Dungeon Rules

FolsomFringe'09/smOdyssey's 21 Playspace Rules

1. No cameras, tape recorders, or recording or transmitting instruments of any kind are allowed. We strongly urge you not to bring cell phones with you into the dungeon. Accessing or using a cell phone in any manner within the dungeon is not permitted. This includes but is not limited to placing calls, answering calls, checking for messages/caller id, text messaging and opening the phone to check the display. If you wish to use your cell phone please do so outside of the dungeon. All watch alarms, phones, pagers, PDAs and other electronic equipment must be powered off or in silent mode when inside the dungeon.

2. No illegal activities. Do not engage in any illegal activities anywhere on the hotel premises. No exchange of moneys for sessions. No drugs, inhalants, or other intoxicants are allowed. No alcohol is allowed in the dungeon or social area. If approached for these purposes, report this immediately to a DM. If the Senior DM deems that a person is under the influence of drugs or alcohol while in the play area, they will be removed from the premises and NOT allowed to return. No refunds shall be given.

3. You must be at least 19 years of age to attend this party.

4. Please do not use or wear heavy scents. Smoking is not allowed anywhere inside the building.

5. Never touch someone else, their toys, props or property without asking and receiving permission. Remember that NO means NO.

6. Keep conversation very quiet in the play area.

7. The decision of the Dungeon Monitors (DMs) are FINAL. Any person(s) not responding to a DM's instructions shall be removed from the premises and NOT allowed to return. No refunds shall be given.

8. All Play must be Safe, Sane & Consensual. When in doubt, ask a Dungeon Monitor (DM). If it is possible that your scene may cause a DM to interrupt you, talk with the DM before you begin. For example, if you are planning an intense scene and/or your bottom plans to use words like "NO" or "STOP" and these are NOT your "Safewords" then please tell the DM before you begin.

9. The use of "safewords" is REQUIRED. In emergency situations where outside assistance is required, "SAFEWORD" and "RED" are our versions of calling for help. Do not abuse or misuse these words. If the bottom is gagged, hooded or in some other way unable to verbally indicate a safeword they must be provided a "drop" safeword.

10. Wax and Liquid Latex play. You may use crock pots to heat your wax; candles or other open flames are not permitted. Please confine such play to specified areas. Please provide blankets or tarps to contain spills and minimize fire risk. PLEASE CLEAN UP AFTER YOURSELF.

11. Please do not bring nor attempt to use your own crosses, benches, tables, or other major playstation equipment. Only smOdyssey owned or pre-approved equipment may be used.

12. Blood Play (including needleplay): The dungeon floor is carpeted. Please bring tarps, blankets, or other coverings to ensure that the floor stays free of blood. Please bring teknicare, betadine, or other anti-infective, as well as band-aids or gauze as required.

13. smOdyssey highly recommends the use of barrier protection when engaging in intercourse, fingering or having oral/genital sex. All sexual activities must be contained within your play space (this includes protecting equipment from contamination). Safer sex supplies are provided for your use.

14. No food or drink (except bottled Water) is allowed in the play areas.

15. Be Clean: Protect the play surfaces during your play. CLEAN UP the area thoroughly afterwards.

16. No scat, water sports, open flame branding, open flame wax play, or fire play allowed. No lit candles or open flames of any kind are permitted in the dungeon. Medical branding devices which do not use an open flame may be used.

17. No guns or firearms allowed, either real or facsimiles.

18. Do not sit on the play equipment or in the playing spaces, unless you are playing. There are chairs in the spectator area for that purpose. Do not move chairs, tables or other furniture/equipment from the spectator or social areas into the play space. Do not congregate or socialize at play stations unless you are involved in a scene in progress. Spectators must always give way to players, even if it means leaving a play area.

19. Please be courteous and limit your sessions to 90 minutes when other guests are waiting to use a station.

20. Please do not play or engage in sexual activity in the recovery area or social area.

21. No whips (floggers, singletails, buggy whips, etc) longer than 5 feet in length (from cracker tip to handle) are allowed.
