Since there are so few PF players, the Gaming Gods may see fit to let in a late application or two with a Round 0 penalty, or simply not gain the benefit of a Good Citizen treasure points.

So, am I correct in assuming that since there were 16/16 applicants in 5e and 5/16 in PF all applicants are entered and round 0 is for points and pole position?

All timely and satisfactory applications automatically passed to Round 0. Those that lacked essential components were excluded.

You are correct that those who are currently being voted on will also participate in Round 1. From there, I can't predict how quickly things will turn bloody.

How about we have you roll it in the questions/mechanics thread and I'll just move the post into the applications thread.

That sound legit?

Whoops, I missed the part about no name on the sheet. My name is basically the first thing I add to any sheet.

Note to everyone: If you voted in the Pathfinder bracket, PLEASE go back and look at the applications again. One application Aurelia Sigurdsdóttir, was omitted from the list. This was an oversight on my part, and is no reflection on the application at all. I am very sorry for the omission

Now there are a full five others you can vote on!

Whelp... that makes 3 of 6 PF applications anonymous.

@Gaijin: I have been meaning to ask something, what's the story behind your avatar poster anyway? I wasn't active last year.

Oh, hah.

Last year ended up getting pretty wild and several "unofficial" awards were handed out to recognize people's participation.

My character was fashioned after Gru from Dispicable me, and he was joined by a small army of Homunculi "minions", and he, and all of the minions, were over optimized with single use spells and buffs. Since each homunculi acts independently, but essentially shares senses and communicates telepathically with its creator, they were able to act like a perfectly coordinated team of 10-20.

Games like this aren't designed to handle the kinds of action economy that this configuration provided, so the GM had to constantly try to find rules precedents to make rulings and attempt to remember dozens of buffs, character placements, and possible outcomes.

On top of that, my character could technically have explored the entire map simultaneously and bypassed a lot of traps and obstacles.

It was... complicated.

As for the banner, I made that to commemorate the event. I'll probably swap it out once Round 1 starts.

Also, it was extremely difficult to RP well due to the number of moving parts and pace of the competition.

Pretty much turned into a Smash & Grab until the very end.

Oh, right... there was also a bag of holding with a few dozen crates of alchemical acid and fire that were dumped out simultaneously to deal an unreasonable about of continuous damage.
