Looking for other events and activities to fill your PaizoCon event schedule with? One of the great things about PaizoCon is that there’s lots of flexibility and room for last-minute activities!

There will be an event trading table, set up outside of the store or Delve area, where people can take and leave event tickets. So if, for example, someone has to drop out of a game or panel with very short notice, or they find something else they’d rather be doing, they can leave their ticket on the table for someone else to take.

As in previous years, we have a bunch of events that are set up for folks to just drop by whenever. Some examples include:
• The Reaper Paint and Take area will be set up in the convention store where you can get expert advice while painting a free miniature.
• You can catch a sneak peek of the upcoming Pathfinder Kingmaker video game or try out Pathfinder Online in the store.
• We also have Delves just outside the store, which are 20-60 minute drop-in encounters run by various members of Paizo staff. This year’s delves will include options for Starfinder and the Pathfinder Playtest!
• Glass Cannon Podcast will have an HQ room in Cascade 10 for pick-up games
• On Saturday and Sunday from 10am to 5pm, Evergreen 3 will be set up for playing Munchkin Pathfinder and Munchkin Starfinder.
• Evergreen 3 & 4 will also have 8 open gaming tables for anybody to set up their own board, card, or RPG games. The best thing about PaizoCon is that you’re in a space with people who enjoy the same things as you, so you could even set up your own game and grab passersby who are interested!
• Hero Lab will be present with a Character Creation Station
• On Monday, from 10:00 am to 1:00pm, some of the rooms will feature “Gaming With Paizonians” – where Paizo staff will host some of their favorite board, card, and video games!

Aside from that, there are empty slots and pickup Organized Play games throughout the day. You can always stop by Organized Play Headquarters in the Grand Ballroom and ask if there are any slots available.

Keep in mind that many of the Panels end up with open seats, so if you interested in a Panel that you didn’t get a ticket for – it doesn’t hurt to check in when the panel is starting, to see if you can grab a seat!

Hopefully this info is helpful! The printed program book should contain all of this information and more, so that will also help you find some fun activities.

Thanks, and we’ll see you at the show!

The printed program book will also have instructions for the PaizoCon Puzzle Hunt!

Those instructions will lead you to a freely available packet of seven puzzles, which are great for filling time before seminars or between games, winding down at the end of the day, and working on with new friends! Plus there'll be a prize (while supplies last) for those who complete the whole thing.

There's a wide range of puzzles, from word search and spot-the-difference to logic and word puzzles, and Jason Keeley and I will be available to answer questions at the end of each day (or whenever you spot us at the convention).

so as I have been trying to ask through out the forums. Is this going to be strictly PFS or is it a combo of PFS and SFS ?

just trying to figure out where to look for pick up SFS play.

I've amended the post. Saying PFS instead of Organized Play is proving to be a hard habit for us to break!

I figured it might be that =)
