WHAT ARE THE RULES?
At the door you will be required to show identification and sign a form affirming your compliance with the following behaviors (list below). This form is available as a PDF (link below), which you can print and fill out in advance if you like, but you will still have to show valid identification at the door.
• You understand that staff at the event are wearing a green glowstick on a lanyard around their neck. If at any time you feel unsafe, need assistance, or want to report problematic activity, you can and should approach with confidence anyone wearing a green glowstick.
• You understand that dungeon monitors (DMs) are on duty at this party (also wearing a green glowstick on a lanyard around their neck), serving as an educational resource and safeguarding compliance with all the policies elaborated here along with common standards of conduct and safety. If you are directed by a DM to modify your behavior, you will comply immediately.
• You will treat all sexual orientations and gender identities with courtesy and respect, including using preferred pronouns and defaulting to they/them if you are not sure of someone’s preferred pronouns.
• You will not use your phone for any reason in any public area of the party for the duration of the event. You will record no images or video while inside the club, and if you witness anyone doing so, you will immediately bring this to the attention of the staff. You will keep all cameras on your personal devices covered with tape while you are in the party, and you will go into the explicitly designated (with signs) photo area, a restroom, or outside the building if you want to use your phone for any reason.
• You will follow commonly established standards of consent, including obtaining permission to touch or engage in any form of contact, and the firm rule that anyone who is visibly under the influence of a controlled substance cannot give their consent. You will support the physical and emotional well-being of everyone here, including instantly stopping any activity if someone withdraws their consent.
• You will respect the right of everyone at the party to control what is publicly known about them – meaning that after you leave the party, you won’t share details of anything you witness while you are here.
• Failure to comply with these terms will result your expulsion from the party without a refund and subjection to potential bans from other Safe Word parties and other events at The Wicked Witch, Ruby Deluxe, and the Night Rider.
• If anything happens at the party which causes you grievance, you will engage with the owner of the Wicked Witch in good faith that your grievance will be considered seriously and that you will be treated with respect.
