It's probably best to obtain the scenario by creating an event, then cancelling it before it is scheduled to start. Once the part is complete, what I'd do is create a 'home' event and use the new event to report the results.

The reason for this is that the DCI reporting system is only really designed for events which can be played within a single day; if you do not report the event you created so that you could download the scenario until you've finished playing then, unless you complete the thing within eight days you will get a delinquent report mark on your account which could affect future reviews of your DCI 'level'.

If anyone can think of better ways to do this, let me know!

I am in total agreement with Pedr as that is exactly what I have done


1. Order the event.
2. Download the adaptable document.
3. Cancel the event.
4. Play the event.
5. Order the event (again).
6. Report the event.

OR - now that lead times appear to be gone, schedule the event several weeks after you intend to start playing. That way you can download the mods now, and have padded in several weeks to play the mods.

Given everything, that will only work if you can play it within a 4 week period, since there still appears to be that 30 day or 4 week before the event limit on when downloads become available...

Have we tested that to know if it still applies? I was under the impression that it no longer held.

Well, it appears that that limitation has, indeed, been removed. I just ordered an event for November 30th, and the download was, indeed, available.

Ok you need questions? Here's mine.

I am thinking about running home RPGA events. Can I use this adventure for LFR RPGA? I have heard no but I see a sticky about this on here so I'm confused.
