Extra Reputation on GM Credit

[Iammars]

If I GM a scenario that can give extra Reputation to the players if they accomplish certain goals in that scenario, do I get access to that Reputation on my GM credit?

[Shaudius]

I'm no one special but whenever this question has come up the general consensus opinion has been that yes you do get the extra rep available in scenerios.

I don't think I'll add to the experience already present, but by my reading, the paragraph beginning "The GM can select any special boons bestowed by a chronicle sheet" doesn't explicitly cover this but uses similar language to PFS, in which I believe the GM definitely would get it.

My initial reaction was Yes! But looking closely at the Guide, I have to agree with Starglim that "Full credit" does not include bonus reputation.

I have to believe this is not intended and will be addressed in the next update.

Maybe I can cast "Summon Thurston" successfully....

Official Ruling: GMs should receive the additional reputation associated with faction-specific scenarios.

Developer Commentary: Creating additional incentive to run these scenarios is overall a net positive, as these scenarios tend to showcase a lot of major faction story arcs. I'll see about getting this update queued into the next update of the Guide (ETA: Unannounced.)

Thanks Thursty!

Before the summons runs out, can we get confirmation on one other subject?

Does the GM get to slot boons?
(In particular boons such as the Acquisitives “Known Quality” that affect downtime.)

That is something that has a lot more potential ramifications. Let me pass it by some co-workers before I go out and make a ruling.
