Get Social; Get Scrolls

Twitter Logo

A couple of days ago, Yacks received a Scroll of Indoctrination.

'But why?!' I hear some of the... "medal fanatics" (yeah, that's a nice term for them) crying as they look at their lack of Scrolls.

In Yack's case, he retweeted the official Dark Jedi Brotherhood Twitter account 26 times. But that doesn't really give you the full picture does it? How close was he to getting a second one? Is it even possible to get a second one?

Xantros, Kalen, the MAA Staff and I discussed this at length, fought, made up and went to couples counselling.

Here is what we came up with:

  • 1x Scroll per 10 original tweets in a month. Tweets must include either @DarkJediFanClub or have any of the "Official DB hashtags"
  • 1x Scroll for 25 retweets. Retweets must be from the official account of other members posting in official hashtags.
  • A bonus Scroll for being the most active member of the Twitters, starting this from this month.

Yes, you can get multiples for the first two methods. These numbers will likely change as we see how people react, how easy they are to achieve, etc., etc., etc..

We're still working on a way for you to associate your Twitter account with your dossier, so for the time being please email your twitter handle to Xantros and I so that we can make note of it. And expect some small teething issues in the first month or two. We will do our best to make sure we count everyone and everything, but I need to find a good RSS feed for Twitter to automate the recording of things and will be doing it manually until then.

'Wait, you mentioned "official hashtags?"'

Yes, and this is something else we're still trying to figure out, but a general rule is that if you see the DB's twitter account use a hashtag that starts with #db then you can consider it official. The catchall one we try to use for everything is #dbjedi (a throwback to the url on the old site) and some others that have been used include:

  • #dbgames
  • #dbsabers
  • #dbbanners
  • #dbnews

If you're ever unsure, don't hesitate to ask Xantros or I. Happy tweeting, y'all!

I just know I've missed something... please don't hate me.

You forgot to include Yack's favorite hashtags: #duh and #winning

I'll be in on this, yup!

Can #hashtag and #nofilter count too? :P

Do we need to register our twitter accounts?

Wow nevermind, I totally missed that paragraph.
