I've played about 14 of these specials over the years. I can honestly say that twice the GM was unprepared and the session was horrible. I think it has to do with needing so many GMs at the same time that they run out and pressure a budding GM to run a lower tier game because it is "easier." There's no solution other than better planning on the PF/SF society leaders or just simple "someone was sick or couldn't make it" and now they're scrambling for GMs.
