GM Tables of credit for Adventure Paths and Modules

Silver Crusade 4/5 5/5

Question: Most modules and all Adventure paths require multiple sessions to complete (typically 3). However, when reporting it only gives GM's table of credit for running 1 session. How (if) do you get full credit for running a multi-session Adventure path?

Modules and Adventure paths automatically give GMs 2 "Table credits" instead of one. It's taken care of automatically in the system on the Paizo website, and under "Notes" in your sessions you will see: "GM ranking: +2"

Thank you for your timely and helpful response.

I had another related question to this one. I considered running a module for a group, but I wasn't clear how much XP they would get for finishing it. Also, could a player level mid-module if multiple XP's are at stake? It doesn't seem so, but I was just wondering.

P.S. - How does applying credit to one of my characters work with a module?

Please see pages 29-31 of the PFS Guide (v4.3), 'Chapter 6: Sanctioned Modules and Adventure Paths'.

Longer modules give 3 XP, 4 PP.
Short (Free RPG Day) modules give 1 XP, 1 PP.

No.

Same as a scenario: apply to any character in the correct level range immediately, or assign to a character of a lower level, then apply it immediately once they reach the module's tier range. XP and PP as above.

I am trying to report the fact that I gm'ed a homegame of burnt offerings. But it only says 2 prestige points earned, I was under the impression that adventure paths gave out 4 prestige points. Am I doing something wrong?

edit: I think I got it. Apparently adding a specific character # to the GM # screws it up. I left the -# blank, and added the full pc# below and it seemed to work

It's an oversight in the reporting system (which has been there for a long time); your paper chronicle sheet is the primary record. As long as that states 4 prestige, you're OK.

You shouldn't do this. It messes up the data gathering (boosting the average table size), and if you ever play the module, it will throw up an error when the GM/co-ordinator reports it, as it will look like you've played it twice.

The best solution is: put the GM info back in the correct place, delete the dummy entry in the player section, and wait patiently for Paizo to fix the output of the reporting system.
