+SW00P Posted July 19 Share Posted July 19 Recently I put an event in to be published on the same day and time of another event 22.5 miles away. I had to change the time because of event stacking rules. Today I see two events GCABJHM and GCAAQCD published on same day and almost at the same time. Distance between almost the same. What am I missing about these rules? I expect to hear the reviewer didn't see the other event. 1 Quote Link to comment
RuideAlmeida Posted July 19 Share Posted July 19 Two different states, two different owners... not stacking for me. 1 1 Quote Link to comment
Keystone Posted July 19 Share Posted July 19 Your event conflicted with an official Side Event for a nearby Mega Event, subjecting it to a higher standard of scrutiny. The two events you cited are not proximate to any Mega Event. 2 6 Quote Link to comment
+BAKO1313 Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 THE RULE: "This event is not allowed because it's too close to your previously published event in both time and distance. There needs to be at least 4 hours between events, or events separated by 1.0 mile." In my mind Event Stacking, an event IMMEDIATELY following a prior event at the same coordinates, makes environmental and economic sense. Less driving and the results and costs associated with that driving. Possible cost of two sites. Participants time. Two events at different coords at different times or two events at same coords in succession? JUST SAYIN' 1 3 Quote Link to comment

That's what the event stacking guideline is getting at. Also, what you state as "THE RULE" for event stacking is not, in fact, the rule. 3 Quote Link to comment
+GeoElmo6000 Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 I've seen plenty of mega event after parties, like the mega event ends at 5pm and the after party starts at 5pm, at the same location. Not sure how that's not event stacking. 1 Quote Link to comment

+BAKO1313 Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 An event from 10:00am to 10:30am, then an event from 10:30am to 11:00am at the same coordinates. Like a WWFM, then a M&G. THE RULE: was a direct quote from the reviewer note I received after the second event was submitted. I did correct a misspelled word in the note. 1 1 Quote Link to comment

Why not just have a single hour-long event from 10am to 11am? That would make just as much "environmental and economic sense", wouldn't it? 3 2 Quote Link to comment

Different states will have regional guidelines they follow. I know in parts of Minnesota the distance has to be at least 20 miles, not just 1 mile. Quote Link to comment
+bflentje Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 I have to agree with the rule.. eh hem.. guideline.. even if I think is ridiculous. We're encouraged to run power trails but for some reason events are controlled with what I believe to be a draconian fist. Shrug. Quote Link to comment
