Yesterday I did my first GM gig for PFS. I had a table of seven, and four of them were playing PFS for the very first time.
I was really happy that:
a) no one died
b) everyone had a good time
c) they were all playing classes I had read through, and for which I knew the crunch, so that I could give them the fluff!
I was also incredibly grateful to whatever genius or set of geniuses started the PFS Gm Prep site -- Thank you, thank you, whoever you are. Pulling the spells and statblocks together saved me a ton of work. If you're reading this, thank you again!
We were playing one of those scenarios which were full of Mites.
The Mites had as standard tactics casting doom on PCs as they entered the room. The little guys were nothing if not consistent.
I thought... Okay if it's going to happen every time, I might as well liven it up a bit.
"You see some more mites."
"DOOOOOOOM! DOOOOOOOOOM!"
It got to the point where all the party would shout "DOOOOOOOOM!" and raise their hands high over their heads in jazz hands every time I uttered the sentence, "You see some mites."
It helped that the Mites's DC was laughably low -- a DC 10 -- so not that scary a threat, even at first level.
Hmm

I GMed this past Friday, and I FINALLY got to play around with Grandmaster Torch and his magnificent bathtub!
And many lulz were had!
Making people laugh and have a good time is the best!!!
For me, Grandmaster Torch is always Hedonism Bot from Futurama. Probably because of the bathtub.
And I throw in one of my favorite NPC descriptions in Scars of the Third Crusade.
"He retired from the crusades and tried to settle to down to a quite life of farming. But all the townspeople said 'Hey! You have class levels! You should be mayor!'"

Just looked a that block. Looks like I posted the incomplete one. Now the better one is up. Sorry if you use mine and it screwed you up at all. I get to use it next week. I will be adding in the DOOM!
Kana, if you were the person who put together the blocks for that adventure, I am still incredibly grateful. You saved me an absolutely ridiculous amount of prep work.
Though I still had plenty. It took well over two hours just to draw the map of that enormous complex, and I had to borrow my boyfriend's gigantic Chessex mat to fit it all in.
By all means, DOOM away! Don't forget the jazz hands and high pitched spooky voices, either.
Hmm
