Skål Con 2017!

[Wei Ji the Learner]

Well, 3-7 is Tome of Righteous Repose, right?

[Aaron C. Malone]

It depends on the SkalCon schedule and if we did end up playing that, it'd have to be low tier. I've already played it with my Grippli Hell Knight.

[Grandfather Grippli]

"Tome of... Pig. Isn't that the adventure where we almost joined the ancestral choir? I think it was. Yes, I agree we should never go back to that place."

[thunderspirit]

I mean, if Thursty's gonna gack us all again, shouldn't it be with something else he wrote? You know, tradition and all that?

[Hmm]

I am now wondering if this should be a charity lottery event just to watch. Four gripplis hop in... How many will hop out?

Hmm

Not sure any of us are worth watching, LOL.

But I agree, this should be something to generate contributions for Tubman. It's why Skål Con is there, after all!

Perhaps bets on whether the gripplis prevail or it's frog legs for everyone. Sort of a "which side are you on?". Or maybe open it up to those who attend and GM. Or those who donate something to the auction. Or something like that.

[Hmm]

I know! Putting in a bet (no matter what kind) gives you chance at a grlippli in a lottery drawing. I'd even donate one as I have three of those boons.

Hmm

[TriOmegaZero]

Time off secured.

[Leg o' Lamb]

Wooooo!

[Aaron C. Malone]

Thunderspirit and I will be in MLPS through Monday for other shenanigans because who doesn't like shenanigans!

I would like to donate some items this year for the Auction, how would I go about placing those in?

[Silbeg]

So, for those of you wondering how I can register for all of this awesomeness, here is the answer.

Jump on over to SkålCon Registration and register away! We've got online payments up, so last year's delays are a thing of the past. There's even a nice shiny button to volunteer to be a GM this year (note, 2 slots are required for GM rewards). You will be required to create an account or login in order to register for this event, and please make sure you have your entered your full name, the email address associated with your PFS account, and your primary Paizo forum username. If you'd like, you can even note the number of GM stars you have received!

We will be featuring the premier of Starfinder Society in Minnesota the entire weekend. Friday night we will have several tables of SFS #1-00: Claim to Salvation, followed by all of the available content Saturday morning, Saturday afternoon, and Sunday.

Additionally, we will be running PFS #9-00 Assault on Absalom Saturday evening, including Adventure Card Game!

Plus you can start registering to play on one of our many VIP tables, where the likes of Thurston Hillman, Clinton Boomer, and other fine folks are donating their time make your SkålCon even MOAR AWESOME!

[Davor Firetusk]

Registered! Although not all of the premium tables where allowing sign-ups yet. Not sure if that was intentional or a weird glitch.

[TriOmegaZero]

Are we required to register with 2D Con? Having some trouble doing it with my phone.

Intentional.

Not all of the special tables are confirmed as of yet.

[TriOmegaZero]

Alright, sorted. Who wants me at their table for the special? :)

[thunderspirit]

Registered!

[Hulking Hurler]

Some of the premium tables are not letting me sign up. Are they reserved for auction?

[Hulking Hurler]

Whoops, just read Jon's post.

Bought my ticket to play at Thurston's 13-18 Saturday table. Hoping to get that CRB signed when I get one.

[TriOmegaZero]

Gotta pay attention for Boomers table to open up.

Just you, or Ms. TOZ as well?

I have registered for the SKalCon site... and I will request time when I am able. I don't start back to work until August 7th.

[Wei Ji the Learner]

No idea *what* I'm playing yet the thing I was worried about happening with Starfinder is happening, but I am registered.

[Aaron C. Malone]

BOOM! Registered.

[TriOmegaZero]

Flights are booked.

[Disk Elemental]

Time off has been secured, and room is confirmed. Good to finally make it to one of these!

[TriOmegaZero]

Room reserved. (Motel 6 may not be the best choice, but it's certainly cheap.)

[Andrew Torgerud]

*Bump*

Attention Players: Please be sure to register for your tables asap. We add tables based on demand and therefore assign GM's reactive-ly.

Also: The Premiere Tables pre-registration price ends on September 10th so signup soon for the few precious spots left at those tables!

It's gonna be a blast - looking forward to seeing all of you again!

[TriOmegaZero]

Room reservations updated. Some yahoos already have the presidential suite at the Radisson, so I guess the Phoenix crew (and Wei Ji) will have to settle for an executive room. :P

[thunderspirit]

I'll give up the presidential suite at the Radisson* for the low low price of ONE MILLION DOLLARS!

*:

I don't have the presidential suite at the Radisson, or any other suite there.

I do like The Nutcracker Suite, however.

[TOZ]

*makes it rain dollars*

*:

Monopoly dollars.

[thunderspirit]

MEDITERRANEAN AVENUE, HERE I COME!

[Hmm]

It's September! Time to think about SkålCon again!

This is one of the most truly awesome conventions that you can attend!

Hmm

[TOZ]

HYYYYYYYYYYYYYPE!

[Officer Rikki Gunderson]

Is there going to be a SWAT sighting this convention?

Maybe, but I doubt it.

[Ser Aloysius d'Aratas]

"Zee mightiest knight on lyfe rides for SkalCon!"

[Estara Potts]

"There has been a request for one's resources and services. It is hoped that there won't be a need for a signficant amount of mechanical calibration and/or decommisioning of equipment during the festival event nomenclature: SkålCon"

[Thorval Thorvalson]

"So many friends of Thorval will be there. Or future friends." ponders the Ulfen brawler. "Friends of Lucky, too. I will bet I get to try pinching something else in the face, or maybe wrestling another troll. Or practicing my magic. With Lefty and Righty, and beer as a spell component. There will be beer there, right?"

Be prepared to give a donation for those signatures! It is a charity convention, after all

[cyzzane]

And time off has been granted =D

[Karasuma Tazou]

A tengu pops seemingly out of nowhere and distributes business cards for a law firm based out of the Puddles.

"The law firm of Karasuma, Tazou, Tazou, Tazou, and Tazou will be present for at least a portion of this event, in case anyone either needs to press suits or settle injury claims against any of a number of given parties.

In addition, we provide pro bono defense work for those who have been incarcerated by legal authorities while in pursuit of the goals of the Society."

...they then vanish from sight once again.

[Andrew Torgerud]

*looks at the calendar*

*sniffs the air*

"mmmmmm"

1 week. 7 days. 170 hours. 10,200 minutes.

91 tables of madness. 3 crazy authors. 1 great cause.

Raffle for many other great items... a food drive for that great cause... 3 crazy authors...

It's almost here!

[THUNDERLIPS!]
