    Kinda worried about this one, especially for multiples for pinpals. Hopefully it's not that bad...

    Just in case, I'm doing the social challenges for people who can't go to PAX.

    That's exactly why I haven't even traded for them yet. After Prime '13 they still had fullish machines. PAX East confirmed Series 1 was still available. I'd rather just wait to plunk down the money.

    Yeh us Aussies (read: me) didnt get that info. I thought they were all gone or in very small quantities. Oh well. If theres a heap of thing, looks like I know what to expect as trade fodder for PAXAus instead of Lookouts, since these are cheaper :)

    Locations are nice but I'm only gonna put up info when its fairly certain how to obtain the pin. Like im 99% sure that to get Dark Garruk from WotC, we just have to go demo Dual of the Planeswalkers at their booth, but I haven't heard from WotC yet (I expect them to announce Friday when they used to do Arcana articles for whatever show they were going to the next week).

    Ugh, the online entry stuff for the Ubisoft pin feels so scummy. "You might get this pin if you spam your social media outlets with something that no one gives a shit about!" - At least it's easy to post/delete/revoke access and it doesn't take away your entries.

    Hopefully whatever they have set up at the booth isn't quite so gross.

    That's not really an answer. Does that mean 1200 total? Does that mean 500 each day?

    But there are also fewer tickets sold for Prime.

    Wizards posted the details for Garruk - http://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/arcana/magic-pax-prime-2014-2014-08-26

    The 2014 PAX Prime Pin features the right side of Garruk's face, which, for those of you who made it to PAX East, will discover is a perfect match for the left side of his face we gave away there. You can get your pin by taking part in the Magic booth experience, or possibly by finding one of our community managers as they roam the hall and tweet about the convention.

    The Supergiant Transistor pin is going to be sold, price TBD.

    It seems like a lot of the pins this year are purchased, not given out for a demo. On the one hand, I like that idea because it saves time in lines and lets me do more stuff. On the other hand, this trip is going to cost me a lot more than originally intended.

    OP updated, leaving WeLoveFine and Klei as the unknowns. Blizzard has put up a post on their WoW page saying to get the Iron Horde pin, we gotta play the Warlords of Draenor beta, and Pat put up a blog post saying the Pipes will be for sale (a shame, I wanted to earn them like you do in the books)

    Of note, The Order pin only has a 25% of dropping. People have had to go through the line and the demo (roughly 90-120 mins total) to get a pin. It all depends on what color T-shirt you pull after the Demo.

    The line for the two Blizzard demos are 1.5-2 hours each and the lines are regularly capped for hours at a time. Very sought after.

    The Don't Starve pin is $10 at their booth.

    The Red pin is $15 at the Transistor booth.

    There are also Bard Rock pins available for $25 at the PVP booth.

    Both of Katie's pins are available to purchase.

    Strip Search pins are also available for trade by all the contestants that have booths set up.


    There are also many many Ben Kachura pins available for trade from Enforcers.

  • FitzchivalryFitzchivalry PAXAUS Cookie Brigade Coordinator Orrstrahleeeeah mate!Registered User regular
    Why is the Ben pin so desired? Ive seen people tweeting about it..I thought Levin would be the one people were after..

  • AyefkayAyefkay Queensland, AustraliaRegistered User regular
    Because when the Series 1 staff pins were first released (PAX Prime last year iirc) pretty much only the corresponding PA member held their own pin. Soon after that, Ben left PA. No ben, no ben pin.

    Levins is different, its been about a year and a few PAX's later, has had time to circulate

    Ugh just stood in line for a demo for Fizzy to be told afterwards that the pin was only for the first place winner (out of eight) per demo. Paramount might be the faster way to go.

    I suck at wikis..but I think if we made a wiki up, and left it open to the group, it would get filled in pretty quickly and accurately.

    Also, my attempt at the quiz on the podcast should be clear and utter proof that I should NOT be allowed any editing skills on the page whatsoever :)
