Winter There Games Name Tag Team Color Hangouts
The Winter There Games Village is now home to sixteen new Lots with open hosting rights. We’ve created one for each name tag color to use as a hangout during the WTG events.
Find your name tag color at the Winter Games Welcome Center and then head out in the Village towards the Winter There Game statues. The sixteen name tag team color hangouts are dotted throughout the landscape surrounding the statues. You can find a handy list of all of the color hangouts here and teleport to your team’s Lot directly.
Think of the name tag color hangouts as a spot to tailgate before the big Winter There Games events start! You can plan meet and greets, parties, roundups or practice your card game skills with other teammates prior to the Games.
Everyone on your team has hosting rights to the Lot. You can decorate your team hangout by setting an Event and dropping items. The items will remain out in the Lot until the next person who sets an event clears the Lot. It’s a good idea to save your layout so that you can set it back out at a later time if you need it. We ask that you stick to decorating your own name tag color Lot and let the other teams take care of their own hangouts.
You can find decorative There Games items in the Auctions to spruce up the place! Keep your team color and the Winter There Games in mind when decorating your team hangout.
We look forward to checking out the creative and fun builds all of the different teams come up with. Find your team hangout and start decorating!
