Original text:

It’s once again time for our annual Guardian Game’s Cup! Guardian Games Cup 2024 is a team-based competition beginning at 9:00 PST on March 5, 2024, and concluding at 09:59 AM PDT on March 26, 2024. Teams will compete in the Technical and Charitable categories. The Technical category tracks each officially registered team’s total number of Medallions dunked during Guardian Games All-Stars. The Charitable category tracks the total amount raised through the team’s official Bungie Foundation sign-up page throughout the same period.

Prizes

The top four teams in each category will be awarded prizes, including:

• The first-place teams in each category: life-size physical Allstar Vector Skimmer replica with the team’s names engraved (one per team per category).
  
• Top two teams in each category: Guardian Games Medals ($50 MSRP) for each team member (maximum of six per team per category).

• Top three teams in each category: Binary Cascade emblem codes for each team member (maximum of six per team per category). 
  
• Top four teams in each category: Bungie Store $50 discount codes for each team member (maximum of six per team per category). 

Technical and Charitable Leaderboards

Scores will be calculated throughout the process, and you can return to this page to view updates every week. The top ten teams in both categories will be displayed. Please note that the Technical category leaderboard will have up to a 24-hour delay.

By contributing to an officially registered team throughout the Guardian Games Cup, you will be supporting two charities:

• Direct Relief is a humanitarian aid organization, active in the US and more than 80 countries, with a mission to improve the health and lives of people affected by poverty or emergencies—without regard to politics, religion, or ability to pay.
• The International Rescue Committee responds to world humanitarian crises. They help to restore health, safety, education, economic wellbeing, and power to people devastated by conflict and disaster. They are proud to fight for a world where women and girls have an equal chance to succeed.

Any donation of $10 during the event will receive the Together in Contribution emblem. Every $10 donated will net you an additional code for the emblem. You must select the specific incentive when donating to receive your code.

How does Team and Individual fundraising work?

Each invited team member must create their own individual campaign under the team campaign in order to earn credit for lifetime donations and be scored in the competitions. Each team will also have a team fundraising page. Donors may donate to either page/link. All donations received, either through individual or team links, will count towards your team's total.

For example:

• Player A raises $100 through their page.
• Player B raises $500 through their page.
• The team page receives $1000.
• The total team funds will be $1600.

If you would like credit towards your personal lifetime fundraising status, donations must be made through your individual campaign link. Donations cannot be moved from the team campaign to an individual campaign once the transaction is complete.

How do I add the Together in Contribution emblem incentive to my campaign?

INDIVIDUAL CAMPAIGN

During registration you will be prompted to select all rewards offered by the event. Please ensure to select the reward for Together in Contribution to enable it on your campaign page. This can also be done later following the same steps below if originally missed.

TEAM CAMPAIGN

From your Tiltify account dashboard:

Select Campaigns -> Choose your team campaign -> Click Overview -> Click Add Incentives -> Toggle the Active slider on the reward.

Will this event be eligible for Light Keeper's Guild (lifetime fundraising) status?

Yes, all donations received through individual fundraising page/links will count towards your Light Keeper's Guild status. Donations received through team links are not eligible. Your team's total fundraising amount will not count towards Light Keeper's Guild status.

Which link should I share on my stream/socials?

If you would like to earn and progress your Light Keeper's Guild status, we recommend sharing your individual page link. Any funds raised individually still count towards your team's goal for the competition.

How do I invite clanmates or friends to my team?

Once a team has been created by the Team Captain, they should mark their sign-up page to private and share the link with their teammates.

Each team can have a maximum of six (6) members, and the Team Captain may remove members at any time.

How do I join my friend's team?

If your friend has created a team already, please ask them to generate an invite link to share with you. Only the Team Captain can generate this link.

Donations will open on March 5, 2024, at 9:00 AM PST and will be accepted until March 26, 2024, at 9:59 AM PDT.

How can I earn the Together in Contribution emblem?

Where is the money from my donation going?

All funds raised during Guardian Games Cup 2024 will be split equally between Direct Relief and the International Rescue Committee.
