In order to determine the best timeslots to run something, I would appreciate it if I could get some feedback when people would be available - as soon as possible. Unfortunately there are only around 24 hours between slots/tables being released and GM signups.

GM signups are on a first-come, first-serve basis, so the faster I get responses, the more scenarios are still available to choose from.

Once I've narrowed down timeslots/systems, I'll have a look at possible scenarios/quests (if they are still available). If you have a pfstracker page please also note that down (+ Paizo Organized Play # if I don't already have it). If you have specific request be sure to note them down but I can't guarantee I'll be able to take them into account, in particular due to the short timeframe.

Timeslots:

SLOT 2: Thursday 6 PM UTC (2 PM EST) (7/30/2020)

SLOT 5: Friday 6 PM UTC (2 PM EST) (7/31/2020) [SFS special timeslot]

I would definitely want to play the Specials.
I will probably be available for all your chosen slots except maybe Thursday.

As for Scenarios:
Starfinder: I can play any repeatables, any season 3 scenarios I haven't played by then, plus anything I'm willing and able to spend a replay for.
Pathfinder: Any repeatables, plus 1-19 and anything after that (except anything I have already played by then)

I'd be interested in the daytime slots 7 + 10.

That's too far away. I have no idea where my characters will be at that time.

I'd be available slot 7 onwards of your listed.

Any preferences on tiers for the two specials?

Any preferences on tiers for the two specials?

For Starfinder, I probably have characters for any tier. Pathfinder would depend on what I get to play until then. Right now, my highest PFS2 character is level 5, but could potentially be 6 or 7 by then.

Currently scheduled:

SLOT 2: Thursday 6 PM UTC (2 PM EST) (7/30/2020) PFS2 1-19 Iolite Squad Alpha (3-6)

SLOT 5: Friday 6 PM UTC (2 PM EST) (7/31/2020) SF 3-00 The Last Bite (1-2)

SLOT 8: Saturday 6 PM UTC (2 PM EST) (8/1/2020) PF2 2-00 The King in Thorns (3-6)

SLOT 10: Sunday 1 PM (9AM EST) (8/2/2020) SFS 2-12 Colossus Heist (7-10)

SLOT 11: Sunday 7 PM UTC (3 PM EST) (8/2/2020) SFS 2-13 Storm of the End Times (1-4)

To a limited degree, I might be able to switch things around a tiny bit.

Most notably, I could switch the SFS special to 3-4 or 5-6 if there is enough interest in these tiers, so please let me know.

Gen Con just announced more information.


Registration for Gaming and Events at Gen Con Online

Gen Con Online Event Registration is coming up on July 13. Below, you'll find details on how registration and events will work!

Get your badge

Badge Registration for Gen Con Online is now open! Registration is free, and allows you to participate in scheduled events during the convention.To register, create an account or log in to your existing account on our website, accept the Terms of Service, then click the Get A Badge button on the left-hand side of the page. Once there, one more click is all it takes to add a Full Access badge to your account for Gen Con Online!

Check out the Event Catalog starting July 6

On July 6, we'll open up access to the Event Catalog on our website for you to browse events and start planning out which ones you'd like to register for!

Add event tickets to your schedule starting July 13

Events for Gen Con Online will be scheduled using our event ticketing system, just like for Gen Con in Indianapolis. Your ticket for each event you register for will be added to your account, and your GM or event organizer will electronically collect your ticket at the event. All tickets for

Gen Con Online will be electronic, no paper tickets will be mailed.

Tickets to most events will cost a flat rate of $2 regardless of length, though some event organizers will set a higher price to cover their production costs, and some events will be free!

A portion of each event ticket sold will be donated to I Need Diverse Games!

Prepare to play!

Events will be run using a variety of third-party platforms, chosen by each individual event organizer. If you're interested in an event, check the Platform section of the event description for the platform being used. For example, if you sign up for an RPG session and the GM says they'll be using Roll20, you'll need to make sure you've made an account and familiarized yourself with that system to prepare for the game. Registered players will receive the direct link and communicate with the GM through our new Event Messaging tool prior to the start of the event.

Stay tuned to our website and this newsletter for more announcements coming soon!

Please note that generally there will be a 2 USD fee per game (to be clear: paid to Gen Con). Whether that also applies to Paizo Gen Con games remains to be seen. Currently similarly unclear is what payment options would be available.

Paizo statement:


Our scenarios will price at $2.00/game per Gen Con base price. Quests/Bounties will be $0.00 as with physical demo tables. PACS will be $1.00/block as they are only 2-hour games. Specials will still be $2.00 in recognition of the economic difficulties our fans are currently under.


Gen Con statement:


Payment
We accept Visa, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express as payment. Cash is accepted for on-site purchases only. Checks and money orders are not accepted at any time. A 10% admissions tax will be charged on all online and on-site badge purchases, in compliance with Marion County laws.

It's up to the moderators whether that means the thread should be moved to the PAID section.

2 spaces open is slot 10 and slot 11, the rest of the games are currently full. There is always the chance of people dropping out once they realize we are using FG though.
