Note that we are still happy to have more GMs overseeing events for the 2026 ACDC.

GM's need not purchase a badge to submit events, but all events are subject to approval before they are available to the public.

GM's are expected to have a full teaching knowledge of the game, as well as mastering the tools used to present the game online, including "hosting" the game in the chosen virtual platform (TTS, Tabletopia, VASSAL, etc). GM's will need to provide their Discord user name as a part of registration to enable player comms if needed before/during events.

GM's with at least 6 hours of approved events will get a free badge to The ACDC.

Submission link is on the right sidebar
