Conline Pathfinder Society CON

[wvpolarbear]

Hello friends. I am looking for a few good persons to help me make the best PFS Online Con ever. And I need your help. This post is primarily looking for GM Volunteers and event staff, but contains some information about how Conline will work.

Conline will be held Memorial Day Weekend, the 23rd through the 26th. Games will be run 24/4. Two specials will be offered. All times listed in here will be in EDT UTC-4. Scenarios from the Hao Jin and Lisalla storylines will be offered by the house. One month before the Con, player signups will open, as will GM registration for open games. At that time, should you want to run a game anytime that weekend, you can submit it to us and we will get it added to the event registry.

Currently, we are only seeking GM's for Roll20/G+ usage.( During open game registration, we will allow games played by Roll20/maptools/FantasyGrounds2/combatassistant.)

I need at least 5 more GM's for each special we are running.
The first is Blood Under Absalom at 5 PM EDT on Saturday 24th. The second is Race for the Runecarved Key at 5 PM EDT on Sunday 25th.

I am also looking for GM's for the following scenarios:
PFS #3-09 The Quest For Perfection Part I : The Edge of Heaven
PFS #3-11 The Quest for Perfection Part II: On Hostile Waters
PFS #3-26 Portal of the Sacred Rune
PFS #3-04 The Kortos Envoy
PFS #4-07 Severing Ties
PFS #3-13 The Quest for Perfection Part III: Defenders of Nesting Swallow
PFS #3-19 The Icebound Outpost
PFS #3-21 The Temple of Empyreal Enlightenment
PFS #3-12 Wonders in the Weave - Part I: The Dog Pharaoh's Tomb
PFS #3-14 Wonders in the Weave - Part II: Snakes in the Fold
PFS #3-20 The Rats of Round Mountain - Part I: The Sundered Path
PFS #3-22 The Rats of Round Mountain - Part II: Pagoda of the Rat
PFS #4-16 The Fabric of Reality

Please contact me via email at [e-mail] if you are interested in volunteering with the scenario/special and day/time you would like use. Please keep in mind timezone differences and daylight savings.

A website for Conline Pathfinder Society CON will be launching in the next few days, where you can find out more about the games, specials, contests, discussions, and panels being offered. Keep an eye out!

For those outside the USA - that is May 23rd - 26th, 2014

[Chimon]

Would love to GM but it's right in the middle of my final exam weeks :(

[Saint Caleth]

The specials would be a little difficult for me since I will be in an Asian time zone at the end of May and I'm not getting up at 5 even for a PFS special.

I have run Icebound Outpost before in maptool, but I could probably transfer everything over to Roll20 pretty easily.

[Dieben]

Will materials be provided for those who are interested in running a table for the special(s)?

But it's special! ;)

The VTT has been setup and copied for each GM in the past. With enough player support for the con, Paizo should be willing to provide scenario support to the GMs.

For those that care, yes I am in on this, both specials. :)

[Mike Hadfield]

I'm down for GMing Race for the Runecarved Key. Looks like fun!!

[TriOmegaZero]

It is! It's also a lot of work!

[wvpolarbear]

We are up to 36 tables. I think we will probably get scenario support. That said, I could use a few more GM's for:

Blood Under Absalom Special, 5 PM EDT Saturday 24th, 2 GMs
The Temple of the Empyreal Enlightenment
Wonders of the Weave I
Wonders of the Weave II

I am also looking for at least 3 GMs each for:
The Confirmation
First Steps Part I
We Be Goblins

And finally, we are seeking entrants for our panels. The following panels are scheduled:
Equipment and You; Gearing up in Pathfinder Society
Being a Better Player
GM101
GM201

If you have experience running a GM101 or 201 workshop, or you can submit an email showing expert level mastery of the listed panel subjects, you may be qualified to enter. Please email us at [e-mail]
The Panels will be run using Google+ Livestreamed to YouTube using Hangouts on Air.

[Sior]

I sent you an email last night with my volunteered support. Hope you got it.

Me neither, but that's because I haven't yet gone to bed.

God only knows why I say I'm willing to run in the daylight hours; I'm not typically able to be awake during those times.

[Dieben]

I have sent a volunteer email. My excitement for this con is already building.

[Avatar-1]

Wow, I was reading and thinking about this thinking that you meant 23rd-26th of THIS MONTH. Which collides with Arcanacon held locally. That's a weight off.

I think I'll be able to run most of those - a 5pm start in UTC-4 is 8am the next day in UTC+11 if I'm counting it correctly. I work weekdays 9-5. Worth mentioning is daylight savings will be over by May, so I'm also assuming we're talking UTC-5 and UTC+10.

Slots aren't required, are they, so long as they fall between those days? Assuming that's the case, I can GM any of these scenarios on the 25th 8am and/or 11pm-ish.

Any of these scenarios:

I've run these before (thus can run them better):
PFS #3-09 The Quest For Perfection Part I : The Edge of Heaven
PFS #3-11 The Quest for Perfection Part II: On Hostile Waters
PFS #3-13 The Quest for Perfection Part III: Defenders of Nesting Swallow
PFS #3-26 Portal of the Sacred Rune
PFS #3-19 The Icebound Outpost
PFS #3-21 The Temple of Empyreal Enlightenment
PFS #3-12 Wonders in the Weave - Part I: The Dog Pharaoh's Tomb
PFS #3-14 Wonders in the Weave - Part II: Snakes in the Fold
PFS #4-16 The Fabric of Reality
PFS #5 The Confirmation
PFS #3 First Steps Part I
Module We Be Goblins

I've played these but not run them (would prefer for credit, but won't be run as well as the ones above):
PFS #3-20 The Rats of Round Mountain - Part I: The Sundered Path
PFS #3-22 The Rats of Round Mountain - Part II: Pagoda of the Rat
PFS #4-07 Severing Ties

And I've never run a special before, but I've played both Blood and Race. Wouldn't mind trying.

I'm running my first ever Roll20 session today and I've had significant trouble working it all out myself, so I'll have to see how I go before I can say for sure whether I'd use Roll20 or go with CA.

[Jayson MF Kip]

I've not used roll20 as a GM, (only as a player), but I'd be willing to run a game or two if you would need it. It sounds like a blast.

Besides, it'd give me a reason to GM online more often.

Confirmation would be fine, and I'd love to run Fabric of Reality again.
