Meet Quota or Get Booted. You Have Until Sunday Night

I posted one week ago the chain were still in effect. To date we have seen some very mixed results, including a lot of zeros on the stats page.

-------------------------------------------

Here's what we need you to do:

1) Run AC Stats, go hunt, and post some numbers on the quota page.

2) Check your stats on the quota page.
MAKE SURE TO SET THE FROM: FIELD ON THE STATS PAGE TO SHOW A DATE OF 20040303. That sets the quota window to include only the time since I announced the chains were still running.

3) Get into quota compliance before Sunday night at midnight EST.

-------------------------------------------

Zataki reset the quota calculations on the stats to reflect the 10% passup that is currently in effect in the game. Any hunting numbers you have on the chian page from before that change are not valid for quota anymore. WE ARE ONLY GOING TO COUNT THE QUOTA NUMBERS POSTED SINCE MARCH 03!!! If you aren't meeting quota by Sunday night, at midnight EST, expect removal orders to be posted early Monday morning.

The chains can still produce a good amount of XP for the chain members but it is more important than ever that everyone meets quota consistently. If you want to continue to be in the chain and get a certain amount of free XP (depending on which chain you join) you know what you have to do: make quota.

Besides posting any needed removal orders on Monday, we will start forming a new, much higher quota, chain on Monday. You can expect details and a signup page to be available on Monday also. BTW, if you are removed Monday for quota failure in one of the regular chains DO NOT expect to be placed into the higher output chain next week.

I set the date to 03/03/04, but now Nehori-na is showing up with all 0's, although I have been hunting during this time (as my Acstats page will attest to). Does it have anything to do with me being at the bottom of the chain?

I think so, yes. I'll check into it a little later. I imagine what is happening is that, with no chain vassal under you, you get 0 xp passed up from a non-existent chain vassal, therefore the database can't calculate a passup percentage for you.

Tus, regarding xp banks going away, they already do that anything. Every day, another day of your xp bank gets too old to count, and another new day of hunting is added to your quota window on the front end of it. So, 21 days from now every xp you have on the boards right now will have stopped being counted because they will have all aged out.

Just for clearifation, what do you mean by passing?

For the stats page to say passing or to have pushed 6 mil FC and 12 mil OH?

They should be the same thing Kero, except for the characters who show Pass, but who are showiing 0s.

If it turns out that the database numbers do NOT require 12million/OH and 6million/FC in order to show Pass

Passing with 0s for numbers will NOT be passing. If you are showing 0s on your stats, please contact a manager ASAP.

Still showing 0s on Monday = removal
Fail = removal
Old Data = removal

Showing Pass, along with numbers posted on the boards = still in :D

You're good. :)

The percentage numbers are going to be very different than they were before.

I'll check into it Anca.

I wasn't feeling well yesterday, so didn't do anything about quotas, new chains, and the like. I will try to take care of all of the above today.

Thanks :)

No kidding :shock:

Urrasa has 72% with a credit of 21 mil., I have 234% with a credit of 20 mil (using 20040303).

Should I attempt to understand that ?
