Question

What is the best way to host a video game tournament for a fundraiser?

Community Answer

Ask people to pay for admission, just a small fee like $5 or $10. You can also have food and drink stalls and use the proceeds from these sales towards your fundraiser.

Question

I want to host a big event with over 20 random people. How can I advertise it on a university campus?

Community Answer

Posting or distributing flyers would probably be the most effective method. You could also utilize social media to spread the word, even by creating a unique/fun hashtag.

Question

How do I organize an Xbox tournament?

Community Answer

Depends. Are you trying to do a local, unofficial tournament, or something big? If it's local, and you have multiple Xboxes, set up a LAN party. If you only have one, then just use an online tournament creator.

Community Answer

It doesn't really matter. It can be a website that you created yourself, a Facebook event, an emailed invitation, etc. As long as your audience knows how to reach your tournament, you are good to go.

Question

How many controllers and systems should I try to get if there are 100 people expected to come to a video game tournament?

Community Answer

It depends on how many people there are per game and how many people will play at a time. I would say for 2 people per game, 25 consoles and 50 controllers.

Question

How do I get systems and controllers when in school if I want to host a video game tournament?

Community Answer

The main idea is that you should bring your system to the school, and make the participants bring their controllers. A whole lot cheaper for both sides.
