Holiday Incentive!


As Althanas' gift to our awesome writers, we're going to offer a holiday posting incentive for the next month! In character (IC) posts from December 9th through January 9th (up to 11:59 pm EST) will receive an immediate bonus at the end of the promotional period, equivalent to 5% EXP of your current level-up requirement per post.

How much is that, exactly? If you're Level 0 it's 100 EXP per IC post; Level 1, 150 EXP; and so on (here is the Level Chart (http://althanas.com/world/faq.php?faq=exp#faq_introexp) for reference). And what's more, you're eligible for the reward up to two entire level-ups! (Keep in mind that we're tallying all of the bonuses from your current level, even if you level up from the reward.)

This is on top of what EXP you may earn through judgment of the threads once they're finished, too. Crazy, right?!

That means that if you've been putting off a solo or considering starting a thread with someone new, this is the perfect time for it! Visit the Role-player's Corner (http://www.althanas.com/world/forumdisplay.php?13-The-Role-Player-s-Corner) to see who's looking for what; we have both new and established writers who are seeking threads.

To participate, you must reply to this thread with a link to your activity. Please make one post per person and simply list the threads you've posted in during the timeframe (no need to update for every post, unless you posted in a new thread). We'll be checking activity through other means, but this will help make sure we don't miss anything.

Disclaimer: Awards are up to the discretion of the staff and if we see people abusing it, such as splitting posts into multiple shorter ones, we may reduce the size of your bonus accordingly. A general rule of thumb is a solid IC post should be in the range of at least 300-500 words, but this is not a hard restriction and thoughtful small posts –– including those in the Citadel –– are still included in the incentive.


So have a wonderfully happy Hanukkah, Christmas, Festivus, New Year, Unbirthday, or whatever the heck you think is worth celebrating, and get writing!

EDIT: List updated; and some of the links have my alts in them.

At the moment only the last post of Cake! falls in the time line, but dammit I'm counting it.

Question though. At the moment I am quite close to the next level, would I only get 5% exp on my current level or would it be that I got 5% up until I get to the next level, then 5% for lvl 5? I know it would be a pain, but considering that after two posts I'll level up, and there is a 300xp difference I thought I'd ask...

To keep things simple, I'm crediting the EXP to the accounts that made the posts. If you'd like her to receive some EXP, post with her account.

Sorry, but I'll just be doing it from the current level –– activity's picked up quite a bit and it'd double the amount of work to split it amongst levels.

The incentive is now over! If you forgot to report your activity in this thread OR the total number of posts I've listed for your account below is incorrect, post a new comment in this thread to correct your bonus. (I'm human, I make mistakes, so don't be afraid to speak up. I did catch a few stray posts that weren't linked in this thread and added them, but by no means do I think I caught all of the stragglers.)

Here is the final tally. Thanks for your participation, everyone, there was a much bigger turnout than expected and that's freaking awesome!
