[QUOTE="Majoru Oakheart, post: 6305377, member: 5143"] It's likely that the process will be similar to ordering D&D Encounters right now. You need to order the event using a retailer account. The events get given to the store and they likely print them out and hand physical copies of the certs to the DM. The results will likely have to be reported by the store itself. Or not reported at all, using the physical certs as the only way of verifying. As for enforcing that....well, none of the rules in LFR or LG were actually enforceable at all either. That didn't stop them from being rules. In LG, you could literally order copies of every adventure, print out the certs and fill them out in a way that looked pretty legal and would hold up under anything but the most intense scrutiny(which no one wanted to do because going through 100 certs with a fine tooth comb took a LONG time). So, I'm sure there were people breaking the rules all over the place. Though, a large number of people followed the rules because they don't like breaking rules. I'd include myself amongst them. It might be possible to break the rules, but not easy. If they do it the same way as Encounters, it means getting a hold of the certs will be kind of difficult. I've been trying to find copies of the Launch Weekend PDFs so that I can run them as part of my home game of the same adventures, but it's very difficult to find them as they were ONLY given to DMs running Encounters. Most were just given the printouts so they don't even have the PDFs. [/QUOTE]
