Dischord: RevisedFollow

Here's the deal:

A While back, Me and my friend Nisaren attempted a Dynamis Shell, We rushed into it, and it was a total disaster, We had few members because we didn't get the word out, because I was under the impression of "Shouting = Bad" So it was all word of mouth by current linkshell members, and them getting their Friends.

I'm trying to revive Dischord, Anyone interested, by all means. Post here, or contact me in game on my character: Naeo

Rules are simple:
*Hourglass is split cost.
*Singles are auto-drop
*100s are lot by the leaders, and kept for those trying to advance a relic.
*AF is lot by search comment.
**Status for AF Lots: @1: 70+ on job in comment. @2 65-69 on job in comment @3, 64- on job Lotting, or in bad standing in shell (Missing runs without advanced notice, lotting on singles, or just plain bad attitudes that make everyone annoyed)

Temp Forum can be found here: http://dischord.14.forumer.com/index.php
until i can get a real one up.

I'm debating on Monday / Thursday as Dynamis Nights so it doesn't greatly interfere with my schooling / Possible Endgame plans. This way Both me and Nisa can be at both runs.

Qinny, I believe you decided on splitting the total currency between people who paid their split of the Mil to get in.

It would kinda suck to pay your split to enter then watch certain people get lucky on the autodrop and get 3-5 currency while you get Zilch.

Naeo, IMO, if your going to charge people a split of the cost of glass, they should get something out of it. If not, you attendance will be quite spuradic and will give nobody incentive to show up. Not everyone is looking to go the route of the Relic. I know you are, so this is your incentive and thats awesome, but what about the people who dont have particular AF at the city your doing that day?

They will put out 50-90K for example and have no AF possibilities and no currency guarantee and most likely a handfull of deaths until you all get more experienced and need to find an exp party afterwards.

I think your idea is nice and helps a lot of people do Dynamis that have never done it BUT your rules seem a bit too much in favor of your Relic and not enough towards the people who will finance the opportunity.

Actually... your idea of splitting the Currency isn't a bad one O.o may I adopt that? i'll use it instead of auto-drop. That way everyone makes -atleast- their price for the split hour glass back :o


and Phyree, you should join. I'll make hot gay babies with you.


on a side note, since most HNM shells require sea now a days, i'm thinking of starting on myself...because Snoll kicks my spoony ***.

Naeo - Glad to see that you are starting it up again. I know we had tried but it seemed as it wasnt in the clouds. Like Qinny, I need to be able to do Dyna on Saturdays so if Tuesdays would work I am all over it. Either as BLM or NIN.

And the idea of splitting all currency, save 100's, works very well. Let me know if you need a hand.

Singles are auto-drop

I think you should consider having somebody collect all the currency and then distributing it among the members evenly so everyone gets something when they leave. But that was already said, ya?

100s are lot by the leaders, and kept for those trying to advance a relic.

This is by far the single worst rule -- it's obvious that the person leading the linkshell is looking to use the linkshell to obtain a relic weapon. If that isn't the case, it sounds a lot like it. I wouldn't join a dynamis linkshell with this kind of system; you'd have to pick whoever receives these one hundred pieces by favoritism. That is, after you get your due. I wouldn't suggest this, because eventually you'll tick somebody off. Or a lot of somebodies. I can see this being a big problem for your linkshell unless you come up with a system to gauge dedication and award one hundred pieces to the proper people.


I hope it works out for ya :)

Ferra, it's actually a mild DKP system. 100s are worth 10 points, each city dynamis is worth 2 points, Glacier's worth 3, Xarca, 5.

there's no "Oh, you have one, here take em all" it's "Oh, you have 20 points, we have <insert number> 100s. you can have two"

It's not playing Favorites, it's just bent on making sure everyone has an -equal- shot at relics, and those that are in it for the money, aren't making out with 100s in their pocket.

and I changed the auto-drop rule to the even distribute.

Kalos, I would love an extra hand.
