Board Thread:Alliance Recruitment/@comment-25446223-20151018144523

Athena's Fury is recruiting. We are an alliance focused on the sharing of FAW, though there are expectations of a certain minimum level of activity for ultimate alliance battles. We are currently Rank 20 with a level 20 gold alliance hall. We have 4 open slots. Requirements (applicants must fulfill all of the following):

1. We are all on skype/LINE (text only) for communication and although members are required to have access to skype/LINE to help facilitate coordination, you aren't required to use skype or LINE regularly. However if a message is placed on the Notice Board asking all members to check skype or LINE, they are expected to do so. Upon joining please message me on skype/LINE so I can add you to my contacts list and the alliance chatroom.

2. Donate to all 3 goddesses every day.

3. A moderately reliable aw kill deck at a minimum. A fawk deck is optional.

4. Share FAW with the alliance until advanced elemental hall opens up. Sent FAW should have more than 90% health so that other members at least have a chance of getting in. This doesn't mean every single FAW you find or a certain number per day or “only” to the alliance, just that members are expected to share and help each other out. Once advanced EH opens up you're free to do as you please with your FAW however most members still send FAW out if not ranking.

5. Share LAW with the alliance. members are expected to encounter a LAW at least once every 48 hours (subject to change as i know LAW spawn rate is not fully established yet), going off this number you could safely say we average 15 LAW a day with 30 members but again this is usually a lot higher than 15 LAW in 24 hours and is just a bare minimum. Also refrain from using multiple BP on a LAW to ensure the maximum number of alliance members can join, but if the LAW is still alive after 10 minutes then you are free to use as many BP as required to kill her.

6. Members are expected to maintain an overall average of at least 250 AW per week and share the FAW they find from those AW with the alliance. This is considered a minimum level of participation; if you have the time to rank in the top 50 you should have the time to be able to share a bit more with the alliance. This is an overall average of expectations, if a person sends heavily for 1 event then relaxes a bit for the next, that's okay.

250 AW per week works out to an average of 36 AW per day. Considering a player with 16 max bp sleeping 9 hours a day potentially gets 92 bp for free, we don't feel that this is asking for too much.

7. All players should participate in a minimum of “30%” of alliance ultimate battles. This will be measured by calculating the number of free battles available for an AUB, taking 30%, and comparing the result to a player's wins PLUS losses at the end of the event. While I appreciate the fact that the timezones for AUB suck for many of us 2 of the AUB windows should be accessible to most players and if it really comes down to it the player can burn a few rods to get their number of wins and losses up, as players are given several free rods from battle victories and points. For the most recent  alliance ultimate battles  there were 23 battles. If a person were to participate in 2 on the weekend and 1 on the weekday, that's 9 battles, or 39%. Obviously if the server goes down for 1 or more battles, the minimum amount of participation required will be adjusted accordingly. Due to the time zones involved for AUB, we are not particularly AUB focused however we average 90 VP each AUB in one way or another.

8. All members must use some sort of semi consistent name. If you are constantly changing your name to things like "don't send", "bad r8", "send back", "trade pls" ect. it makes it difficult to keep track of who is sharing FAW with the alliance.

9. Applicants should have a rank all time better than 1,000.

If a member who is of good standing is going to miss several days due to exams, work, vacation, real life emergency, ect. that's fine though they should message Riisu in Skype or LINE if possible. Absentee time does have limits as I have to balance the needs of 29 members versus the needs of the 1 member, so trips lasting more than a week may put a strain on membership unless you have made major contributions to the alliance in some capacity.

Allowances can be made for players who have made major contributions to the alliance (particularly for members who spend rods during the later parts of AUB). Please note that allowances are not exceptions, a player who has earned a lot of wins for the alliance could be excused for only donating 75 rares over the course of 30 days instead of 150, or 15% participation in AUB instead of 30%, but that doesn't mean they can do zero.

Any questions? Feel free to add me on LINE (ID:5xtri) or Skype (reece.jackson8)
