, I made my intelligence check, and found the Warhorn Link.

I have now signed up to GM, and found at my table TOZ and Wei Ji. TOZ, if you have them, I will happily borrow printouts of the maps of Ironbound Schism. I think I can get hold of Giant Lairs, but if you have printouts, that would be awesome.

Are we going high or low tier? And do you realize that my brain may be gone?

Also thanks to all who say they'll be bringing Chessex maps. I will have my markers with, and may borrow, though any maps drawn will not be to my normal standards.

Hmm

Wish I was able to stay longer Sunday because I would burn a star to play at your table!

[Hmm]

Just to see me draw maps? < G >

Hmm

I have faith that you will be able to do just fine. I ran Kortos Envoy for BNW and TetsujiniOni from 11pm to IDK on last GenCon's Sunday night, and that was without maps even.

As to tier, I have a number of 10s, but fewer 7-8s. Hopefully we can premuster the table for you.

I'm not sure who if anyone I'll have in range at that point, we'll play it by ear. Also willing to play up depending on circumstances.

Also, I was at the 'table' that Steven mentions (it was more a coffee table in a lounge area, if memory serves) and it was actually kind of a good thing we didn't have maps.

Spoiler:

They haven't designed a 4-dimensional map yet.

[TriOmegaZero]

Really, we had just needed the seats. The table was immaterial.

Did anyone actually request 6-03 Beacon Below, or was that just James' guess as to something people would want? No one seems to be racing to sign up for it.

Alternatively, I could easily run my favorite level 7-11, 2-12 Below the Silver Tarn, if more people would be interested in that golden oldie.
