Starting in April, Baja will have a new participation/promotion system to award
players based on their participation in events, both EM and City run.
At this time, Baja has the "Town Guards" a system that was put into place by Seppo,
and are a long standing tradition on Baja.
Since Seppo retired, the "Town Guard" sadly has been neglected and it is my wish
to revitalize them. The current "Town Guard" system reflects only on the City of
Britain. The new system will allow other cities and citizens to participate. With the
introduction of Governor's and the King's Council, the new system will be called
"King's Elite Town Guard" . Their purpose is to protect not only the King in times of
trouble, but also the Governor's and citizens of their respected towns. They will also
be called upon in the event of any major happenings regarding the safety of Britannia.
The old "Town Guard" will reflect these changes.
To become a recruit and work towards advancement, you must have citizenship in
one of the virtue cites or Vesper. The city may be of your choosing. You must also
have at least the tier of Commended in city of choice to become inducted.
The key to advancing in Rank in the "King's Elite Town Guard" will be based on
participation in major events, reports to your Governor's and they to the King of any on going
troubles in the lands, active RP'ing of duties,and attendance at city functions.
Promotion Ceremonies will be held approximately every 6 months.

Below are listed Ranks:

*Recruit: New induction into the King's Elite Town Guard. Must attend a set
number of EM events, show desire for service, before acceptance as recruit.
Requires the title "Commended" in city of choice

Governor's Meetings. You will have scouted out potential threats
in lieu of battles and report to Corporal of your town.

recruits . Must have attended EM events and Governor's meetings.

You will be able to earn points in various ways:

1) Attending EM Events: There will be a roll call of all Kings Elite Town Guard prior to event
and at the end of event.

2) Attending Governor's Town Events: Governor's will need to submit to the King their
plans for Town Events. This is to keep records
in the case of point distribution if applicable.

3). Turning in a report recap of the EM event via email.
E Mail must be received no later than 24 hrs after event, If you are not
present for roll call, but attend the event no later than 10 min in..you MUST make
ME aware that you are there via in game chat. Failure to do so will result in you
being considered absent from the event and no points accrued.

4) Attendance at Governor's meetings. Attendance is not mandatory but will help
you advance in rank and keep your rank. Failure of attendance to ANY meetings
will result in suspension of points and possiblity of being down graded in rank.

5) Points needed to advance in ranks are not given out as common Knowledge.
They will be harder to obtain as you progress in rank.


6) Points maybe awarded for meritorious duties. examples: Volunteering for dangerous
expeditions and scouting party during times of strife.

7) Role play of these positions will add point value.

8) Members of the current "Town Guard", will not be required to start
as new recruits. To maintain their current rank, they must participate in
EM events, attend Governor's meetings and other activities. Once they have
proven this by acquiring a set number of points their titles will be changed
to reflect the new "King's Elite Town Guard" title.
.
9) In the event there are mutiple same higher Ranking Elite Guards, their duties will be
divided between the lesser ranking members of their respected Town.



On a Final note:
This is a learning, progressive attempt to provide more interaction and enjoyment between you as players, Governor's, King and myself .
Any or all of the above is subject to change if there are issues or conflicts found in
its concept and trial.
Baja has a rich history and well played roleplay community. Not only will the King's Elite
Guard be for storylines created by myself, but it is also a chance for Governor's to make use of and create active town events utilizing the King's Elite Guard and adding to that history.

I love love love! this but Two questions :eek:

The first being about...

4) Attendance at Governor's meetings. Attendance is not mandatory but will help
you advance in rank and keep your rank. Failure of attendance to ANY meetings
will result in suspension of points and possibility of being down graded in rank.


Wouldn't the last line contradict the Not Mandatory part.


My second question is.... Can Governors as well be apart of the King's Elite Town Guard? If not ill just have to pull out my boots and kick Lt.Snuggles butt until he RPs with me ^_^

Sadie: the attendance "not mandantory" is stated there, because I don't expect perfect attendance at every meeting, sometimes it's totally impossible because of RL issues to attend. Failure to attend ANY meetings is a different horse, or you come to the first few, and then stop, that is where the suspension of points or downgrading of rank comes into play.
As far as Governor's being able to join, thats a tricky bit there.As Governor's they are in "charge" of the city and its citizens in so much as the rank of the title of Governor. I think it would be a bit contradictory for them also to be in ranks as a King's Elite Town Guard.

Amber: I do plan on scheduling a meeting, It will be moreso towards the end of this month. I'll post the exact date closer to time. And I am excited about this also!
