NekoCon Ribbon Game!

Incoming Transmission…​​​​​​

Collect. Trade. Complete Your Quest!

​

Welcome to the NekoCon Ribbon Game — a convention-wide challenge where you earn collectible ribbons by completing fun tasks, quests, and interactions throughout the weekend! Whether you’re a casual collector or a dedicated Ribbon Hunter, these rules will help you play fair and have fun.


1. How to Play

  • Visit participating Ribbon Givers (staff, guests, vendors, and attendees) throughout the convention.

  • Each giver may have a unique task, challenge, or interaction you must complete to earn their ribbon.

  • Tasks may include: answering trivia, performing small challenges, attending events, trading, or finding hidden clues.


2. Displaying Ribbons

  • Attach your ribbons beneath your convention badge using the adhesive edge.

  • Ribbons can be stacked in any order, but please ensure your badge name and membership type remain visible.

  • You may trade ribbons with other attendees, it’s part of the fun!

  • Some ribbons are limited edition or one-per-person, so be courteous to others.


3. Earning Ribbons

  • Ribbons may only be awarded by authorized givers listed in the official Ribbon Game Catalog.

  • Some ribbons have specific conditions or time limits (e.g., “attend this event,” “find this booth,” or “complete by Sunday”).

  • No cheating or misrepresentation (e.g., lying about completion, forging ribbons, or taking extras).

  • If you’re unsure whether a ribbon is official, check the Ribbon Game Catalog or ask the Info Booth.


4. Trading Etiquette

  • Ribbon trading should always be friendly, voluntary, and fair.

  • No selling or reselling ribbons for cash or goods.

  • Respect other attendees’ decisions, if someone says “no” to a trade, move on politely.

  • Be mindful of space when trading in busy areas (please don’t block hallways or doorways).


5. The Ribbon Master Challenge

  • Collect as many unique ribbons as you can throughout the weekend!

  • Some ribbons may form hidden sets, secret quests, or meta-games.

  • Check the Ribbon Game HQ for special announcements or surprise bonus ribbons.

  • Special prizes or recognition may be given for top collectors or creative displays (details at HQ).


6. Rules & Conduct

  • All participants must follow NekoCon’s Code of Conduct and Convention Policies.

  • Do not harass, pressure, or follow others for ribbons.

  • Any behavior deemed disruptive or unsafe may result in removal from the game or convention.

  • NekoCon staff reserve the right to disqualify participants for rule violations.


7. Need Help?

  • Visit Ribbon Game HQ (located in artist alley) for assistance, lost ribbon reports, or rule clarification.

  • The HQ team can confirm official ribbons, help with catalog updates, and settle trade disputes if needed.

 

Remember:

This game is meant to encourage fun, creativity, and community interaction, so collect with kindness, trade with joy, and make new friends along the way!
