[PFS] DM Kludde's ongoing soul harvesting: recruitment for Low-Level PFS games (Inactive)

Game Master Kludde

That's ok, but most of the group would be level 2. Since some of the levels are recommended to be played at slow advancement, you can 'catch up' with the rest of the group around level 4-5.

Sweet ... I have an Alchemist 1 that I would like to play if nobody shows up ahead of me.

I'm curious which levels are recommended to play at slow advancement...I hadn't heard that before.

I have a level 2 barbarian or level 2 wizard that would join Emerald Spire, depending on which would help more.

I haven't made any PFS characters. If there are slots open I could make another character, but if it's full, no biggie.

I'm interested in Emerald Spires \ The Cellar (or anything else) if there's still room

I'd like to bring Yakima into the Emerald Spire. She is currently level 3.2.

Interested in Emerald Spire.

ShadowKhan and Patethicwretch, can you check in in the discussion thread here for the second level of Emerald spire?

Chadius, Badslacker, Yakima, Wolfwaker (and anyone else interested): I'll keep you in the loop in case more players drop (or I case I decide to open up a third table).

I'd be interested in Emerald Spire from the beginning if you start another table. Also, put my name back on the list.

Dotting here. You said only dot once per player, so I will give you the choice. I have a Lvl 1 rogue halfling that should be available within the next week, or I have a tiefling ranger2/rogue1 as well as a human Wizard lvl 1. just check out my aliases for more info

I have a Tiefling Urban Ranger and a Human Magus in the wings. Just need to transfer them to here and make sure they are PFS legal.

The official PFS PbP Game Day 3 event is posted. HERE'S a link.

Hey, I'm new to PFS, but I'd like get some more levels for the next PFS event. I'm a level 1 gunslinger human. Stats are 10 STR, 18 Dex 12 Con 10 INT 13 WIS 7CHA, I look forward to playing with you.

If you scroll up to the very top of the page, look for the italicized text above the posts, specifically the "Enter your PC in the -->list<--, and I will call out in the thread when a game starts (and send a PM, if I have spare time). See the campaign tab for further info" part.

That -->list<-- part is a link to an online sign up sheet.

You can also go to the link I just posted above for the PFS PbP Game Day. Both are open to all. Just gotta place your name on the list and find a game. :)

EDIT

Actually, I'll just repost the link for you, HERE

Thanks Beckett!

I've created a sign-up thread for the PbP game day, which you can find when you follow this link

As Beckett already mentioned, general information on the game day, and a full list of games, can be found here.

To the GMs that frequent this board: you are cordially invited to use the campaign and spreadsheet as well, if you think it convenient. I think it is nice for players to have a quick overview and see what games are available, and the spreadsheet achieves that.

I would be interested if you start up a new table for the Emerald Spire as well.

Cheers
McS

Question: What are tiers?

Make sure you have a character available at the right tier (!).

Also, is this a day-long event or is this just organizing players and DMs?

The game day is (contrary to what its name implies) a three-month long event. Think of it as a convention for PbP players: games will be run over the course of three months. The nice thing is that GMs and players alike can have multiple table.

I'll be running one table that does the destiny of the sands trilogy, and another one that does somewhat higher level games from season 5 (hell knight's feast, weapon in the rift, and maybe a third one, depending on time).

Oh, OK. So the tiers just indicate what levels my PCs should be?

All Scenarios/Modules/Etc. . . in Pathfinder Society (organized play), or PFS are broken down into Tiers. Yes, they are limitations on what levels you must be within to play.

So, for example, if a game is Tier 1-5, only 1st through 5th level characters are allowed to play in it. The scenario itself limits this, not the DM. In addition to that, each Tier has within it "sub-Tiers". For Tier 1-5, the Sub-Tiers are (1-2) and also (4-5). As long as you are 1st - 5th level, you can play in it, and all of the characters total level will set the Sub-Tier. This is generally referred to playing high or low. It's possible for lower level character to "play up", or the opposite, for higher level characters to "play down", but the intent is so that a given scenario can be used for either group as needed, that is, to allow for more possible options. Each Scenario has notes inside on how to increase the threat/challenges for higher and lower level play, such as switching out monsters for higher level characters or increasing the DC's on tasks.

You must be within the Tier to play, but not within the Sub-Tier, (as the Sub-Tier is based on all of the player's combined levels). Let me rephrase that a bit, as it might be a bit confusing. It's only important that you be within the Tier. As long as that is true, your level, along with everyone else's levels totaled up, will determine the Sub-Tier to actually be played, unless you all decide to play up or down, or the DM sets the Sub-Tier in advance, and lets everyone know at the start that they are playing up/down.

Thanks, that makes sense. I guess I'll sign up with my level 1s, then.

Thanks for setting up the sheet Kludde, great idea!

Kludde, will you be returning to the list after the GameDay?

I probably will.

On a side note: I still have one spot available for a game of 6-06 Hall of the Flesh Eaters. You can sign in here, and then proceed directly to the game here

I also have two more spots for the hellkinght's feast (tier 5-9), one of the best modules from season 5, for which you can sign up here, and the game is here

Hurry, these games start nov 1st!

You still have room in 5-9 Hellknight's Feast or is it full or too late to jump in? Have Alafair ready to go if you have space.

You would be fashionably late (very fitting for a dinner party), but it is still possible. Just proceed right to the gaming thread here

Would love to join a low level game already put my name on the spreadsheet thank you.

When ever you are open up for a low level game for me I would much appreciate it thank you.

I have one (1) spot for the Emerald Spire Superdungeon Level 3 (Tier 2-4). We're playing through all levels with a fixed group, and a player has decided to leave, so we're looking for a replacement.

The emerald spire is a series of 16 dungeon levels of increasing difficulty and tier. We're at the third level now, so your character should be between level 2-4.

Open to anyone in principle, though I would give preference for someone who is high on the recruitment list.

I'd be interested normally, but really want to start at the beginning.

Kludde - Skaarr here. I do have my namesake character (Jelani). I'd have to put his character sheet online, but he's level 4. I haven't played him in three years and don't have virtual copies of his chronicles, but enough sessions have been reported online to put him at level 4.

Jellaba, that actually sounds like the best solution! You might want to run the next level at slow advancement, though.

this.

I'd be interested normally, but really want to start at the beginning.

When you say Jellaba, are you referring to me?

Duck you, autocorrect...

Jelani gets autocorrected to Jellaba on my computer. Is that even a word?

In that case I will digitize Jelani, and then drop back into the thread. Cool?

Very cool. Great we can keep you as a player.

Everybody else: apologies for the confusion. Those interested in running the Emerald spire from the beginning: It's very well possible that I start a third table as some point, though probably after the start of gameday 3 has cooled down a bit. Running at maximum capacity right now...

I'd definitely be interested in joining Emerald Spire too if you eventually decide to open a new table for it.

I was about to start our #4–15: The Cyphermage Dilemma (1-2) game today for PbP Gameday #3 and a player bowed out unexpectedly. I have an opening for a single character.

Party currently consists of:

Investigator
Bard
Summoner
Cleric
Brawler

We're already behind schedule starting and I'm in a hurry so I'm looking at first come first serve from the the top ten on DMK's list are. Those would be:

Matopi Golem
Seth 86
Magabeus
GM bourgeoisx
Sacromus
Drako "The Merciful"
Khelreddin
capsocrates
frostybroc
Lord Zekk

Any of you interested? Recruitment is HERE.

GM ShadowLord, Im interested if you can't fill the spot. I have a Level 2 Inquisitor.

I have already played The Cyphermage Dilemma but wouldn't mind going through it again as a favor. But put me at the bottom of the list in favor of other people--I would rather not add another game to my plate.

Thanks for the invite Shadowlord, however I do not have any characters available at the moment.

I've filled the slot - thanks!

Table II of the Emerald dungeon also had a player that dropped. I'm looking for a player with a level 1-3 character ready to run the emerald spire super dungeon starting at the second level.

First player to check in here gets the spot.

Magabeus has joined in, so my spot has been filled. Thank you very much

More.. more. Start up more.. ☺

Argh!

Panic mode!

I really need to get the occult dabbler boon for my playtest character RIGHT NOW... because the soonest I can get to PFS is the 29th! Any takers? Please?

It is possible to finish a play by post by then, but it is unlikely. You would probably have better luck with a VTT at this point.

I've been giving the waiting list some thought, and I'm still trying to find ways to improve the process.

I want to get a more constant stream of games going. I reviewed all the game I played by PbP in the past year, and found that most games take somewhere between 25 and 35 days. That means, if I permanently run three tables side-by-side, I can start up a game every roughly ten days.

What I intend to do - starting somewhere end of Dec, early Jan, is put up a spreadsheet with approximate starting days for the games I intend to run.

Thematically, I'm considering running the season 5 games, in order. I might stick to just the low-level ones.

TL;DR: expect more games starting end of december

I've added a new PFS alias to the spreadsheet, looking for tier 1-2 repeatables, primarily.
