Event (as well as Organizer) reputation (or authority) is the level of trust that participants and the community place in you and your event.
It reflects your professionalism, reliability, and overall credibility.
Reputation cannot be measured with a number, but it is felt through the way people respond to you and what you create. Very often, the success or failure of an event depends directly on its reputation.
- Your past track record: Have you organized battles before? Did you deliver the promised prizes? Share this with participants.
- Your actions in the present: how you handle organization and communication.
- Professional communication with participants and judges.
- Design quality of your event website and materials.
- Prize fund: while an attractive prize pool can boost interest, an unrealistically large fund may raise doubts.
- Judging panel: the credibility of your judges directly adds to your event’s credibility.
- Many other details, both big and small, shape the way participants perceive you.
Several platform-related factors also influence event reputation:
- Tariff plan: investing financially into your event signals commitment and seriousness.
- Battle quality level: Professional Battles that meet Vanguard’s quality standards receive significantly greater recognition.
- Recommended status: only top-tier events may receive the label “Recommended by Vanguard”, which further increases their authority.
Always finish what you start. Keep your word. Stay committed to the event and to the community.
Respect is earned over years — but it can be lost in a second with a careless mistake.
