Serving the region may be its own reward, but as an additional enticement The Keepers of the Call runs a monthly contest to reward the most active, most effective caller. The contest runs throughout each month, and at the end of the month the one with the most points may choose a game from The Monarch's Game Bag as their reward. The point system is described below:

Recruiting a nation through our recruiter page - 1 point
If that nation moves into the region - 10 points (another 10 if it's still there at the end of the month)
If that nation applies for Citizenship - 50 points
If that nation makes 20+ posts - 80 points
If that nation makes 50+ posts - 150 points

This topic is to hold a place for the points system and list of winners, as well as for any conversations about the contest itself. If you choose to take part in the contest, best of luck to you. It can get very competitive.

It would appear that the winner of the contest this month is Gerrick again! Congrats! Please let us know what game you want from the game bag and I'll get it over to you.

And we'll be doing it again in February with a clean slate, so if you want to join in the contest now is a great time to!

YAY! I'll take Company of Heroes. Thanks!

I've sent the link to claim it to you.

Thanks again to @tatte, who donated Company of Heroes to the game pack.

It turns out I'm the only person that recruited last month. I recruited to 4,002 nations, and that's our total recruitment for the month.

Suffice to say that there is no winner for February's contest. A disappointing result. =/

Actually, I used the wrong month...the results are even worse. I recruited to 1069 nations, and xXTheHydraXx recruited to 9 nations. So technically @xXTheHydraXx won for the month, but of course does not qualify for a prize.

Believe it or not, we had a contest this month too!

Recruitment
Wintermoot - 12210 points
tatte - 3200 points
xXTheHydraXx - 100 points
HannahB - 4 points

Residency
Wintermoot - 1050 points
tatte - 350 points
xXTheHydraXx - 5 points

Citizenship
Wintermoot - 550 points (DominionofDranima, Slovakian States, Thaikrihsmae, Mysticalium, Legatris, Forgottone, DekuNut, Western Magellan, La Tosca, perutania, Snjorland)
tatte - 200 points (leroynukenson, Yaoke, Colombea, Dreamer)

TOTAL
Wintermoot - 13810 points
@tatte - 3750 points
@xXTheHydraXx - 105 points
@HannahB - 4 points

The winner for this month is tatte! tatte, please feel free to post the prize you want from the game bag if you want one, and thanks for being such a great recruiter this month.

I'll pass, although in case it doesn't happen by default and I can influence it, I certainly hope that xXTheHydraXx can cash in a prize instead.

(And damn you, do you have a life? Some day (month) I will surpass you. Just wait until I start a rerun of any Star Trek series!)

It's obvious at this point that moot uses his admin superpowers to fudge the numbers.

It's not really that difficult...I can recruit to a few hundred nations in an hour.

Do we have an April winner?

Ah yes, sorry...
