Cool beans! Will do.

I’m bringing a pile of character sheets and worksheets for general use in case Dresden pick up games break out and spread like wildfire. Players, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to bring copies of the sheets from the back of YS and available from the downloads section here. Enough for yourself is Good (+3), enough for a game is Fantastic (+6). Also, Fudge dice would be faboo. I’m sure I’m not the only n00b who has never seen a proper set. I’ve made a silver set with pentacles instead of zeros for the occasion, but a game should have more.

@Morgan, find me at the booth on Thursday and remind me of this idea, and we’ll see what we can make happen.

Oh yeah, forgot why I wanted to post. Hey, Fred! Do you think you could have a sign up sheet or something at your booth to help interested parties work out when and where to meet at the con for DFRPG open gaming? I’ve never been to a con this big before, so maybe there already is something like that in place in the open gaming areas. It couldn’t hurt.

No worries, Sir Rogue. I’m trying to get some people together at Origins on Saturday night to start a campaign that will move online to the Dresden Files forums at RPG Geek after the con. I’m really looking forward to trying out the character and city creation rules, something I’m thinking there wouldn’t be a lot of time for in a ticketed game. Here’s the discussion thread http://rpg.geekdo.com/article/5135558#5135558

There is so much buzz around this game, I don’t think you and your friends have to worry about not getting a chance to play at Origins.

@SirRogue, yeah, it looks like there’s been really high demand. Unfortunately that’s as much as we can make happen with our volunteer GM squad — we’re even looking at the possibility of one or two of them having to cancel due to some unforeseen financial difficulties in getting to the convention.

That said, do come by our booth in the dealers’ hall, we may be able to find an opportunity to give you a 15-minute demo at least.

Blargh! All the DFRPG events for Origins sold out on the first day! Are there plans to add any more, or will it be possible for walk-ins to hope in to a game if someone no-shows? I’m really excited to play, but need to sell my friends on it; playing a session at Origins together was my best bet on that front!

@Slife, page 280. At the top.

Hey, I’m a little confused about something from the game. Page 279 in Your Story says
“If you have a focus item that can only do one thing thing—you get a single free “slot upgrade” (as described below) to add an extra +1 bonus.”

I can’t find the “described below”.

@Clark
I’ll keep that in mind. I’ll still probably look stuff over as that’s what I tend to do. We’re already signed up for Neutral Grounds for both myself and my wife. Some people that already had the registration page open were able to get registered around 12:45 regardless of them taking it down and the problems that occurred. I just happened to be two of them thanks to having two browsers open, logged in, and on the registration page. Worked like a charm.

@Bryan, if you sign up for Neutral Grounds, don’t worry too much – stone cold novices are welcome at my table.
