Any suggestions to grab a couple extra players for your game prior to the end for this of us that not getting the full loadout in our group.
I can call on people I know however the reason for a con is to display to players that perhaps not tried it before.
Hello Ardem - yes the Con format is intended to open Fantasy Grounds and alternate game systems up to new players but we also need our regulars too! Sometimes a game or a time doesnt have as much mass appeal and will not fill up. I have plugged your game on G+ as has Doug and he has also posted it to FB I think. I have also put it on Enworld. Please do help round up some players too if you can. I have made over 90 posts on gaming groups and media but after a while more posting by me just becomes background noise.... Invite your friends, or invite gamers that havent played with you in a while. We have a couple of Savage Worlds and 5E games too that need a few more players. We even have a Pathfinder game being run by a very experienced GM that has 0 bookings - fortunately it is the only game that has no bookings - but we o have 7 games that need at least one more player to meet the GMs minimum numbers.
I hope damned that you did not think I was belittling any effort you guys have put in, which have already been huge.
I was just wondering on any thoughts or ideas to find a player or two, as I will aim to get a regular member to fill the slots.
Thanks again for all your and the crew efforts in the CON as usual you guys doing a top notch job. Really look forward to this think starting now.
Promoting FG Con on social media and rpg forums seem to be the most effective way. As Damian pointed out, since he's about the only one trying to fill in spots he'd appreciate if everybody helped out. But he's too nice to ask so bluntly. He isn't getting paid for that, this is community driven, which means we need everybody to help make the internet aware of FG Con.
Good luck with your game Ardem, it looks like fun. My plate is a bit full for the Con but otherwise I'd have enrolled.
Hola Ardem!
No offense taken :) As Mask said - any and all help with promoting FG Con is welcome - and needed!
Mask is very helpful out there on G+, sometimes it feels like he and I are in an echo chamber though.
Invite anyone with a pulse and a computer!
regards
Damian
Or even anyone without a pulse and a computer. As long as they can type. We're not discriminatory against the undead.Quote:

I was going to post one more time early next week, try to get one or two more as insurance, since I currently have the minimum needed.
You never know... the Countdown may lead to some new and awesome thing being unveiled and it may bring in some more last minute players.
DCC is not currently big on FG but I would like to see more people running DCC here.
I dont really have any specific suggestions for you... Ive seen your posts on G+. Hang in there!
i know it is close but do you guys have a poster i can put up?
There's some images in the downloads section of fg-con.com
Is there any chance of last minute 5e game additions to try and take advantage of what could be an influx of new users?
Which of these images would you prefer it be based on?Quote:

Go to the FG Con website and have a look at the event list. Link in my signature.Quote:

I am willing to run my D&D 5E event a second (and even a third) time, but it must be in the same time slot on a different week. Maybe there should be a special one day "Try 5E in the 5th month (May)" event.
There are a few spaces left in the Pathfinder (not society) one-shot For rent, lease or Conquest: https://www.fg-con.com/events/advent...e-or-conquest/
A Pathfinder/3.5 Compatible Adventure for 4-5 level 7 PCs by Colin Stricklin.
There comes a point in every adventuring career when a guildhall becomes a necessity. After all, where is the fighter going to hang his trophies? Where is the wizard going to perform his arcane experiments? Fortunately for the PCs, Edgewaith Manor is free for the taking. Unfortunately, it's a bit of a fixer-upper. There's some really bad mold in the bathroom, the furnace is temperamental to say the least, and the whole place is infested with interplanar ants. Such are the joys of home ownership.
Even worse, a group of treacherous real estate agents want the house for themselves, and they'll stop at nothing to get it. Once the PCs gain access to the manor's magical deed, they will have to work quickly to rearrange the rooms, populate them with traps and troops, and prepare to defend the house. In this adventure, the party has the rare opportunity to build a dungeon for the GM!
This adventure has received rave reviews and was selected as one of the top 10 RPG products of 2014 by top Paizo reviewer ENDZEITGEIST, who said "A superb, genuinely funny, but still challenging module - Mind Blowing!"
A Pathfinder adventure of house hunting, or being hunted by a house... Familiarity with playing Pathfinder preferred.
Pregen PCs will be provided.

Great news. Any chance on an incentive to get players to buy the GM license in the week after FG Con?Quote:

The download came through once again as 3.0.12, this is the live version of 3.0.12 not test. I tried to take out my licence key and get the free version, still coming through as 3.0.12.
How do I get it back to 3.0.11 as the Guidelines say? I don't see any option to go back to 3.0.11, I've tried several times now.
Ha JH79!
About 24 hours after our discussion the 3.0.12 version went live!
And then we had about 3 ore updates since then.
The guidelines are - run the current LIVE version.
You are compliant my friend :)
Oh and I really appreciate the effort!

I'd like to wish everybody lots of fun for FG Con!
Sorry if my post is errant. I am a GM for this weekends FG Con (x3). How can I organise my own TS Channel on the FG Con TS3 server? I was just going to steal Damned's :P
EDIT** SORTED :)
Ross.
hope everyone's games are filled - good luck!
Is there a way to just get an audio feed so I can listen in to some of the rooms at work?
Just check with the GM first - if theyre ok just mute yourself and enjoy the action.
I know this is last minute, but I registered another 5e game for Saturday, 4/18. I can run the Caves of Chaos portion of Keep on the Borderlands that I have converted from 1e to 5e. I already have a channel setup on the FG teamspeak. I already have an ultimate license. I can have this campaign setup quickly with 6 pregen characters to choose from.
