Tyria Pride 2022 feiert dieses Wochenende die LGBTQ+ Community
Das Tyria Pride 2022 Event wurde angekündigt. Vom 18. Juni 2021 bis 19. Juni 2022, feiert Tyria die LGBTQ+ Community. Sowohl in der realen Welt, wie Ingame wird dieses Event gefeiert. Organisiert wurde das Ganze im offiziellen Forum und dem offiziellen Discord.
Was geschieht beim Tyria Pride 2022?
Tyria Pride ist ein von der Community organisiertes Event. Es findet am 18. Juni und am 19. Juni 2022 statt. Die Community möchte damit die LGBTQ+ Community unterstützen. Auch offline werden Spenden für die Rainbow Railroad gesammelt, die sich weltweit für die Menschen der LGBTQ+ Community und deren Rechte einsetzt.
Ingame sind an beiden Tagen Umzüge geplant, in denen die Spieler quer durch Tyria ziehen und sich dann später feiernd versammeln. Das Event findet zeitgleich auf den EU- und NA-Server statt, so dass Ihr als auch ohne Probleme teilnehmen könnt. Das Event findet bereits seit sieben Jahren regelmäßig in Tyria statt.
Wie kann man teilnehmen?
Um teilnehmen zu können, solltet ihr euch bis 15 Minuten vor Beginn an den jeweiligen Startpositionen einfinden.
Der Beginn ist um 16 Uhr des jeweiligen Tages. Es werden dann im LFG Schlachtzüge eröffnet, sodass man dem Event beitreten kann, dabei werden immer neue eröffnet, sobald ein Schlachtzug voll sein sollte.
- • Samstag, 18 Juni: Ebonfalke (am Portal nach Götterfels)
- • Sonntag, 19. Juni: Löwenstein (beim Feld der Gefallenen)
Solltet ihr weitere Fragen haben, wurde ein Discord eröffnet, dem ihr einfach beitreten könnt. Ihr findet diesen unter tyriapride.com/discord.
Im Discord findet ihr auch die Informationen, wie ihr an der Spendenaktion für Rainbow Railroad teilnehmen könnt.
Livestream
Den Tyria Pride 2022 könnt ihr an diesem Wochenende auch auf unserem Twitch-Kanal verfolgen. Dort werden wir am Sonntag den Umzug live übertragen.
Hello everyone!
Well the year has certainly gone by fast! Can’t believe it’s almost June already! I’m happy to announce that
Tyria Pride 2022 will be happening on June 18 & 19, on both NA and EU servers!
■■■■■■
■ What is Tyria Pride?
Tyria Pride is an annual event that celebrates the LGBTQ+ community and our allies both in-game and out, and raises funds for Rainbow Railroad, a non-profit organisation which helps LGBTQ+ people around the world escape state-sponsored persecution and violence!
It’s a 2-day event with a 7 year history, as part of which we’ll be walking from Ebonhawke to the gates of Rata Sum in Metrica Province, hanging out & having fun while raising money to leave the world a better place than we found it!
■ When / Where?
The event takes place over two days, and will be held on both EU and NA servers.
Start locations:
- • Saturday, June 18: Ebonhawke (at the portal from Divinity’s Reach)
- • Sunday, June 19: Lion’s Arch (at the Field of the Fallen)
Start times:
• EU: 16:00 CEST [14:00 UTC]• NA: 4 PM CDT [21:00 UTC]
We tend to start marching about 15 minutes past the hour. Despite this, to get into the correct instance without any issues, it’s recommended to be at the location at least 15 minutes before the hour.
■ How to join?
To accommodate everyone coming to the event, we’ll have multiple volunteers helping everyone get together, and will be taking over multiple instances of the same map. Each instance can only take about 150 people, so not everyone will be able to fit on the same instance. Our volunteers will be opening LFGs to get everyone onto a number of maps.
One way to make this simpler and to get in touch with volunteers more easily is to join the Tyria Pride discord, at tyriapride.com/discord! As the event draws closer, we’ll include a list of volunteers here that you can contact in-game as well!
Please note: Do not open your own LFGs, please wait for organisers to open theirs so that you can join on a map instance with an organiser on it. Due to how the megaservers work, just because you are in Ebonhawke / Lion’s Arch, it doesn’t mean you’re with the organisers. That’s why it’s a good idea to arrive into the map before the event start time!
■ How to get involved?
The success and scope of Tyria Pride depends heavily on help and volunteers from the community! If you wish to help out, there are several ways you can do so:
• Volunteering: Volunteers help out on the day of the event by helping ferry/taxi everyone into the correct instance between maps, guiding the path, fielding questions & providing information (which you’ll be provided as a volunteer in the form of copy-pastes). A commander tag helps greatly with this but is not necessary.
• Streaming the event: Streaming the event is a great way to spread the word! This year we’ll be compiling and highlighting a list of streamers that will be attending the event, so if you’re planning on streaming the event, let me know!
• Contributing in-game prizes: One of the ways that we encourage donations to the Rainbow Railroad fundraiser is by doing raffles of in-game prizes. In the past, this has included legendaries, rare materials and fancy skins! If you can contribute anything that you think might be a cool prize, get in touch!
• Spreading the word: The most important thing to any event is visibility! If you can spread the word to your friends, your guild, your grandma, your estranged cousins, share the event on social media, talk about it at brunch with your co-workers, explain it to your cat! For quick information, here’s a promo image you can share!
If you want to get involved, either as a guild or as an individual, the best way to do that is to join our discord at tyriapride.com/discord and get in touch there, or contact me in-game at Lelling.6795 via in-game mail!
■ Fundraiser
But wait! We’re not just talking the talk, we’re also walking the walk, and we want to create actual change and improve the lives of LGBTQ+ people worldwide, so we are, as always, running a fundraiser for Rainbow Railroad, an organisation focused on helping LGBTQ+ individuals escape persecution and violence.
You can find the fundraiser at justgiving.com/tyriapride2022
Just like every year, those donating to the fundraiser will be able to participate in raffles to receive both in-game and out-of-game rewards!
■ Contact
If you have any questions about the event, feel free to ask them here on this post! I’ll be checking it regularly and doing my best to reply to any questions! You can also join the Tyria Pride in-game guild, but note that the guild is inactive throughout the year, and is only used as an infopoint to let people know about this particular event. If you’re looking for an active LGBTQ+ guild, the Tyria Pride event itself and our discord are a great place to look!
