I gave myself a drunkenness of 1 basically because more than one glass of alcohol could kill me. :P ...come to think of it I should have put alcohol down as my elemental weakness rather than germs...or maybe sugar.

Decius: Doctor Whhhhooooooo!! A) I made one of those scarves in 1/3 human scale for a David Tennant doll. Than in 1/4 for a commission for another doll owner. Look for me during con.. At some point I'll be wearing a chibi Doctor Whos skirt with a Cybermen ruffle around the bottom. Want that card badly.

wow, rdr - your cards look awesome. the drawing of you is great - did you do it yourself?
also, my cards came today and i'm super happy with them, but after looking at your cards i realize i should have put my email address on. dur!
Thanks!
The illustration of me was drawn by the awesome lady who is doing all of them for the PAX Pokemon League. I don't know her forum name here but she did such an amazing job on everyone's picture.
Ya, the email address thing hit me at the last minute when I realized I could just give my card out to people I strike up a conversation with and use it as a business card of sorts.
I always understood it as lower the number lower your tolerance.
i took the drunkenness level to mean how drunk i expect to get at pax. mine is a 19, and is surpassed only by my awesomeness (20, as will be demonstrated when i head straight from the hotel bar to some rock band freeplay).
Here is my information , if someone could help me out that would be greatly appreciated. This is my first year at PAX, I'm going with my brother (benswimming) and a few friends who have been there last year, and this is something I am deifnitely interested in. If someone is able to help if you could please send me a PM and I'll get you the 2 pictures. Thanks alot for the help, I can't wait to attend my first PAX!

The promocode "PAXEAST11" also gave a $10 discount. When I called them about using both that and their branding discount, they said they could only use one or the other and would use the promocode by default since it's less intrusive for the same value.

/shrug. I used both and it cost me $28 - my friend just used the PAXEAST11 code and it cost him $38. Might've been for some other reason but is seems to me like they used both discounts on mine.
I should get my cards Tuesday. I think making the stats clearer would be helpful for next year. Of course, my neurotic behavior pushing me to put the badges on the right can't be helped.
I was wondering if each year would be a different series.

Man, I must have gotten the rule stickler handling my order, haha.
I think something to do for each year is have the year on the front where the PAX logo is and also change the color of the border. Would help differentiate between PAXes. Just something to think about.
edit: Also, great idea with the email and your pokemon team. I was thinking right before I opened this thread that that is something I would like to do next year.

Same thing happened with mine. Got charged $28 instead of $38 and I felt like the prettiest girl at the ball.:)
You should be able to, but you might want to order express shipping if you're concerned about getting them on time. I received mine 4 days after ordering them, but your results may vary.
I am so pumped to get my cards tomorrow. I wish I could just go to UPS or wherever and pick them up. From what tracking says, they are in Philly. Bastards!
Mine were supposed to have been delivered Friday but some nitwit at UPS put them on the wrong truck so now I have to wait until Tuesday (tomorrow is a holiday in Massachusetts).

Some people are like Slinkies. They have no practical use whatsoever,
but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.

I spoke to my rep at jakprints and as long as you order by Friday, February 25 you will receive your cards before PAX. The biggest exception would be if you are traveling a week before.

I think its a holiday cross-country. ;-)
in slamonella's defense, i also got confused recently and thought it was patriots day, which is only a holiday in massachusetts, maine, and apparently wisconsin.
Got the email from Jakprints saying my cards were processed. $38 w/shipping.
When I ordered I told them that if the discount code couldn't be applied with their advert then not to put the advert on there.
I only got $10 credit for the code so I guess you can't use the code/advert together. Kinda lame. I told them in my order that I am going to be passing these cards out to people so its good advertising but they still didn't apply it.
i think they're using some crazy magicks over there at jakprints - i finally uploaded my cards and the hubby's after midnight on the 17th (I told myself this was still technically before the 18th - so I didn't completely procrastinate!). I just got an email saying they're scheduled to ship today and will arrive this Wednesday. I didn't do expedited anything, and I picked FedEx 2nd day as my shipping - my total was $38 including shipping and using the PA discount code for each set of cards.
so yeah - i imagine if you're continental US, there's definitely still plenty of time to order! And I've got time in the evenings to help anyone out with the photoshoppin', iffin ya need it
It's not a holiday to UPS, who attempted delivery today at my closed office.

Weird. Must've gotten the same stickler as BoomShake processing your order :P Or maybe if you don't call attention to it and opt for both they throw it through without realizing they're giving you double discounts XD

Worth saving $10 but that's just me.
also, next year i will TOTALLY be letting jakprints on there - they did a great job w/ the placement, it's super subtle.

There's a 7-10 day turnaround. So depends on when you leave for PAX.
You can order express shipping and rush delivery as well.
Alright, I'll be ordering mine and my brother's shortly.
EDIT: Submitted both orders. I'll post later when they arrive.
