Rules
The above titles may be lost due to several circumstances.
- Leaving the House.
- Disgracing themselves.
- AWOL’ed.
- At the digression of the joint decision of the House Summit.
- Through competition as described below.
Point system:
Small scale competition:
1 point for participation
3 points for placing 3rd
5 points for placing 2nd
7 points for placing 1st
Large scale competition:
3 points for participation
7 points for placing in the top ten
13 points for placing 3rd
17 points for placing 2nd
25 points for placing 1st
General gaming:
1 point for a gaming loss
3 points for a gaming win
1 point + the number of posts written for an ACC loss
3 points + the number of posts written for an ACC win
Note: Small scale competitions include: BT and House competitions, Clan and DB wide competitions that require little effort or 2 pages or
less of writing. Pretty much your general activities.
Large scale competitions include: DB level tournaments, writing competitions that require 3 or more pages, GJWs, Vendettas, Clan
Feuds, or any other competition that may occur that the House summit agrees is on a large scale.
The titles fall into two categories. Major competition (Sheath, Shield, Sword) and General competition (Tactician, Weapon Master, Ace)
All holders of the title categories may hold one of each. All title holders must defend their title.
- Major competition title holders must participate in the level of competition they won their title in. For example, the holder of the Sheath title must participate in every multi-event House competition in order to keep the title no matter how many others hold the same title. The only exception is a valid LoA, abuse of this exception will be noted and dealt with. They must submit to at least half of the events to keep the title. If there are an odd number of events then the number that must be participated in will be rounded down. i.e. If there are 5 events in a House competition then the Sheath title holder only has to participate in 2 of those events to retain their title.
- If all available Major competition slots are taken the point system above will be used to determine which holder is removed and who is put in their place.
- Major competition holders may move up but not move down.
- General competition title holders will be given a grace period of one month to enjoy their title before they must defend it. The point system above will be used monthly to determine if a new title holder will be named or if the old one remains. General title holders do not have to defend their title but it is highly encouraged.
- In order for a member to achieve a General competition title they must gain 25 points for their respective title in a month’s time. These points will reset every month.
- Points do not stack. You cannot gain participation points for an event you won; you get the points for winning that event instead.
