Oh yeah The Purple Pie Man say the ovens will be working over time to meet the demands of the PAX Community.

I ♥ making awesome crafts! I ♥ my Cookie Brigaders!
If you haven't already, be sure to go to the "Events" section of our website and register for the PAX East 2011 Event itself! This will help us get a better headcount of who's actually going to East instead of just being in the Cookie Brigade forum for Prime (or who thought they might be able to go to East but actually can't make it).
As a vegetarian, this both disgusts and intrigues me.
Speaking of which, how are us vegetarians to know which cookies are safe and which aren't? Though I'd like to think the days of using animal shortening in cookies is long gone.
Wow Brigaders! Bacon must be the "in" thing this year, as I planed on also adding bacon to my contribution. The French Toast mini cupcake, maple whipped frosting topped with a flag of tasty candied bacon. I'm Also baking a Monumental batch of Mario's Marvelously Mocha Mischievous Mustache Macaroons....on a stick.Mmmm ...mouth full Much? Myself and a hand full of enslaved brainwashed..uh i mean recruited at own will baker buddies will be storming up a bake. or baking up a storm all of Saturday and Sunday. mustache cookies will be vegetarian. cupcakes will not. also, enjoy the cookies, but please don't eat/harass people with the stick.

But here is where it gets interesting, DJ! I used...... BACOS!! Specifically for this reason! Per Betty Crocker, there are currently no animal fats used in Bacos. They're soy based! While the cookies aren't Vegan (butter) they are dead animal free!

I put full ingredients on the space invader candy. Its just sugar (granular and powdered), corn syrup, citric acid, and flavoring (flavor oils so they are vegetarian).
So whether or not you can eat it is dependent upon whether or not you consider cane sugar vegetarian or not.
As of writing this I've got 230 bags of candy and hopefully will get one more batch knocked out this week. *crosses fingers*
But here is where it gets interesting, DJ! I used...... BACOS!!
:shock:
You're selling me one of those cookies now. Wait... Did I just agree to a bacon cookie? O_o
I'm still trying to come up with an ingenious way for all of you cookie brigadiers to quickly identify that my belly wants some lovin'.
P.S. You are correct about Bac-Os. Copyrighted, brand name Bac-Os are, indeed, vegetarian friendly. It's always puzzled the mind.
Just WAIT until you see the labels I made. "Vegetarian Bacos-Choco Chippers" There's a picture of bacon on it. Honestly? I just really, really, REALLY wanted to be able to say that out loud, "Vegetarian, bacon flavoured, chocolate chip cookies." Bacon (and flavoured as like) is an undervalued sweet ingredient.

If I make cookies day of (I'm not signed up for the Cookie Brigade or anything), would I be able to find someone to give them to to then distribute them to the hungry hungry PAXers?
Ginger cookies, lemon poppyseed scones, or chocolate chip scones...

So, I was catching up on Loading Ready Run videos (you know...the guys who do Desert Bus) and at the end of the most recent one, I saw someone I recognized, and a banner I helped "protect" at the omegathon of PAX Prime last year.
In other words, at the end of this very humorous video, the guys from loading ready run pimped the cookie brigade!!!

Hi! I don't know where else to go with this...
I tried to sign up for the cookie-brigade.com website last week. I made the mistake of trying to create an account (kimbellina) before having the Penny Arcade forums account created. Now I still can't get to any of the pages on the cookie brigade website. There's a big red banner that says "... If everything checks out, you\'ll be in within the next 48 hours..." Help, someone, please? :?
I did cookie brigade at PAX East last year, and I plan to join in again.
I'll be making the following cookies (sorry, nothing special):
chocolate chip cookies
M&M cookies
sugar cookies with assorted types of sprinkles
sugar cookies that are particularly phallic, reserved primarily for the more generous, polite, and/or funny donors
Kimbellina: I sent you a PM on the 27th in regards to the account, but I haven't heard back from you yet. Please reply to the message as soon as you can so I can get you processed! No need to create multiple accounts: the problem isn't the account creation, it's that I never heard back from the PM I sent you. Check your inbox when you get the chance!
JimmyJim: It looks like you replied to my PM this morning/late last night: I'm on it, I just can't check during the day (hence the delay!)
And this brings up a good point for everyone: anyone looking to be in the Brigade, please respond to the PMs I've sent you! There's ~15 people currently on the list who have signed up and not replied to me! I will not let you in if you do not reply to the PM I sent, due to the previously stated concerns that we have to account for with open signup.
Also, if you want to be in the Brigade, decide now: the cutoff for Brigadier signups for East is going to be Wednesday 3/9/2010 (which means both signing up and responding to my PM message in time!), so that we can actually know who to expect to be at PAX East. If you do not complete signup by this time, you'll unfortunately have to wait until Prime to join the Brigade! So don't delay!
My fiancee makes some awesome macaroons. If I can get her to give me the recipe, and made them, and brought them to PAX, how logistically involved is it to be a distributor? I guess what I'm saying is, I'm interested in theory, as long as it doesn't overly interfere with actually enjoying PAX.
How do I spot a "True" Cookie Brigade helper at the PAX East? Thank you.
We'll have awesome Cookie Brigade patches, patches on flags, and I think we'll have buttons and our very own Cookie Brigade cards. (VT, we do have PAX trading cards, right? Or am I making that up?)
Dear diary, the final day of the bakening is upon me. I was unsure if I would be able to undertake this ordeal and still fear for my sanity. The cookies, oh the cookies. They speak to me in my sleep, clamoring for me to produce more minions for their inevitable takeover. I resist as best I can, claiming to require sleep and food, but they are insistant. I am haunted by the ghosts of all of those broken eggs. Well, my friends, I may soon be joining you in the compost heap. I fear the cookies will decide that I am no longer of any use once the bakening has ended. Oh no, they have found my hiding place and are forcing me to return to the kitchen. Until later, dear diary.

Brigadiers, please head to the PAX 2011 East forum on the Cookie Brigade website, and check out the "IMPORTANT – OFFICIAL CONTACTS AND MEETING LISTS" Thread! You will want to print the lists contained therein, they will give you all the info you will need in order to successfully pick up and drop off cookies once we're at PAX itself!

Hittin' up the cookie brigade is perhaps one of the things I am most excited about. My mouth is watering all over the place just thinking about all these delicious cookies. I want to try one of each! Hopefully I can find some of you good people. Last year I didn't see any cookie brigadiers!
Going to make sure I have lots of single bills available.
You all should attach bells to your belts or play music from speakers or something, so people will know you're around! Like the ice cream man! Except the music could be video game music.
I am going to buy SO MANY COOKIES.

If they're anything like the bacon chocolate chip cookies I've had before, be on the lookout for some amazing stuff.
If you haven't already, be sure to go to the "Events" section of our website and register for the PAX East 2011 Event itself! This will help us get a better headcount of who's actually going to East instead of just being in the Cookie Brigade forum for Prime (or who thought they might be able to go to East but actually can't make it).

Hey, Manchvegas guy... Yeah, you...
Sweet! This is what I got.
Nice! I love those Betty Crocker bagged cookies. For home, I always make the oatmeal chocolate chip, and stir in dried cranberries. SOOOO good!
