Thanks Sebastian. Drawing this map was great fun, as I had to imagine what a crashed Shirren ship would look like -- especially after Vorka was done with it! I drew up two of these maps for the two tables we were running of We Be Goblins with the Crashed Space Ship. They attracted lots of attention. We got a bunch of great walk-ins who are new to the Society!
We also got to talk up the upcoming Starfinder game, and showed off the Shirren Ship from the Blog. Many of the people who came were excited about the idea of playing both games!
I went to my local gamestore. They were participating in Free RPG Day, but because of a convention, they had no one to run games, so it was just a table of stuff to look over and take a few things if you wanted. This means that even though I went to a store, I can't get the Tome of First Contact. (I can't complain too much, though, since I got the last copy of the Starfinder First Contact book.)
Having your store participate in Free RPG day is the first battle, since the store has to pay to participate. Now that you know that it paraticipates, you can contact them next year and offer to run games for Free RPG Day. They'll likely take you up on it! It can be a lot of fun to welcome newcomers and run adventures for them!
Just be sure to bring lots of Welcome To Pathfinder Boons, as well as information about the times when your PFS group runs games!
Hmm
The game store I went to was packed with people playing Pathfinder, so those PFS boons must have been very popular. For me, the upside was that I had no trouble getting a copy of Starfinder: First Contact despite the large number of Paizo fans there.

So between the entry in First Contact, and getting to battle one in the Delve at Paizocon I am really liking the Contemplatives. While its fairly obvious that they Starfinder team intends for people to play a host of varied species in home games I was wondering what the availability of species like the Contemplative would be in SFS. Will there be "species boons" or will there be a list of species from outside the Core book that are available for play(like Tengu, Wayang, Nagaji, Kitsune, and the elemental races from PFS)? Or is it just what's available in the Core book?

I'm not sure, but you may be able to see if you can organize a Free RPG Day "make-up game" before the cut-off on the boon at the store which participated in Free RPG Day and get the 2nd boon.
Probably wouldn't hurt to ask the Powers-that-be here. John/ Tonya/ Linda/ Thursty?|

Free Replay Day: You regain the ability to replay (or earn full credit as a GM) one of the Pathfinder Modules below for which you have already earned credit. This does not allow you to replay an adventure you have already replayed using the replay opportunity granted by GM stars (or similar additional replay rewards), and this does not allow a character to earn credit from the same adventure more than once; you need to use a different PC to replay the adventure (or apply credit to a different PC). Once you use this boon, cross out the titles of the other modules, and include this Chronicle sheet with that character’s records.
It's a replay for a free RPG Day Module that you can use anytime, even if you haven't played any RPG Day Modules yet. (Which is great, because some of the higher level Free RPG Day Modules are great fun!)
Hmm

In going over the Boon given out for this I ... have a question.
The "Free Replay Day" boon: It lists "Master of the Fallen Fortress" as one of the Pathfinder Modules which we can replay. But... we can replay it already, right? I mean, it's a Tier 1 and can only be played with 1st level PCs, but can be replayed with any number of 1st levels right? What am I missing here?

Yup, and We Be Goblins, as well. A few of them are already replayable. But some are not, so it's good for those.
We Be Goblins actually has a tier 1-2 chronicle sheet and can be applied to 2nd level characters once as a player and once as a GM. Presumably, the replay would allow you to apply a third chronicle to a 2nd level character.
I'm pretty sure We B4 Goblins is the same.

That's what I figured was going to be the case. And I know some people have stated that recently Fallen Fortress became that too, even if the chronicle didn't get changed.

It was very confusing for a while, and I was one of those who thought a level 2 could play MoFF, but when the Season 8 guide came out, and it was still unclear, Linda did post clarifying. TOZ provided a link and quote in the Evergreen thread that's currently going, HERE.
