Game Channels & Threads Overview
Choose a workflow, prepare schedules/assignments, use privacy, and delete safely.
Choose one workflow
- Channels: standalone Discord channels placed under a category.
- Threads: lighter-weight conversations created from the current channel.
Do not create both for the same week unless the league intentionally wants both.
Watch the game channels and threads tutorial.
Shared prerequisites
- Complete weekly schedule exists on NeonSportz.
- Every participating user is approved and assigned to the correct team.
- Bot is installed.
- Acting user and bot have required Discord permissions.
- Naming pattern is decided.
- Default message is configured if desired.
- Correct week is selected.
Naming patterns
Use the command’s documented placeholders/options. Keep names short enough for Discord and avoid characters Discord replaces. Preview the first created name before assuming every matchup will fit.
Privacy
Private spaces rely on member-to-team assignments and Discord permission overwrites. A Discord nickname alone is not enough; the Discord ID must match the approved NeonSportz user.
Madden and CFB differences
- Madden schedule comes from imports and supports update workflows based on played results.
- CFB schedule is entered manually.
- Command prefixes are
/channelsand/threadsfor Madden. - CFB prefixes are
/cfbchannelsand/cfbthreads.
Continue with Madden Game Spaces or CFB Game Spaces.
Destructive actions
Delete commands remove Discord content. Channel deletion may also remove the containing category. Closed/deleted content cannot be restored by NeonSportz. Verify week and options before sending.
