Let's talk: Frequently Asked Questions

Q: I want to play, how do I sign up?

For Players

  • STEP 1: Share your COVID vaccination info.

    • Email attawaystaff@gmail.com with the subject line: [YOUR NAME] VAX RECORD - PC

    • Include EITHER an IMAGE of your vaccine card (front and back; feel free to cover your contact info) OR a written request to show your proof of vaccination to a director via video chat

    • A director will then confirm that you are able to register and provide you with a paypal.me link for Enkindle Storytelling

  • STEP 2: Go to the paypal.me link you receive and pay your event admission.​

    • PWYC players can pay less; players can also overpay to fund the PWYC program

    • As with our past events, admission is still first come, first served

  • STEP 3: After completing Steps 1 and 2, you will receive an Arc 2 character submission form within a few days; please fill out as much of the form as you’re able.

 

For NPCs

  • STEP 1: Share your COVID vaccination info 

    • Email attawaystaff@gmail.com with the subject line: [YOUR NAME] VAX RECORD - NPC

    • Include EITHER an IMAGE of your vaccine card (front and back; feel free to cover your contact info) OR a written request to show your proof of vaccination to a director via video chat

  • STEP 2: A director will then confirm you are set to go for this event. Please do not arrive at the event site if you have not received this confirmation from a director.

    • In order to keep our participant numbers lower for COVID safety, and because our NPC needs are limited, we have a hard cap on volunteers for this event. Your cooperation and understanding is appreciated.

Q: Where is the Character Builder?

A: Staff will email you a link to the character builder form after you register for an event, in the case that you miss the announcements via social media linking to the form. 

Q: Can I just email my character backstory?

A: Moving into arc 2, staff cannot accept submissions of backstories via email. Please use the character builder form once you have registered for the event.

Q: I'd rather volunteer as an NPC (non player character) and help staff tell the story. Where's the Signup?

A: Fantastic! We'd love to have you. Email staff at attawaystaff@gmail.com for more info! Signup is required for volunteers, since staff needs to collect vaccination records and know who's coming and how much food to provide.

Q: I missed registration and want to be put on a waitlist!

A: Email attawaystaff@gmail.com with your request and we will give you your number space on the waitlist. 

Q: I want to talk to people who currently play! How do I do that?

A: Attaway has its own discord server and Facebook Group.

Q: I want to establish a staff exchange with Attaway for the game I play/run! how do I do that?

A: Please have the staff of the game reach out to our team at attawaystaff@gmail.com

Q: Why is your cap 30 players? 

A: Our insurance and COVID safety limit the number of people we can have on site, and in order to keep a manageable staff/player ratio, we cap at a slightly lower number than other area games. In addition, we want to maintain a reasonable workload for our writing staff, and have found that with our team size, our sweet spot to maintain the quality of plot we are proud of is 30 players.
