This thread contains tips for the eyes of our new hosts and all who are interested in starting a community game night. If you want to host some Carnage, reveal the spoilers! [b]Remember, anyone can host a game night in this group! Check out our [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/forum/Post/109116277/0/0]schedule[/url] to reserve a playdate.[/b] Creating the thread: [spoiler]1. [b]Check the calendar.[/b] Make sure you are not butting heads with Carnage game nights already scheduled. Please don't make an "official" public Carnage game night without letting anybody else know beforehand. The leaders here want to be able to support it properly. 2. [b]Try to make the sign-up thread a day or two before a game night.[/b] This allows enough time for awareness, but not too much time where people forget we're playing. 3. [b]Create a public thread via The Community Carnage forum. Apply the tags #carnage, #communitycarnage and #SeventhColumn to ALL Carnage game nights.[/b] For unofficial Destiny game nights, post in the #Recruitment forum. For official Community Carnage Destiny game nights, post in #Community. For game nights unrelated to Destiny, post in the #Gaming forum. 3. [b]View [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Clan/Post/15287/105266994/0/0]this thread[/url] to see an example of our bungie.next Carnage thread formatting.[/b] Feel free to copy/paste it for your game night. 4. [b]OPTIONAL: Consider finding somebody to live stream the Carnage.[/b][/spoiler] Finding players: [spoiler]1. [b]Carnage game nights are first come, first serve.[/b] On the web version of bungie.net, you can sort threads by "Oldest First" to ascertain who signed up first. 2. [b]For multi-platform game nights, allow 1 lobby per platform.[/b] Consider building lobbies AS NEEDED if there is overflow of interested players. 3. [b]Keep the thread updated with a roster.[/b] You can "Like" the posts of those confirmed to be playing.[/spoiler] During the game night: [spoiler]1. [b]Post any and all live streams in the thread and Carnage group wall![/b] Those who can't participate enjoy jumping in via Twitch. 2. [b]Reply to your topic as much as possible, including when lobbies are full or when you need more players.[/b] People get confused when hosts and Carnage facilitators are MIA. 3. [b] Above all, relax, game, and don't be a dick. Shoot the shit and have fun playing with each other.[/b] We're here to have fun and this should always be a stress-free platform to make friends and play games.
