Countdown to Origins 2012Re: Countdown to Origins 2012Dave? Did you go through "Registration" then the big green "Access My Badge"? The drop down menu allows you to go in through "events".
When I tried to login through "login", it didn't work, for my registration was linked through my home PC's URL. Like Charlie, I had two registrations, but the $75 was linked to home. Fortunately, going in through Access My Badge allowed me to put in my home URL and link up with my payment.
Re: Countdown to Origins 2012In precisely three weeks I will be sitting in the Marion Room (Table 2) and noting that we still have just a few minutes before we start the adventure. I'll look over the new people's characters just to be sure, hand out DD and explain a bit about 7th Sea and the world for those unfamiliar with the game. THEN I'll promptly forget to hand out the 'special' cards (because I forget during the first adventure of the con every time). But I will remember the moment I notice that Dave is calling my cellphone. When I pick up, he won't say it but we both know why he's calling. Instead, he'll just ask if there are any books I need him to bring, and let me know when he should be down to the con.
Meanwhile, Laura who simply cannot resist watching the opening moments of the campaign nearly every time it's run, will be sitting nearby with that quirky little smile on her face. She'll be basking in the glow of new players beginning to love this campaign. I recognize it right away, because I'm feeling the same thing. Dear god, that just brought a smile to my face.
Re: Countdown to Origins 2012i totally plan to be there to run Episode 1 at 1 pm on wednesday (barring traffic and last minute hassles)
I understand what Mike was suggesting I look for on the site. The site would let me access my badge, it even showed I have one for a change but it was not allowing me to alter the registration. The text that allowed you to edit your account/registration was not there. Today, on a different and very new computer that I have never used to access the account, I could jump right in and order until my heart was content. And I found every game I wanted was sold out. (except one of the our events) So just to make it official, I am booked in and will be there to run both sessions of episode 1 and 2 as well as the Personal Agenda adventure. (If we have a huge overflow, I am prepping enough material to run 3 two hour sessions in that provided anyone is free to wait and play between 5 and 7 pm) I don't mind growing old... but I hate growing up.
Re: Countdown to Origins 2012And while I did sign up for an event at 7 after the PA, that still leaves enough time to take care of any overflow for people who couldn't get in during the regular times.
Re: Countdown to Origins 2012Somebody is playing at the drydock...
I don't mind growing old... but I hate growing up.
Re: Countdown to Origins 2012Nope, Rotted Capes
Re: Countdown to Origins 2012I have generic tickets and time free then... may need to tag along and beg in.
I'm thinking a character with necromantic powers in a zombie game. or a speedster in a stumbling zombie game. I don't mind growing old... but I hate growing up.
Re: Countdown to Origins 2012It said characters provided and rules taught. So it looks like we just get to pick one. I was thinking of stealing Eric's idea and going for the hillbilly who brings the dead back to life. You know, the Rednecromancer...
Re: Countdown to Origins 2012The best part of that is in a zombie game, the dead are already back so you end up just being a normal guy. (my plan B for that time slot is to drydock and shove Sierra through something worse than a porte hole). And just because it's time somebdy did it.... OOOoooooorrrrriiiiiiiiiiiiiiggggiiiiiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnnnnsssss!!!!
I don't mind growing old... but I hate growing up.
Re: Countdown to Origins 2012
What about trapping her with one of those Mirror Ghosts?
Re: Countdown to Origins 2012
Why am I hearing that in the same cadance (and voice) as Isabella (of Phineas and Ferb fame) saying "Whatcha dooooin?"
Re: Countdown to Origins 2012Does anyone know who from the CV crew is coming this year???
Re: Countdown to Origins 2012I had a confab with Frank a week or so ago and he mentioned the regular names (Him, Kenny, the Wetherholts, Kara and the new Mrs. Beemer) but he was also under the impression that Adam would be running stuff. I was under the impression he'd left for his own campaign based on the CthulhuTech RPG (there are CthulhuTech adventures listed for under the GB7 banner but I don't know if he's involved or not).
Frank also mentioned bringing in a new face (a friend of his), but I can't remember his name. There was supposed to be a meeting with all the GMs which I was invited to, but I've yet to hear when it was planned for.
Re: Countdown to Origins 2012In a mere TWO WEEKS I will already be in my hotel room after having dropped off all my fellow ride sharers (Charlie, Laura, and Eric), gotten my badge, eaten dinner, and re-checked all my stuff to make sure I have everything for the first two events (I know Dave is running the first one but I want to be ready anyway, and becides I'm bringing most of the paperwork).
I'm really looking forward to this!
Re: Countdown to Origins 2012Just a sign of how little folks pay attention to my plans..... I have been asked 3 times today if I am leaving for Columbus tomorrow or friday. I wrote it on every calendar in the place. Now, admittedly, if Origins were to have started this week, I would be most enthused but as I have nothing laundered or packed it would not be as much fun. I also guarantee that in two weeks, when I do leave, somebody will be surprised I have done so.
I don't mind growing old... but I hate growing up.
Re: Countdown to Origins 2012
Wait, you're going to Origins?!?
Re: Countdown to Origins 2012Not only am I going, I signed up under 4 different names. I also logged in here with 3 new accounts. It turns out we actually have no new players, they are all just me. (if any of that were true, it would be the worst plans to get a free badge ever)
I don't mind growing old... but I hate growing up.
Re: Countdown to Origins 2012More stuff unannounced unless you were paying careful attention to their website,
Just thought I'd give you all a heads-up.
Re: Countdown to Origins 2012Update for those of you who haven't gotten tickets, we're nearly 2/3 of the way sold. So you'll know, here's the event list again along with event numbers and the number of ticket left.
Wednesday 1-5pm HoA: Episode 1 (6026) 2 Tickets left 7-11pm HoA: Episode 3 (6082) Sold Out Thursday 9-1pm HoA: Episode 4 (6145) Sold Out 1-5pm HoA: Episode 2 (6208) 4 Tickets left Friday 1-5pm HoA: Personal Agendas (two tables) (6511, 6512) total of 4 Tickets left Saturday 9-1pm HoA: Episode 1 (6709) 1 Ticket left 9-1pm HoA: Episode 3 (6710) 3 Tickets left 1-5pm HoA: Episode 2 (6770) 2 Tickets left 1-5pm HoA: Episode 4 (6771) 4 Tickets left Sunday 10-2pm HoA: Domingo Gigante! Wide open! but get your special invitation during the con for advance placement! EDITED: to reflect Laura's Purchases.
Re: Countdown to Origins 2012Ok, I know its late, but I finally got on line on Origins and registered (had debated on just waiting til I got there), but figured this would be better in the long run, I hope.
I had tried to register earlier when it first came up, but I couldn't remember my info (actually I did, but it was with the old computer, so after what I was reading here from others, I figured it wasn't reconizing my new laptop, so I just re-registered). So anyway, I got 3 spots on the game: Thursday 9-1pm HoA: Episode 4 (6145) 1 Ticket left (not anymore, lol) Friday 1-5pm HoA: Personal Agendas (two tables) (6511, 6512) total of 5 Tickets left (4 tickets left now) I really don't know what I will do for this game. Haven't really got my character fully worked out in what her goal is, other than she is in Altamira looking for old ballads and historic writtings. Saturday 9-1pm HoA: Episode 3 (6710) 4 Tickets left (3 tickets left) So I have plenty of time to check on other games when I get there. Got myself a batch of generics, and I always like to do a painted figure event. Can't wait to see everyone! Think! - Its not Illegal yet.
Re: Countdown to Origins 2012Are you telling me that you didn't play 3 and 4 earlier this year?.
I don't mind growing old... but I hate growing up.
Re: Countdown to Origins 2012
Nope she hasn't played any. Just ran 1 event at TotalCon.
Re: Countdown to Origins 2012I work Total Con, so no, I didn't get to play them. I only ran #1 for Mark, and the first Domingo Gigante! on the Sunday. I saw him running them from my window, but the noise factor at that hotel is horrible, with their dome roof, it echos the noise, creating more noise. Then they moved into another room for a while too so I couldn't watch, so yup, I have to actually catch up with those two games.
Think! - Its not Illegal yet.
Re: Countdown to Origins 2012One week from today we will have finished up our hamburgers and will be back on the road! Yay!
Re: Countdown to Origins 2012You will not finish those burgers. You will want to but fail. If you do, the next few hours on the road will be full of woe.
And in exactly 7 days to the minute, I will still be at work. The unemployed in my area, however, are heading down next tuesday. And since Kara has not been on to do so... OOOOORRRRRRIIIIIIIIIGGGGIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That should be voiced similar to Randy Quaid in Independence Day I don't mind growing old... but I hate growing up.
