Gameday VIII SFS Special #1-99 Scoured Stars Invasion GM Thread (Inactive)

Game Master Tyranius

Please create your Campaign to your game when you get the chance and post links to your Gameplay thread below or PM it to me.

Alright here is what I could semi-compile for tables. We will have 4 tables. 2 Paizo and 2 Discord. Looking over each of the tiers that signed up it was mainly Tier 1-2 and a small bit of 3-4.

Table 1 (Paizo) GM Gustavef Tier 1-2

Please get your tables created, contact your players. In discord's case get them all pulled into the correct channels and test out the permissions to make sure that they can post.

Let me know if you have trouble finding any of the players and I'll see what I can do to help.

Will post maps, templates, ect this weekend.

My table has been created

My Table is read: GM Gustavef Tier 1-2

Thanks!

@Eddv @MaskedFerret- Have your tables been created and players tied to them? We have a little over a week until we kick off.

Will be adding two more discord tables:

GM Z3RO (Discord Roll for Combat) Tier 1-2

Stephen and Cozmic have been messaged for creation of your tables. Once I know what they are I'll post them in the Gameplay for Backup GM's.

Aid Token: 2d6 ⇒ (2, 5) = 7

DebugAMP and Z3RO's tables will begin with the Aid Tokens!

Hey Everyone,

I have some unfortunate news. I regret to inform you all that we will have to postpone Gameday VIII by 2 weeks.

This would place our new dates for Gameday at: 09 Sept 2019 - 17 Nov 2019

WHAT IS GOING ON? WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS?

As most of you are aware, the majority of the GM’s have not received their scenario support for the Convention to include a good portion of the Specials. With Tonya occupied by other duties this weekend, we realized as a team that we are very unlikely to see the remainder of scenario support drop by Monday the 26th. Multiple avenues were discussed and what seems to be the best solution is to push Gameday back by two weeks. This will allow enough time for the GM’s to receive their scenarios and prep them.

BUT WHAT IF WE ALREADY HAVE OUR SCENARIOS, CAN WE START THEM?

Please hold off until the new start date to be able to eligible for your boon rewards. I understand this is a large inconvenience, we are doing everything we can to make this work. Part of that is to have everyone one the same start / end times rather than scattered.

We apologize for the inconvenience that this may cause, but we want all our GMs to have a chance to shine.

HOW DO I NOTIFY MY PLAYERS?

Go ahead and post the news to your tables. Feel free to copy this email if you wish. We will be posting notices in all the PBP lodges as well as the Gameday VIII Announcement page.

I know this is not what we hoped to do, and I’m sorry. Thank you for understanding that we’re scrambling to fix this.

If you have any other questions please don’t be afraid to ask.

With Gameday VIII approaching real soon I have been receiving a similar question.

When can we start?

With this being a global event Gameday VIII will begin at Midnight UTC on September 9th (that would be 7 pm Central Standard Time on Sept 8th)

Can you update the Timeline Doc with the Date shifts. That way we don't need to do math on the fly :)

Updated!

Passing Aid token from my Table 2 (Paizo) to Eddv's Table 2 (Discord)

Awesome, use up those aid tokens and get them passed around. We should be getting fairly close to some of those first successes rolling in.

@Jon- Just reported your success but the success reporting form is linked above at the top of the page.

Good job on the successes, keep rolling them in. Try to push to get in another few successes before the 20th as we need to close some of these locations out.

Success reported for Starship graveyard

Passed aid token to TMF on Discord.

Its boosted with a hard Provide Knowledge Culture roll.

My party is a couple posts away from a success on Recon Mission 1.

Transitioning into Part 2 this evening.

Hey, can I get a backup GM to cover my table for a couple days? I'm a bit under the weather and my cold-addled brain has decided that reading comprehension is optional.

They just finished Recon Mission 4 (which I reported) and should be deciding where to go next. So far they've done Recon missions 1, 2, and 4.

Thread is here

@DebugAmp- Have a message out for a backup for you.

Please keep passing those aid another tokens around. get some good use out of them.

I can come in.

Hmm

Part 3 will be incoming in the next couple hours!

PM's sent, let's keep those aid tokens floating around.

Great Success, Let's get a few more of those pushed through so we can close this out with a bang!

Passed aid token to Gusteff.

Its boosted with a hard Provide Knowledge Culture roll.
Also boosted with Allied Offensive.

My reading comprehension is garbage, please remove one of my successes for 'All hands on deck.'

Got it. All fixed!

I have an Aid token to pass. Who is doing Buying time since that can help with the guns!

We are just a couple days away from the conclusion, Lets get some more successes coming through.

This is also reminder to remember to have your players and yourself roll for player boons! A 19-20 wins.

@Gustavef- @Jon30041 and Masked Ferret are doing Buying Time, though Jon currently has an aid token for it and Masked Ferret passed it to you so probably pass it off to:

GM Eddv (Under Gameday VII-named SFS-1-99-Tier-1-2-Table-80)

or

GM Z3RO (Under Gameday VII-named SFS-1-99-Tier-1-2-Table-98)

Passing off to GM Z3RO -- Just boosted with Provide Knowledge

And now for the Backup GM Boon Rolls 19-20 wins.

HMM: 1d20 ⇒ 8
Wismac: 1d20 ⇒ 20
Neal: 1d20 ⇒ 18
Tyranius: 1d20 ⇒ 16

Yay! Congrats Wismac. Please PM me your email address.

Wismac Boon: 1d3 ⇒ 2 Possessed Augmentation

Thank you to all of the GM's for taking the time out of your busy schedules to make this another successful special. Working across the different mediums was definitely a little different, but overall what I was seeing across the tables it looked like all of the players were having fun!

Great Job!
