Countdown to Origins 2017Re: Countdown to Origins 2017Just got the word. Event Registration begins Wednesday, May 3rd, @ 1pm
Re: Countdown to Origins 2017Playtest still Thursday night???
Re: Countdown to Origins 2017Yup!
Re: Countdown to Origins 2017Have they given us the Club Code yet?
Re: Countdown to Origins 2017Usually comes about a month before Origins
Re: Countdown to Origins 2017Dam, I'll be 16 hours out of kilter for registration.
Re: Countdown to Origins 2017I could loan you a kilt if it helps.
Re: Countdown to Origins 2017Just a reminder that Event Reg 8 days away.
Re: Countdown to Origins 2017UPDATE: Event grid now has actual numbers for the events. I've taken the liberty of putting in the numbers for you, added Megaparanoia just in case, and updated the GMs.
Re: Countdown to Origins 2017UPDATE on the UPDATE: I didn't notice this initially but there are also Room/Table assignments on the new grid. So we have location! Where? Why Champagne of course! I'll update all the events with their Table numbers (oh and YES the table numbers are low enough that the tables probably DO actually exist.)

Re: Countdown to Origins 2017
Re: Countdown to Origins 2017It turns out I have a little bit of free time this Origins. I could probably work in 2 games (in addition to my usual time to wander the dealers' hall, so no need to worry about me skipping that)! So I'm curious my friends, what's new that I should be looking at?
Re: Countdown to Origins 2017Registration's tomorrow...GoSM code out yet?

Re: Countdown to Origins 2017Nope no GoSM code, but we DID get the GMs badge codes...
Re: Countdown to Origins 2017So, Origins hits a new low for registration.
Several of us have been unable to get in and select events. So, Mark, be prepared for a bunch of us to show up with generics.
Re: Countdown to Origins 2017
And I was just swinging by to see if anyone had managed to get through yet. I guess that's my answer.
Re: Countdown to Origins 2017Well, just so you all know, we will NOT be overstocking tables anymore. We might (might) add a player beyond listed numbers but that is it.
Players are not getting their share of spotlight, it's hard on us to speak loudly to reach all the players, other GMs in the room have problems with it, etc. Now, on the plus side, if nobody else is getting in the system you are not getting beat out. And this is far from the worst registration problem since '96. There was the year it erased everyone's events and spat out generics instead (in the same year you could not buy generics with a credit card if you had already done so). There is the year nothing went live until two weeks in advance. There is the year all the listed times were the same so nobody knew when to play. A later start and no code is just a typical thing. I don't mind growing old... but I hate growing up.
Re: Countdown to Origins 2017Got the games for both me & my Mike at least. Though, weirdly enough while my itinerary has everything listed correctly, the payment menu has me double-booked for Episode 14?

Re: Countdown to Origins 2017I can't get past "access my badge".
Re: Countdown to Origins 2017I grabbed two games, stuck at payment (but don't really care if I get dumped out of the system, since I can always show up with generics).
Re: Countdown to Origins 2017So, I sent an email to the registration mgr, finally got in and grabbed a POA 1-5 slot, it wouldn't take payments on two different credit cards, and now I get an email that they took the whole system down until 1PM Friday.
Wonderful. All sessions selected but not yet paid for will be kept until that time... ps: I can post Wendy Quick's entire email here, if it's important.
