Museum Signups

Museum signups are streamlined events designed for activities that don’t require specific roles — like museum runs, housing tours, or casual group content.

What Makes Museum Signups Different?

Unlike regular raids with specific roles (Vanguard, Support, etc.), museum signups have:

Single Reaction

One ✅ reaction for all players (no role selection needed)

12 Player Cap

Default maximum of 12 participants (configurable)

First-Come Basis

Players fill slots in order — no role balancing needed

Automatic Waitlist

Overflow users automatically added to waitlist

Creating a Museum Signup

You can create museum signups via the /create command or recurring schedules.

Via Create Command

1

Start creation

Run /create to open the interactive raid builder.
2

Select Museum

From the type dropdown, choose “Museum Signup” (marked with 🏛️ emoji).
3

Set time

Click “Set Time” and enter when the event occurs:
tomorrow 3pm
Saturday 2pm
next week 6pm
4

Create

Click “Create” to post the signup. The bot automatically adds the ✅ reaction.

Via Recurring Schedule

For weekly museum events:
/recurring action:create
# Select: Museum Signup
# Schedule: Weekly on desired day/time
See Recurring Raids for detailed setup instructions.

How Players Sign Up

1

React with ✅

Click the ✅ reaction under the signup message.
2

Automatic assignment

If slots are available:
  • Player is added to the numbered list
  • Embed updates immediately
If full:
  • Player is added to the waitlist
  • Notified via DM they’re on standby
3

Remove reaction to cancel

Click ✅ again to remove your signup.
Players can only sign up once — they can’t be on both the main roster and waitlist simultaneously.

Waitlist System

The waitlist automatically manages overflow participants.

Automatic Promotion

When a main roster player drops: The first person on the waitlist is:
  1. Moved to the main roster
  2. Sent a DM notification
  3. Pinged in the raid thread (if enabled)

Waitlist Notifications

Promoted users receive a DM like:
You've been promoted from the waitlist!

Managing Museum Signups

Use the standard raid management panel:
/raid raid_id:abc123

Available Actions

Lock the signup — no new reactions accepted.Use this when:
  • Event is about to start
  • Roster is finalized
  • No longer accepting signups
Change Length and Find Sub are disabled for museum signups (they only apply to role-based raids).

Manual Roster Management

Admins can manually add/remove players using /raidsignup.

Add a Player

/raidsignup action:assign raid_id:abc123 user:@Player
Adds the user to the main roster (or waitlist if full).

Remove a Player

/raidsignup action:remove raid_id:abc123 user:@Player
Removes the user and promotes the next waitlisted player.

Move to Waitlist

/raidsignup action:waitlist raid_id:abc123 user:@Player
Moves a main roster player to the waitlist (frees a slot for promotion).
Manual changes trigger the same waitlist promotion logic as player reactions. Always check the embed after making changes.

Use Cases

Museum Tours

Coordinate group visits to in-game museums or exhibits.

Housing Tours

Organize house visits with player count limits.

Social Events

Casual meetups, fashion shows, or competitions.

Non-Combat Content

Any activity where specific roles aren’t needed.

Best Practices

Set realistic caps based on instance limits. The default 12 works for most content, but you can create custom templates with different limits.
Close signups 5-10 minutes before start to lock the roster and prevent last-second changes.
Enable threads in server settings so each museum event gets its own discussion thread for coordination.

Customizing Museum Capacity

The default 12-player cap can be modified via custom templates:
1

Contact server admin

Museum capacity is set when creating the template.
2

Create custom museum template

Your admin can create templates with different maxSlots values:
  • Small events: 4-8 players
  • Standard: 12 players
  • Large: 16-20 players
3

Use the custom template

Select it from /create or recurring raid setup.
Template customization requires server configuration access. See Templates for details.

Participation Tracking

Museum signups count toward user statistics:
  • Total raid count (/stats user)
  • Weekly participation (/stats weekly)
  • Monthly reports (/stats monthly)
  • Attendance rate calculations
  • No-show tracking (if recorded)
View stats:
/stats user user:@Player
Museum events appear as “Museum” in the “Favorite Raid Type” field.

Troubleshooting

  • Check if raid is closed
  • Verify player has permission to add reactions in the channel
  • Try removing and re-adding reaction
  • Ensure the previous player’s reaction was fully removed
  • Check bot permissions (Manage Messages required)
  • Verify the user being promoted can receive DMs from the bot
  • Look at the very bottom of the signup embed
  • Format: Raid ID: abc123
  • Use this exact ID (case-sensitive) in commands
