When I interviewed with Joshua at genCon this was definately mentioned.
And no I don't know if I got the nod. If you think you have the chops I would suggest that you step up, even if you might be in compitition with me. Best person for the position and all.
If nothing else it shows you are devoted to the game. It is like applying for a job. Often HR departments will keep you on file after a position is filled. If they think you have promise for something else down the pike you get a call. It has happened to me.

This might have already been asked, but if it was, I never saw an answer from Josh...
What are you using to determine the most active regions. Is it number of scenarios run, or number of events set up in the area?
ie. I run 20 sessions under scenario X while someone else runs 1 session under 20 scenarios?
I ask because I have a friend who thinks he has to make a new event based on the reasons he's running (ie. group of friends, someone is out of town, location, day of the week, etc)
I'll understand if you choose not to answer this, considering how it might taint the reporting of scenarios.
Active regions are based perceptively on two factors:
1. Amount of reporting
2. Amount of messageboard traffic
From those two factors, I determined the starting regions for the Society. Keep in mind that if your region isn't on the starting list, it still may someday be there. :-)
Look for the first wave of coordinators to be announced mid-September. I've made some decisions, but I want to announce a solid group of those decisions at once.

for #2 is that message board traffic in general, or more centered to the society boards? I tend to post more to the other sections unless I have fully read/GMed a scenario, or are preparing there-to, but on the flip side including all messageboards allows PbPs to up a region's post count. Sorry, just thinking out loud...

Those of us who weren't at GenCon (and I mean me) are looking forward to talking with you on the phone. How can we schedule that if you are still interested in doing that, that is.

We are stroking the Minnesota fires. No Wisconsin cheese allowed at our table...ehmm... unless its a bribe...:-)
More like fanning Minnesota fires.
With you five we'll be up to 13 regular players that I'm aware of and at least 4 more that want to play semi-regularly. I wish more MN folks posted here; how we got the message board traffic high enough to get on the list is beyond me.

Eagerly looking for these announcements and hoping to see a name for Los Angeles area! Oh wait, two more days till mid month. Darn.
I'll check back in a few days. :)
We have a trickle of PFS games now running at the store, I'd love for more.
I'll be making a series of phone calls tomorrow to wrap the first wave. Some folks have already even been selected. :-)

Be sure to mention that there is a meetup in Pasadena, CA eager to get PFS into it's schedule, and our next event is rapidly approaching. Thanks so much!

I am curious to see how this turns out as I am stuck between two regions. Makes me think I should have applied for one of them.
Daethboy
Indeed - you should have applied in my opinion. You acted in the way I would hope coordinators will do in the future.
While traveling and posting my plans here you took on the challenge - organized a game in a store for me and my friend - and helped us to a very memorable day.
This includes the game as well as the game shop (that I might never have been aware of othervice) and also the chance to meet other players whom we othervice never would have met.
To me that is what I like about PFS - the society aspekt. Good luck that Conneticut will show up on Josh map some day. You get my vote for whatever it helps (off course it doesn't count officially - but Jeff is reading these pages).

I agree. That was a great game. It brought Pathfinder closer to my area and the store owner was delighted. He told me that everyone who showed up at the store that day for other types of gaming were all asking about it and he can't keep Pathfinder stuff on the shelves.
Thanks for coming to visit, Thod. It was great to meet you.
Waves a small Canadian flag while he sulks in the corner.
Sadly, here in Calgary I'm only a 12 hour drive from Paizo's office. I guess it could be worse. I could be in Vancouver and only be a 3 hour drive from their office.
I actually thought that Canada would have been their first expansion.

Come to Denver! It's must nicer and drier than Seattle :) Two Canadians were part of the first expansion ... I think Neil & I were announced at the same time...

Who called?It's Destiny here. I need you to organise PFS play in Perth.
(Important caveat: I'm in Melbourne but I used to live in Perth)If the rooms at Tactics seem a bit too... public, maybe you could get a community room set aside at the Citiplace Community Centre?
May very well be doing that. Already been in touch with VC White, Tactics and a couple of the uni clubs to see if there an existing / unreported Pathfinder Society presence and I haven't come up with anything yet.
And although our nearest Venture-Captain is an almost trivial 3438km away it may be a bit of a challenge setting something up from scratch.
I'm switching my home game over to PFS for a bit as I've got some friends interested in trying it out. Might try a couple of those games at Tactics and see how we feel.

Yeah, it can't hurt. Though a games store in the capital city has a lot of traffic move by and you'll be competing with Magic players on weekends, most likely.
The best place would be a group study room at the State Library, just to up the glorious nerd factor, though I doubt they'd like food and drink being brought in.
I'm sure there'd be an enormous player base at Curtin Uni or Murdoch University - they might have groups dedicated to RPG pursuits.
