Fortress of Gaming Expectations

Fortress of Gaming offers a wide variety of games and play opportunities that are enjoyed for social interactions, complex strategies, entertaining characters, and an overall atmosphere of friendly competition.
 

While the objective many of our events is to determine the skill level of each player involved, our ultimate goal is to ensure that every participant, spectator and customer has fun in a safe and pleasant setting.

The following are expected from all players, customers, spectators and staff:
 

• Fairness: Games cease to be fun when players break the rules to achieve victory. Taking advantage of inexperienced players, other customers or Fortress of Gaming events and venues for personal gain will not be tolerated.
   

• Honesty: Players of any game should strive to act honestly while playing that game. Observing an illegal activity and not reporting it immediately to Fortress of Gaming Staff is a violation of the Fortress of Gaming Code of Conduct.
   

• Respect: Players, spectators, customers, staff and property should be treated with the same respect that players would expect for themselves and their property.
   

• Distracting an opponent or a judge to gain advantage shows disrespect to everyone involved in an event.
   

• Promotion of other business is disrespectful of community and business of Fortress of Gaming.
   

• Theft is disrespectful of personal property and will not be tolerated at any level.
   

• Sportsmanship ‐ Winning or losing with grace is vital to the enjoyment of any game. Demeaning, disrespectful comments, or actions before, during or after a game indicate poor sportsmanship and will not be tolerated.
   

• Learning ‐ discussing strategies, offering tips, or constructively critiquing game play decisions after a match has been completed helps both participants to become better players.
   

• Teaching ‐ a new player to play and providing other players with a positive experience are the most valuable things any person can provide to our community.
   

We greatly appreciate your support in our efforts to make Fortress of Gaming, the communities we serve and he events we run safe, fun experiences for all.
