Announcing Play-by-Post Gameday VII, starting August 13, 2018!!

[GM bigboom]

Game #58, SFS 1-10 The Half-Alive Streets is now full

[Kate Baker]

Lottery resolved, and my players for #9-24: Beneath Unbroken Waves at Gameday are PJP, I'm Hiding in Your Closet, Andreww, Z. D., Greymore, and Chester Copperpot. I appreciate how many people wanted to play, and I'll certainly try to run it again sometime!

Table 94 is full!

[EM±GM]

Hrmm... I somehow managed to get a double submission on one of my sessions for part 2.

Could someone please remove either 117 or 118. There is only supposed to be one of them!

[GM Baerlie]

#83 is full!

[The World's Most Interesting GM]

Session 66, Overflow Archives [06-15] is full.

[Andrew Harasty]

Just to put it out there. is there any chance of a tier 5-6 table being added for the Starfinder Special?

[Hmm]

There is one 5-6 table currently (the one I’m running.) Did you see it, or are you worried that it will fill up before you can get there?

EDIT: You’re one of our GMs and already on the sheet. Okay... Did you see that the 5-6 table that is already there? It’s the next column over. With that table starting to fill with GMs before we open, we likely need another 5-6 table. So, thanks for the question — this is something for us to look at!

EDIT 2: We just activated a new 5-6 table under GM Silbeg and seated you there. I took your Solarian from the waitlist, and removed your 3-4 table reservation.

EDIT 3: Everyone, this is an example in microcosm of how the whole waiting list thing will work after July 1st. We have several GMs who agreed to be on ‘standby’ as overflow GMs and we’ll activate their tables based on demand from the waiting lists after the Special opens. Our goal is to get as many people seated as we possibly can!

Hmm

[Charli Poshkettle]

Andrew, I just realized that I played in the Dire GM’s Commencement with your character, Dart! Dart was a wonderful teammate! It’s so nice to see that Dart’s now up now at Tier 5-6 like me!

[Dart Handman]

The fabulous Tea Merchant. And I am all out of Akiton Red!

Next time I will look for the scroll at the bottom of the page. Now Time to go back to the Stars and save our Companions of the Society!

[Charli Poshkettle]

I’ll try to get you a fresh supply of Akiton Red at some point! It’s been too long since we played together!

[GM Ewok]

Oh, no! I did a bad thing! Can you please change the following session to the second half of Gameday, starting on October 1st?

Session 112, Duskmire Accord 9 by GM Ewok.

[Hmm]

Ewok, it’s in the List of Tables we need to fix. Thank you!

By the way all, keep those questions coming. We’re aiming to be as transparent about how we run things here as we possibly can!

Hmm

Hmm

Can you be more specific? Should I plan on a late night or an early morning? (I'm on the east coast of the US).

[Ietsuna]

Table 61, my core Library of the Lion is full. If you could mark it full that would be great. Thanks in advance.

[GM Blake]

My session 85 is now full.

[Hmm]

Alright, I’ll be more specific. With this being an international convention, I intend to open up signups around midnight GMT on July 1st (aka 7:00 Central Standard Time on June 30th my time.)

Now... I want you guys to promise me you won’t be mad at me if I am a few minutes late. I’ll be in gaming when midnight GMT comes around. I do not promise to be EXACTLY on midnight GMT, but I’ll try to be close.

More Scenarios Added to PBP Gameday Selections

Hey GMs —

Jesse added the following scenarios in today:

Pathfinder Society Scenario #10-01: Oathbreakers Die (Tier 1-5)
Pathfinder Society Scenario #10-02: Bones of Biting Ants (Tier 3-7)
Pathfinder Society Scenario #10-03: Death On The Ice (Tier 5-9)

Also:

FPSP2 - Raiders of Shrieking Peak - Level 5
PFSP3 - Arclord's Envy - Level 5

Hmm

[GM Eclipse]

Two problems that I may need help with. My games are session 126 and 128.

Apparently when I put in GM Eclipse on the form it links it to another profile.

Also on session 128 I left a letter off of the e-mail.

[Redelia]

Send me the proper email address by Private Message, OK, GM Eclipse?

I'll then put those problems on the queue to be fixed.

[LoreMaster GM]

Thanks for the time! That would of been confusing since that is actually the 29th for me. Once again, thank you for all the hardwork on organizing this!

[GM West]

Looks like we report this here:

Game #60 - 8-22: Wrath of the Fleshwarped Queen [1-5] is FULL.

On another note, I've only got one player expressing interest in my Temple of Empyreal Enlightenment [1-5] on August 13, and also very few for my second game day scenarios. Should I advertise somewhere? Or should I continue to be patient and follow the philosophy espoused in Field of Dreams. "If you build it, they will come..."?

[EvilMinion]

It's a month and a half away... I'd go with 'be patient' =)

Once July 1 hits, and sign ups open up a bit more, there will likely be more interest as well.

[GM West]

Good to know, thanks!

[Hmm]

July 1st is when signups will go crazy because that’s when we’ll lift the ‘no more than 3 games’ restriction. I deliberately put an initial limit here to so that we had games for new people to signup for! If you want to advertise your game, you can always set up a recruitment thread or announce it in Flaxseed as well.

(My very first Play-by-Post gameday recruitment took a week to fill. And it turned into a great game with great people — a mix of PFS veterans and excited newbies.)

I hope your game fills with wonderful people, West!

Hmm

[EM±GM]

Sessions 119 (1-29 The Devil We Know- Part I: Shipyard Rats [1-7]) and 120 (1-30 The Devil We Know - Part II: Cassomir's Locker [1-7]) are both now Full!

[GM Eclipse]

Thank you for the help Redelia.

Can session 128 be marked full please.

[GM Ladile]

Please mark Table #108 The Twisted Circle as full! :)

[GM Ladile]

Oh! And please mark Table #121: The Golemworks Incident as full also - thank you :)

[Revvy Bitterleaf]

I have 2 questions;

I was wondering if there is some conformation when you sign(ed) up to run a special?.

I signed up wanting to run the SFS one and now I'm not sure if something went wrong with my sign-up or if I'm (not) needed to GM.

Also, I can't find if this has been brought up before but;

The Skitter Shot Chronicle mentions:
-your GM or event organizer should stamp, sign, or otherwise mark off one of the boxes below.
As well as:
-3 boxes for GMing at an event that received Paizo Event Support

Does this mean that we should contact one of the Venture people after each game we GM-ed and have them (electronically) stamp/sign /mark the chronicle? If so, how would be the best way to go about this?

[GM Lupulus]

My Table #33: 7-05 School of Spirits is full

[Qstor]

Can you mark 5-06 You Have What You Hold as full please :)

Since the wording on the boon says that your GM may check it off, please treat this like Faction Card check marks, i.e. ask your GM in discussion for permission and how many boxes, and then check the appropriate box(es) yourself.

We would suggest that you also keep a list for yourself of the scenario name, date, and number of boxes so that you don't take credit for the same scenario more than once. If you keep paper records, the back of the boon would be ideal; if you use electronic copies, a simple text document kept with the boon would work well.

[Shaudius]

Table 70: Dreaming of the Future is full.

[Redelia]

I didn't completely answer Revy Bitterleaf's question above. If you are the GM for an adventure, you may mark off the boxes yourself, just like you would if you were an in person GM. When you GM an adventure, you are 'your GM' in terms of things like this.

Thank you for your answer.

[Paladin of Baha-who?]

Hi, I just realized session 96 is incorrectly stated as starting on the 13th of August instead of the 1st of October on the Session List. Could that be fixed, please?

I don't know if one of the overseers answered you directly about your case, but we did receive confirmation. Check your spam filter, maybe?

[GM Blake]

My session 86 is now full.

Email was sent Revvy. It might be in your spam folder :) Let me know if you can't find it.

[GM Valen]

The link to my posted GD7 Game (109) is "broken". It should lead
here.

Or if it easier to cut-and-paste, the link is:

url=http://paizo.com/campaigns/PbPGamedayVIISFS103GMValensYesteryearsTruth/ recruiting&page=last

[Redelia]

I've put together a list of all the requests for tables to be marked full or corrections to be made up to this point. It may take a bit of time, but they will be taken care of.

I've got it now, thanks for the reply

[GM Elinnea]

#125, Rose Street Revenge, is now full.

[GM kuey]

I updated via email but it is still marked as open seats, so doing it here instead. My following tables are full:

21 GMkuey Starfinder 1-12: Ashes of Discovery [1-4]

87 GMkuey 8-16: House of Harmonious Wisdom [1-5]

[Klysk]

I am wishing to sign up to play in the SFS special, but the character I wish to sign up with is at a different level now than when the game day will start. Should I sign them at the level that they are at now, or what level they will be at the start? It would determine which tier they will play in.

The level that they will be when the special starts. Keep in mind though that if that character is locked in a game still that they won't be able to play in the Special.

Ok, thanks for answering! (I am not very experienced with pbp organized play)

[The World's Most Interesting GM]

Sessions 66 Overflow Archives and 68 Out of Anarchy are both full now aside from their Wait lists.

Just a thought, but it might become important to note that wait lists are available especially when months from now when these games get underway some people discover they can't play for one reason or another.

[Hmm]

Hey Gang —

I am sick right now, so I have asked Redelia to be in charge of opening the special up at GMT Midnight.

Hmm

[Redelia]

Hi, everyone. I have two announcements to make.

Signup for the Specials is now open.

You can sign up here. Please notice the restrictions; a player can only be a player in one of the RPG specials during each session. This means that you cannot play in both Solstice Scar C and the Starfinder Special. The Overseers and Venture Officers reserve the right to remove either or both entries for players who violate this rule.

The cap on normal Gameday games per player has now been lifted.
You may now sign up for more than three games. We do request that you be mindful of how many games you can handle.
