Focus

Partyline is here to assist with your Colony of the Month! If you need help creating items, advertisements, and/or banners; if you need assistance hosting events; if you need other colonies/places to help you celebrate by hosting events then just ask in the Partyline group. Partyline is here to help when and where we can! All representatives are volunteers and are happy to assist, as available.

COTM Banner

Banner design is to be submitted to the Mayor by the 18th of the month prior to that Colony becoming the Colony of the Month. This enables the time for necessary approvals and/or changes if required. Partyline is willing to help create a banner; however please note that we can not guarantee a banner as this is based on the availability of our own volunteers.

Submission of COTM banners is the responsibility of the COTM CL, not Partyline.

Events Listings

A list of events for the Colony of the Month activities needs to be submitted to the Partyline no later than the 20th of the month prior to that Colony becoming the Colony of the Month. This time is necessary so that Partyline has the time to list all events on the city calendar, work with you to make changes if necessary, and seek necessary LE confirmations prior to the beginning of your COTM. COTM event lists should include ALL events held in your Colony, including those to be hosted by another Colony, and should follow the same format.

The Event List for COTM should be one (1) Event per line, in the following format:
Date of event, Start time, End time, Name of Event, Information (optional), link (optional)

In the following cases, events on the list may be requested to be changed or be rejected:

The Partyline coordinator will approve or reject events on this list based on obtained information pertaining to each Event.

Live Event Button

After events are found acceptable, approval for Live Events Button will be requested for each of these events. After all events are approved and confirmed for a Live Event Button, they will be placed on the City calendar. Please be sure to check the City calendar so that errors can be corrected expediently.

At times the situation occurs that an LE has been requested (and has been approved/confirmed) prior to the COTM, before the COTM event list has been received/approved/confirmed. Therefore, we ask all parties to check the city calendar BEFORE scheduling LEs to avoid having your request declined. Although COTM events normally take precedence, if another approved/confirmed LE is already in place, there is little we can do.

If an event is submitted and the LE Button requested during a scheduled COTM event, Partyline must decline use of the LE Button; however, the event may be posted on the City Calendar.

The purpose of the above is to double check that there are no scheduling conflicts with other City activities and events requiring the Live Event Button. It also enables the COTM’s events to be listed on the event calendar so that any other events needing to be scheduled can be managed without conflicting with an approved COTM Event, if possible.

In the event that an additional unscheduled COTM activity requires the Live Event Button, notify the coordinator through Partyline. Your event will approved or rejected using the same criteria for original submissions and the calendar updated accordingly.
