I have several questions about how to give credit to PFS characters for playing the Anniversary Edition of Runelords.
1. Burnt Offerings is for character levels 3-5, and The Skinsaw Murders is for character levels 4-6. My group is playing the AP with home characters. According to the document, they can recieve credit for their PFS characters as soon as they reach the level of the pre-generated character they played. If they use home campaign characters, they recieve credit as if they had played a pre-gen. Since the pre-gens are levels 1, 4, or 7, it seems like they would get credit when their character reaches level 4. The problem is this - each chronicle gives the pc 3 xp - so after recieving the Burnt Offerings chronicle, they would level up from 4 to 5.... does this mean that they now can not recieve the Skinsaw Murders chronicle? Or can the players recieve both chronicles?
2. The Hook Mountain Massacre is for character levels 8-10. There are no pre-generated characters above level 7. Can my players recieve credit for their PFS characters once those characters reach level 8? Or can I not give them credit for the Hook Mountain Massacre (and later adventures) unless they actually use PFS characters for the adventure?
3. Whether or not my players can get credit for The Hook Mountain Massacre, can I apply my dm credit for the adventure to a character that is the appropriate level (I am guessing this is level 8-10)?

If you're playing RotR as a home campaign, then the chronicle sheets given to the players work exactly like GM credit . The non-PFS PC they're using in your campaign is effectively the pregen, as far as PFS rules go.
1. When the players receive the chronicle sheet for Burnt Offerings, they may apply it immediately to a level 3-5 PFS PC, or assign it to a level 1-2 PC, holding it to be applied once the PC reaches 3rd level.
Similarly, when the players receive the chronicle sheet for the Skinsaw Murders, they may apply it immediately to a level 4-6 PFS PC, or assign it to a level 1-3 PC, holding it to be applied once the PC reaches 4th level.
What this means is that if you have a 2nd-level PFS PC, you can assign both of those chronicles to that character, then when the PC reaches 3rd level through normal PFS play, he immediately jumps up to 5th level (as both chronicles will be triggered for application in turn).
2. Yes, this works the same as above. Assign immediately to a level 8-10 PC, or assign to a level 1-7 PC to be applied once they reach 8th level.
3. Yes. In fact, this works exactly the same as point 2 above.
