Fowl Play?
Btw, I really need to get myself a document containing my XP and prestige and boons, because I just realized I dont really have an overview of it all...I think I might be leveling but not sure...Bah!
Also, has anyone claimed the pearl of power from the last scenario? I think Jorag would like it.

If we were all tengu, I'd buy that. But we only have a token tengu, so that's really not... fair?
Have you downloaded the free .pdf from the Pathfinder Society?
It actually talks about how to get gear from modules and the sort.
Over in Player Resources.
Basic gist, the items on your chronicle sheet that are not crossed off can be bought with currency at the end of that module or at any point a GM deems it possible to purchase one.
It strains credulity a little bit, but it really neatly avoids the whole 'I need the cloak, no *I* NEED the cloak' arguments. You can use the item in the adventure it is found in at no cost, but at the end you can presume that it goes into the Pathfinder storage bins and they'll let you buy it at whatever price, and since the Society is a clearing-house for adventuring, they have spares.
No, you can't loot this hypothetical 'storage bin', it's a figurative description I've come up with for the best way I can think of to describe it from an IC perspective.
So if you have the 1,000 gold that a L1 Pearl of Power costs in your cash reserves, and are willing to spend it at an appropriate moment -- Congrats on your new acquisition!
bluedove DID say we were in a town and we did have three days to essentially burn...

At the end of each scenario you are awarded a chronicle sheet. If you are successful you earn an amount of gold equivalent to how successful you do during the scenario. Some items found during the scenario become available for you to buy with the gold that you earned. So basically all items found become available to everyone in the group. In this case, all six players can by the pearl of power if they have enough gold.
You can down load the latest society rule book for free from the link below. It will help you a lot.
Right, your chronicles basically "unlock" things for purchase, rather than awarding you with what you found. Although you did receive a free personalized wayfinder on your Confirmation.
Ok Jorag, you should be able to look at your sessions tab on each character to see the games that have been reported for them. But let's see if my memory is up to the task; Andy(Rhanloi Ehlyss) and I encouraged you to make your first PFS character and you played Tide of Twilight with us in the first PbP gameday event. After that I began the DWK series and you played in all 4 of those and then The Confirmation. Soo...
Tide of Twilight
DWK 1
DWK 2
DWK 3
DWK 4
The Confirmation
Yep, looks like he should be level 3 now with 6 XP and 12 PP!
I just keep a notepad file with my list of chronicles and how much Gold each one awarded, but the Tracking Sheets that comes with the Guide to Organized Play are handy too. There's even a form fill-able one to keep a digital record. Hope that helps!
Edit: Uh oh... I'm not sure a level 3 can still run in First Steps. =/ (Goes to look up)
Yeah, I report it to the VOs and then they have a back-log to report it to the Paizo system. It usually takes a week or two.

Hrmmm... mind is drawing a serious blank on the team names, I will keep thinking.
Also, I think I'm holding on to most of my money, the only purchase I have to note is upgrading Mira's gun to remove the battered condition (300g using the Gunslinger's special note on the Gunsmithing feat)
We will miss Jorag if he has to go! It was fun playing the confirmation with you!
Theadric is an interesting concept, is he going for a Ranger/Jester build?
So the PDF copy of the Additional Resources won't open for you? Just tried it myself and it's working ok for me. =/
But when I want to quickly know if some trait or feat or archetype is PFS legal, I check Archives of Nethys. If they show the Grand Lodge symbol on the text, it means it's legal for Society Play. The warpriest and mindchemist classes are legal for play provided you own a copy of the Advanced Class Guide. The playtest versions are no longer legal for play as of 8/14/14.

Heloooooooo pathfinders.
Look at your ranger!
Now back to me!
Now back at your ranger!
Now back to me!
Sadly, he isn't me. But if he stopped using boring front door entrances and switched to explosions, he could smell like me (like gunpowder)
Look down, back up! We're on a dock! You're on an adventure with the ranger your ranger could smell like.
What's in your hand? Back at me. I have it! It's an oyster, full of components to that spell you love. Look again. The spell components are now explosions!
Anything is possible when your ranger smells like explosions, and not boring.
I'm on a pony.
*jingle*
As a side note, Jorag, alchemist is pretty fun! I played one in BD's Devil We Know campaign
Jorag, we need your fresh character to join us soon. You can always make use of a Pre-gen if the choice is still brewing. =)
Also, Draco, you still with us?

If a party member's roleplay and action shifts from 'fun antics' to 'endangering an entire party for no particularly good reason whatsoever' aside from 'it's fun for the player in question', does a party have any sort of option of handling the matter within PFS play?
This is the third session I've been in (two at GenCon this past August) with someone whose character has performed like this, and its not going to be fun or funny if our mission crashes and burns because of it. (We got lucky on one. The other one... we're very lucky we didn't have a TPK and barely made it out by the skin of our teeth and lost points because of it.)

/sigh
1. I'm sorry you feel I'm in the territory of endangering the party. I can see you are very serious about this, and that my role-playing of this character is upsetting you. I apologize.
2. Honestly, though I've liked playing this character with some zany antics, I try to not have the antics ever affect anything mechanically. For example, I was never going to really throw the key away. Boldren had already said he would mage hand it, so I am just trying to play into the story. I was even trying to help attach the crate to the crane, but didn't realize I was stepping on your toes. I apologize.
3. As for recourse? How about you just ask me? Had you expressed some concern earlier, I could have backed off without the need for a response like this. I'm certainly trying to contribute to everyone's fun, not detract from it. Consider my character's antics over with. I apologize.

When the GM has made it blatantly clear that there's an area of the floor in the building we're in that's dramatically unstable over a fall and water of uncertainty, that's kind of the flavor of a situation I'm looking at. Launching from a pony onto an exceptionally unstable area that the party is already working on a solution is the sort of thing that can cause a party wipe.
Since we're being blunt, I'll roll it right out.
Bringing in what appears to be a fresh new character and then engaging in this activity made it look to me like you were 'trolling'.
I'm sorry I made that assumption, because you are responding in a rational and cohesive fashion. This is unlike the other two situations I cited, where the player wasn't willing to stop, and claimed that telling them 'how to play their character' was 'bullying' them. This is part of the reason I was attempting to be subtle and suggest.
When dice are rolled, mechanics come into play. bluedove is an awesome GM, and I trust her filter, but after a certain point it becomes uncertain 'what is real' and 'what is fluff'. I apologize for not asking you to tone it down a bit in the first place.
I don't mind some of the antics, and the 'feel' of your character is awesome. But sometimes, stunts get a party killed, and sometimes they are Moments of Awesome. We're only on the first of four steps (at least) in this module, and I'm sure there's going to be call for amazing showmanship. Just not at the moment?

I've played a number of characters, and the vast majority of them are very business-oriented and low-antics. So it's probably good for me to know that the antics have limits; I'll stay within them.
Anyway, let's get back on track with the scenario...apologies to our great DM and others for a little drama.

My input on the role play. Role play your character how you envision him to be. If anyone has a problem with your character, they can choose not to adventure with him. If the entire group has a problem with him, then they can choose to adventure without him, and so on. When you create a character you have a vision in mind. You may decided to add more or less personality depending on feedback from other characters. If a player becomes so inappropriate that the GM needs to step in, then I would consider a reduction. As you know, this happened with Boldren in the last scenario. I decided to tone it down some because of the feedback I received. Not because I was afraid of offending anyone, but because I personally decided I was over doing it a little. That being said, if someone addresses your extreme personality in character, then that is a different story. They can role play how they feel their character would react to yours. That in game feedback could very well change how your character perceives things and could change how he interacts with the group.
So fare I see your character as completely unencumbered, free wheeling, fun loving with little to no concern for danger. I find him amusing and Boldren's inner-child wants to join in, but his reason prevents him from throwing caution to the wind. Maybe after some strong dwarven drink!

Okay, so our revised list:
Boldren The Tarnished as Teflon Billy
Draco Anabolis as Ruroni Kenshin
Mira Ellis Alder as Annie Oakley (Broadway musical variant)
Vincenzo Moretti as Vinny
Theadric Greyhood as Colt Seavers
Captain Havok as Sgt. Rock
Wei Ji as Leroy Jethro Gibbs
Note:I'll admit I was having a hard time with Wei, but yeah, given the group dynamic and his rather... wan-worn perspective, Gibbs fits.
Let's keep working on this!
Sorry! I am, just have a lot of RL stuff that piled up on me. I'll get you guys updated after I'm home from a Dr appt.
I'll be happy to give you guys the results of an action just as soon as someone actually takes one rather than merely suggesting them. =P
