CHI PLAY 2026 Full Papers AC Volunteering Form

Please fill out this form by January 22nd, 2026 if you are interested in serving as an Associate Chair for the CHI PLAY 2026 conference program committee - the ACM SIGCHI-sponsored conference on Player-Computer Interaction with papers published in the journal PACMHCI Games Track. ACs are members of the CHI PLAY community that have a PhD and have previous experience reviewing and/or publishing at the CHI PLAY conference. Please note that generally, as an AC, you are expected to find two external reviewers for each paper that you are assigned as a primary AC (1AC) and ensure that they will submit their review on time. You will also be required to write a meta-review for each of your 1AC papers. As a secondary AC (2AC) you will be expected to submit a full detailed review yourself. In total, serving on the CHI PLAY PC will involve finding around 10-14 reviewers, writing 5-7 meta-reviews as 1AC, and writing 5-7 2AC reviews. ACs will also need to manage the second round of reviews if their assigned paper(s) are invited for Revise & Resubmit for full papers track. We expect ACs to attend an online Calibration and Training meeting (tentatively 24 & 25 Feb), as well as attend synchronous discussions in Round 1 (tentatively scheduled April 8 & 9), and if necessary after Round 2 reviews. If you have any questions, please reach out to the paper chairs ([email protected]).
