Hosting events for your viewers

It is your own page on Anvil, at anvilosrs.com/c/your-name. You run events there for your viewers.

It is not a clan. There is no clan list, no ranks and no weekly competitions. Anyone who joins your event plays that event. Nothing else.

Viewers sign in with Discord, add their RuneScape character, and press Join. The Anvil RuneLite plugin then counts their drops by itself.

1. Go to anvilosrs.com/host and sign in with Discord.
2. Type a name for your space. Your channel name is a good pick. Your link is made from the name. Press change link if you want a different one.
3. Press Create my space. You get one space per Discord account.

• Right after you make your space, you land on Create your first event. Later, use + New event at the top of Your events.
• Name. What your viewers will see.
• What kind? Pick a card. Team bingo is a 5×5 grid and Anvil splits players into teams for you. Solo bingo is the same grid, every player for themselves. Team race is tasks in order: the team furthest along wins.
• Ready-made tiles gives you a mix of easy to hard tasks you can change later. Blank, I’ll write my own starts empty.
• Who can join? Leave it on Anyone, or pick who may join. See step 5.
• When? Pick the start and end dates. Or leave it empty and start the event yourself when you are ready.
• Press Create event. Then press Copy invite link.

Paste the invite link in your stream chat, your Discord or your socials. That link is all your viewers need.

You can copy it again any time: Your events → Copy invite link next to the event.

Want the bot to answer !join in chat with the link? See step 9.

Every event starts open to Anyone. To keep it for your community, open the event’s Settings → Viewers → Who can join? and pick one or more choices. The same choices are on the first-event screen.

If you pick more than one, any one of them is enough. A follower OR a server booster gets in.

Each choice, and what a viewer has to do:

Want to pick who plays? Open the event’s Settings → Viewers → Who can enter and choose Ask me about everyone. Press Save changes.

Now viewers press Ask to join instead of Join. They still have to pass your Who can join? choices first.

Their requests show on Your events as N waiting for you. Click it, or open the event’s Sign-ups tab. The list at the top is called Waiting for your yes. Accept or turn down each one.

Open Settings in the menu. In the Twitch channel, YouTube channel or Kick channel box, press Connect Twitch, Connect YouTube or Connect Kick, and sign in as your channel.

Each channel you connect shows on your page as a verified link. You can’t type a link in by hand: signing in is how Anvil knows the channel is yours.

A channel can be connected to one place on Anvil. If it is already on another space or clan you run, Anvil asks if you want to move it.

On Your events, press Stream overlay next to the event, then Make overlay links.

You get three links. Standings: the top teams and how far along they are. Feed: the latest drops and finished tiles. Board: the board, with finished tiles marked.

Pick a Text size (S, M, L or XL) before you copy. Then press Copy next to the one you want.

Add it to OBS

1. In OBS, under Sources, press + and pick Browser.
2. Paste the link in URL.
3. Set a size, for example 800 × 600. Leave Custom CSS empty.
4. Press OK. It updates by itself every few seconds.

Open Settings → !join in Twitch chat and turn it on.

When a viewer types !join, the Anvil bot (Anvil_OSRS) replies with the link to your open event. It answers once every 30 seconds at most, however many people type it.

It only answers in a channel you connected in step 7. For Kick, turn on !join in Kick chat in the Kick channel box.

No event open? It says so: “No event is open to join right now — keep an eye on the stream!”

Your page is what people see at anvilosrs.com/c/your-name, along with your events. Open Settings → Your page. Each part has its own save button.

• Bio. A few lines about you and your streams. Links that start with https:// can be clicked.
• Logo and banner. Press Upload a logo or Upload a banner. The banner goes across the top of your page, so make it wide (3:1, for example 1500 × 500). PNG, JPEG, GIF or WebP. Both may be animated.
• Panels. Up to 8 cards under your events, like the panels under a Twitch channel. Press + Add a panel and give it a title and some text. A picture and a link are optional. Use the arrows to change the order.
• Schedule. When you usually go live, in your own time zone. Visitors see each time on their own clock.
• Featured. One clip pinned to the top of your page. Pick one of your stream highlights (next step), or paste a clip link from Twitch, YouTube, Kick or Medal.
• Press Preview your page to see it the way visitors do.

With your Twitch or YouTube channel connected, Anvil catches the big moments of your events while you are live. The switches are in Settings → Stream highlights.

Auto-clip big moments on my stream is on as soon as you connect. While you are live on Twitch, Anvil makes a clip when one of your events starts, when a team clears the board or wins, and when your own character gets a rare drop or a pet. On YouTube it saves a link to that second of your stream instead. Kick has no highlights yet.

The clips show under Highlights on the event page and on your page. You can pin one as your Featured clip (step 10).

Let Anvil feature clips from my events in its own promotion stays off until you turn it on. Then Anvil may share a clip on its own pages and socials, and always credits you.

Your players can clip their own big moments too. They turn on Clip my stream when I hit a big moment under their Twitch account in Settings → Connected accounts.

Your space is unlisted when you make it. Only people with your link can find it.

Open Settings → Advertise on Anvil and turn it on. Your space shows in Anvil’s creators list, and your new events show on anvilosrs.com/events.

To list one event only, open its Settings → Viewers → List on Anvil. It shows while the event is upcoming or live.

An event with no dates shows under Open to join, marked “Open now · starts when the host starts it”.

Your plan sets how many players can be in your events at once. Events whose dates overlap share that number; events on different dates get it each. A player in two overlapping events counts twice. Everything else is the same on every plan: the board, the plugin tracking, the overlay and Discord.

Your plan card is on Your events. To compare plans, see pricing. To change or cancel what you pay, go to your billing page.
