This is the official recruitment thread for the Third Online Play by Post Gameday. We will be playing Scenario #5–08: The Confirmation, which is designed for levels 1-2.
I have a lot of affection for the Play-by-Post format. I like that it gives players the opportunity to really think through their character's actions, strategize and plan with their teammates and really flesh out their PC's personalities with (at least a little!) characterization and role-playing. If you apply to this game, please be prepared to do more than post a one-line directive with all the flare and personality of "rook to queen bishop 4".
Players should:
- Be a registered member of Pathfinder Society Organized Play.
- Apply & post with a complete, legal character of appropriate level. Please include your PFS number for your submitted character on the Alias profile or post it to the discussion thread along with email and information for your Chronicle Sheet.
- Make sure you are familiar with the rules included in the Guide to Pathfinder Society Organized Play. It's a free download and part of the core assumption.
- Commit to check in and post at least once per day on weekdays. Post rate is key in keeping a PBP fresh and interesting to all who participate. I will always understand that life comes first, but this is Official Society Play. Habitual stragglers will be asked to step down if I feel they are not carrying their weight as Pathfinders.
- Recognize that the rules of Pathfinder Society Organized Play require the player to own the Additional Reasources used to build his/her character. While I will not ask for any proof of ownership, I will expect to be provided with a link to the Online Reference Document when asked. Coding the links into your sheet will save time and is especially appreciated.
- Provide an abbreviated stat block with your most referenced values on your Classes/Levels field of the character's profile, i.e:
Class/Level | HP 10/10 | AC: 18 /T: 13 /FF: 15 | F: +4 /R: +3/ W: +0 | CMB +5 | CMD +17 | Speed 20 | Init. +3 | Perc. +4 | S.M. +4 | - Provide at least a short section on character background that coordinates with traits selected. This is not a requirement, but very much encouraged as it enriches the role-playing experience.
- Please, be bold and roll your own actions when you post it! (via the dice expression, see "How to format your text" below the post window) Leaving it to me to look up your attack/skill bonus and roll it for you just makes more work for me. I will make missing rolls, passive rolls for the party as a whole as well as saving throws when necessary.
As your GM, I will:
- Finalize tables by October 30, 2014, if not before then and begin the game before 11:59 pm my time on November 1, 2014.
- Update the Gameplay thread at least once per day during the week as well as once over the weekend or do my best to notify the group of the reason for the delay.
- Report our progress and send out Chronicle sheets at the conclusion of each scenario we run.
- Respond in a timely manner to any questions or concerns.
I'm looking forward to a great Gameday. Let's have some fun!
Checking in, not sure what to make yet, but I think I could do with another confirmation for a fresh character :).
Will be a brawler with shield thrower archetype
I am interested and will be working on a level 1 wizard tonight.
Looks like a good group, should be interesting! Please have all gear purchased and recorded before the Gameday begins on November 1st.
Ok, gameplay and discussion threads are up! Please feel free to dot in. If everyone confirms, we'll have full table of 7!
