=== Draft your forum post  ===
=== Draft your forum post  ===
The public face of your event is your forum post. It should clearly and concisely set out the date and time (in [[EVE Time]]) of the event, the event plan, any rules that need to be obeyed, what people need to do to join, and any prizes on offer. If you wish, you can send your draft post to the member of the Eve Uni staff you have been dealing with and they will check it for you. If this is your first event, you must get your draft post checked.

=== Post it up  ===
=== Post it up  ===
Post your event in the [https://forum.eveuniversity.org/viewforum.php?f=104 Corporation Events] section on the forum. Event subjects should start with the date of the event in EVE Time using the YYYY.MM.DD HH:MM format, followed by the name of the event itself. If you have the [[Sophomore]] title or higher, you should add the event to the in game calendar. If not, contact a member of the Eve Uni staff who will add it to the calendar for you. You should create a ''Alliance'' event using the [EVENT] tag and the event name from your forum post. Make sure you include a link to your forum post and that the time and duration match those in your post. If you have to cancel an event, you should change the tag on the calendar and forum to [CANCELLED]. For more information see [[EVE University Calendar]].

Post in your event thread summarizing the event results, and announcing any prize awards. If you took out a fleet, you should also send an EVE University staff member a brief AAR detailing any successes or problems with the event and any suggestions for improving the event in the future.
