Good Vibes Only: Lan Party & 'Points for Style' Game Challenge

DC Gaming Group is throwing a LAN Party! We'll be hosting some free play game space and running a POINTS FOR STYLE CHALLENGE in one of our favorite FPS games, a casual tournament that rewards style, adaptability, and good sportsmanship.

Do I need to bring equipment?

DCGG will provide some popup arcade equipment and extra controllers, all available first-come first-serve.

Where does the money go?

• 85% rental and insurance - An event like this cannot be set up in a bar. It requires dedicated space and the support of the space’s teams
• 2% Fees, overhead equipment, supplies and admin costs (Meetup, fees, marketing)
• 10% equipment (mostly the cost of moving it around to avoid buying and storing duplicate items)
• 3% Silly little prizes

How Points For Style Arena Works:

---------------------------------------

• There’s 4 kinds of tokens you can earn: Style, Challenge, Guardian and Built Different
• Challenge and Guardian are considered chaos tokens because they affect gameplay by applying effects.
• We’ll crowd source a list of effects players can choose from for Challenge and Guardian chaos effects.

How chaos tokens affect gameplay:

• Challenge effects apply to the Challenged player no matter who they face
• Guardian effects apply to any player who faces the Guarded player
• Guarded players will be asked to use their most unique operator/skin
