Events

Events are a fairly unique feature of our bot. They work similar to the events in our Discord.

Starting an Event

Starting an event is very simple, just run the /event start command with the event type, the channel the leaderboard should be in, a role to ping (optional), and the event duration.

The bot will then send a leaderboard which will update every 6 hours, or every hour if you have premium.

Event Types

When starting an event, it's quite important to know what type of event you're starting, and what it tracks.

Below is a list of event types and the XP they track.

Event Type	Description
SKILL	Tracks Farming, Mining, Combat, Foraging, Fishing, Enchanting, Alchemy, Carpentry, Runecrafting and Taming.
SKILL_*	Same as above, but tracks a specific skill (for example, SKILL_FARMING would track farming XP).
SLAYERS	Tracks slayer XP.
CATACOMBS	Tracks catacombs XP.
WEIGHT	Tracks weight. Calculations are provided by Senither.
WEIGHTED_XP	Tracks 3% of the Alchemy skill, 12% of Farming, 60% of Mining, 80% Combat, 115% Foraging, 250% Fishing, 10% Enchanting, 50% Catacombs XP and 100% slayer XP. 100% is normal XP gain.

If your server has premium, you can prefix the event type with GVG_ (for example, GVG_WEIGHTED_XP) and it will make the event a Guilds vs Guilds event.

Joining an Event

There are 2 ways to join an event:

1. Clicking the 'Join Event' button on the leaderboard,
2. Running the /event join command.

Leaving an Event

If for whatever reason you would like to leave an event, you can run the event leave command and select Yes.

Checking your Position

There are 2 ways to check your position in an event:

1. Clicking the 'Check Position' button on the leaderboard,
2. Running the /event position command.
