    Was talked about in the community thread awhile back. It isn't going out until after East (at the earliest). Between East and Prime is the estimate. You will surely get an email asking for an address. So, until that email happens, just sit tight.

    It wouldn't surprise me if they do it through the store, where you can only buy it with a unique code (similar to the KI Pins).

    that would make sense they did say there would have some stuff for members only

    The comic we were attempting to make about Project Spark never materialized, and instead, this comic managed to peck its way out the of the shell. Kiko asked me if we had a podcast of this writing process, presumably because it would have been “interesting,” but we didn’t. And when I think about it, there is no causal chain that results in the strip. The strip is like something we found half-submerged in sand, complete and entire.

    With Titanfall hitting on the 11th, I’m trying to crush a backlog that wants instead to grow.

    I got it into my head that I wanted to wrap up Ironclad Tactics finally after a brutal stall, connected with the game’s difficulty and my own sloth and ineptitude. My subconscious had been hard at work though, and upon my return I was able to crack it - but they just dropped a rad campaign DLC for it, expanding the load somewhat beyond my original spec. The new Walking Dead episode is out, downloaded but with the seal still on, not even installed.

    I have a sneaking suspicion, though, that the time up to the 11th is going to be taken up with Shadowrun: Dragonfall.

    I liked the original Shadowrun campaign, I like Shadowrun basically. I’m from Seattle, you know? But I encountered various levels of paralysis connected with the inability to save when you wanted, and also to make different characters to accomplish increasingly granular, one-off objectives when I should have just committed myself to playing it twice. Dragonfall (which I got from backing it, anyhow) was a chance to just go with it - to go again, for the first time as they say. One of my favorite CRPG stories of all time, Shadows of Undrentide, was itself an expansion. You can feel stable development tools, even as a player: both of these are ambitious, second cracks at it that are enabled by experience. They’re Journeyman projects.

    It’s nice to have Club PA rolling again; early access to things is essentially the touchstone, but it’s the early strips specifically that I think are the most interesting bit. For the Club PA stalwart, Penny Arcade now updates on Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday - probably the biggest material change since the site’s inception. We are trying to figure out other ways to spoil that cadre, but in the meantime we’re collecting addresses so we know where to send the exclusivo Pinny Arcade pins for the $30+ crowd. Thanks for taking us up on it, it’s nice to know you are out there.

    (CW)TB out.
    So, has anyone been contacted about their Club PA pin? The newspost implies they're getting addresses, but I haven't seen or heard anything about it.

    I imagine that given they didn't get everything for the launch sorted in time, this will be a largely manual process a la Killer Instinct Pin Challenges. I'm sure people will start posting when they have been contacted, so if you don't hear anything a week or so after the first post about it that is the time to be concerned. For now, patience is key. Of course, we are also waiting on PAX East so there is that.

    Hey all! The address collection hasn't begun quite yet, but we haven't forgotten about it - just getting everything set up so it goes smoothly. Make sure your Club PA email address stays up to date (and doesn't filter to spam or something) and you'll hear from us there.

    Excited to get it! My favourite pins are the ones that mark significant moments in Penny Arcade history (i.e. 15th anniversary, 10 years of PAX).

    Well from what I gathered, anyone who subscribes for a full year will get 2 of the same Pin, since the subscription runs in 6 month intervals. One to keep, one to trade.

    I'm hoping that the next ClubPA meet-up has wearing the Pin as a requirement to get in, secret society style. Password is Mork Krahollow.

  • AyefkayAyefkay Queensland, AustraliaRegistered User regular
    I'm thinking about getting two per year, one into my collection folder, the other into a shadow box that will eventually have every year's pin,

    That kind of defeats the purpose of the $10 crew :wink:

    Secret pin crew within the regular crew sounds fine by me though!

    Bah, I forgot about them. Maybe the Pin just eliminates the need for the Secret Handshake.

    so odd question...but if I sign up now (or this weekend or whatever) will I still be eligible to get in on this pin since the form hasn't gone out yet? Been meaning to join up since it went live and it's just slipped my mind :/ Thanks in advanced

    No idea, but the six month cycle began around February. If they are doing it in set periods, you likely have a month or two. I'll add it to the FAQ I'm sending over soon.

  • miker525miker525 New YorkRegistered User regular
    Thanks @PedroAsani . I plan on subscribing tonight or tomorrow morning (depending on when I get home) so I can let you know if I get the form whenever it gets out if that helps. A more official word would be great though

    As long as you subscribed to the $30 tier, you'll be fine.

  • zerzhulzerzhul Registered User, Moderator mod
    When is the cutoff date for this first ClubPA pin then? I hadn't seen it posted anywhere (since you said that the person will be fine). I know that the same pin will go out a second time later this year, but I assume Suprshin was talking about this first wave.
