GM Call for Enchanted Realms for March
Posted: Tue Feb 23, 2016 6:44 pm
Greetings Pathfinders!!!
It's that time of the month again... Time for brave souls to volunteer to GM for the month of March. The Year of the Serpent is going strong and in this month, a young Pathfinder's thoughts turn to love... of adventure!
Now, some of you might be asking, "But Randy, what are the benefits of GMing?" I'm glad you asked!
First of all, you get to help make sure that everyone in this wonderful little community of ours has a lot of fun. While I realize that this is more than enough of a benefit for most of you, on the more tangible front, anyone that volunteers to GM automatically gets first crack at saying "I want to play in THIS game..." (Please note that the person who volunteers to GM will be able to reserve their slot now... they cannot reserve a slot for other people. If their Significant Other/child/friend wants to reserve a slot early, than they need to volunteer to GM too!) Second, you get credit applied towards your GM status. As you get additional stars on your GM status, you gain certain privileges within the Pathfinder Society including the ability to replay games that you've already played for credit! Third, all of the players donate funds to your store account to help offset some of the costs associated with preparing a game. Finally, by volunteering to GM, you get the admiration and respect of your fellow gamers. Yes, you too can have young players look up at you with awe and marvel at your massive GM skills.
If you have not GMd before, that's OK. We all had a first time and you can contact me or the other "seasoned" GMs out there for all sorts of advice. (You want to get a gamer talking? All you have to do is ask their advice about the game...)
If you would you like to GM (and in the process, reserve your slot), please post under this topic or email me at sir.gryphon1@gmail.com.
Standby GM
What is a 'Standby GM' you ask?
Well, a standby GM is the pinch hitter of Pathfinder Society. When all of the tables in a given week fill up at the last minute with unexpected (or undocumented) players and there are at least three players without a table, the Standby GM is willing to step up and run an impromptu evergreen (infinitely replayable) scenario to accommodate the extra players. I have been doing this quietly in the background, but why should I have all of the fun?
The good news is that there are only a few scenarios to choose from and you only need to prepare one of them for the whole month. Choose from 5-08: The Confirmation, 6-10: The Wounded Wisp, or 7-10: The Consortium Compact.
Of course I will do my best to ensure that there are enough tables each week to accommodate our adventurers, but having a standby GM would really help in a pinch! And if you step up as a Standby GM, I will do my best to ensure you are bribed, er, rewarded with a miniature from my collection before you run a session!
Without further ado...
