A Small Gift for the PFS Community

[c873788]

I'm sick and tired of confusing myself when I am trying to work out whether I have played a scenario or not before I sign up in Warhorn for our fortnightly PFS game.

To get around this problem, I have created a spreadsheet that contains EVERY scenario from Season 0 to 6 including PFS Sanctioned Modules, discontinued scenarios and Specials in one easy to read spreadsheet. This tool allows me to see, at a glance, whether I've played or GMed a scenario and thus whether I should sign up for it.

I thought I would share my hard work and I'm hoping the PFS community can benefit from what I've developed. Keep in mind that it's meant to supplement only and not replace the official recording of your scenarios for each of your Pathfinder characters. Below is the link to the spreadsheet in Google Docs. Just download it and start filling in the available entries for having Played, GM Credit, or GM Star Replay:

PFS Scenarios

Excellent, thanks. I was just about at the point where I was going to compile one of these for myself. You've got excellent timing.

You might also want to look at the GM Shared Prep website. They have a fillable 2 page PDF that has all of the scenarios, modules, APs, specials, etc. on it.

You rock OP. Thanks!

Mine has a printable page after filling it. I also keep all my PCs xp, pp, and purchases there.

Spreadsheet.XLS on google drive

This should be downloaded and used. Trying to use it in google docs will only cause confusion.

Edit: I also made a PDF for those who don't want a spreadsheet to track it. I'd encourage the spreadsheet as it makes losing the 2 page PDF sheet far less painful.

That's funny because last night, one of our players mid way through was like "I've seen this map before". And the GM was like "this is a unique map." 4 1/2 hours later when we get to the boss he realized he'd played/GM'd this scenario about 3 years ago. So he burned a star for credit.

Did you mean to link this one? Your link is the reporting form.

Sigh.

Yes, that is the one I thought that I had linked to.

Thanks.

Just curious, does anyone have one of these listings that has some notation on what scenarios are the ones that can be repeated by 1st level characters?

[Mistwalker]

Any of them that are tier 1 or tier 1-2 are repeatable

Hi Mistwalker. Thanks for sharing that link. It seems to me that the Pathfinder Society Adventure Checklist found on that link serves a different purpose.

For a start, it's very well presented, compact and looks like it would print out easily. However, it seems to be designed specifically for just one character at a time and more importantly it has no means of distinguishing between having played or GM Credit.

The idea of mine is to be able to load ALL your characters into one spreadsheet so at a glance you can quickly see whether one of your characters has played a scenario or whether I've GMed it and assigned credit to a character. That means I can easily commit to signing up for a session online through a tool such as Warhorn without racking my brains trying to remember whether I've played it or GMed it before.

If you just want something to print out and check for a specific character, then the link you provided is definitely a better choice.

Thanks. I copied the sheet and used it.

Glad you like it. But I can't take credit for it, it was simply pointed out to me one day and I thought it was very well done.

I use two of them for myself, one for player credits/played scenarios, one for GM credits. I don't have one for each character as you can only play any one scenario once per player (barring GM star replays) - I use one for all of my played games for all of characters.

I don't worry about the GM page if I am signing up to play something, just the player page.

I use a similar excel list, but it lists things for me and most of the regulars at my store, so I can make sure to schedule games where everyone gets credit. It's getting difficult to accomplish.

Thanks for this. I'll copy this to my docs and share it with my organizer so that way I don't have to keep it physically with my chronicles.

Sharing with your organizer works better when you send him one that's been filled out than when you send him a blank one.

Like I said in my email to you, I will fill it out tonight. When I make the changes on googledocs, it should update your version, too.

An online one in google docs already exists (I don't have the URL handy), which I think was made for the PFS Online Collective.

There's another one on pfrpg.com.au that can also be used to select a GM and specific players to determine the best scenario to run for that group (ie. scenarios they haven't played, scenarios the GM has/hasn't run before). You need to be registered and signed in for this one so that it knows who's who, but registering is just username, password, email, timezone.

Note that neither of these are ones you can really print out and carry with you.

I know, I'm just giving you a hard time. And making a joke about message boards.
