YouTube giveaways have always been a huge thing on Roat Pkz, unfortunately, some players have made fake giveaways from time to time or not paid out the winners.
YouTubers are now forced to create and put up the items beforehand and the winner is then automatically picked by the server, which means there are no rigged giveaways or duplicate entries.

This also limits giveaways to 1 entry per mac address!

How To Create A Giveaway

I will explain below how you can create a giveaway. You must be a YouTuber to create one, if you don't have the rank and still want to create one, please contact staff and they can whitelist you.

Creating a Giveaway

To create a giveaway you must enter the Create tab and press Create A Giveaway. When creating a giveaway you can either create a YouTube Video one or a Livestream one, for this example, we'll do a YouTube Video one.

To create a giveaway you must enter the Create tab and press Create A Giveaway
When you have everything set up click Create Giveaway
  • YouTube Video: You can run the giveaway for longer and link a video to it, when you link a video to it - the video will be displayed in the Giveaway Tab. Viewers also receive a Vote Mystery Box when they join the giveaway (refer code).
  • Livestream: You can not link a video to that giveaway + it will be noticeably shorter. You can always pick a winner whenever you want! (minimum 10 entries to pick a winner)
  • Winners: You can set the winners to 1-10 (based on how many items you're giving away).
  • Length: The length is the total amount of time the giveaway will take. 1 hour after that timer runs out the winner will be automatically picked. You can also manually spin the winner(s)!

When you have everything set up click Create Giveaway!

After you create a giveaway, it will look something like this
During the giveaway, you can always click on Pick a Winner and spin the winner on your own. This is very fun and very much suggested during live stream giveaways!
  • The first thing you want to do now is record your video intro/outro and tell people to do ::giveaway and enter your code, gretar1869 in this case!
  • You can now start your giveaway by clicking on Start Giveaway, It is recommended to do this before you upload your video! That way you make sure players can join it as soon as the video goes live!
  • After you've uploaded your video you should click on Link Vid and link your video.
  • After the giveaway has started you can either cancel the giveaway or pick a winner!

Note: You can only cancel a giveaway that has less than 10 entries or has not been started.
