No kidding! You guys really took the air out of my balloon, thinking that I was getting close to being ready to run my first PbP as GM. I apparently I still have some studying to do! Thanks for all the hard work! :D

Nope, she said it just yesterday. Don't get me wrong, I think Paizo is doing a great job too. I just fear they're recently making moves that may signal issues later down the road. I also agree that they listen to their player base (at least for smaller ideas). But when some one vocalizes that...

Exactly. I agree with this, as well. But, unfortunately, I don't think our opinion is shared by their CEO (as seen in the recent announcement of the Advanced Class book). In response to a comment about Paizo being more about rules, then stories, Lisa Stevens had this to say: In my opinion, I...

Okay, that makes sense. And the Application is just what I need! I will get it into that format. ...getting close...I think.

Okay, just one more question (for now ;)), is total CR figured out the same way as APL? And is each encounter given a total for loot distribution or do you figure it out for the entire adventure and use the same total CR for each encounter? Alright, that's two questions, but this is my first...

I haven't had a chance to look through Mythic yet, but I did get the Worldwound Incursion. I agree they seem to going the route of a "bigger is better" answer for new content. That's worrisome from a creative perspective, in my opinion. And with the announcement of the next AP (Iron Gods...

I've adjusted the encounters and the creatures are in the CR zone. Now, I'm looking at the treasure. Do we use this chart for reward limits? And if we do, which category do we use (slow, medium or fast)?

Okay, I understand how xp works. Thanks! I started writing up my own adventure, but I have some ideas for encounters and the CRs aren't matching up with the type of creatures I have in mind. It sounds like my best option is just to find another creature that is in the CR zone.

Sorry for the double post, but I am polishing up my adventure and I keep coming up with questions. Whats the guidelines for lowering a CR? Is there an issue with taking a CR 5 down to CR 1?

I am reading over the Submitting an Adventure page and I see "Experience to be awarded", do players get more xp then just the time-based xp?

Alright-y, I will get started hammering out something appropriately challenging for our hardy adventures!

Now that some of my PC campaigns are wrapping up, I think its time to jump into GM-ing pool. What's the rules governing pre-made adventures, such as some of the shorter PFS campaigns or 3rd party, converted campaigns?

"Pirates 'ave done enough to deserve loosin' der heads. No need to worry about if this one did anyt'ing worse or better." Thuk holds up the bag that contains the pirate head. Seeing that no one seemed too interested in the contents, he casually tosses it in the water. "Now, was this a common...

Regaining her composure, Dame Morrogrim reaches into her pack and pulls out a coil of silk rope. She walks over and hands it to Ru. "If you think it will help, please take my rope." she says.

The big half-orc takes long strides as he follows the party out of the tower. Leaping off the ledge and into the boat, he lands hard and almost falls out of the small boat. "Huuzzaaah!", he yells as he regains his balance and looks back at the sinking tower. Once everyone settles in and...

Dame Morrogrim stands erect with a hand to her mouth. She silently gags as Tirgas talks about the cannibalistic tendencies of the rats, the blood draining from her face. The only assistance she can give comes in quiet, disgusted groans and her internal fight to not faint.

OOC: I would probably hold off until we find out if this is going to work. No need to start slicing each other up, if its not going to work. :eek:

No problem for me...as long as nothing sneaks up behind us! ;)

Frantically, Thuk slices his arm with his dagger enough to draw blood and smears it on the portal. OOC: For some reason, I'm not getting email notifications for thread updates. Weird.

Thuk grabs the end of the rope and looks for something to wrap it around; if none can be found, he pulls it tight. I am assuming holding the rope while someone climbed across would be similar to maximum overhead lifting, which would be 350lbs for Thuk and probably more if there is something to...
