Fai Chen is a great thing. I love it. I may never get to participate in it but I think its great.Ive been reading the replies so far on this topic of DM rewards. A) I think we need to cut out this expectation of any 'physical' hold in your hand rewards beyond the Cert. The costs would be prohibitive (esp since this OP is an international OP.. look at the costs for sending stuff outside the USA and then re-evalutate your opinion on this)B) To be honest, early access does not interest me.. at least not at this point in time. Like I have stated previously I run the Expeditions locally (there are no other Expeditions dms locally). So when I prep to run a scenario I read over the scenario several times, often eagerly reading how something has gone or something has changed, sometimes being surprised.. sometimes not. Its really all the 'early access' I need. C) I think DM Rewards need to actually be taken OUT of scenarios. Its not needed. The current season guide already details this for Encounters, the information shouldnt need to be replicated in the scenario for the Expeditions. There is also no reason why the gold shouldnt retroactively be able to be applied to season 1, bar of course the confusion of it not being listed in the Scenario to begin with. DM's however are fairly intelligent beings. One of our primary skills is .. improvisation. THe ability to adapt when characters do crazy things. I think we all should be able to know that we need to consult page X in the guide to be able to get our exp and gold.One final thing which is probably a little off topic is:Modification of older scenarios. Now I understand that AL resources are dedicated towards new scenarios. Im cool with that. However ( and probably in relation to my point above about gold in season 1 scenarios) that we need some of these older scenarios corrected.  Im not saying we go to the point where Secrets of Sokol Keep now awards 900/1200 on the split instead of 600/900 as it does now.. Im more addressing the errors in stats blocks or location blocks or rewards and the like. Having a FAQ is great (assuming the majority of people know about it, but the primary resource for the dm is the scenario)</blockquote>
