    Hi.

    I know I should know this, but looking over the event descriptions, what are Tiers?

    In what way do they figure into choosing games to sign up for?

    Thanks.

    Bill

    In relation to which events, Bill?

    I have no idea. Some listings seem to have tiers listed. Is this a rating of how hard core a gamer you are?

    I'd have to have a little context in order to help you out, here, Bill. We've got 900+ events, and I'm not familiar with the text enough to tell you that your guess is correct. I'd imagine that "tier" represents some sort of difficulty, or perhaps the round of a tournament? If you've got an event you can point me at, I can, at the very least, contact the DM to see if he/she can provide more information.

    I believe it is similar to the D&D Adventurer's League dealing with Player Character Levels.

    Yes, it is so that people with existing Pathfinder Society characters know which level the adventure is for and can sign up accordingly. If you only have a Tier 1 character (level 1 - 3?; I don't remember the actual breakdown), you don't want to bring that character to a Tier 3 adventure.
