[Deptheads] Event Types

[Strategicon Department Heads]

My first and main thought is that LARP and role playing are rather synonymous. You might want to instead go with the distinction of LARP vs. Tabletop RPG, because that is the main difference between mine and Jim’s departments.

Hi,

For the purpose of event generation, Departments will be becoming Event Types.

I’m trying to figure out how to make things work right for all events. These are the two issues involving Event Types that I’m aware of.

1. Events running in areas not consistent with their real event type. i.e. Most Steve Jackson Games.

2. Events appropriate in multiple event types and often listing in multiple departments.

The first one I can adapt to easily provided I know what lengths I have to go for the second one.

Here is where I need your help.
What is the likelihood of an event being appropriate for more than two event types? I need everyone to think hard. Can you think of any game that would really fit in more than two event types?

For this exercise, please look at War Games and Party Games as splinter groups of Board & Card Games, and Adventurers’ League and Pathfinder Society as splinters of Roleplaying, which means they don’t need to be listed in the group they split from.

I need a list of such games. If it’s long enough, I have to think hard how to handle the process.

Events Types will be

Board & Card Games
Collectible Cards & Minis
LARP
Miniatures
Party Games
Roleplaying
Adventurers’ League
Pathfinder Society
Video Games
War Games
General

Event Classifications for users will be

Event
101
Demo
Tournament
Playtest
Seminar

Admins instead of Tournament will see

Small Tournament
Medium Tournament (selected)
Big Tournament
Mega Tournament

Sponsored will be a checkbox seen by all.
Special will be a checkbox seen by Admins only.

Thanks for helping me help everyone make more sense of events.

Tanya
