I'm making this thread to gather and share info on how to make customize guild events. I used to make alot of event for my guild and for others in other game so, here goes...
What is a customize guild events
An event which requires a team of event organizer, guild treasury (for prize giving) and the participants of course.
Objective
- Make guild activity more fun and foster closer ties of the members.
- To bring the leaders closer to the members themselves.
For those guild leaders and sub-guild leaders out there, here are some guides to make customize guild events.
1. Established a communication website / blog / use forums to annouce the events, dates and time.
2. Have a meeting with event organizer, and decide budget to buy the event price, start date and close date.
3. Determine rules and regulation
4. Fire up the event on time by annoucing in guild chat.
5. Have a member in event organizer as a monitor, he/she will be assigned to check items via trade window whether the constestant items are accurate or not.
Examples of Guild Events
1. Item Hunting Galore (Typical : 1 week event)
Write a riddle on the webby, each contestant will need to answer it.
But, they need to gather items that begins with the same character
For example,
Riddle answer is MAP so, items collected must be
Merciless Snake Spear,
Arrow,
a piece of
Python Armor
2. Location Hunting Event
Event Organizer each takes turns to Screenshot area of the map which is very unique, and jot down clues related to the map surrounding area. the organizer will also need to jot down the exact coordinates of the area X : Y
Usually this event, need at least 5 or more spots to locate otherwise it's too easy.
This event is easy to conduct cost it requires no monitoring. In the end constestant just need to fill up and email the document form / submit a PM in forum to a selected event organizer.
Steps
1. Create a guild email so that, ppl can submit their answers.
2. Find a place to upload or share your question form (e.g. webby / forum)
3. Assign a few member of the event organizer to look for unique spot to screen shot.
4. Use photoshop / any graphical tool to crop out the location then, add text clues to guide the contestant.
5. Prepare the question form and guides to fill in the form correctly.
6. Annouce the start / close date and prize (2X weapon elixir for e.g)
3. Run a thong!
Yes, very nasty, this is more like tournament which requires alot of monitors in each checkpoints.
Is basically this, each contestant that participate will have to strip down their armors and with no weapon or what so ever.
Monitors wil be stationed at various spots to from cities to cities....Yes, they have to run from city to another city without dying. The person that reaches first / or furthest (if all died) is the winner.
This tournament is tedious may requires schedule for contestant that participate and there's lag issues to consider.
Well that's about for now! Hope u guys find this useful. Cheers!
