How to host events (guide)

There isn't a guide about this so why not make one ;o?
So many admins especially the new ones don't know the commands for some events, even the /help or :help command doesn't really give them the right commands (how did I know that?) they keep messing up even when they type it so here are the right commands and some advices on how events should be hosted
Everything's so simple.
Let's start with races
-Water 1-2 (SPEED HACKERS FAV RACE!)

 Spoiler

commands:
1-:update level-Update level twice! "why twice? I could update once and start!", twice to make sure everything loads correctly on everyone's screen!
2-:start don't make us wait!
3-:kickall after the winner grabs his ec
Advices:
1-Don't let over 60 players in for less lag and to catch the speed hackers easily.
2-Watch out for speed hackers, watch the gameplay and always check their speed BEFORE someone wins because they can turn off the speed hack.

-Multi race

 Spoiler

commands:
1-:update level
2-:center, 3 times you have to do it 3 times so it doesn't break
3-:start
4- :kickall
Advices:
1-don't let over 70 players in, you might break the event!
2-sometimes after you center 3 times, FEW players might get out of the beginning line. Drag them back if they keep getting out before you even start kick them.
3-watch the gameplay someone might lag through everything!

Crate 1-2/lucky race

 Spoiler

commands:
1-:update level
2-:start
3-:kickall
Advices:
1-sometimes in crate2 when you start within 2 seconds someone wins. Don't worry he just lagged so you gotta restart.
2-watch the gameplay in lucky race someone might speed hack at the end!

-Ultra race

 Spoiler

commands:
1-:update level in every level
2-:center
3-:start
4-:kickall
Advices:
1-be careful when u enter the last level, do NOT touch the trophy.

-Tri race / gravity 1-2

 Spoiler

commands:
1-:update level in every level
2-:start
3-:kickall
Advices:
1-when you scope them inside the event some players get out of the beginning line so drag them back, in Gravity 1 usually they hide so open ur eyes O.O

-Bush race

 Spoiler

commands:
1-:update level
2-:unlock
3-:lock
4-:ready
5-:kickall
Advices:
1-watch the gameplay someone might lag through the bushes

chance
-toilet / lucky grab

 Spoiler

commands:
1-:update level
2-:down
3-:timer
4-:kickall
Advices:
1-you need to repeat #2 and #3 till one player survive
2-hosters should wait for the timer to tick down to 0 prior to saying ':down', even if the arena is empty. For toilet, this isn't the case, as the ':down' command cancels the timer, however if you do that in lucky grab you'll end up accidentally kicking everyone who's left as the timer isn't cancelled.

-elegant / explosive chance

 Spoiler

commands:
1-:update level
2-:set
3-;open
4:box # (for elegant)~grab the chosen box 2/3 (for explosive)
5:kickall you can :kickdead if you didn't know
Advices:
1-when you get the players in the boxes always check if there's a player stuck in the losers' box before you start.
2-if the wrong switch is grabbed the ':undo' command may be used to heal those in the box that was incorrectly chosen.
3-:undo doesn't bring back those players who died incorrectly so be careful[/QUOTE]

team
-team spar

 Spoiler

commands:
1-:update level
2-:start
3-:kickdead

-CTF

 Spoiler

commands:
1-:update level, twice
2-/ctf something pops up on your screen
3-probably not gonna work in the first try so repeat the commands
4-:kickall when it ends

-TTS

 Spoiler

commands:
1-:update level
2-:sort
3-:chattoggle to make them able to talk, say the same command to disable it
4-:toggleauto
5-:kickdead
6-:kickall
Advices:
1-sometimes players leave while sparring and tts stop working, DO NOT SORT just say :up then :toggleauto
2-kick Teamers! "But the event called tag team spar!" By Teamers we mean those players who team up with the ENEMY team. Most admins kick them.
3-"how I know that they're teaming up?" When They say their names in public chat OR hold a special item like saber OR they just know each other by their statuses.
4-they shoot but they never hit each other and rarely get close to each other.

skill
-Spar

 Spoiler

commands:
1-:update level
2-:start
3-:kickdead
4-:kickall
Advices:
1-don't let over 30 players in ! This event is so bugged. Players will get stuck on the wall and the event will probably stop working.
2-it stopped and u don't know what to do? Type :stop then :kickdead YOU HAVE TO kick non winners before you update again! then repeat #1 and #2.
3-if u keep checking spar arenas that will be really nice, when someone's stuck usually we can't see that he really is, so if you're sure heal both players and update the level INSIDE THE ARENA. U need to sit down on the red chairs.
4-sometimes players act like they're stuck.

-rush

commands:
1-:update level
2-:start
3-:kickall
Advices:
1-don't let over 60 in ;-;

3-:move u can say :move multiple times

Even if there was, the admin will be like: "umm it's just update level and :start, it's not that hard" while he's hosting ctf lol.

nice guide

there are commands, if the admin ignores the commands without actually knowing them then it's their fault.

I bet you only hosted chances/races, because there are no "signs" for the commands in events.
Oh yeah, I think elegant is the event that has a commands guide because there is a sign that says "staff team say :help for commands" or something like that, might be the only event with commands guide.

There's one in tri race and it only says update level before starting or something like that

Most of the over hosted events don't have a guide so well done. Would be nice to make a rule where a certain event can only be hosted X amount of times in a week. Events get boring when it's the same usual events and people wonder why it's the same winners

A few things to note:
First of all, in 'advice' for lucky grab, add a note that states PRs should wait for the timer to tick down to 0 prior to saying ':down', even if the arena is empty. For toilet, this isn't the case, as the ':down' command cancels the timer, however if you do that in lucky grab you'll end up accidentally kicking everyone who's left as the timer isn't cancelled.

Also, a few of your commands are incorrect. E.g. For tts ':kickall' isn't a command, it's just ':kickdead' at the end (remove step 6), and for step 3 it isn't ':togglechat' it's ':chattoggle'.

For catastrophy, you don't update the level twice at the start. You update, set , then update again (second update changes prior number of cats needed to number that you set).

Lastly, elegant isn't exactly the same as explosive. The commands you've listed are fine for elegant but not for explosive. For elegant, steps 1-3 are fine, but replace step 4 with 'grab switch of chosen box' + state that a switch should be grabbed 2/3 times (and the number of times the switch is grabbed should be told to participants to ensure the event doesn't take an eternity). Also, if the wrong switch is grabbed the ':undo' command may be used to heal those in the box that was incorrectly chosen.

What's with putting the spoilers?

Also in response to a prior statement, commands as a matter of fact do exist , which staff can read at any moment whilst in the event. However some are incomplete hence a guide may come of use to new PRs , although it's always best to ask another staff for help if you're an inexperienced hoster.

Well for me and esca an incorrect box was hit in explosive and the admin did :undo to heal the ones that survived the explosion but we died so it didn't bring us back. Rip.

You're correct.
When u update cats twice at the beginning cats spawn faster and also you don't really have to update after u set, both works correctly

Don't take it seriously, you can't get your chances of becoming a staff by posting guides. Sadly
