Transitional Issues (awarding prestige, reporting sessions, accurately reporting GM factions)

[redcapscorner]

I have three issues that need more or less immediate reconciliation. I've looked around a little bit, but haven't found answers. My apologies in advance if these answers already exist elsewhere and I missed them.

1) The guide references a document for seasons 0-4 that spells out secondary success conditions. However, no such document exists at the given link. My store has older scenarios scheduled for tomorrow and Wednesday of this week (as well as more or less every Tuesday and Wednesday thereafter) and currently there's no official way to for players to earn their second prestige point. Help!

2) When reporting scenarios there are now four success condition boxes that can be checkmarked. I looked through the guide and found no references to these, and I don't have time to read through any of the new scenarios for context clues before tomorrow. Are these various success conditions that will be spelled out in the scenario above and beyond those tied to prestige? Do any of them need to be checkmarked for older scenarios? Help!

3) There seems to be a bug in the reporting system with respect to GM faction. The "GM Faction" dropdown is supposed to represent the faction of the character to whom the GM applied credit for that scenario. Instead, at any time after the box is auto-filled when the GM character information is entered, it changes to show the faction listed on the GM's paizo.com profile. This makes it impossible to go back and fix mistakes where either the GM accidentally reported the wrong faction on his or her sheet or had the wrong faction listed on his or her characters's profile. It also has the side effect of allowing anyone reporting a game to change the faction displayed on any other GM's paizo.com profile. This is less important in the immediate sense, but I thought it should be addressed.

Thanks!

I can at least answer #1: the document doesn't exist yet. Until it does, the instructions from John are to award one PP if the PCs earn an XP (that is, if they complete at least 3 encounters), and then award a second PP if they complete the actual scenario objective/mission.

I'm not sure how to fill these out for older scenarios, but in the new ones (well, at least in 5-01) they're a way to report decisions that the PCs made. I have a feeling they'll just be used to drive the story in later scenarios. Which is pretty awesome, I must say. :)
