Lost, Non-reported Scenarios?


Pathfinder Society

Grand Lodge 2/5

What do you do if you've lost a scenario sheet and the scenario in question was never reported? Or you GM'd a scenario and the only evidence you have is your own written GM sheet since the scenario was never reported?

Yes, I told the the Venture Captain about the non-reported scenarios and then later on gave a massive and detailed list to his successor. I think maybe a third of the scenarios were actually fixed or added.

Since I have no evidence any longer for some games should I go back through the chronicle sheets that I do have and attempt to edit it so that the missing scenarios no longer factor into gold/items bought and experience? I get the feeling after a certain point the character would just no longer make sense since they'd be below the tier they were indicated as playing

What about my GM stars? I've run over 30 games, but since several of them were never reported officially I'm listed as a single star GM. After not seeing the game reported in two years I'm going to go with it never getting reported and don't know how to proceed from there.

Well as far as the characters go the chronicles are the official record. If you have those you're fine.

For recovery of sheets (and I literally went through this with a player 2 days ago). There isn't much I can do to produce a record that doesn't exist. I can try my best and look for the scenario if you have any information about it (or I should say a VC can, I don't actually have any ability to do so), but without that I can only recover what I can find.

As for reporting, if you have all the information to report a game on your notes, you can do that. It may help more than just you to do so. Without reporting your table count/star count won't go up.

The best info I can get you is to talk to your VC, but unfortunately many of these things are easier to deal with at the time they happen than they are now.

So if I don't have the chronicle anymore and it was never reported does that basically mean I never played the scenario? The character in question is illegal for play, but is the scenario itself freed up to be played legally on someone else? I don't want to cheat the system to get a free replay, but I'm basically not getting the benefit of the first play through if my character gets audited.

As far as I'm concerned or can prove yes you get to replay it. (YMMV) I'd personally warn the GM about having some out-of-game knowledge (as if you had GMed it)

Cool. Thanks for the input. I'm usually very careful when I play a scenario that I've already GM'd or that I've prepared to run. I let the rest of the table make important decisions.


While in many lodges scenarios are reported by Venture Officers, anyone can report a game that they GMed. So if there is a pattern of games you GMed not getting reported, you should probably start reporting them yourself. You need the PFS numbers of the people who played at your table to report it correctly, and if you have them, I'm sure they'd appreciated having their games reported as much as you would.

This.

Unless its all been conventions that have not been reported. Those usually handle reporting centrally. But if its a certain con, better let those people know there is something wrong so they can work on their reporting.

A good idea in general when dealing with situations like this, but for my specific situation it no longer applies. I'm not a part of that lodge anymore since I've moved. Maybe if I run into that trouble again.

A good lesson for GMs stuck in awkward situations.
