Click on the chat box in the bottom right corner for direct contact to Gamerjibe support.

Changing Your Avatar (User Settings)
To change the gender of your character or the default style that they are dressed, find and click on your initial and a green dot in the top right corner, navigate to user settings > Avatar. In addition, if you complete the scavenger hunt, you can change into a Bufficorn or other fun character! Codes will be emailed to winners before the opening of the castle the next day. Please keep these codes private as they will only be provided to people who complete the challenge and you will risk losing your access. See next tip for how to activate it.
Joining an Organization (& Activating a Custom Avatar)
Once logged into the Virtual Castle (Gamerjibe), click the icon top right and click “Your Organizations.” If you’re the member of a sponsor group or you activated an achievement via the scavenger hunt, you’ll have received an “Organization Code”. Click “Join Organization” and enter the code. Click the star next to the avatar you want to use and it will be activated (you can earn multiple avatars and switch between them by doing this). Refresh your browser to rejoin the environment and when you return, you’ll appear differently than you did before. Keep in mind if the venue is at capacity, there may be a waitlist to rejoin the virtual castle.

Exploring a Booth
Booths in Gamerjibe are interactive and full of content! Click on a sponsor booth to access a video or slideshow with more information about their business. Click on arrows to move back and forth through slides and when you’re finished, click the ‘BACK’ button in the bottom right corner. On the table of the booth you will find green coins which will link you to websites, social media or even giveaways!!
Private Chats
You can invite any individual member in Gamerjibe to join you for a private audio or video chat! Once you connect directly with someone, you can continue talking with them even as you walk between rooms! Alternatively each vendor booth is also it's own private chat, so step inside to chat with sponsors or hear them talk about their product. Please be courteous of other people's conversations inside of the venue.
Presentation Rooms
Looking to learn more about the blockchain or the companies driving the industry? Visit one of our presentation rooms!
On the left side of the Welcome Zone you will find Blockchain101. Your central hub for learning. Every day we will have a scheduled speaker doing a 30-60 minute presentation explaining different subjects regarding blockchain. Everything from how blockchain and mining work, to creating a wallet of your own! Find the Blockchain101 schedule and more details here.
Oppositely, on the right hand side you will find our AMA Room. We will be picking the brains of a range of high profile speakers live on stream! Come watch and ask your questions in chat for a chance to have them answered live during the AMA.
Sponsor Rooms
Find your way to the Moon, Spork, Rainbow and Mountain shill zones to find our sponsor booths as well as more space for conversation in our bean bag chill areas.
The Main Stage (DJ Chill Room)
Want to just grab a drink at the virtual bar and listen to music? Or just want to find a space to chat? The DJ Chill Room makes for a great place to do just that! The main screen will be playing our live DJ @ twitch.tv/djchillroom!
Patio
Need a breath of fresh air? A drink? Or maybe you just feel like doing some light fishing and listening to the sounds of a campfire to roast marshmallows. All this can be found on the patio, found at the back of the Welcome Zone.
Scavenger Hunt
Who doesn’t like free stuff, right!? Anyone who enters the Gamerjibe environment will be eligible to earn NFTs for completing objectives. Just make sure when you’re logging into Gamerjibe, that you’re using the same email you used to register for ETHDenver (any of the authentication methods are fine as long as the email matches).
To receive your NFTs, you’ll also need to make sure the email you’re using to login matches the email you used to register for ETHDenver.
You’ll have a chance to collect NFTs and if you collect enough of them, you’ll unlock additional cool avatars. Visit every room in the Virtual Castle environment and complete the challenges listed on the Scavenger Hunt Page.
Provide Your Ethereum Address to Collect NFTs
As long as your email matches your application for ETHDenver, you’re good to go.
If you didn’t provide your Ethereum address while registering for ETHDenver.com, no problem! Just send an email to nft@ethdenver.com with your Ethereum address and you’ll be whitelisted to receive any NFTs you earn while exploring the Virtual Castle! We’ll email you each evening with whatever POAP NFTs you’ve earned and how to redeem them.
Room Capacity & Instances
To keep things flowing smoothly, each room in the Gamerjibe castle holds up to 40 people. When the 41st person enters, Gamerjibe creates what’s called a new “instance”. You can view all current instances by clicking “Instance” at top right within gamerjibe. If you run into the same room as a friend you’re talking with but don’t see them there anymore, it means they’re in a different ‘instance’ so you can click the “Select Instance” button at top right to swap between instances. There will typically be no more than 2 instances per room since people tend to spread out, but for events like the Closing Party in the DJ Chill Room, you might see as many as 10 instances.
Event Capacity & Idle Kick Time
The venue has a maximum capacity of 500 attendees. If you try to join and we’re currently full, hang out and after a min click ‘connect’ to try and load in. If you leave your avatar idle for 15 minutes, you will be kicked from the event to allow others to enter.
