You must read this post in it's entirety before posting your Application.

APPLICATION FOR ENTRANCE INTO "Food Chain"

In order to streamline the application process, this thread will be used to deliver important information for those with intent to join "Food Chain".

The obvious purpose of an XP chain is to maximize the nature of the allegiance system. It is important to understand that belonging to any XP chain can be trying. Sometimes being a part of a chain requires knowledge beyond what is needed to simply play Asheron's Call. A chain is not for everyone.

We do have a quota system to make sure that everyone pulls their own weight. For new entrants, this is not always an easy transition from not being concerned with a specific amount of XP needed to be earned personally. This will take dedication on your part.

Remember, the Food Chain has a team of managers well versed in XP Chain dynamics. Feel free to ask them any questions you may have about being in a chain.

In addition to joining "Food Chain", you are also joining the Last Dynasty Monarchy.

About The Last Dynasty: http://www.lastdynasty.net/LD%20CoC.htm Read it.

Below this post, you will find "Food Chain" policy.

By posting your Application, you are stating that you have read, understand and intend to abide by the policy.

The actual thread that you will post your application to is linked at the end of this policy.

******************************

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT XP TRACKING:
To join the chain, you must be running ACstats with our XP tracking add-on. The add-on feature allows us to use our own Tracking system and to have your data sent to our server.

Here is a complete set of instructions: http://www.lastdynasty.net/ACstats%20guide.htm

In order to upload to our database, you must be a part of the Last Dynasty clan. Therefore, we recommend that you pledge to someone--anyone--in the clan BEFORE you post your application.

NOTE: You MUST be running ACStats and be shown on our Master List page BEFORE YOU APPLY! Failure to do so WILLresult in your Application being put on hold for at least 14 days.

Download the source file that allows you to upload to our server here.

Access the Master List here.

If you are still having trouble, consult this FAQ and Troubleshooting thread, found here:

ACStats is a requirement for our chain, so if you cannot get it working, you cannot join the chain. As a last resort, start your own thread asking for help. Make sure to give specific information about your situation. "I couldn't get it working" will no longer be an accepted excuse. There are no exceptions.

Remember, complete this part BEFORE you post your application.

Ottmar, your application goes on this thread: http://www.lastdynasty.net/board/viewtopic.php?t=9

Also, find a temporary patron in LD so your name shows up on the clan listing. Sometimes it will delay your application significantly if you haven't done that first.

[Neuslayer]

Pod, Ottmar has a patron in LD---me!! He's been my vassal for several months now. I'll let him know to move his application and to get on AC stats.

[Thorgrim]

Its always sad to see those blessed vassals go.........*sniff sniff* Your boy's growing up Talk to you soon Neuslayer No baby yet.

6 days overdue.
