Looking at my chronicle and I'm confused about the reputation. Where did the exo-guardians rep come from? Not sure if we completed the primary and secondary goal, but Digital Presence boon should add 1 Fame and 1 Reputation for Dataphiles in addition to whatever was earned from the scenario, which should be 1 or 2 fame depending on if we passed the secondary success criteria, and the corresponding amount of reputation unless something is weird about this one.

Max, congrats on the kid! I'm in a similar situation where my first arrived a couple months ago...which is why I'm now playing PBP rather than in person or via VTT. Hope all goes well!
If we do continue, and like Delea said, no pressure on anyone, this character can only play 1-07, The Solar Sortie for credit. I'm signed up for it during Outpost but while not ideal, I can still back out.
1-05 The First Mandate I'm saving for a different character during Outpost.
However, I'll be more than happy to replay something for no credit - looks like Delea and Grinds have not yet played 1-03 Yesteryear's Truth?
Long story short, this character cannot play 1-05 but can play anything else, regardless of whether I get credit or not.

Delea sighs sadly and puts on her special hat. Raatchet, unfortunately you can't replay for no credit unless that's the only way a game can happen, and in our lodge that's very seldom true. (Delea takes her hat back off.) That means that it's going to have to be 1-07 The Solar Sortie.
If we play 1-07, we so far have Raatchet, Grinds, and Delea. We know Max can't play. We don't know yet if Stiehl can play, and we're waiting to hear from OMB if he wants to/is able to run another scenario for us.
Buff-Bot, the Exo-Guardians rep is because this scenario offers an addition fame point with them for completing it. And you guys did complete both the primary (get the data) and secondary conditions (bring back the crew's belongings).
I'm still not entirely certain how to report these scenarios that offer extra fame over and above the 2 you can earn, so I wrote both down on the grounds that it is better to over-report than to under-report. Any input is appreciated!
I'm leaning towards running another SFS game. Solar Sortie looks do-able. I need to read through the scenario and I'll post here as soon as I do.

If its 1 bonus reputation for Exo-Guardians (not fame I'm presuming) think the rewards should be as follows then:
For most people: 2 Reputation for their championed faction, 1 Reputation for Exo-Guardians (May be the same as their championed faction), 2 Fame
Foe Raatchet and I since we're using our Digital Presence boon: 3 Reputation for Dataphiles, 1 Reputation for Exo-Guardians, 3 Fame
Redelia, do you have any insight here? Do I report this on the form as 3 Prestige or just 2 and note it on the chronicle sheet?
Okaay, Solar Sortie looks definitely do-able. Who's officially in?
Is that noted only on the chronicle sheet or do I report it on the form as 3 Fame?
*Note this is only for those with the special faction boon slotted; the "special faction goal completed" form takes care of the other kind.

OMB, I don't have all my scenario access yet, so I can't look at the wording for this scenario. Is the wording like this?
PRIMARY SUCCESS CONDITION
If the PCs <text redacted>, they succeed at their mission and each earn 1 Fame and 1 Reputation for any factions associated with their current faction boon, regardless of <more redacted>.
SECONDARY SUCCESS CONDITIONS
If the PCs <more redacted text>, they each earn 1 additional Fame and 1 Reputation for any factions associated with their current faction boon.
FACTION NOTES
If the PCs completed the secondary success conditions, they impress the Wayfinders faction. Each PC earns 1 additional Reputation with the Wayfinders faction, in addition to any other Reputation earned as a result of completing this scenario.
If this is the wording, we get 3 reputation, one of them with Exo-guardians, and the other 2 with our slotted faction. We only get 2 fame, though. I don't think there is a way to report the extra reputation; this is one of the places where the paper chronicles take precedence over the online reporting.
Delea, that looks similar. I think the paper chronicles that I sent out will suffice, then. If this changes, let me know and I can write up a new chronicle as needed.
So, Buff-Bot is out due to impending fatherhood. Delea, Stiehle, Raatchet and Grinder are in. Do we want to recruit 1-2 more for the team, or do you want to get started with 4?
Well, then, if anyone knows of a good candidate for fifth member, please nominate them. Otherwise I'll kick off Solar Sortie tomorrow in this same thread to keep things simple!

I'd find it amusing to imagine the next mission picking up right where this one left off:
When all of a sudden all four of our personal comms start beeping simultaneously with a message telling us to report to the next briefing immediately....

Gotta say again how much fun it was to adventure with this group! OMB did a fantastic job GMing and I had a blast all the way through both scenarios. Stiehle is bound for The First Mandate in a couple of weeks, and hopefully will see some of you again in the future. Raatchet, you mentioned you're playing another character in the same adventure I'm in?

Yes, both games were a great time! Thanks OMB for building the world around us and thanks to my fellow players for making it fun to explore together!
Stiehle, yup, my ysoki envoy, named Arratoi, will be joining you in The First Mandate.
Delea, Raatchet is now in your Live Exploration Extreme game. Sorry to expose you to even more of Raatchet!
Grinds, I'll see you in my Fugitive on the Red Planet game!
Solar Elementals!
Keep an eye out, as I will probably run some more games in the future. I'm really enjoying Starfinder. And you guys are great!
Also, go ahead and roll Day Jobs if you need to!
Will do!
