The Future of PFS at The Wizard's Chest

Post by CDragos » Tue Mar 26, 2019 5:55 pm

*IMPORTANT*

I would like need to know what type of scenarios, modules, versions of the game, and a couple other things you all would like to participate in at The Wizard's Chest starting this summer 2019. This is really important for me to know so that PFS doesn't get canceled at The WC.

1) Standard PFS scenarios (any season).
2) Core mode scenarios (seasons 0-5).
3) PFS sanctioned 32 page modules (split into two 4 hour sessions).
4) PFS sanctioned 64 page modules (split into four to five 4 hour sessions).
5) Second Edition PFS starting in August 2019.
6) Starfinder Society.
7) Playing on 1st & 3rd Mondays of each month.
8.) Playing at The Tabletop Tap on Sundays, 1-5pm (near S. Broadway & Hampden in downtown Englewood).

Post your suggestions, comments, & whatever pertaining to the above list.

How about starting off with year 6 mods and work our way through those and continue through the years.

I'm willing to do that. I did a bunch of season 4 over several months and then a bunch of season 5 over several months. Standard and Core. That was back when Colin, Mary, and Tim were regular players so we did have full tables back then.

Keep those suggestions coming.

Edit: @Kevin, do you mean season 6 scenarios? A mod/module only comes out once every few months but there are many good PFS sanctioned ones for various levels. I'm just unsure of which "mods" came out in season 6.

Edit #2: We did several Season 6 scenarios in April, May, and June of 2018.

Amy and I would be interested in the 1st or 3rd monday option. making weekend scenarios can be difficult for us, but WC is close to our office so a 6pm monday would be awesome.

Hmm. One Sunday and one or two Mondays (first Sunday and third Monday of each month?) might be feasible. I can do both. Let's see what others have to say.

We also need GMs! After 10 years of PFS along with 40 years of D&D, I'm getting close to GM Burnout.

It looks like CollectorMania does PFS on 2nd & 4th Tuesdays of each month, however, please correct me if I'm wrong. So, since I have been doing 1st & 3rd Sundays, I might change it to 1st & 3rd Mondays. I sent an email to the Games Manager at WC to see if there is a table for us on those Mondays. -preferably the big wooden one downstairs in the back.

Mondays were a good night at both EG Highlands Ranch and Bonnie Brae in Englewood a few years ago. I'm very much willing to switch to Mondays.

Hi Christian,
Just for reference here is the current schedule at Collectormania starting in April.

Every Tuesday, alternating Pathfinder and Starfinder each week.
2nd and 4th Saturdays are Pathfinder
3rd Saturday is Starfinder.

FYI the Saturdays for April are off due to big Warhammer 40k and Magic the Gathering events.

Unfortunately, I really don't have a consistent schedule, otherwise I do tend to GM. When I am in town, the first thing I look for is 7-11 PFS, followed by 5-9. I have no interest in PFS 2.0 or Starfinder. If I had a schedule at all, I have several modules that I'd like to run as well.

1) Standard PFS scenarios (any season).

I prefer standard PFS scenarios

2) Core mode scenarios (seasons 0-5).

I will play these as an options since I have both core and standard characters

3) PFS sanctioned 32 page modules (split into two 4 hour sessions).

These have been fun in the past

4) PFS sanctioned 64 page modules (split into four to five 4 hour sessions).

I probably will not participate in another one of these. The current one, Plunder and Perils has run over the course of 3 months and needs another 3 sessions.

5) Second Edition PFS starting in August 2019.

I am extremely excited to play 2nd edition PFS starting in August 2019. I will play these session in preference to the PFS 1st sessions.

6) Starfinder Society.

Not interested at all. I work with computers so perfer fantasy to science fantasy.

7) Playing on 1st & 3rd Mondays of each month.

I will change from 1st & 3rd Sundays to 1st and 3rd Monday if we have no other choice.

8.) Playing at The Tabletop Tap on Sundays, 1-5pm (near S. Broadway & Hampden in downtown Englewood).

Since I live in Thornton I would prefer to stay at the Wizards Chest. I can adapt if necessary.

Awesome, Ken! Keep an eye out for the May sign up post. There will be at least one beginner friendly low level game that month. Tier 1-2 or tier 1-5 to be more precise.

Ken, are you interested in doing CORE mode PFS at all?

I’d encourage all store organizers to keep to a schedule and get your GM/player signups posted at a set time and early. I found it frustrating to keep checking the web page expecting things to be posted only to have the schedule go up a few days before the game was supposed to go off. This is hard for experienced gamers and impossible for new players as they have no idea what to expect. I really feel this is very important for keeping and attracting new players. Even though I’m not playing I’d be bummed to see pfs peter out.

As soon as I hear back from one of the WC managers about whether or not we can do Mondays, I will post May's schedule.
