Often times, at game conventions, people will wear fantasy, sci-fi, or military costumes. In case you wish to wear a costume, here are our rules:
1- No realistic weapons, whether or not they work.
2- No working, non-realistic weapons.
3- No costumes that are ‘offensive’ by law.
These rules are meant to assure your safety and the safety of your fellow event go-ers. Please consider others when
designing your costumes.
Thank you Kublacon.
Stealing, cheating, breaking any law or rule, rowdiness, harassment, or failure to conduct yourself in a mature manner will be grounds for removal from the event and premises. It should also be known that A Geeks World Tour 2020 will prosecute all law breakers to the full
extent of the law. Also, such incidents will be documented and serve as grounds to be banned from current and future A Geeks World Tour 2020 events. Selling or trading counterfeit cards or other items is illegal - and grounds for permanant expulsion from A Geeks World Tour 2020 events and/or criminal charges.
Thank you Kublacon.
If you find or lose any items, please take them to the Circulation Desk/lost and found. Any property found on the site after the show ends will be returned to the owner if possible, with any nonreturnable items becoming the property of A Geeks World Tour 2020. We assume no responsibility for lost materials.
Thank you Kublacon.
GMs will NOT charge for any event.
GMs are not allowed to require or suggest that any player have their sight or hearing substantially impaired (blindfolds, noise-cancelling headphones, etc.) as a part of a game. Opt-out or opt-in provisions for players do not make these practices acceptable. A Geeks World Tour 2020 considers this a safety issue, and will not schedule games with such practices.
*******************
GMs are not responsible for the behavior of players in the game. They are not baby-sitters, and they are not to be held accountable for offensive behavior by any player. If a player is consistently breaking rules, playing in a manner that exceeds the game's stated Game Content level (Family, Mainstream, Mature Theme), engaging in what the GM considers excessive conduct of any sort, or is harassing any other player out-of-character, and does not stop the objectionable actions when asked, A Geeks World Tour 2020 delegates to the GM the right to ask that player leave the game. GMs are expected to use this power only as a last resort. If the GM doesn't feel comfortable ejecting a player, please find a AGWT 2020 staff member who will do so.
*******************
Anyone (GMs, prospective GMs, players, parents) who have questions about how these policies are applied may contact the Games Coordinator at Agwt2020@gmail.com before the event, or any staff member during the event, for assistance or clarification. In all cases, our primary intent is to facilitate a game-playing experience that is positive for all participants, especially GMs, and our decisions on applying policy will be made with that intent foremost.
Thank you Dundracon.
Explicit sexual content and the use of epithets relating to contemporary races, religion, ethnicity, age, sexual orientation or gender are prohibited. Excessive graphic violence, as might be depicted in a splatter-type horror novel or film, is also unacceptable.
A Geeks World Tour 2020 is happy to have kids of all ages in attendance at our events, and we try to provide events and attractions that will appeal to a wide range of ages. We also encourage safety for kids and everyone else, which is why we have a number of rules and recommendations we hope everyone will follow. Children are expected to follow the rules of A Geeks World Tour 2020 just as adults are, and are subject to the same penalties and restrictions if they do not.
One way parents and guardians can assure that minors in their charge will be as safe as possible at the event is to make sure an emergency contact number is included for every child who registers with us. If any problem arises, it helps us to have a way to contact you right away. Those of you in attendance at the event can leave a cell phone number which is better. If you are not physically at the convention, please try to provide alternative contact numbers (home, business, cell) as appropriate. It's a good idea for adult members to provide this information as well, in the unlikely event that an accident or health crisis gives us need to contact a relative or other person of interest.
We rate most of our events for content in order that parents, children and other attendees will have some idea of what they can expect in a given game, and can choose events most appropriate to their enjoyment and comfort. See our game content standards.
A Geeks World Tour 2020 has neither the authority nor the resources to supervise the kids in attendance at our convention. While we are not baby-sitters, we do want to assist parents in every way we can as they make the most appropriate decisions regarding their childrens' presence at the convention. Know your child's capacity to operate autonomously and make decisions with that in mind.
Please contact any member of our staff if you need assistance at any time regarding your children (or for any other event-related matter). Above all else, we want to help you and yours have the best possible event, and will do whatever we can to make that happen.
Know where your children are, and make sure they know where you are. Set a specific time and place to meet whenever you and your children are going to be in different places for even a few minutes. Ultimate responsibility for your children's safety lies with you; A Geeks World Tour 2020 and affiliates will do the best we can to support you in that goal. Should any crisis arise, children or adults should contact our staff.
Thank you Dundracon.
Anyone who endangers the health and safety of others, or causes others to feel unsafe, is subject to expulsion from the event, though in minor cases they might just get a stern talking-to. Most everyone behaves very well for such a large event, but because it is large and sometimes crowded, we have to take potentially hazardous situations seriously. In particular, use of controlled substances, use of fire in any way (even a candle), or use of alcohol are ALL NOT ALLOWED and are grounds for banning the offending party out of the event.
Smoke only where legally allowed - that is: in the smoking areas outside the building facility. Note: that A Geeks World Tour 2020 includes vaping, electronic cigarettes, and similar devices in our ban on smoking.
A Geeks World Tour 2020 is an inclusive, family-friendly convention, and a safe and welcoming environment for anyone interested in games and gaming of all sorts, including related game clubs and communities. We expect all attendees to treat each other with common courtesy and respect.
A Geeks World Tour 2020 does not permit harassment in regards to sex, gender, sexual orientation, dress, age, race, religion or lack thereof, disability, or involvement / non-involvement in any group or activity at any A Geeks World Tour 2020 event or venue.
Harassment includes any behavior that annoys, alarms, demeans, or threatens another person or group. Harassment includes (but is not limited to) verbal comments, the use of overly sexual imagery in public areas, intimidation, stalking, invading privacy, comments or gestures that make them feel unsafe or uncomfortable, unauthorized photography or recording, inappropriate physical contact, unwanted sexual attention, unwelcomed sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, other verbal or physical conduct or communications constituting sexual harassment, and disruption of events or activities. This is not an exclusive definition; harassment is as broad as the perception of the harassed. If someone asks you to stop or to leave them alone, do so immediately. Continuing contact with that person may be considered harassment.
If you feel you are being harassed, fear for your safety, or witness someone harassing others, contact a A Geeks World Tour 2020 staff member or volunteer immediately. All harassment reports will be investigated and dealt with thoroughly, with consequences including, but not limited to, the revocation of membership without refund, ejection from the site, banning the harasser from some or all future events or the involvement of local authorities.
It's in our best interest, and our responsibility to keep A Geeks World Tour 2020 a friendly, open environment where every person is free to enjoy their attendance and express their love and enthusiasm for any and all forms of gaming. Together we can maintain A Geeks World Tour 2020's reputation for openness, inclusiveness, and mutual respect.
Thank you DunDraCon and Kublacon.
