There have been some standard procedures for the Alliance Events, and sticking to them means that there is less confusion at the event you choose to host! So here they are:
The " Host " Guild will be responsible for
1. Setting up a time/date for the event.
2. Making sure all materials/prizes/necessary items are on hand.
3. That the guidelines/rules are posted well in advance of the event. The more eyes that go over the rules, the more suggestions you get and the more promotion of you event happens. This also gives the alliance leader time to recommend changes that will help the event run as smoothly as possible the first time out.
4. Advertising/reminding ( not spamming ) alliance people/chat in the days prior to the event. Basically building up " hype or buzz" to get people interested and excited about joining.
Standard " Pay out" system
When someone wins, they open trade to receive their prize.
The host will fill the slots in the trade window with items. Could be green or gold weapons, pets, consumables, runes, materials or what have you. Cash can also be offered in the trade window as one possible option.
The winner then gets to pick from the items shown. Some events may offer two items, but others will only pay out one per round. He/she tells the prize giver what they are selecting. (Of course playing the lotto, the winner takes all donations)
At this point the prize giver alters the trade. The best way I know how to do it is to move the undesired items to another slot in inventory. That just pulls them right out of the trade window so you can submit again.
*In cases where there are multiple rounds to the game/event the winner needs to pick and have their decision announced before the next round starts
