FG Con 12 PFS / SFS GM Muster

**KevenSimmons** · March 3rd, 2018, 12:49

Opening a thread for GMs to discuss their plans for Pathfinder Society / Starfinder Society games during FG Con 12.

I will be running at least one PFS table - maybe two (one higher tier, one lower)

Also - VC Jesse Davis sent out an email yesterday to previous FG Con GM's with logistics information, but I've seen email spam filters flag messages he sends via his pathfindersocietyonline.com email address - so check your Junk/Spam folder if you don't see an email from him in your inbox.

I was thinking of running a session or two. Likely SF if I can find the time to do modules before then

**Talen** · March 3rd, 2018, 18:51

At minimum, I will run SFS 1-09 Live Exploration Extreme! for Starfinder Society. (tier 1-4, no ship combat)

Since there has been announcement they want to try out Discord this time, does anyone know whether using Discord will be mandatory? I don't think I will run anything using Discord, because my connection to Discord tends to be too bad to do the amount of talking a GM has to do.

Sorry but it is mandatory. Any voice comms for FG Con must use the specific FG Discord server. There would be too much confusion and gnashing of teeth if people start spreading out over other servers or technologies. Sorry, but we don't make any exceptions, for whatever reason. If one person runs somewhere else, then lots will want to.

Is there anything anyone can help with to test this out and get it working reliably for you?

I don't think there is. I played several games using Discord, and for some reason, it just stops sending what I say at random times. It's not that much of a problem when I'm a player, although annoying, but I can still listen to everyone and have to disconnect and reconnect sometimes. But if I want to run something, especially in a tight time-slot, that would slow things down too much.
Maybe I'll think about buying a new mobile device (either tablet or phone) and try running Discord there.

If you're using Discord via the web browser, then try downloading and installing the client. When I first used Discord via the web browser, the sound quality was absolutely awful. But someone suggested I install the Discord client and after trying that, I've had no problem. For me, the sound quality of TeamSpeak and Discord are now the same.

**Malkavian_Andi** · March 4th, 2018, 18:39

I tried installing the client, a few times actually, but that doesn't work for some reason.
As I mentioned, if I happen to buy a new mobile device, I'll try installing there, maybe that works.

I'm considering running AP1 in a one day session on Sunday.
