Points: Overview
Clan points are awarded to clan members for attending events, creating media for the web site, completing assigned tasks, topping the leaderboard in skills and generally helping out the clan. As you gain more clan points your clan rank will increase. A new Loose Cannon clan member starts with 0 points and can gain a maximum of 100000 points. As a clan member gains more points their clan rank will increase.
Points: Events
The wilderness trips require greater numbers for better results and therefore turning up to a wilderness trip earns 10 points. The House Party event is another important clan meeting and is also worth 10 points. All other clan events in the future will award 10 points.
Points: Site Media
The Loose Cannons web site is where details of new events and news and all other interesting Loose Cannon information can be found. Creating artwork, movies, games and anything that gets clan members viewing the site will be rewarded as the site needs to be visited to be of any use.
Screen Shots
Send in your screen shots for the Gallery to earn 10 points for each screen shot used. Try to keep it original, interesting or funny. Screen Shots need to be emailed to beehidon@yahoo.co.uk in order to be used on the site. For the best quality image follow these steps to create a usable screen shot.
1. Press the print screen button on your keyboard. 2. Open up the program MS Paint. 3. File - New then click on blank picture and edit – paste. 4. Save the file as YourChosenName.bmp. 5. Email the picture as an attachment and leave your Runescape Character Name so I know who to give points to. You may also think up a caption for your screen shot which will be used, or I will think of one myself.
Artwork
Artwork is easy to create and therefore 25 points will be gained for each picture used on the site. Originality is the key, no matter how good or bad you may think the picture is. Hand drawn then scanned pictures are just as acceptable as pictures created by paint programs on the computer. Try to keep the pictures large as less quality is lost when shrinking a picture to fit on the page instead of enlarging a picture, where allot of quality is lost. Again Email the pictures to beehidon@yahoo.co.uk.
Runescape Movies
If drawing pictures isn’t your thing then why not create a movie. Movies are worth 50 points for each one used on the site. There is allot of Player killing videos on the site already which lacks variety so try to use original subjects for your movies. e.g. quests, fights, stories or any other different subject.
X Files
The RS X Files is a page that will continue to grow and grow with feedback from the clan members. There will be information created by the clan used on various pages like the LC Money Making Guide, Clan Members Biographies in the graveyard and much more. Again email details when appropriate to beehidon@yahoo.co.uk
Other Media
There are other types of media that may end up on the site in future like games and who knows what? I will update this page to reflect these new media if and when it is needed.
Points: Assigned Tasks
Assigned Tasks are entrusted to members by God Rank Clan Members. These tasks usually involve gathering a certain amount of a resource in exchange for Clan points and money. The money received will equal the value of the resources gathered.
In some cases tasks are not always completed or cancelled completely. The incomplete tasks will earn a portion of the points and money relevant to how much has been gathered.
Tasks are not always available but there’s no harm in asking.
A few example tasks from Beehidon:
1000 Gold ores. 500000 cash + 250 Clan points
1000 Swamp Tar. 100000 cash + 100 Clan points
Points: Leaderboard Bonus
The Leaderboard is for all clan members to see how they stand in comparison to the rest of the clan. Hopefully this will encourage competition and clan members training up their skills to a higher level.
God Ranks no longer receive points so they are excluded from the Leaderboard bonus and all other clan point bonuses. Having the maximum level on a skill also excludes you from the Leaderboard bonus.
New recruits are also excluded from Leaderboard bonus, they don’t gain points until they have at least attended 1 event or gained 10 points.
The highest position on the Leaderboard, excluding those who have max level or God Rank, for each skill will earn 10 points every week when the clan stats are updated.
Points: Maximum Level Bonus
Getting a skill to 99, the maximum level, is some achievement and therefore should be rewarded. A 3000 points bonus is awarded to clan members who have trained up their skill to the maximum level 99. This does not mean that new recruits that have 99 on skills already will receive this bonus. Only clan members that have been in the clan for 3 months and have gained 10 points will be able to receive this bonus when they get a new maximum level 99 skill. God Ranks and new recruits are excluded from this bonus.
Points: Training Bonus
Similar to the Leaderboard bonus there is a Training bonus, this bonus is greater and harder to achieve. 50 points are earned after each weekly clan stats update for the clan member that has gained the most xp in that week. God Ranks and new recruits are excluded from this bonus.
Points: Promotion
This is not always available, yet in the past when there have been too few active God Rank clan members to manage the clan, I have promoted the highest ranked and most active members to God Rank.
Ranking: Overview
The Loose Cannon Ranks are a mark of trust and loyalty. There are no rewards as such for gaining high ranks, they are more like responsibilities. Some of the ranks grant access to privileges that low ranks will be excluded from.
Ranking: Ranks
The Ranks in order from lowest to highest, T is trimmed, G is gold Trimmed. These ranks are also reflected in the clan chat. |
