Event settings
Use Event Settings to configure how your event runs after you create it. The options you see depend on the event format you chose, not whether GGS registration is enabled.
Open your event, then go to Event Settings. If a setting does not appear, your event format does not support it.
Settings available to all formats
Configure Courts sets up court numbers and availability so Good Game Sports can assign matches to courts.
Merge Divisions combines two or more divisions into one target division.
Manage Promo Codes opens the promo code manager so you can create, edit, and deactivate discount codes.

Settings for specific formats
Set Opt-In Deadline is for leagues only. It sets how far in advance players must opt in before each round starts. Hosts can also add opt-in reminders so players are notified before the deadline. For the full workflow, see League opt-in.
Check-In Configuration is for non-league events only. It controls whether players must check in before play starts.
Team Lineup Configuration is for team formats only, including 24-hour and MLP league formats. Use it to set how many lines each team matchup includes. For more detail, see Configure team lineups.
Team Scoring Configuration is for team formats only. It controls team scoring rules and who can enter scores.
Team Event Configuration is for team formats only. It controls whether players can create teams, whether free agents are allowed, and related team setup options. See Team creation and captain settings and Free agent settings.
Ladder League Configuration is for ladder league variants only. It controls how far players move up or down and partner match behavior for doubles ladders.
GGS registration applicability
These settings are not gated by GGS registration. They are all based on the format you picked when you created the event.

What to set up next
After you finish Event Settings, continue with event creation in Creating an Event in GGS or review related format-specific setup in Configuring custom round labels.
