Jan 21, 2009 18:19:30 I have just finished my first RPGA Home Play/Game Day event and I have reported the stats via online. I have several questions to ensure I am doing it correctly.

(1) Do I need to physically mail anything in if I reported online?

(2) Do you add the MONSTER xp to the ENCOUNTER xp? Or, is it all included in the "Total Possible Experience" listing. I ask because it would include a significant amount of xp if you include each NPC killed in combat.

No, you don't need to physically send anything in.

Only award the XP given in each encounter; don't add the XP shown in each monster's entry (those are "baked into" the encounter XP award). If you add up the XP for each encounter, they should add up to the "maximum XP" for the tier, given at the end of the module.

Jan 26, 2009 14:15:28 I have a question on this.

Prior to the new DM Rewards, home games received different points from LFR official games. Now, one of the reasons I'm running LFR games is to time with pre-made modules. But, as I've learned 4E and really grown to love DMing in the new edition, I'd be interested in running a home game of my own setting.

Would this qualify for a DM Reward point each time I ran the game?

Thanks,
Lingan

It looks that way. If you go to sanction an event, every module on the adventure list (including the "D&D Home Campaign" placeholders) now looks to be worth 1 point.
