Thanks to Bill for responding here and echoing Carl's message - the reason I bought 4 more books is because the 10 or so I bought last year at GenCon were great.

Bill came through for me. I got a package yesterday with most of the modules I had been wondering about. There were 3 I didn't see, so I pinged him anout those. I got a reply within an hour saying he'd had some issues with his printer and I should have them in hand soon. Will keep an eye out for them, but I'm good for now.

Well, i've given up on pacesetter games. It has literally taken months to receive any orders which is totally ridiculous. It also seems to take weeks to get any reply from my emails too and i'm still missing part of my order. I'll not be buying from there again and to be honest I don't know why I put up with it in the first place.

It's been 2 and 1/2 months since I placed my original order. As of today (11/08/14) I have received 2 of the 3 modulues ordered and Bill has not responded to my last two text messages. I will not be ordering any more from Pacesetter and currently advise against it. I was hesitant to post this since the items I do have are excellent and Bill did respond to my text in mid-September.

08/22 - Placed an order for three modules including I3. Website says items are shipped in 48 hours.
09/13 - No information or response so I sent a text to Bill at the number listed here. He did respond on the same day.
09/23 - Received two of the the three modules I ordered. No I3. Bill's text said there was a problem at the printer and it should go out in a week.
10/13 - No I3. Sent text to Bill, no response.
10/18 - No I3. Sent text to Bill, no response.
11/08 - No I3. Officially given up on seeing this module.

These finally arrived this week and started shipping yesterday. I will forward the tracking number and stamps.com notification this afternoon.

And I could've bought these damn modules off the 1$ rack!!!

I put this in the proper thread in the other section, but here is a copy FYI.

The correct version of I3 Ruins of the Red Moon arrived this week. I am out of town, but I am mailing from this location. I will have all the back orders and NTX package orders that were missing this module out by end of the weekend.
Note, I am out of town and the stamps.com tracking lags a bit. I took a bunch to the post office this morning (Gulf Shores, Alabama), but the return address and registration is listed as my Michigan address so this can cause a delay in the tracking info. Usually is fixed a day to two after mailing.

However, if you do not get a notification sometime Monday or Tuesday, please contact me so I make sure it was sent and not missed.

The man so famous he has his own thread! Somebody needs to photoshop up a 'WANTED DEAD or ALIVE' poster. :lol:

Good thing you put out a good product Bill

And the homage's continue... just read about the Citadel of Bracton Vimpgest! Good stuff

Bill, in GC3 there's mention of GC .5 - What Lurks Below. Is that an upcoming adventure, or something I missed along the way?

I draw the line at collecting... D&D beach towels.

Shoulda been: ".. from Pangreenia to Floratopolis, from mystical Treeonia of spectral Forests to Schruborial dimensions." - The Forests of Leng

GC0.5 will be shipped to everyone who purchased any of the GC modules for free in Late January/Early February (or when I finally get all my other stuff caught up). It is a supplement of sorts which includes full descriptions of all the New Monster, Magic Items, and Spells that are exclusively included in the GC series - including the next four modules. It also has supplemental background, maps, NPCs, etc.

After that, a PDF version will accompany all future sales and a hard copy available for those wishing to purchase it independently.

Thanks for asking and the support. As always, I can't thank you, and the Acaeum members, enough!

OK, this is kind of embarrassing. :oops:

Where exactly is that?

GC3... your namesake is prominent in the backstory:)

(edit)

I would have preferred a stronghold... my kind of place, a stronghold

OK, I haven't bought GC3 yet. So I've now ordered it. That's a sneaky way to get me to buy a module, Bill. :twisted:
