Big Summer Block Party Games

Volunteer Guide

On Aug 29, starting at 3:30, we will be hosting a remote block party on our Discord server. Part of that party will involve multiple voice channels streaming party games.

We are currently looking for users who are willing to host party game streams.  

We are looking for people who own games that other players can join without having to buy or download anything. Games like:

• The Jackbox Party Pack (any pack)
• Use Your Words

In addition to those, you can also run any other web-based party game that’s free, like:

• Skribble.io
• Bonk 2
• Pretend You’re Xyzzy (cards against humanity)

You do not have to play the games, or even hang out in the channel, as long as you are able to keep the game stream going.

Ideally, you would be available to check in on your game regularly to make sure it is running smoothly. You may also need to manually restart the game if the “VIP” users aren’t allowing new players a chance to join. I would recommend using an alt Discord account to host these games so you can use your main to hop around the party.

Game rooms will have a reasonable user limit (between 12 and 20) to prevent too many people from talking over one another.

We will be choosing volunteers based on which games they have, and what times they are available (the signup form is broken into 1 hour blocks for availability).

If you are interested in volunteering, please fill out the signup form (use your NG username so I can contact you). Approval and a final schedule will be provided by @PsychoGoldfish as soon as possible.
