What do I have to do to get moved up in chain? I know this is a casual chain but I haven't logged onto more than 2-3 mil xp since i been in chain. So that tells me that I'm over a bunch of mules or people that don't hunt much. Hmm I may be wrong. As of today I have 923 followers 3 of which are active vassals. Wow

Chada, I'm feeling the same thing. I'm starting to contemplate the food chain.

Something is also quite bizzar with the % listed on the page. One day, I logged in to 1.5 mil, I immediatly went out and made over 20 mil. My % was 115%... I'm not sure if that's based on a week or what, but... it sure is strange.

Yeah, I think we need a 'reshuffle'.

My vassal is level 91 according to the stats page, Chada is 97, I'm 97.

The '5 levels over your patron' rule doesn't really seem to be working when you have to pass your patron by 250+ million xp. :?

In order to move up in the chain, you need to out level yoru patron by 5 levels.

Example

Player B is level 83 and is sworn to Player A at level 86. After a month of playing, Player B gets to level 96 and player A is only at 91. Player B will be noted by me, that is part of my job, or another manager to be moved up in the chain. But realisticaly, if are outleveling your patron, that means he doesnt hunt as much or not at all even and then when you get promoted to his patron, you will not see much more added XP. You need to be patient and when there are plenty of hunting players under you, you will get good XP.

It is all where you are at in the chain and who hunts.

I have two Players in the chain, Neue Regel (110) and Atomic Punk (77). For a while there, Atomic Punk was receivign more XP than Neue was. Atomic had 3 players below him in a race to outlevel one another. I was logging on to 8-10 million a day. and only 6-7 a million a day with Neue. All three got promoted and now Atomic is only receiving 1-2 million a day. His new vassals are slackers now :).

So really, it is just a matter of being in the right place in the chain with plenty of people hunting.

We do not like to see players place people in the chain that do not produce XP. We call that leeching. We try to be compationated but at times I am afraid we do have some leeches. It is up to them to really either be honest and remove themselves, or start producing some XP. Since this is a none quota chain, we dont enforce any policy, allthough I would like to at times.
