While AOJ aims to be a non-profit community, we do still have many expenses to cover.
Chartering games generally has extra costs such as buying or making props, renting vehicles to transport equipment, deposits for field chartering, up front expenses, cancellation fees, upkeep of equipment, rental equipment, cleaning costs etc. That is without the cost of the homepage and storage space for AOJ equipment.
Donations generally go towards negating these costs to make hosting and organising games financially sustainable for our leaders. However some people prefer to avoid donating.
AOJ Elite Membership will help us to help provide you a better experience while giving something back to our most loyal members.
For ¥2,500 per year, you can join any charter game, redeem your 10% discount during checkout and know that all while you are an Elite Member you will pay less than regular members as well as contributing to make games better for everyone. Regular attendance and Elite Membership will also help us to not only make charter games more sustainable, but also increase the frequency we are able to host them.
In addition to 10% off of game fees, we can also offer other incentives if the membership proves popular with our regular members.
* Membership only applies to charter/private games hosted by AOJ
Elite members will received a 10% discount off every charter game we host all while their subscription is active. In addition, further discounts will be available on other aspects of our games.
All Elite Members will receive our exclusive patch with red lettering. Only Elite members will receive this patch to differentiate the elite members. (Regular white text patch is also available for sale to regular members)
We understand that sometimes work and daily life can get in the way of our hobbies. That's why the first cancellation for each year will not be charged if done within 2 weeks of the event. In addition, further cancellations will be 50% less of the usual fees.
