==Collecting==
The first printing of the 1e version of the adventure is highly sought after, and sellers sometimes misrepresent the original 3.5 version, and the second 1e printing as the true GenCon first printing.[http://www.acaeum.com/forum/about4693.html]

Identifying characteristics of the '''1e version (either 1st or 2nd printing)''' is the starbust on the cover that mark the adventure as a ENnie nominee. Identifying characteristics of the true '''1e first printing''' are the mis-numbered area key on the map on the inside cover. Buyers should be careful and wary if they believe they are purchasing the true 1e first printing.

==Awards==
DCC #12.5 received a nomination for Best Adventure, ENnies 2006.[http://www.enworld.org/ennies/2006.html]
