• Arena Nights: Arena Night starts at 8am Kingory time today (Nov 28). If you have at least livery, come join us, and get free influence even if you don't have a large army. The more people who join in, the faster we can reach the top. :) Don't worry if you don't know how to do arena, we will help you.
• League Contest: We are doing VERY well with accumulating influence for the League Contest. Thank you so much for all you've been doing and contributing! Our overall goal is 20 million influence, and we have already bypassed 9 million. (increasing influence)
• Spying: FYI to everyone, we do not condone spying at all. We will never place spies in other leagues. If we find someone is spying, they will be promptly dismissed.
• Soliciting Members from Other Leagues to Join: Also, please do not do this. If they approach you with an interest in joining us, that's okay, but please do not go soliciting them. We don't like it when others do it to us, so refrain from doing it to them.
• Problems with Allied League Members: If you are having a problem with a member from one of our allied leagues, please mail one of the officers, elders, Remare, or me.

How to Increase Influence

• Complete Growth & Routine Quests -- Many of these give influence as a reward.
• Complete EPIC/Contribute Quests -- The Contribute Resources/Troops/Jewelry quests exchange a number of these items for a certain amount of influence. However please be careful to not trade ALL of your resources for influence; it's not good to have tons of influence and not be able construct buildings or train troops.
• Train soldiers -- You get 1 pt of influence for every soldier you train.
• Maraud Wilderness/Cities -- You get influence from battles.
• Arena -- I haven't tried this one yet, but I'm told it gives lots of influence. ( PvE (PvP & PVE labeled) , PvP Arena, & Arena FAQ )

Since the profanity filter on Kingory is crazy, I'm posting information here. :P

1) Once you reach govt level 5 and the EPIC quests are open to you, be careful about doing the "Contribute ----" quests (contribute resources, troops, etc). They trade what you have for influence. A few of us didn't realize it at first and lost quite a lot. Also, do not trade Achievement Tokens for Money Books. You're supposed to save up Tokens for other kinds of books. :)

2) Once you get a relocation order from govt level 5 (or before), use it to move to Dignant. Our league is based there; if you are not in Dignant, we can't help you when you get attacked. Also, when you do move, send your new coords to Remare in a mail.

3) We now have a sister league, Masaru-2, headed up by Jowell and Ohara. If Masaru is currently full, new members can go to Masaru-2.

4) We are officially allied with EVONY, Wu, Gaia, and Empire. I'm looking into adding their sister leagues at the moment, so the "no attack" goes for them too.

5) We now have an IRC chatroom, please check the League button in Kingory for more information. If you tried to get in before and didn't find us, I had the chatroom name incorrectly listed. :P The IRC chat is for easier chatting, and it also allows Masaru and Masaru-2 to share chat together. (You can download an IRC client to use, such as mirc for windows or colloquy for mac, instead of the website.)

6) Please remember to not swear in league chat and to keep sex talk/bashing/rudeness to a minimum. We have several young members to keep in mind, and it keeps things pleasant for everyone. :) If you do not heed the first warning to stop, you will be dismissed from the league.
