Hello!
This competition is for low and mid-level alliance members and its purpose is to promote gaining xp and levels in order to become more effective and better fort fighters in the future.
I still haven’t completely planned the whole competition in my head, therefore any feedback is more than welcome, like always. If you can think how we can adjust the competition to make it fairer and more attractive, please do share your thoughts. Furthermore since I can’t pull the whole contest out from my own resources for more than 1-2 months, I would appreciate any donations in any form to help this project running if it turns out to be successful.
The competition will be divided in groups in order to make it fairer and more competitive for lower levels.

[i][u]Requirements - Notes[/u]: [/i]
1) In order to take part in the competition you have to reply to this thread saying so and share a screenshot with your level, your current xp and your amount of jobs finished (more instructions on how to do this will be shared later on) by telegram to me (Musagete). At the end of each week you will be asked to share a new screenshot with your new level and your new xp.
2) The players should take part or be available to be ranked in at least [u]5 fort fights per week[/u]. In case they don’t get in, the fort fight report that says that “all the places were taken” will be considered as participation.
3) The fort battles that will be counted towards this competition are LEGIT battles for small and primetimes. Not fort recaptures, multis, silly battles in general. You will be able to find the proper battles either by asking in your town or by checking the alliance topic.
4) The screenshots for the weekly / monthly gains will have to be taken approximately at the same time every week on late Sunday or early Monday time – This is to bypass the problems that might occur from people entering the competition from different timezones. This way we can ensure that 1 week is 1 week for everyone.
5) The prize is based on the groups at the beginning of the week / month. So if you level up during the week, you will still compete with those that are in the lower level group even if you level up.
6) There are rewards from levelling up from one group to the other (check Reward Groups) and competing groups (check Competing Groups).
I am available by telegram to provide guidance with xp gaining if you need help and you don’t know how to do it.
The contest will start next Monday, 00.00 ST. We have up to Saturday / Sunday to perfect the rules and to make it widely known to anyone that would possibly be interested in taking part.
Looking for your feedback,
Musa

[color=blue][b][size=14]How to take the screenshot[/size][/b][/color]
1. First of all you need a program to take screeenshots. Any program that provides you a link will do. If you don’t already own one, I suggest the following one: [url]https://app.prntscr.com/en/index.html[/url] . If you need further help to install the program, ask me or anyone other in the chat. The rest of the tutorial will be based on this application. If you have your own application, skip to step 7 and see how I want the screenshot to look like.
2. Open your game window.
3. On the top left corner of the game, you see your avatar (picture of you). Above your avatar you can see your name. Click on it.
4. Now you can see your profile. Go and click on your achievement points.
5. In the new window that pop ups, go and click on the “Statistics” tab. In that lovely tab (that other players can access too) you can find lots of nice info about your player in the current world. [size=10][i](Note of the writer: Yes I know there are other ways to reach this page. I just thought it’s nice for people to see how they can see their profile).[/i][/size]
6. Press the “Print Scr” button on your keyboard. If you are working on a laptop, you might need to use a combo of keys to achieve that (e.g. Fn + Print screen).
7. Your screen goes a bit grey. Now you can select the area you want to take a screenshot of. The area we need you to include is your avatar, the area under your chats (server time info) and the xp bar).
8. Use the “Pen” button and erase all the info we should not see. These include your nuggets used as well as how much money and nuggets you have. The final screenshot you will have will look like this:
[img]http://i.imgur.com/npXEBu2.png[/img]
(This is the link for a bigger copy of the image: [url]http://i.imgur.com/YPr02ts.jpg[/url])
9. Press Ctrl + D or press the “upload to prntscr.com” button.
10. On the bottom right of your monitor you will see a pop up window that says “Uploading image”. When you see the “Open” and “Copy” buttons, press “Copy”. The link is ready to be pasted.
11. Send me an ingame message with the link. You’re done!
Note: For contestants that go for the Duel Xp part of the competition, I need a screenshot of their "Duels as a challenger" in the same Statistics bar.
