That's right, ladies and gentlemen; yours truly has now finally implemented a way for your characters to get paid for all of their hard work! We now have a marks system in place, and this is how it all works...
For each good, valid post you make, you earn 2 marks. By "good and valid" we mean just that - it can't be completely random. Simple, right? Obviously, the more you post, the more you earn...but we also have a monthly stipend in place as well. Here's the breakdown:
The monthly stipend will be calculated using your highest-ranking character, and not the total number of characters you have overall. Of course, we do ask that you get ALL of your characters out there and post on a regular basis - if you don't work, you don't get paid. Simple, right? (Yes, for those of you who still have Candidates and Weyrlings - we'll reward you accordingly for actively participating in your lessons.)
Now you're probably asking yourself, what will I do with these marks? We're currently working on building a shop where you can purchase all sorts of goodies and extras - and yes, your players can even run their own shops if they choose! Simply keep track of your transactions, and we'll let our head shopkeeper take care of the rest.
