Were those of us who GMed at PaizoCon supposed to get a GM boon?
If so, how many games was the threshold for the boon?
I GMed two games. I did get the "Volunteer" shirts, but I didn't pick up any boons; it didn't occur to me to ask for them.
If I was supposed to get one... is it too late now? (No biggie if so, but I figured it couldn't hurt to ask.)

Tier 3 GM Volunteers: This is the minimum volunteer level. Tier 3 GMs must volunteer for a MINIMUM of 2 slots. Tier 3 GMs receive:
A $10-per-slot voucher for Paizo.com credit, useable at the show or anytime after, including subscriptions.
A FREE PFS goblin volunteer t-shirt.
A special Pathfinder Society GM boon available only at PaizoCon.
Squeaky wheels get the boon. At a local con the organizer might have time to talk to all the volunteers and make sure they received everything they were entitled to. At a con the size of PaizoCon, you have got to speak up or you won't be recognized.

Heh... I didn't get my Paizo.com credit either. I guess I should have read up on what I was supposed to ask for before I got there.
Mike? Anybody from Paizo? Any chance of getting the boon or the credit now, or is it too late?
Just email Master Brock, he shall take care of it. I know mine was missing two and I was a Tier 2 GM. He got back to me this morning and they are working on it now.
I won't lie however, not a big fan of the GM boon this year. But the shirts, other free swag, and having the best time ever, totally made up for the boon. I can earn sexier boons at another time.

I only got mine on Saturday or Sunday because one of the volunteers asked if I had gotten it. I'm sorry I didn't think to ask you if you had gotten yours. :( But I still haven't gotten my store credit either to my knowledge, so we're in the same boat there.

Out of curiosity for those of us who couldn't go, what WAS the GM boon this year?

Boon Text
"You have spent enough time in Osirion that it is now like a second home. You gain an additional trait from page 30-31 of the Pathfinder player Companion: People of the sands. Write the Selected trait on the Line below . Include this Chronicle sheet along with your Records for the Character who gains this Boon.
Instead of increasing the selling price of Relics from Ancient Osirion, The Forign Opportunist Trait grants you a +5 bonus on Day job checks made during any scenario that has 1 or more encounters that take place in Osirion"
Note that pg. 30-31 are Campaign traits ... and the best one IMHO is one that gives you a +1 disable device/ makes it a class skill and you gain trapfinding like a rogue

Ophelia I Initially wasn't a fan of it either ... then I realized what that boon actually grants ... Page 30-31 in People of the sands are Campaign traits for mummy's mask I foresee a Lot of trap finders in the near future
Don't get me wrong, it's nice. Just not a "PaizoCon Exclusive" boon to me. But it's all good, like I stated before, I got way more out of it to make the trek up there worth it.

Yeah, I'd completely forgotten that I got boons or a store credit (obviously). I did ask for the shirt, and got that. Mostly I was doing it because, surprise surprise, I find GMing fun.
What kind of weirdo are you? People GM for profit and boons only. Nobody actually does it because they like it. That's the craziest f***in' thing I've ever heard!
:)

Yeah, no one would be crazy enough to volunteer to GM a PaizoCon special cold for their first PFS GM experience and enjoy it!

Sylph ninja here I come!

There's the everyone-gets-this $10 thanks for PaizoConning gift certificate; GMs also get $10 credit per slot at PaizoCon and GenCon.
I suspect it's the latter which is glitching - mgcady was having a similar problem. Email customer service, sm or Sharaya or someone will look into it, I'm sure.
+1 this.
But I lost my $10 gift certificate for coming. Boo.

It should be attached to your account. I know that I didn't have a packet, but I went to the store and they knew I had $60 to spend.

This is where everyone differs. I would take that over a race boon any day. Hoping I'll be able to trade off my GenCon boon for trait and/or flavor boons.
