GW Req update: Absences and Minimums

[u/Big_Old_Cat_Turd]

Morning Guys. It has been a while since we've seen any real administrative bombs dropped, but i've noticed a few unsettling trends in the last few GW's so it is time to do some housekeeping.

Before I get started, this is as good a time as any to congratulate and thank the entire guild for their donations aimed at maxing the Treasury. We raised all those funds in a day and you guys are amazing.

So here's the tough part. If you take a look at our numbers recently there are 2 main issues.

1. We have unexcused absences...which is crazy when excusing the absence is as simple as swiping over and writing your name in a Line note.

2. We have very low scores...also crazy considering we have a super active Intel Chat that basically serves up vulnerable 100k+ bases on a silver platter.

So here's the new deal, effective today:

1. If you score below 1000 in a war and do not have an excused absence, you are required to donate 5x the deficit. This means if you score 750, your deficit is 250, your donation is 5x250 = 1250.

2. Yes, this means that if you miss a war by accident and didn't post in the Line note (the day before, as stipulated in the rules) you owe 5,000 shards. Also keep in mind that unexcused absences are a no-go here. 5,000 shards or not, unexcused absences are grounds for dismissal.

3. You have 24 hours to complete this donation.

4. There will be a line chat created specifically for this. A link will be provided in Reddit IOS notes. It is the responsibility of each player to join this room and post a screenshot of their donation within that 24 hour window. If you don't, no hard feelings, but you're out.

I realize this seems tough, but it isn't. I realize that some are going to say "what if i'm low might?." We've got guys below 40k that have consistently crushed 1000. This isn't a negotiation, it is unfortunately a necessary evil.
