PFS Guide anywhere

Is there a fairly simple guide anywhere on how the PFS / Organized Play system works? It is royally complicated to try to get involved. I have a paizo.com account and a -0001 character thought up, and it is just insanely difficult to figure out just how the system works so that i can play with him!

There’s dozens of hits on google because of each region having its own organization with their own write-up, but frankly they seem to be written for people who are already involved or familiar with some form of organized play.

  • It's true that PFS is pretty hard to figure out, especially if you don't have a well established and consistent lodge near you.

    Each region definitely has it's own style of doing things, and even playing in different regions can yield vastly different experiences. I occasionally play in a different state when I head into my jobs main office, and while the base game is still the same, it's not the same experience as when I play with my home lodge.

    The best advice I can offer you is to google "<local area> pathfinder society" and figure out what they use to do signups. A lot of places use warhorn, but I've also seen BBS systems and even meetup.com.

    If you have specific questions, I can try to answer them, or at least get you in touch with the VC (or one of the VAs) at my lodge and they might be able to help you out.
