Have you checked to make sure all the games you ran have been reported? If you click on the pathfinder society logo on the left hand side of the screen, click "My Pathfinder Society", then go to the GM/Event coordinator tab it will tell you at the top how many tables of credit you have. Hope that helps!
Also... I am not sure if this was just me, but I got sent a few Core tables when I am pretty sure I was supposed to be Normal. Not a big deal for me, but I got in the habit of asking my players when they got there. Maybe expanding on the idea above by having NORMAL or CORE printed at the top of the tracking sheets for GMs would be a good idea.
GM Stars might relate to Tiered table assignments, thus Tier 10-11 get 5 & 4 star GMs, Tier 5-9 get 4 & 3 star, etc... it might help with the level of rule knowledge. I don't know if you already do that.... This ^ I GM'd Confirmation as many times as I could, and honestly I prefer lower tier scenarios for the chance to interact with the new people and hopefully keep them interested in PFS. Also on that note, our Confirmation / Wounded Wisp GMs seem to have been well prepared and ready for new players, so props to those people. Maybe something like... proof of attending a GM 101 - 201 wouldn't be a bad idea to ensure quality GMing :P
On that idea, would it be possible to get a screen or two on the opposite wall? For those groups in the blue corner, the screens were pretty much impossible to see. I think projector placement at the top of the ballroom makes that not an option, but instead of a back wall maybe some portable projectors/screens set up along the edges of the room?
I said it before and I'll say it again - Having overseer text on the projectors for the specials was fantastic. It did get out of sync with the actual reading sometimes though, so that may be something we can tighten up. One thing that might help for managing the projectors is a staging monitor that can be used to preview the next bit of content that is going to be shown on the big screens. This would prevent things like seeing the desktop when switching presentations around.
Hi Rhett! We do indeed have Pathfinder Society games going on here in Fort Wayne. As William posted above our warhorn is a great place to look to see what games are going on, and you will want to check out our facebook page here: Pathfinder Society of North East Indiana Even if you are looking for some non-society Pathfinder I would still encourage you to have a look at the facebook page. We have a good group of people, and someone may be interested or know someone else who is. Feel free to PM or email with any questions! -Emery
We also have the Fort Wayne facebook and warhorn set up as "Northern Indiana" ... and have links to Lightspeed and Griffon on the warhorn
I want to start by saying that I did do some research, but I couldn't find anything that answers my questions that would apply specifically to PFS. So I am sitting down to make a Samsaran, and the boon does say that this race is playable as if it was in the Additional Resources list. However, my first question is - Does this also includes the alternate racial traits, i.e. mystic past life? If mystic past life is in fact allowed: - The mystic past life has to be a single class
Like I said, I tried looking for some answers but my search-fu is weak :( if anyone has a link to some more information I would be grateful. -Emery
This year was my first time GMing at GenCon, but I will say that I was appreciative and thoroughly impressed at the organization and all around helpful attitude of my fellow GMs and HQ people. I was also blessed by having great players at all my tables, and it made the whole experience a very good one. That said, a few thoughts: The Good - I really liked having the players bring me the packet of chronicles and tracking sheets, and it may seem like a little thing but the paperclip that held it all together came in very handy when gathering and keeping track of the tickets. The Bad - I know we had "how to muster" signs posted around the place, but I still heard some complaints from inexperienced con-goers that it was a confusing process. Probably not much to be done here, as mustering is chaotic by nature and I think our marshals did a heck of a job herding the cats. Maybe a how to muster class like GM101? :P The Ugly - The Paths We Choose.... Nothing against the scenario itself, but it wasn't entirely clear how the "special" portion of this was going to work ahead of time. I spent the first 20 minutes standing at my table waiting for some kind of introduction from HQ before starting and hoping I wasn't skipping ahead. Also there was quite a bit of confusion around what to report and when, and what the display was even showing. By the time the slot ended and the announcement was made concerning the results, my table was all up and gone. All in all a great experience, looking forward to Season 6 :) -Emery
Is it just me, or did a lot of people show up to Bonekeep with only pregens? From what I gathered from the folks I talked to, the general feeling was that BK3 was easier than 1 and 2
Nope it can be any skill, however any ranks you gain won't stack with any ranks you already have and you don't gain extra ranks per level for having an increased intelligence score. So for example, if you have 3 ranks in Acrobatics at 5th level, and decide that your headband will have Acrobatics as the skill - your Acrobatics becomes 5 not 8.
I'm reading:
Seems to me that this only allows for up to natural reach to be doubled, and anything on top (Aberrant bloodline, lunge feat) would be added after the fact. Same goes for longer reach weapons such as the whip. Example:
Even though the whip has a 15' reach, it ends up with the same reach as a polearm in the hands of a large creature. I would love it if I could have a 50' reach (large whip wielding aberrant lunging bloodrager), but I'm not sure things stack like that?
Is it the intent that Abnormal Reach would be multiplied as if it were natural reach, or would it be added on at the end since it is only in effect during a bloodrage, and bloodrage is a supernatural power? +05 Natural reach

There lies a village 50 miles away from the capital city of the Naxos province. Clustered in the center of town are wooden buildings with thatched roofs. A small courthouse/jailhouse is the largest building. It sits at the focus of a circle clearing that houses the Markets every other day and twice on the week-ends.

All these campeigns are too big and too slow. On phone, no spell check. Big fan of grammer, not on this post, though. I work Mon-Fri, on the computer. Free time. This will be fast paced and low power. Characters will be Lvl 1 NPC classes. Core races. No traits. 17 point buy. Must have way of life skills (profession farming, sailing, or some kind of craft). Not evil. The classes you level in depend on how you play your character. World: Empire of Attica. I'll post map later. Government crafted around Roman fasion. 
I don't know where to look for creating a pathfinder society character. I went to The PFS create a character and got to the creating part. But, where is the link to how to make the character? Such as, restricted classes, point buy amount, restricted races, starting gear, and so on.
Sorry, I opened the Discussion of the other one. Forgot to open this one. The Imp and the Dragon can take their time and jump in whenever they are ready.
A rainy day. Quite. The public house crying out in creaks, as it claws at the cliff's edge. A large hole in its side allowed a bay-side view. It would be beautiful, were it not for the ominous clouds. The constantly shifting winds would occasionally brush in rain on the tables. Despite the wood rot and the distance from any safety from town, the bar did quite well. This was impart to the bald, old barkeep. Human-looking, he had n long beard that touched the ground. He named his tavern "The Shield Dragon," and that seamed to keep the trouble makers at bay. "What'll it be?" The sultry waitress asked, as she strode over to our hero's table.
The Gameplay tab in the old thread was not responding correctly. I think I know why. The easiest way to fix it is to just make a new thread.
I am new to DMing on forums. If I just start a Gameplay thread, how does that work? How does it know who the players are? Do I enter that somewhere? Or Should I just have faith and start a gameplay thread?
This is the first time I am going to try and GM in a PbP. I am looking for some real life xp. To make it short, I will be styling plot like Adventure time episode. This is to keep it fun, and easy, and the players can make up whatever they want. I have Game Mastered sessions like this before, but never on PbP. I work Mon-Fri, and a lot of computer time. So, I can slip in some GMing pretty easily. It is taking too long for other PbP to start. So, I thought I would take initiative. Characters: Come up with whatever craziness that you can come up with. But, you have to have some strong reason to adventure. Not revenge or anything, but like Finn and Jake(Jake really does it because Finn does it. Finn does it because he is SUPER LG!), they have to have drive. We also will just assume that the PCs will know each other and adventure all the time.
Level 6 or CR 4, or whatever you want. We'll make it work.
I don't quite understand how to use table 12-3: CR Equivalencies in the CRB. In the example below it, they don't seem to adjust the CR based on the quantity. So, when and how do I use it? |
