Captain Nemo Posted April 27, 2013 Posted April 27, 2013 Switching guilds is not prohibited, but it is somewhat frowned upon. If you have not competed in more than one challenge for any one guild, I would guess the issue would be even less. In other words, you can switch if you really want to, but those who are highly affiliated with one guild may receive more backlash for switching. Is this the common practice? (If that common at all?) I only ask because I had first joined GoH many a months ago (As a Nocturnus), and I had entered into the 5th guild challenge, but since then have dropped off the face of Historica. Basically, I want to get back into GoH (And the Castle theme), and actually you know--do stuff, but I'm not sure if I should (Or can) return as a Nocturnus or as another guild (If possible), and it doesn't help that I'm so out of the loop of current events.
Gideon Posted April 27, 2013 Posted April 27, 2013 Oh, and there is a thread for Challenge VI questions here. Might want to ask there? Couldn't find that yesterday for some reason (tired eyes probably), but I think I already have the answer I need. Since I have no aspirations to compete with the excellent stories about the end of Revolword I am going for a complimentary story instead. Remains to be seen if time permits it to be an actual Ch VI entry or just 3-4 Kaliphlin freebuilds :-P
Kai NRG Posted April 27, 2013 Posted April 27, 2013 Can anyone absolutely confirm that there will be no more free-build points after April 30th? SK said so, but I was under the impression that the date hadn't been decided yet...

Kai NRG Posted April 27, 2013 Posted April 27, 2013 I got that date from Ecc... I was kind of afraid of that... but it seems strange to me that all four guilds weren't warned earlier, but I guess we'll just have to wait and see what happens! It's quite fortunate that there's nothing really on the line as far as the guild scores go...
Maxim I Posted April 27, 2013 Posted April 27, 2013 Seriously no freebuild points anymore? :( Problem is that I have only time to prepare for Brickmania Wetteren (4&5 may) so I can't really help :(
Captain Nemo Posted April 27, 2013 Posted April 27, 2013 Why are points not awarded for free builds? Answering my old question above, I'll most likely just start over in Nocturnus with a new character etc.
SkaForHire Posted April 27, 2013 Posted April 27, 2013 They are, although I am not sure how far behind the judges are. Actually, I am not even sure how many people even judge them anymore! What they are referring to is that there is a cut off point for this "book one" of Historica, which ends with Challenge 6. I think there seems to be plans going forward for more historica challenges but nothing is set in stone yet what happens after the 30th of April. Although there seems to be confusion about the free build cut off... It used to be one month after Challenge 6, but Challenge 6 moved, and no one said anything about when Freebuilds are due now.
Captain BeerBeard Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 I remeber reading it was like two months after challenge 6.
Ecclesiastes Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 If the deadline for freebuilds would be the same as the deadline for challenge 6 their wouldn't really be a motivation for most of us to build the following months. So keep the free builds coming and shows us what you got. We just showed some Mitgardian muscle. Plenty of time for the other guilds to strike back!

PenPlays Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 If there isn't a deadline as of yet (meaning freebuilds will still be accepted well into the next month), I might have something at the scale of kabel's "mini-blizzard" ready by then.
ZCerberus Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 Free builds will still be accepted until the end of June.
Infernum Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 Free builds will still be accepted until the end of June. Thanks for the info ZC!
PenPlays Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 (edited) Free builds will still be accepted until the end of June. Wonderful... If anyone in Avalonia is planning on doing anything similar to what Mitgardia has done (or is still doing), please message me. I'd be delighted to join! Edited April 28, 2013 by Penkid11
Brickington Posted April 29, 2013 Posted April 29, 2013 (edited) Free builds will still be accepted until the end of June. Have I told you lately, that I love you? Thanks for that Z! I'm your number one fan! Edited April 29, 2013 by Brickington
Niku Posted April 29, 2013 Posted April 29, 2013 Free builds will still be accepted until the end of June. Those are awesome news, recently I have not build anything at all, real life has caught on me, consuming most of my time, and I am away from the bricks, the least I can do now is visit EB and GoH. And there are starting to show very good mocs for this final challenge, good luck to all. Avalonia for the win.

And there are starting to show very good mocs for this final challenge, good luck to all. Avalonia for the win. Glad to see that I'm not the only one behind with GoH. It's good to know that you will be at least checking in Niku. Edited April 29, 2013 by Penkid11
Niku Posted April 29, 2013 Posted April 29, 2013 Well being honest almost everyday I check GoH and lately some promising Mocs have surfaced. I am marveled with the overall good quality of stories and builds, I expect to contribute as well with my free builds once things are more relaxed. We may be behind Penkid11 but we are still on the race.
Kai NRG Posted April 29, 2013 Posted April 29, 2013 Thanks for the confirmation of free-build points lasting until June Z, that's great to hear, though I've always got lots to build I'm sure I'll be able to throw a few free builds out there...
Brickington Posted April 29, 2013 Posted April 29, 2013 how do you guys define April 30th? I don't know about here, but the guys at ToR III defined it as midnight everywhere in the world.
soccerkid6 Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 how do you guys define April 30th? For previous challenges as long as it was the deadline day somewhere in the world entries were eligible
