    I'm about to go find some dinner up on Broadway and then some Molly Moon ice cream before turning in to rest up for the mayhem that is day 1.

    You got it to display, but it appears to no longer be a thing that is happening. All they are doing is handing out some strange blue shirts to a bunch of strange people with black badges...

    Also, after the blue shirt frenzy died down, I asked and apparently this is a thing that may be happening at various times during the show.

    Spent an evening talking with Jeff Kalles and Adam from Ubisoft in the Elephant and Castle. Very chill evening, even with the Seahawks losing at a baseball stadium.

    So you tracked him down finally after you went to the wrong pub? :P

    Yea Pinfobooth will only have stuff on display when it is chill. We did set up the "Take a Pinny, Leave a Pinny" board for it though, and Kristin has her awesome blanket. The afternoons when it is quieter will be your best bet for pins at Pinfobooth. But even if you don't see them out, feel free to ask, they are never far.

    I won't be there today due to work (a couple of my co-workers got it off before I had a chance to request it AND THEY AREN'T EVEN GOING TO PAX!!!), but will be there in full force on Saturday and Sunday.

    I seriously have never been this excited for PAX.

    8:40 am. First pins sold by merch. They are now in the wild.

    Just got through The Order, pin is not a give all the time, shirt everytime. Pin is random if the guy likes your moustache drawing, he said they had 300...not sure on accuracy, but he was the guy giving them out.

    So day one was my pin day where I wanted to grab as many as possible and relax a bit the rest of pax... Managed 90% including the LE ten year, iron horde and a bunch of staff pins I didn't expect to get

    Good day so far

    Still need ETC and garruk (ugh, lines)

    When I showed up at the info both at around 9pm or so, I saw six Elspeth and five Garruk pins. If you need those, that is a place to try; once the crowds die down, of course.

  • KhraulKhraul Registered User regular
    New garruk?

    Order 1066 is the hard get for the con. Huge pain in the butt. The Next Level is a close second... Annoying that you need to spend so much time doing 7 demos.

    Here's my Day 1 haul:

    I included all of the older sets because i got them autographed by Mike and Jerry during their signing session today. I still have a lot of work to make sure i get enough for my trading partners, but at this rate, it should be no problem.

    Ugh, what? They didn't even look at my drawing. No "golden shirt" for me.

    Easy if you have time to burn. WotC was 1 hour and 1/2 hour for 2 trips through the line, Iron Horde (WoW demo) was around an hour, ETC (HotS) was a little over 2 hours.

    Your mileage may vary.

    "I know a guy."

    Also, if you go play D&D in the Motif hotel, 4th floor, you can score one.

    Friday morning I was able to head upstairs to 6th floor around 9:40, and there was no line at all. Hammered out We Love Fine and 2 free pins (Moonrise and Age of Empires) in about 1/2 hour.

    Has anyone seen a 2014 year stamped Pinny Arcade logo Staff pin? At East 2014 I got a staff pin from line staff, and it was stamped 2013. My brain squirrel wants a 2014 one... (and if anyone has one and wants to trade, PM me)

    No, you still had to wait until 10 to go into the expo room proper. There's just no line to wait in.
