In light of recent increases in COVID-19 cases, Dystopia Rising New York (DRNY) will implement additional risk mitigation measures at events to address the issue. In addition to our standard policy (requiring all participants to be vaccinated) we will apply the following additional measures.
Event Cancellation Criteria
DRNY will cancel an event under the following circumstances:
Federal, State, or Local guidelines prohibit the event.
The owners of DRNY deem the risk of a live event excessive, even with Enhanced COVID-19 Protections (ECPs).
In the event of a cancellation of a live event, DRNY will not issue refunds, and will transition to an online event.
Enhanced COVID-19 Protections
DRNY acknowledges two ECPs:
A booster shot (administered at least a week prior to the event).
A negative result from a test administered within 72 hours of the event.
All players must choose one ECP.
Testing Protocol
Tests must be performed within 72 hours of the event (9 pm Eastern the Tuesday prior). Please email test results to info@dystopiarisingny.com. For self-administered home tests, please send a picture of the negative results with some form of identification in the background (a piece of mail will do).
If you do not have a booster shot and do not email us your test results, we will have a limited number of test kits at the game to accommodate you. Individuals who test positive will have to leave the game site immediately and are trusted to follow health department instructions.
Additional ECPs
As the situation continues to evolve, DRNY staff may implement additional ECPs, and may require players to use 2 or more available options. Additional ECPs will be added to this announcement.
