Official rules: Boss Nights

Free skill contests with prizes in XS.

1. No purchase necessary, free entry

Boss Nights are free to enter. You never pay to enter, to rank, or to be paid. Buying anything in the shop gives no advantage in a Boss Night and does not change your chance of winning. Paid boosts and stat potions are switched off for everyone while a Boss Night is running.

2. Who can enter

You must be 18 or older and able to receive a prize where you live. Void where prohibited by law. You need a verified X handle (post-to-verify on XStory), a linked wallet, and a handle that has been verified for at least 24 hours when the event ends. Guests can play along and appear on the board but cannot win prizes.

3. How winners are picked

This is a contest of skill. The server counts the damage each player deals to the boss from the game's own combat results; nothing a player's device reports can change it. Players are ranked by total damage dealt. A tie goes to the player who reached that total first, then to handle order. Prizes go down the table to the best-ranked players who meet every requirement, so an ineligible player does not block the next one.

To qualify you must have dealt at least 5% of the boss's HP in damage, or stayed alive in the fight for 60 seconds. Random drops never decide a prize.

Some prizes go to a daily or weekly leaderboard instead of a single Boss Night. For those the server ranks verified players by the score shown on that board (level reached, monsters hunted, fastest boss kill, or a plain daily score). The same eligibility rules apply, a tie goes to whoever reached the score first, and the number of places and the prize for each place are posted on the payouts page before the event starts. A small, capped amount of coin may also drop at random during normal play; that is not a contest prize and it never changes who wins a ranked prize.

4. Prizes

Boss Night: The Plaza Golem, starting 2026-10-17 01:00 UTC, lasts 30 minutes.

While XStory runs on a test network, prizes are test coins with no cash value.

5. Timing

Results are fixed about a minute after the event ends. Prizes are sent to your linked wallet automatically, usually within minutes. Every payout is listed on the payout ledger with its transaction link. If a payout is delayed, the ledger says so.

6. Disqualification

We remove players who use bots, macros, scripts, modified clients, multiple accounts, or any other way to gain an edge. Accounts whose input pattern looks automated are not eligible. One wallet can be linked to one handle. Our decision on eligibility is final.

7. Taxes

You are responsible for taxes on prizes. If you are in the United States and win more than $600 in a calendar year, we will ask for a W-9 before we can pay further prizes, and we may report the value to the IRS.

8. Wallets and risk

We never hold your coins. Linking a wallet only proves you own it by signing a message; it sends nothing and costs nothing. We cannot reverse a transfer, so link a wallet you control.

9. Changes and contact

We can change or cancel an event before it starts, or void it if cheating or a bug affects the result. Questions: support@xstory.party.
