    Is there a promo code for PureButtons? I recall someone saying they usually give PAX-goers a discount.

    Another Enforcer joining the madness! Last year I played, but I don't think I posted here. If I get my act together I should have a flag or similar that says "I'm a Buttoneer! Are you?" so I don't have to accost every person I see with 5 or more buttons on their person. That was awkward.

    Here is my design:

    Just finished the buttons and ordered 50 of each. Never done anything like this before, so I hope they turn out.

    Credit for the first goes to Angel 177

    then one for my twitter handle

    and a bonus button

    So I won't be making the original button I posted. It wasn't really a great concept anyway, and it was just for the Community DVD. PapaPrinny made his own button with name and logo on it, and I will do the same. I'm really terrible at coming up with things like this, but I thought of something and went with it. Pretty much what I did for my '08 button (see my avatar).

    I'm going with the Guild Wars 2, SW:TOR, and BladeRunner references. Because like I said, I'm not good at coming up with things. And I like to make references. So this is my third concept, it may not quite be final but it will be like this.
    Coldbrew_Button_1-3.jpg
    BTW, I don't expect everybody to catch the SW:TOR reference, especially when they see the actual button. It's really not even a reference, just cropped out a small part of the logo.

    Oh Brew, what on earth does Blade Runner have to do with anything?

    Since this is going to be my second PAX Prime and my daughters first, I thought we could get in on the Buttoneer action.

    Here is our design for this year:

    I am so sorry you guys! Obviously, I was not up for the constant updating of this thread. Next year I'll have to pass the torch. In the mean time, I'll attempt to add everyone to the OP.

    In my defense, I did con Beta_Angel into getting some very nice framed cork boards from his wife and a promise of delivery at the second Q&A. XD

    Yes please!! I was actually planning on PMing you on IRC this week. :)

    My sub-plan was to ask the front desk at the Sheraton, which I might still do so that BYOC isn't completely bombed.

    Thanks! Credit where credit is due, though. I just keep pet rats, my friend designed it for me but won't be a buttoneer because she's spending her time with costume. If you see someone dressed as an amazingly adorable companion cube, you'll know why cute is such a natural talent for her. :)

    I'm not a forum regular either, i'm using the buttoneering to help me become one. I'm pretty sure it's more than alright, in fact, in the spirit* of PAX it's encouraged.

    *Spirit of PAX being, "We're all gamers, we're all friends, welcome to meet you, don't be a dick".

    BYOC isnt swamped during PAX, just make it clear to everyone to not drop off buttons until after 1pm on friday (When our mad rush is over with).

    The Sheraton better be fond of us, given that there's PAX space actually inside the Sheraton this year!
