I'm confused about which event type I should be choosing for a game I want to run at a public venue. I can't seem to find any descriptions of each event type.

Dungeon Delve?
Game Day?
Home?
Retail?
Special Event Game Day?

Fundamentally, there are four types of events:

Convention (public event, large number of sessions)
Game Day (public event, smaller number of sessions than a convention)
Retail (public event at a retail location, otherwise similiar to a game day)
Home (small private event, assumed to be at a home, does not appear on the public Event Calendar)

It sounds like you're looking at choosing Game Day as your type of event.

A Delve is not a type of event, but a type of adventure (a one-shot adventure, of which the RPGA publishes one each month).

A Special Event Game Day is, I believe, a particular adventure or series of adventures that are only offered for a single day or weekend, such as the Worldwide D&D Game Days.

Thanks.

Sorry for the double-post, the website wouldn't load properly because of too many redirects, ie. crappy code.
