With FGCon rapidly approaching, I'm wondering what tables we are expecting to see there.
I plan on running through the entire First Steps tree in the first part of the Con (friday and saturday) so that players get an opportunity to play these one last time and can level up early in the con.
I know Trenloe was talking about getting some Paizo support for the Con.. I'm wondering how that played out and what (if anything) we can expect to see as far as boons go.

Let's get some chatter going and make this thing great!

We didn't manage to get any Paizo support as a minimum of 16 tables are needed and I need to apply for this 8 weeks in advance. Hopefully next time...

I can't run anything because I only have a player license, but I'm of course interested in playing First Steps. Gotta use those replayable scenarios while they're still PFS legal ^^

I suppose you'll ask for the character xml in a seperate thread?

We'll be going game organisation, etc. through a separate website that damned has been working hard on. We're hoping to release it to the hordes this weekend...

Hopefully next time...Knowing this goes a long way toward letting us know what goals we need to set for ourselves as far as organization goes. Hopefully everyone will keep this in mind for the big con in the fall.

I'll certainly be up for the First Steps scenarios as I haven't played them before...only one PFS scenario under my belt so far! I'll be around for the Saturday night and possibly Friday night (UK Time Zone) if that works.

Once the site goes live you'll be able to sign up for the games that we are setting up... there will be games in many different time slots.. I think that the Australian slots were a bit sparse last time...

There'll be others.

When the website goes live GMs will be able to add their events and you'll see what is on offer.

I will but I started to zone out with 2 pages of how to check what time zone I was in. :square:

That's my plan. :D
There are some other games on the list so far... and everyone from the group is encouraged to run some.

Mmm... I could participate in this!

I'll have to see what's going to be up for play, but I'm definitely up for First Steps (I don't think I've ever actually played part 3 to that). I have two many concepts for alts in PFS it's probably a bad idea to encourage me to actually make them, but fun is fun!

Unfortunately, I don't get much advance notice on my schedules. So until I get it I can't schedule anything.

Currently there are 9 Pathfinder Events (6 Society games) scheduled for the Con. Most of them are full or near full so I am thinking that the odds are good that a last minute game would fill up quickly if any GMs are finding they might have some time to run one.

The other ruleset games are not filling up nearly as quickly so anyone interested in trying out another ruleset... this is a great opportunity to do so. Check out the events list (https://www.fg-con.com/events/) to see what's available.

And keep checking the "Latest News" page to see what is going on - this is where new events and further announcements will be made.

Look out for an exciting announcement in the next 24 hours! :)
