Overview

Player Event Support is a service that allows players to have moogles added to their events through a simple application process.

Apply for Player Event Support

Much of the charm in player events comes from the diversity found in the many different players' plans and event details.

Even veterans who have traversed every square foot of Vana'diel and defeated the most powerful enemies can be shocked and thrilled by an event they have never experienced before.

Likewise, beginners who have yet to experience the depth of the world of Vana'diel can make their names heard far and abroad with their ingenious event planning ideas.

An example of player events that are being conducted now would be the games, quizzes, and dramatic performances that players from across the Worlds conduct for their fellow adventurers.

These kinds of events were born from free-thinking players' ideas, which have been widely accepted among the player community, and are now regularly conducted throughout Vana'diel.

Player Event Support isn't just limited to large-scale events, but is also used by players for things such as unique weddings that don't use the Wedding Support service or chocobo races that span players' favorite backdrops. Whether just a small meeting between linkshell members, a celebration of an anniversary with friends, or a lecture for beginner adventurers, the opportunities are truly endless.

Any player's idea can blossom into a new and amazing event!

We in the Operations Team strongly believe that events like these are essential to the growth of the FINAL FANTASY XI community.

These player-run events have established a whole new way of enjoying life in Vana'diel and we wish from the bottom of our hearts that, through them, you can enjoy FINAL FANTASY XI more deeply and richly than ever before.

For all of you who have thought "I'd like to experience an event where..." or "This event could be so much better if...", we present the Player Event Support service!

Player Event Support Guidelines

Player Event Support is a service that allows players to have moogles added to their events through a simple application process.

As a general rule, the Operations Team does not provide support other than moogle setting and placement. Event planning and progress, as well as management during the day of the event, is to be handled by the player(s) holding the event.

  • If during the event, it is decided that non-participants' gameplay is being hindered due to congestion or disorder caused by the event, the Operations Team may intervene to rectify the situation. In such a situation, please follow GM instructions immediately.

Applications

These are details about the Player Event Support application process:

  • Please make sure the event's host applies for Player Event Support.
  • The host must possess an account that can be logged into FINAL FANTASY XI from the time that the event starts until the time that the event ends.
  • The Operations Team will be in charge of all contact with the host from the time that the event has been approved until the time that the event ends. Please be aware that an event may be cancelled if the host cannot be reached.
  • The desired date for holding an event can be selected from 14 to 7 days before the date of the event. After this submission period has ended, the applications will be reviewed in the order they were received and, if necessary, selected via a draw.
  • The host will be contacted by e-mail regarding the results of the review/draw and whether or not the event was approved. The host will be contacted if the event cannot be held for any reason.
    • After altering the event details and date/time, you can re-apply for an event any number of times.

Holding an Event

Please be aware that support will be canceled if the event host does not log in on the day of the event. If for any reason, holding the event is difficult for the host, please contact us by the day before the event by replying to the e-mail notifying that your event was approved.

Support Time Period

The times for the event will be decided by the event host, but moogles can only be placed between 4:00pm and 11:00pm{PDT}/3:00pm – 10:00pm{PST} and moogles can be removed from 1 hour after they have been placed until 12:00am{PDT}/11:00pm{PST}.

  • Once a specific time has been reached or the event has ended, the moogles will be removed. Please be aware that the host will not be contacted about this.
  • Applications for support over several days will follow the same moogle placement rules described above for each of the days.

Moogles

Guidelines on Moogles and placement:

  • An event will not be approved if we are unable to verify the locations where the moogles are to be placed. Please be careful to correctly enter the coordinates obtained with your Pendant Compass when applying.
  • If you would like to change the moogles' message, placement locations, or appearances, please contact the Operations Team by e-mail up until the day before the event. Once a moogle has been placed, its message, placement location, and appearance cannot be changed.
  • The moogle message entered in the application will be used as-is unless there is a significant problem with the service. Please apply after you have carefully decided on your message.
    • The Operations Team will not translate or correct any of the non-English messages that have been set. We recommend that the host confirms that the text being used is correct and appropriate.
