Process
How an event runs with me
The same four steps, whether it's a weekend cup or a season-long circuit.
Scope
Format, rules, calendar and constraints, agreed up front.
Prepare
Ruleset, handbook, registration and player comms ready before day one.
Run
Match days administered live when the dates fit my calendar, confirmed before we start. Otherwise your team runs them from the handbook.
Close
Final standings, records and a clean handover.
Engagement
Ways to work together
Every event is scoped and quoted individually, based on format, length and number of players.
Preparation
Setup only
Format, ruleset, handbook, schedule and registration, handed over ready for your team to run.
One event
Per event
A single tournament, from the first draft of the rules to the final standings, with live match days when the dates fit my calendar.
Multi-month
Per season
A circuit or league run across several months, with one point of contact throughout.
On demand
Match-day support
Extra admin cover for specific match days, alongside your existing team, subject to availability.
Ask for a quote with your format, dates and expected number of players. I confirm which match days I can cover live before we agree on anything.

About
Cédric “Choom” C.
CHOOM is my event operations practice. For the last few years I've run the admin side of competitive online events, mostly in real-time strategy, where rulings have to be fast and schedules can't slip.
I work quietly in the background so organisers, players and casters don't have to think about operations.
