While i'm new and certainly not a "regular" (yet), those are damn cool. I'm of the opinion that something like this should be annual with PAX. It'll certainly help the forumites recognize another forumite and that's definitely a bonus in large, con-type situations.
Well, what kind of distribution help do you need? I'll buck up for it if you like. I can also do pass outs on the train or at the Sheraton if that helps.

I'm not going on the train trip as I'm flying in from London Heathrow to SEA on Thursday afternoon. I think there are only two points where I can get the badges to people. These are:
1) I pass some to VThornheart before the Pre-PAX dinner and he can pass them out there.
2) People can ask me or VT for one during the expo itself.
I think that's probably the best way to go. I won't be making that many I'm afraid so there will be an element of exclucivity to them. You can't buy them or pick them up from a booth. It'll be me or VT handing them out, so long as we have them. Note that this also applies to the Paxonieer's badge.
Also note that I will not be wearing one as I'm required to wear the Allgames Radio Staff badge. If anything that will be a marker for you to spot me :P
I'll be at the dinner Tr0tsky, if you want someone to hand some out to BYOC peoples.
Greatly appreciated by the BYOC peoples!

Aye, having more people to hand it out could be helpful, just in case... I'd be worried that I wouldn't run into everyone. I hope that I will... but I get this feeling as it gets closer that there's going to be so many people there that I won't run into everyone from the PAX crowd. But I do hope I run into everyone Either way, having Snickers help might up the odds of giving it to everyone who wanted one

If help is needed I volunteer as I will be buttoning and trying to mingle with forum people to the nth degree cuz you all suck ass and by suck ass I mean totally rock.
Do one for me I'll be at the dinner too, and with my name so nicely sat in th middle there I can't not get one
This is true but you already have in your possession a Paxioneer Badge and hence do not qualify for a PA Forum badge. Sorry old bean.
But my name's on it!
You're a member of the Royal Paxonieer Corps as is LewieP, who is also plastered all over the PA Forum badge. Look I'm doing you a favour here! You don't want to be weighed down by these things!
I have managed to print 90 PA PAX Forum badges and around 30 Paxonieer badges. I'm chatting to VT about initial distribution. Sorry I couldn't make any more but I'm limited by both time and materials.

What is a Paxonieer? If I don't know what it means, I probably am not one, eh?
I believe it is the Foreign Forumers???
All residents of a Commonwealth nation are eligable for a Royal Paxonieer Corps badge. It's very different to the PAX forum badge as it's emblazoned with a Union Jack flag. Here's a pick of it:
The badges for both the PA PAX Forum members and the Royal Paxonieer Corps have now been printed and are bound up ready for travel:
There are 3 bundles of 30 of the PA Forum badges. One for me and VThornheart and the last one goes to Snickers. I'm hoping that tr0tsky will able to hand out the Paxonieer badges as well.
We're days away people, really looking forward to meeting at least some of you.
Oh I almost forgot! One of the badges has a printing defect. I was going to throw it out but have decided to make a little competition around it. The person that has the badge with the printing defect gains the chance of taking something from the 'Bag of Randomness' that I'll have with me at PAX. The bag has a assortment of stuff. Some of it cool, some of it quite pointless and some of it is truely amazing, oh yes.
In order to claim the prize you simply have to present the badge to me that has the defect on it. I will know it when I see it, so no defacing your badges please!
((And also, what are the odds that I can have a Forumer badge reserved for me in return for a rare limited edition misprint 'Zephyril' button at the Pre PAX dinner since I won't be there til like 7:15? )).

I think that is the point. Since it is a First-Come-First-Serve basis (And more than likely my chances of getting one are SLIM to none--since my plane doesn't land until 10:30AM on Friday) we all have to think we have a good one until we study it. Plus, the prize is from his bag of randomness...

I really won't be at the PAX dinner as I have explained before. I'm having dinner with my podcast co-hosts you see.
If you bump into VT or Snickers at the dinner then they will have 29 badges a piece to hand out. I know which batch of badges has the defect and I'm not saying if VT or Snickers will get it...

Print run will be formerly initiated tomorrow. I'm not sure how many I plan to do but it will be quite a few I can assure you.

It will stay as random as I can make it!
Ask me for a badge and I'll give you one
And what was it?
I never saw kropotkin though.
wtf...
