(Copied from GenCon Leads)Just over a month until The Best Four Days in Gaming!
After last week’s wall of text, we will spare you a repeat of that. Just some brief updates.
If you are GMing Starfinder, Tonya is sending out links that will get you to the NDA that must be signed to gain access to the Starfinder Core Rulebook Preview. If you have not yet received that email, watch for it. Remember, as someone under a non-disclosure agreement you are not to share the document with anyone. It was provided solely so you could learn the rules and materials in order to GM your events at Gen Con more effectively. It is very gracious of Paizo to provide this material so far in advance of the event, so please do not betray their trust.
For those who notified us that your badge is missing from your Gen Con account, we have notified Paizo. They are working on the issue. We assume that once corrected, you will receive the standard email notification from Gen Con but since that process is not 100% foolproof, please watch your account. If you have not received the badge by the end of July, send us an email and CC Tonya.
We are currently working on the roster lists so scenarios that have been published can be dropped into your account. We hope to start that process early this week, but it might take some time to get everything dropped to all GMs. Future scenarios will be dropped as they become available.
The issue of the book rewards has been settled. If you are a Tier 1, 2, or 3 volunteer your rewards include a copy of a printed product from Paizo. This year there are four options from which to choose from:
Starfinder Core Rulebook (this is the standard edition, not the limited edition)
Adventurer’s Guide
Game Mastery Guide (softcover)
Advanced Player’s Guide (softcover)
You MUST make your selection using the online google form located HERE to secure your choice. If you fail to make a selection by the deadline, it is possible Paizo will choose a random book from the list for you, or perhaps forfeit your reward. Do not let this happen to you. Please complete the form ASAP.
A lot of people ask about volunteering to help with set-up on Wednesday. Generally, tradition is people just stop by at times throughout the day and help out for as long as they want. We certainly appreciate the help, but do not have an official signup roster. If you want to help, just show up. We will be there from 8am until 5pm.
Finally, yes, we still need volunteers. Not only to fill some last slots, but also to fill in should an existing volunteer have to cancel. We have a few slots of HQ and PFS RPG to fill. At this time, Starfinder, Pathfinder Academy, and ACG events are filled. We still have a few hotel spaces remaining. If you know of anyone who may be interested in volunteering their time, please direct them to the original Call for Volunteers blog post that contains all the necessary information and to the online questionnaire located HERE.
Well, that’s enough for now. Next week we will discuss the HQ/Marshal Guidelines and directly related topics.
As always, if you have questions, comments, or concerns, please let us know
Sincerely,
Gen Con Leads
