Applications, RSVPs, and party bookings
PostRoll listings come in three flavours, set by the GM on each listing’s Booking mode:
- Instant book — pay and join. Standard Stripe seat checkout.
- Application — the GM reads your message and decides.
- Free RSVP — no payment, capacity-capped.
Free RSVP
Section titled “Free RSVP”- Open the listing page (
/games/[gm]/[game]). - Click RSVP →.
- (Optional) Pick a party size 1-8 if you’re booking for a group.
- Confirm.
Your seat is held immediately. You’ll show up in the linked VTT room’s roster + the My purchases → Upcoming tab. You can withdraw your RSVP anytime from the same Upcoming card; the seat frees up for the next player.
Application
Section titled “Application”- Open the listing page. The CTA reads Apply →.
- Write the GM a short message — playstyle, experience, schedule fit. Whatever helps them say yes.
- (Optional) Pick a party size if you’re applying as a group.
- Submit.
The GM has 7 days to respond. You’ll get a notification when they approve / decline / waitlist you.
- Approved (paid listing) — you get a one-shot checkout link valid for 72 hours. Pay → seat confirmed.
- Approved (free listing) — your seat is confirmed right away.
- Declined — the GM may include a short note. You can browse other games on the marketplace.
- Waitlisted — the GM might come back to you if a seat opens. You can withdraw from My purchases anytime.
Tracking your bookings
Section titled “Tracking your bookings”My purchases → Upcoming lists every booking that’s not yet played out:
- Paid seats from instant-book purchases (the existing flow).
- Free RSVPs.
- Approved applications, including the pending checkout link if the listing is paid.
- Per-session rows for campaign arcs.
My purchases → Library keeps the post-session view — once a seat is marked attended by the GM, you’ll get a prompt to leave a review.
What GMs see
Section titled “What GMs see”If you’re the GM, applications land in Outpost → Admin → Applications. Each card has Approve / Waitlist / Decline buttons. Approving a paid listing’s application mints the one-shot checkout link automatically — you don’t have to chase the applicant for payment yourself.
The cancellation policy field on your listing editor surfaces under the listing’s refund policy block — use it to set expectations around session cancellations, missed-session etiquette, and group ground rules.
