How many PFS scenarios take place in part or entirety in Absalom?
I'm not so much worried about the brief, but the adventure itself.
Trying to work out if we took all the scenarios and all the maps and laid them out, how much of the external environment (ie streetscape) city has been 'mapped' so far? I assume some scenarios would double up on locations though - probably a few squares and plazas or the like

A lot of scenarios happen in Absalom.
Several of them happen in the Blackros museum- Mists of Mwangi, Penumbral Accord, Silvermount Collection; Echoes of the Overwatched starts in the Museum but leads out the sunken ruin off the coast.
Black Waters/School of Spirits each take place in the Drowned Yard.
Kortos Envoy and Confirmation take place outside the city proper, but still on the Island itself.
Wounded Wisp has the PC's running all over the city on a fetch quest for cabbage-man, Drendel Dreng.
Lots of other scenarios, but those are the ones off the top of my head.

This should make a good starting point. From a quick glance, it does include one or two scenarios that have a short section in Absalom before taking place mostly elsewhere.

Cheers guys.
Over a few glasses of my fave Shiraz I mused over the idea of how could a scenario be run a little differently. Recent conversations with friends who between them have several laser cutter/etchers and 3d printers... and my own love of cardboard and hot glue modelling led me to an epiphany.
What if I grabbed a handful of GM's and a bunch of scenarios set in and around Absalom and ran them all concurrently, and instead of just sitting around one table, you actually moved from 3d set to 3d set of the city?
We could print up a whole bunch of the maps and put them all in some sort of geographical order in a hall or the like, and the parties would move table to table... so you'd have a whole heap of city laid out around you.
Hmmm....
Almost a 'freeform rpg' meets some kind of Convocation type deal.
I'm trying to break the 'backside welded to seat' and do something a little off the wall.
Would take a bit of effort, but I've built towns before... just not a whole bunch of city.
