Message for the hosts

Once the forum is opened this message should be the first thing all event hosts sees. I've used bits from previous starting thread and updated it. Dates could change because of the server transition.
If you're seeing this thread and forum, then it means you've been invited to create Get-Together 2019 with us! This section is a place where you will plan your events and prepare them, ready to be posted to the main Get-Together forum when that is created and made public. Hosting an event for the Get Together is a lot of fun, but there's a lot of responsibility too because we're counting on you to have your events ready on time and well-managed during the GT itself.

This year Get-Together's theme is detective mystery. We're trying to tell a story about *whatever the story will be*. There are no teams around this time. Users will instead earn points to work on common goal - solving the case. You can incorporate this into your event, but it's not mandatory. If you wish to integrate the story into your event, let us know here and we will help you.

So what can you do now? You or your co-host (if you have one) need to set up a thread in this forum. You use that thread to plan exactly what your events will entail, the rules, how you determine the winner etc etc. You'll have until the 25th July to finish your planning and let us know you're ready to go.

We're currently working on polishing the whole point system, but don't worry, you'll be notified about it before the deadline.

If you have any questions, you can contact *any volunteers?*.

I also plan on sending all the hosts PM when the forum is opened:
Hi,

I'm contacting you because you volunteered earlier this month to help with events for Get-Together.

We just opened a forum where you can plan your event. You can get to the forum either through the index or though this link. Please read the starting thread for more info.

If you have any questions, don't be afraid to hit me with them.
Feedback is appreciated.
 
In terms of event setup if anybody needs help with how to lay out their thread, I could probably guide them.
 
Did we ever figure out how long the event was going to last? Unless I overlooked I didn't really see a time span.
There is a poll the Time thread. GT should be starting around 26/27 July and ends around 6/7 August. But it depends on the state of the story.
