..and I thought 50 was a lot (not me but a local player. I was on a slow approach to 40 but, with the Core Campaign, I will probably see that and beyond. I mostly look for what the party might need but, if a scenario screams a particular type of character and I have that type, I will play that character.

Try to make sure you have at least one character in each sub-tier. That way, when mustering tables, you always have at least one option.
Two characters per sub tier is even better, and three is better than that.
So you want at least 18 active characters at all times...oh, man! I'm behind! I need 2 more to fill in for retired characters.
Seriously, play the character that is currently shiny. If they're all equally interesting, find out what other people are playing and fill any gaps. Or play the character whose faction has a boon this scenario, or who is from the region, or pick a character who fits the theme.
We play our pirate character on any scenario that sounds like it has a boat in it. Undead in the title? Got a paladin for that. Etc.

Hi, I'm Shooting Star and I'm an ALTaholic.
H I shooting star.
I have so many PFS characters and I love them all equally. How do I choose who to play? Just made my -9 last night and I'm eager to try him out but I feel bad shelving all my other beloved characters.
Who else has his problem and how do you choose?
Try to get at least one in each tier: go up before you go out. This will open up more play opportunities. Level 3 characters can play in 1-5s ANd 3-7s. 5s can play in 1-5, 3-7, and 5-9
If you have a level 6 and a game opens up , PLAY IT. 6 is a doldrum level thats easy to get stuck on.

I have 20, several are retired (12,19.2,13, 12, & a dead lv 5 bard). I really miss playing my retired guys and have a hard time keeping characters at every atl. (26 non core episodes to play).
Im GMing more so its a way to have a lot of never played guys at every level. But i also miss playing my shelved guys.

... problem? I'm only at 40... well, registered... plus the 14 "perpetual pregens" I use for random 1st L games as filler tables of course... though now I guess I need a few more for Core games, just in case...
