== IMPORTANT UPDATE ==
Due to both the Covid-19 situation and also Wisconsin rifle deer hunting season, we are having our usual November Player Workshop event be a virtual Discord event instead.
There is no virtual event this month so we can focus on the player workshop; players who want to participate in the continuous story of Last Hope can do so through Resources and/or Organization actions.
== DATE & TIME ==
Important Dates:
Sunday, November 15th
- Resources & Organization Action Deadlines for the month
Wednesday, November 18th
- Membership Deadline (to be included in the Membership Prize Giveaway during the Discord Player Workshop)
Saturday, November 21st
- Discord Virtual Player Workshop Event: Noon to 4pm
- Open social on Discord starting at 5pm
== MEMBERSHIP INFO==
***All players who sign up for a Basic, Standard, or Premium membership will automatically be awarded the +2 bonus attendance exp.
MEMBERSHIP UPDATES AND EXP BOOSTS
Due to the Covid-19 situation, we have decided to do the following:
1) Continue offering CLOUT as a special Perk option that is available to everyone as one of the membership perks.
2) Expand on the +2 bonus Attendance exp for Standard and Premium memberships to reflect on the events that would have had multiple days (on top of the base exp offered by each membership).
3) Add a “tiered exp bonus” based on the chosen membership of the month. Basic will give another +1, Standard +2, and Premium a +3 bonus. This is IN ADDITION to the Exp awarded by the membership AND the bonus attendance exp we are offering.
For example, in November:
-Basic membership will award 6 exp (3 base + 2 attendance + 1 tier bonus)
-Standard will award 7 exp (3 base + 2 attendance + 2 tier bonus)
-Premium will award 11 exp (6 base + 2 attendance + 3 tier bonus)

= PLAYER WORKSHOP KEY NOTES =
1) Workshop Schedule
The schedule for the Player Workshop, what we are focusing on and when, will be released soon once the staff of Last Hope have been able to finalize details. We are hoping to do a mix of seminar/panel blocks of time for all in attendance and also "break out" rooms for different topics.
2) Attendance Exp
Attendance exp this time around will remain the same as other months; all players who purchase a membership will be a single day attendance exp boost. Attending the player workshop will not have bonus/attendance exp assigned to it. However... (see below)
3) Prize Giveaways
We will be doing two different "prize giveaway pools.
- Hourly Exp/Coin: Every hour we will be rolling randomly to give away 2 bonus exp and 3 coin for all of those in attendance in the Discord chat rooms. This means that someone attending all 4 scheduled hours of the Player Workshop will have 8 chances to win (2 chances per hour, 4 hours).
- Membership Prize Giveaway: At the end of the player workshop during the final Exp/Coin giveaway, we will be doing a drawing for several prizes. The only way to get into this drawing is to purchase a player membership for the month. We are starting with a feastware kit, a 20 silver boost, and a Stronghold Foam sword. Should a significant number of players purchase memberships this month, we will add more prizes to the mix!
The level of membership dictates how many times your name is entered into the prize giveaway:
Basic = 1 entry
Standard = 2 entries
Premium = 3 entries
The deadline for being eligible for the prize giveaway at the November Player Workshop Discord virtual event is Wednesday, November 18th.
All players who sign up for a Basic, Standard, or Premium membership will be eligible for the Membership Prize Giveaway
