Title: Guilds: Cardinal, Material, and Spiritual Sign Ups
Post by: Shinki12345 on December 22, 2014, 03:22:25 am
There are 3 guilds:

 [ :time :aether :entropy :gravity ]Cardinal
 [ :fire :water :air :earth ]Material
 [ :light :darkness :life :death ] Spiritual

These guilds represent each individual element within them, as well as the way that each element functions together. People in guilds are expected to participate in various pvp events, and will likely be working towards achieving various accomplishments to reach whatever goal they set for themselves. So basically, you pvp a lot and get rewarded for being active.

At the moment, there is only one event going on, and that is guild leagues. Guild Leagues are basically a mixture between War and Leagues on vanilla, and often lead to some very intense battles. It will also be a big source of gaining Valor Points, which will be the guild currency used by individuals to gain new bonuses during their duels with opposing guilds.

If anyone wants sign up for guilds, simply post which one you want to join in this thread and I will add you here. Here is the current roster for each guild:

Cardinal :entropy :gravity :time :aether
  • kirbylover314
  • serprex
  • Lost in Nowhere
  • timpa
  • Chapuz
  • Bossitron

Material :earth :fire :water :air
  • Dawn_to_Dusk
  • Odinvangaurd
  • Coffeeditto
  • flyingcat aka fallingdog

Spiritual :death :life :light :darkness
  • Shinki12345
  • Mega Plini
  • Espithel
  • Fippe94
  • ji412jo

regarding new masters of each guild, would an idea be for a player to have to win 3-0 or 3-1 against an existing master (barring special restrictions, upgrade amounts, etc)

also, will there be other various classes? lieutenant, soldier, etc

Just because I don't really know where else to put this, if you join a guild, go into your profile and change "primary group" to that guild if you want your guild color to show up. Also, guilds have colors now. If you don't like your color, blame serp, he picked them out.

p.s. Awesome Guild is best guild.
Title: Re: Guilds: Cardinal, Material, and Spiritual

Another thing where I don't really know where else to put it:

I hereby swear off ever joining in any guild (or participating in any guild activities) besides awesomeguild. Also I am removing my blind status so I can see all your secret shit. I can't make sure I'm administering properly while remaining blind.

edit: the above swearing off applies to guilds in their current form. If things change substantially (in such a way that my previous all-seeing-ness does not provide any advantage), I may go re-blind before new secrets are established if I feel like participating and don't have to administer.


Speaking of administering, I *think* I unfucked the permissions clusterfuck, and I *think* guild leaders should all now be in individual leader groups that I *think* should have mod powers over their board. I *think* regular guild members should no longer have mod powers, and I *think* everybody should be able to see their own shit and nobody else's shit. Also, I *think* shinki should have mod powers over the basic guild board in addition to his guild, what with holding two jobs at the moment. If anyone notices that I think incorrectly on any of these things, let me know.

edit: just as a random comment for the future, I *think* the guild organizer group should have mod privileges over all the secret boards too, so if at some point organizer is separated from participant, that should be set up already and just need to be modified to give them the ability to *see* the secret boards.

In case anyone wants to use your guild colors for something, they are:

Cardinal #ff69b4
Material #752a2a
Spiritual #356035
Awesome purple

Also, the roster now has guild names in their colors.

Per shinki's request, d2d has been added as an additional Guild Organizer. Any questions about what that means beyond "he now has mod powers over the guilds board" should be directed to shinki.

I've been very busy these last few weeks and it will probably only get worse, but in about 5-6 weeks I should suddenly have a bunch of free time on my hands to spend on establishing quests as a real event.

Until then, I will be making threads and throwing out ideas here and there just so I don't forget about them, feel free to give feedback and I will likely respond within the next 1-12 hours.

In GL I can use the QPs I earned or I can use the QPs my guildies won too?

If the answer to this was yes, it'd be more conducive to not having each guild essentially have a single GL player

As I have had no need to go in and do anything in the guild boards since the original unfucking was completed, I have gone re-blind, so you're on your own. I will continue to sit out of guilds in their current form just to avoid any potential appearance of impropriety, but I may choose to participate when "seasons" change or when the next step of their evolution occurs or whatever other event makes it so that there's no benefit I could be gaining from having been able to look at yer seekrit shit in the past.

Also, awesomeguild is still best guild.

Awesome guild could be chroma? You can use any other guilds cards, but you can't use pillars/pends besides the ones in chroma.

Of course, seeing other peoples deck lists would be a serious advantage, so to even that out we could say that awesome guild gets a section that has to be open to the public and there deck lists they use have to be posted in their main deck thread.

Awesomeguild uses only awesomedecks with awesomecards in them.

Me kirby and FC all did a mini-event using fully upgraded guild decks to test out the possiblities of upgraded play. We did it like this: The winner of a game then faces the loser of the last game(the person sitting out) and then if they win against them, then they face the other person. First person to get 7 wins was victorious. I said there was a QP prize for the winner just BARELY, but I figured they both deserve a prize as well. Adding 1 :chroma QP to kirby, mine, and FC's owned quanta points, this won't be usable for anything yet, but it certainly looks cool.

Awesomeguild mocks your "restrictions". Awesomeguild can and will use anything awesome.

Also, I cannot see other people's deck lists anymore, and haven't had the need to go in to the secret boards to have looked at them since I originally finished organizing the boards, though as I said I will not be participating until a new "season" or substantive rules change occurs that will make it so people don't have to take my word about what I have looked at already. Awesomeguild only has the ability to see the awesomeguild board, not all the guilds - I had that ability due to the admin permissions group that I was using up until I replaced it yesterday with the guildblind permissions group that serp and fippe use.

If there comes a time that you have to view the topics for administration purposes, we can have the guild leaders save the OP with all the decks listed into a google doc or something then have them sweep it clean until finished with maintenance. So for all guild leaders, remember to keep any important posts from your thread in the OP so you can just copy paste.

Also, thats fine, I guess awesomeguild can just play whatever they want. I mean, I use almost exclusively guild decks in OL and I did just fine, so it really isn't THAT big of an advantage.

Yeah, there's no shortage of ways this can be handled without a problem. Being open about what's going on is one of the biggest ones, which is the reason for me posting about it at all. If a situation arises that requires some action, action will be taken in the way that causes the least problems.

awesomeguild cares not for rules, leagues, or other guilds. awesomeguild cares only for awesome.

FC actually went 5/0 in the beginning, then it ended upping 5/0 against them, then Kirby managed to get a few wins before I ended up getting the final win. It was fun doing upped, but I prefer unupped because upped is too fast.

In one week, I will be kicking everyone out of their guilds so that we can start moving forward with the next step in the guilds event. If you have anything in your secret section that you want to access between now and whenever people get put back into guilds, now's your chance to copy it.

Guild membership has been cleared. Your team of Guild Organizers are working diligently to develop the mechanisms for selecting new leadership (i.e. Trials). The GOs will notify you when that mechanism is put into place as well as the process for re-joining guilds as a non-leader.

Due to overwhelming awesomeness, AwesomeGuild membership has not been cleared.
