    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.

    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.
