time stamp gets me, too. Wife and I are about to leave the craft room to walk to the Ball & Biscuit. If you catch me, you're welcome to join. I'm wearing a black tshirt with the Yawning Portal design on front. Black backpack with a harper pin, not the official one. Wife is in green shirt with teal blue trimmed backpack.

I'll be at the gathering tonight, but I'll be a half an hour or so late. I hope that's alright.

Sorry I missed you, Delwa. Had to head back to the hotel in Greenwood for a stop. Like I said, I'll be late, but I'll be there. So long as you all are there for at least an hour, anyway. That's only because of traffic and the stop. Hope to see and meet you all soon!

Since WotC doesn't even have a presence here (RPGA has been farmed out and the aren't in the exhibit hall), I don't expect any announcements except from off the record sources.

I actually DO know everything. I just have a very poor index of my knowledge.

WotC has no presence at one of the largest (if not largest) tabletop gaming conventions on Earth...?! One that D&D more or less birthed? That's...I'd laugh if that wasn't remarkably sad.

I stopped by Mike Schley's artist booth today. I did hear him tell another customer that he's working on another Sword Coast Map for the upcoming Adventurer's Guide, and that the plan is, if all goes well, for future products to also include other regional maps that will cover the rest of the continent. The impression I got was that all the maps will be able to be put together into one huge map. I don't know if that means future adventurer's guides, or adventures, or what, and I didn't ask. I figured he'd said as much as he could.

Sounds like its back to 1st edition then where I had 8-10 maps that would cover my living room floor to show all of Faerun

Thats a good thing, then.

I need to step up my game so he can have accurate maps to base his off of.

No Ed and no D&D booth (I am assuming WotC is there in the form of MtG?) - I guess I don't feel as bad about not making it this year. Maybe next year... after I have a few publishing credits under my belt.

Have fun, everybody. I'd love to know what that 'present' was that GK sent everyone at the CK meet-up.

It was awesome to have met a number of you folks in person for once. I honestly had the time of my life, namely on Saturday. I just got home safe and sound a little while ago, so I'm just going to update a few things before I retire to bed.

Likewise! We made it home about an hour ago. We've finally reassured the cats that things are back to normal and are unpacking.
It was a pleasure meeting you all.

Made it back last night, slept in this morning, now feeling cognizant and processing all the events (and the amount of money) that had happened. It was great meeting new faces (and finally meeting Wooly and Joran in person).

I actually DO know everything. I just have a very poor index of my knowledge.

Also made it back safely about an hour ago. I had a wonderful time at GenCon, and getting to meet Ashe, Wooly, Delwa, Galuf and the other fine members here truly was the highlight. Bryn also sends her best to all of you, and very much enjoyed meeting you! Meeting you all was like meeting best friends that I haven't seen for a long time. It was like going home again, and for that I want to thank all of you. Also, a hello again to your wife from us, Delwa! I'm sure she and Bryn had a good time teasing about us while you and I spoke in the Exhibit Hall!

Maybe next year we could arrange a D&D campaign for some of the members here that might be interested? Also, would it be possible to get lanyards made, or shirts? I'd love to have either or both if possible!

Another huge thank you to Garen for the beautifully crafted Harper pins! I just know he found someone to cast a worldwalk spell and bring them to us straight from the Realms themselves! ;-)

I may be interested in a t-shirt or lanyard...

If there is enough interest, I could do some pricing for one or both.

I'm sure they did. I'll be sure and tell her hello!
The game sounds like potential fun. I'd be scared to death if I were on the DM side of the screen, though. I'm not nearly the lore monkey as some of you are.

we already have lanyards, actually. I simply forgot them in the hotel room, and was not willing to walk all the way back to the Westin mid-seminar to get them.

I certainly understand that, to be honest.

Is there any way we could possibly get them still? I'd be happy to send you the money for shipping if so.

I would be interested in a lanyard.

So... CS2 is Sacred Sisters of the Crying God, George Krashos's delightful gift for the GenCon Candlekeep Seminar in 2015.

I've got CS3 (Lalya Maurshanta 2016), CS4 (Yahdi al-Alam 2017) and CS5 (Tyrants in Scarlet 2018).

I can't find anything marked CS1, presumably for 2014.

Was that the year George's gift was The High History of Impiltur and it just wasn't marked CS1 on the electronic document hosted here at Candlekeep?

Or is there another lore gem out there I haven't found?

Yes, technically the High History of Impiltur was "CS1".
