Had an interesting rules question that I think I know the answer to but I wanted others opinions/rulings.

Situation. character ran into a reoccurring trap without detecting is and set it off. After suffering the effects the player said that they should now be able to deactivate it. However I said that they would still need to make a Perception check to be able to do that regardless of if it had been set off. I refer to this entry:

Source Starfinder Core Rulebook pg. 410
A character must first detect a trap in order to attempt to disable it, since only through observing particular details about the trap can the character know the proper countermeasures. Even if a trap has already been triggered, characters can still attempt to deactivate the trap. Some traps no longer pose a danger once they’ve been triggered, but the PCs might be able to stop the trap’s ongoing effects, if any. Other traps might not have ongoing effects, but reset over a period of time; characters can still attempt to disable the trap during this time.

I find that allowing people to just run through traps to "detect" them doesn't mean they know how the trap works so why should they know how to deactivate it? I think I'm doing it right but I'd welcome other's take on this.

Thanks

Hi,

Recently I noticed that I haven't received GM credit for tables I ran. The only thing that I'm seeing that accounts for this omission is a note that "player has already run scenario..." message.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I thought a GM gets run credit for a table regardless of how many times they run the same scenario. Has that changed? According to every Starfinder Society Guide (including the most recent) it says you get credit for every table you run. So is this a bug in the recording/accounting system? Web site bug?

Please advise.

Thanks.

This order appears to be stuck in the "pending" state.

Payment information is correct and funds are available.

Please advise or fix this so the order can be processed.

Thanks.

Please resubmit this pending order for processing.

Thanks.

This is probably covered somewhere but I've failed to find it.

Question: what/where are the guidelines for online chronicles? For example: how do you create them so that they are "official" and recognized? I get that you can make your own from the PDF but is it that simple? Are there do's/do not's that I should be aware of?

This pertains mainly to Starfinder chronicles but any guidance would be appreciated.

Thanks.

These two orders have been pending since Aug 10th and Aug 14th (respectively).

Can I get an update on when these might be shipped?

Thanks.

I posted two sessions for my Dawn of Flame AP campaign and noticed that I was given 24 Starfinder GM credits for each session.

Someone might want to take a look at that.

I have finally received 10 tables of credit of Starfinder sessions.

When will the nova show up on the downloadable ID card?

Thanks.

When reporting having ran Starfinder Society Roleplaying Guild Quest: Into the Unknown several times (I'm now up to 5) it is showing as having been played before in the GM session report.

This also happens when multiple player sessions (I'm up to 2) have been reported with different characters.

Who do I contact to have this fixed or is there a different way to report this that doesn't cause the reporting error to show up?

Thanks.
