Hosting At Events

  • You do not need to be a sponsored host in order to host at events.

  • You are expected to be accountable for all event prizes given to you by Event Organizers, as well as provide and keep written record of your winners. Sometimes winner submissions don't make it to the EOs and it is necessary for them, or the Event Oracles to verify winners after the fact. The inability to supply this information when requested may lead to your exclusion from hosting at future events.

  • Event games must have 6 players to award all 3 main event prizes. If you should have less than six players, the prizes would be awarded per the scale shown. That is, if there are only 2-3 players, only one prize may be awarded. If there are 4-5, only two prizes may be awarded. If there are at least six players all prizes may be awarded. This refers to major event prizes only. Door prizes and acolyte prizes may be awarded in any game.

  • Raffle / Prize Draws are not permitted to be scheduled at events.

  • The use of random Box Picks, will not be used for Event Games, unless prior permission has been received from the Event Oracle. Some games allowed to use random Box Picks are: Ghost Racing, WOF, Pick Pockets & Secret Word... If you host a game that requires the use of Random Box Picks, please contact the Event Oracle and explain how your game runs and why random Box Picks are the only manner in which prizes can be distributed.

  • All other games, should distribute prizes according to the order in which they were won. For instance, 1st place winner, will receive 1st place prize, 2nd place winner, will receive 2nd place prize, etc... Exception to this rule, would be if a Bingo host chooses to use 1 Event prize per bingo round. In this case, the 1st place winner of the round, will receive whichever Event Prize is being used for that particular round.

  • All of the normal hosting rules apply to events, even for non-sponsored hosts.

  • Can I raffle off a prize set if a no-show occurs? No. Prize draws are not allowed at events. If a host no-shows you may find a replacement host or fill this slot with another type of game. All hosts should be keeping track of points in their games and if the host program crashes and they can't restart, prizes should be awarded based on the last known scores or not at all.

  • Each team of organizers should have a plan for no show hosts that is clearly stated on their URL for the game. Raffles are not allowed. Substitute hosts may be an option. Canceling the game and returning the prizes may be an option.

    You will receive a number of prize sets equal to the number of games on your schedule. If a host has a prize set and does not arrive for the game and a substitute host steps in, Acolyte prizes will be awarded until the event organizer can secure the prize set from the missing host and distribute to the winners.

    If a substitute host is used, effort should be take to replace one game with a game of a similar type. Example, do not replace trivia with ghost racing if at all possible. This is for the sake of the players as many come inworld only to play a specific type of game.
