jonxp, that was funny...wish I had been there! Maybe next year the Q&A won't be at the same time as the Girls Meetup, so Covet and I can come with you!
This is the first year since Buttoneering started that I had buttons left over
But then again this is attributed to duties preventing me from attending the two morning meetups and also being stuffed behind a huge League of Legends line. I gave the button radar a shot but no one really showed up.
Oh wells, it just means I have a bonus button for next year!

This was the first year since I started doing Buttoneering that I gave away any appreciable number. Got rid of all of them and then some from last year. Good times. I guess I'll make a large batch again next year.
Hey All! My very first Buttoneering, and my very first post on the PA Boards! Awesome meeting everyone - so many great stories behind your buttons. I agree that 150 seemed to be the magic number. Gave a away a few to random people for giggles and was all out come a couple hours in to Monday on four days worth of trading.
So glad that last year I finally learned what you all were hooting and hollering about. 10 years of random button collecting and displaying turned into very heavy vest, and in a single PAX managed another 200. Seems the more you have, the more are proffered?
BTW - I didn't get two faces, and didn't get the Cherry. Bummed...

As far as I know, we've been only doing the Buttoneering (for Prime specifically) for six years. But! Either way, that is still a lot of button-trading.
I was worried that I lost my Game of Thrones one--only to find it in another bag--but I was happy to get all six faces and the native fruits as well. But I was quite pleased with what I got this year.
Thank you folks! Hopefully it will be equally awesome or more next year!
