Website, Registration, and Publicity
From BAPHL Wiki
Website
- Contact Hubert to get ssh access to the webpage
- Create BAPHL header graphic and background image
- Otherwise, just reuse css and information from previous BAPHL pages
- Good idea to have this up about a month ahead of time
- Put up a "Looking for Group" page so lone hunters can find a team
- Past practice has been to email the baphl account, but it would be easier to just have a page where people can ask/receive team members
Registration
- Set up a google form and embed in website
- Set up paypal button to the paypal account of your team
- Set a registration cap
- Put up a specific time that registration closes (11:59PM EST for instance)
- Make sure deadline gives you enough time to produce puzzles
- Expect a lot of last minute registrations. BAPHL 10 had 6 of 42 teams register in the last 24 hours (and 1 team contacted us after the deadline to register)
- Ask for both the team captain's email and phone number so you can contact the team during the event
- Ask how new teams heard of the event
