Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
[East] PAX East 2012 Forum badges
Posts
Neither. They're heavy paper but not quite card stock. Kropotkin supplies a soft plastic badge holder that they slip into and have a handy dandy hole for connecting to a lanyard.

Hello Satan! | Steam | Tumblr
What will happen is this: by posting in this thread, your name will be on the back of the badge itself. Congrats!
At PAX, to pick it up, you need to go to either a Pre-PAX event like the MMT or PPD or PokeCrawl OR you will need to go to the pre-determined pick up spot (likely the BYOC check in desk) and say you are here to pick up your forum badge. The Enforcer will then ask you a question pertaining to the forums, and a correct answer will earn you the badge.
Don't think you know anything about the forums? Don't worry, the questions will actually be posted to this thread before PAX, so you will know what will be asked and what the answers are. Call it an extra perk for being awesome.

Thanks kropotkin!
Edit:
I ask because I got my Halofest badge signed by Steve Downs and Jennifer Hale and it will be coming with me to every Pax.

No. The pre-pax event coordinators will be handing them out to all their attendees that want one (while supplies last). I believe that Kropotkin usually supplies the number that have signed up for an event plus a little buffer. Any extras go to the main pickup spot at BYOC.

Dumb newb question, where did you get the plastic sleeve at? Is that how it came?

Attendee: ♥ Prime '12, '13 ..♥ East '12
sleeve was included with forum badge. i also kept a trading card tucked into the back side of it so other trading card folks could see i was holding.

Got it! I'm pretty excited for the this. The design looks awesome! I will be at PPD so I'll look out for the badge there and at BYOC desk.

Seeing event-driven forums like this really ramping up... makes me realize that we're getting close to PAX. And that makes me happy.
The only time the Forum Badges become an issue is when your official PAX Pass needs to be checked. There is a tendency for it to flip over, obscuring your official pass. Just be wary of this is all I can say.
I don't think flipping will be a big issue, my halofest and pax badges never seemed to be facing the right way all weekend anyways. ^.^

MMT, pre pax dinner, and the pokecrawl.
the first two you'll meet new people and the last you'll make new best friends, at least for the night.
Not to add to your design burdens, but what do you think of giving the CLASSIFIED even more of a rubber-stamp look by adding a border, and maybe open it up at the same time with an outline or stencil font and paler red?

Not until 1 month before PAX East 2012 do the names get compiled, so no it doesn't.
