New In-Game Calendar
Posted: Thu Oct 16, 2008 8:35 pm
Folks, I'd recommend you check it out and play around with it and overall... understand! We'll start implementing the useage of this calendar, as it puts more things that we do back in the game, instead of on the site.
Grim Events will still be valid, and we'll still be doing "business as usual" but for the next week or two, we'll be doubling it up.
"How do I use the calendar?"
Well, that's simple - click on it and if you can tie your shoes you can understand it. When there is a new event, the calendar itself will flash with a question mark. Got an event you have been invited to but haven't put your attendance on? Big question mark.
"How do I get invited?"
Invites are either individually, or at the creation of the event can be "Mass Invites." Mass Invites are guild specific and have three critrea
1) Level; it can be set from 1-70 or for anything inbetween
2) Guild Rank; you set a minimum rank and that rank and everyone above are automatically placed on the attendee list
3) Arena Group; Either your 2v2, 3v3, or 5v5.
There are also two types of things you can put on the Calendar: Events and Announcements. Events are things you can sign up for, Announcements are just a guild-wide FYI. Right now we have Events set up for the rest of this week and up to the 26th. I have also placed a Test Announcement on the 28th, just so folks can see the difference.
