Reporting for first timer

I ran two quests last Saturday and yesterday I attempted to report it all on Paizo's database.

As I keyed in the GM#, it told me that it didn't recognize the number.

I had the understanding that I was to simply use my Pathfinder ID# that was assigned to me last year when I made my first PFS Character; which I know does exist in the database because I have had sessions successfully reported for my character(s).

What did I do wrong? and am I going to be losing out on any type of credit towards me as a GM as a result of this "cannot find" error?

Thanks

Often times when you enter your PFS number into the blank when using Internet Explorer you will get that error. Just enter you name and save the information. This is a known issue.

For the GM line make sure you put in you number XXXXX, not XXXXX-X for any character you may have.

When claiming GM credit for your character you use the XXXXX-X number.

Thank you - that makes me feel a little better. I did enter the name; so all should be well.

I used the XXXXX for the GM line.

To gain credit for my PC, I added him in as one of the characters at the session.

I think I remember that being the instructions in the HOW TO by J.Frost.

And yes, in that field, I used the XXXXX-X.

Thanks.

your golden. That's the way to do that.


When you run the end-around and just report by manually typing in your name, make sure after you report that you go back to your GM tab and verify that the session you just reported appears correctly on that tab.
