Code of Conduct
It is our goal to ensure that the gaming experience at Alternate Universes is fun for everyone, be it veteran gamers or a novice’s first foray into gaming. To that end here are our ground rules that we think will allow everyone the best chance to get the most from our event(s).
In addition:
1. Be Respectful of Everyone
Make sure to respect all players/T.O.’s, regardless of your liking towards them. Treat others the way you want to be treated.
2. Make Sure Everyone Has a Good Experience
This is a game that we are playing. It should be fun, none of us are keen on losing but it’s part of the nature of the game. As much as possible be a grateful winner and a courteous loser.
3. Keep it Friendly
Games are meant to be fun.
4. Don’t Cheat During Games
We all make mistakes with the rules, which should be corrected as quickly as possible. But CHEATING is not ok and may get you banned from future store events.
5. Try Not to Get Worked Up
In the heat of the moment, it’s easy to say things that we might not mean. However aggressive, abusing, or violent behavior will not be tolerated in any way.
Any unsportsmanlike conduct will be handled appropriately, up to and including removal from the event without a refund, a temporary ban on attending events at all locations, or in egregious cases a permanent ban from all events.
Once the event fills up, please contact us and we will add you to the waiting list!
