Just no THUNDERLIPS! cosplays, PLEASE.

I don't think anybody wants to see that.

I don't even own a thong; silk, leather or otherwise.

We can fix this.

Ah, I've started dreaming about party composition for my SkålCon games... The most wonderful time of the year.

mmm party composition...

Smoked Salmon... Grilled Caesar Salad... Keg of Cider... mmmmm

You forgot Hawaiian shirts and sandals!

Are flip-flops okay instead of sandals? Asking for a... friend.

In Australia we call them thongs.

We love to confuse people :D

I’ve offered. He keeps saying no. He’s not home tomorrow. The sewing machine might come out....

I have slimmed down a fair bit in the recent past...

[Dicky Serpico]

SWAT starts Gallowspire prep tomorrow by taking out the trash from a few levels of the emerald spire or some s#$%.

You should all be relieved. I was not able to spend the day making something for him to wear. You are safe from a Thunderlips cosplay. This year.

Considering the amount of fabric needed, or not depending on yer viewpoint, I’m disappointed.

If looks could kill....

[Leg o' Lamb]

One week.

One week until the shenanigans begin again. I can't wait.

[Wei Ji the Learner]

I can.

...but only by the barest of margins...

[Lindley Court]

Question! One of my partners has minimal TTRPG experience, but was interested in coming to the convention just to observe and see what it's like. She would just be at the tables I'm playing at on Saturday, observing but not playing. Is that workable? I don't want to force any reorganization or unnecessary trouble.

Thanks!

[Andrew Torgerud]

Yes absolutely!

An extra chair shouldn't be much trouble. and who knows? maybe they might want to try some ACG?

[Hmm]

Sasha, your observer friend just became my runner for the special!

[Wei Ji the Learner]

I have progressed past 'barely waiting' to 'eagerly anticipating'.

Let there be shenanigans.

[Silbeg]

And Shenanigans there will be

Including the ability to pay money to make life harder on SWAT!

Oh, and if you are there early, chances to use your money to affect the game of Paranoia!

[Hmm]

Wait... I can pay money to make life harder for SWAT? Woo-hoo! Take my money!

Hmm

PS Just kidding. I love SWAT. But you can take my money anyway.

[CptJames]

There better be lots of photos on Facebook. #FOMO

[wolaberry]

Silly thought. What if Tonya is able to break the plush skittermanders out of the Paizo offices and bring them to the charity auction? Any ideas about what they'd sell for?

What the market will bear, or; how much are you willing to spend?

Don't Kid - we aren't! Enough money and SWAT will face enemies worse than the Highest Champion Tier!

When you've sent in the rest, Now Send in the BEST!

Yeah I don't think we are going to have to worry about that...

Remember! Our misery is Tubman's gain!

[Wei Ji the Learner]

Is there a limit to 'how high' the difficulty can be jumped? Not saying that anyone has the kind of dosh to swing it, but if someone say, dumped 10K on it, would they be able to dictate that say, a Tarrasque or other Kaiju showed up?

[Woran]

How much to outright kill Jon's character?
How much for Jack his character to loose a limb?

Regeneration is a domain spell for me so even if this happens I can fix it.

Dickey dying on the other hand is a very real possibility. I mean, the dude's AC is 17. I do have a lot of hit points and all of my healing spells are empowered so I have that going for me which is nice. Thirteen channels per day is nice as well.

[Gary Bush]

Sorry if this has been asked and answered but....

Do we need to have chronicles and sign up sheets for the tables we are GMing?

No; those will be provided for you.

We are fully aware. The amount of planning going into this table is nuts.

Holy Muskets, y'all.

[Officer Rikki Gunderson]

Preparation is half the battle.
How many consumables and special ammunition are we bringing?

All of them!

[Ramon 'Ray' Azure]

Will you need more? I may know a guy.

[Leg o' Lamb]

There is some serious cooking happening right now. They really need to develop smel-o-post.

[TriOmegaZero]

I have my chronicles! I wish I didn’t! They’re heavy!

[Wei Ji the Learner]

Waiting to board flight.

[NielsenE]

Got my flight tomorrow, looking forward to my first SkalCon; have heard so many great things from people.

[Lindley Court]

I'm on a bus! (cue T-Pain verse)

[numbat1]

Waiting in Phoenix for my next flight. Why hasn't teleportation become a real thing yet?

Lies. All lies.

Waiting for my flight as well - slight delay. Pretty excited for my first Skalcon!

[NielsenE]

but are you lying about that?

[Hmm]

The only downside about paying to make things more difficult for S.W.A.T. is that most people will be busy themselves in the special. Will there be special announcements about killing S.W.A.T. at strategic points in the special?

Ooh, for those of us NOT in the special... Can we pay extra for ringside seats to watch S.W.A.T. shenanigans? Who do you all have tormenting you as a GM?

[Gary Bush]

I will be hitting the road about 7am to drive up. About 6 hours from Omaha.

[Wei Ji the Learner]

A huge shout-out for the hospitality of the Minnesota crew so far!

[Hmm]

It's already been an amazing convention. I so loved my table of the soecial! Thanks to my entire team for playing with me!

Hmm

It will not take 10,000. But that certainly could happen.... Tonya may or may not offer specific monster choices for enhanced donations

You can totally buy a ring side seat!

And our GM will be none other than Tonya!

As a charity table, we (the 6 of us) went above and beyond to chip in $200 for her to run this game.
