Scour the Universe! - Recruitment drive

Postby the Steep Norns » Tue Dec 11, 2012 7:59 pm

Greetings.

We would like to announce a recruitment drive. We need your help.

The threads of the Pinnacle Tapestry are too sparse.

You have certainly noticed this.

This idea of a connected multiverse relies on a goodly number of players involved in active campaigns, whether it be the one here in the Diamond Garden or another plane entirely. Variety is our life-blood and stories are our flesh.

We're announcing an incentives program for new recruits:
-The recruiter who gets someone to join the program will be paid the amount in NornFavor they would normally have to pay to sponsor a new deity. This prize is awarded when the recruit posts their first campaign log or reaches twenty quality posts.
-High recruitment levels may see promotions of Tier for those who are most active currently.

Mad Arcane Zeus has volunteered, for reasons unknown, to pay these costs.

Recruits continue to get Eitr Exposure as normal. In addition, they'll receive an additional reward if they are of extraordinary caliber.
-Those who are involved in a campaign which meets at least once a month and are willing to provide news of that campaign receive a free Artifact, which Durin has agreed to provide. Recruit's choice .
-Those who run a campaign world, or are already deities in a campaign world, which meets at least once every three months receive free promotion to Pavilion Tier (Campaign God) .
-Those who run multiple 1-in-3 month worlds or a single once-per-month world, or greater, will receive free promotion to Bezel Tier (Worldcrafter) .




Let's talk a bit more about the vision of the Pantheon .

Spoiler: show
This game is about connecting the stories of the multiverse. Without stories, there is nothing unique about this forum .
It is not intended to be a play-by-post: it doesn't weave detailed stories along railroad tracks that way, and it doesn't absorb tons of time that way .

It's about interacting between worlds, Bregelmir visiting Midgard to manipulate the followers of Odin.

We need more connected Facets for that to happen . Please help in any way you can . Arachne, our webweaver, tells us the forums are publicly viewable for now, until membership is at a self-sustaining level. You can link them here or to the Lite Rules from http://www.diamondpantheon.com for an overview. Be sure to stress the nature of the game - it's not play-by-post unless you want it to be, there's few rules, there's not a huge time commitment - the Story is Everything.

Another good tip: Try to lead any recruits through the process pretty explicitly. I've tried the mysterious angle and it doesn't tend to work so well, for now.

A real veteran may not need any rules or conceptual help, but your average bear does.

I've got an ascension test put together. Depending on how many responses I get, I will probably petition the Norns for recruitment help, but sponsor my favorites (and invite the other deities to do the same).

I have an ascension test as well, which I have posted on a multi-user dungeon where there should be some good roleplayers.

I invited a friend who looks very interested.

At the end of April I will have 1d8 more recruits.

I believe that I have found approximately four individuals who are willing and more than capable to ascend as deities. Two have avatars in Rivenrock, the remaining two are from other Facets altogether.
