CID

"CID" - meaning Chivalry Isn't Dead - is an SK Social Movement with a Primary and Secondary Objective regarding Guild Lockdown.

• It's Primary Objective is to encourage the proliferation of Active T2/T3 Lockdown Guilds which embrace the practice of competing in GvG Lockdown with no, few or only low-level UVs on their Competition Equipped Gears, according to the ToE* embraced by each Lockdown Guild individually.

*Terms of Engagement

• It's Secondary Objective is to Petition Spiral HQ to create a seperate Leaderboard* for T2 Lockdown Guilds in general, and perhaps specifically those that embrace the CID movement.

*This is just about a "hotfix", not anything to do with the complete overhaul the current Leaderboard System really needs...

If you personally endorse the entirety or at least the Secondary Objective of this Movement, then please leave your name - or take a vote among your Guild's Members and leave the name of your Guild if the majority favors either - on the Discussion Page, and it will be added to the appropriate Listing.

Suggested ToEs

• (1) No UVs at all(Encouraged)
• (2) 1 Low-Med UV for either Helm or Armor
• (3) 1 Low-Med UV for any 1 Weapon
• (4) 1 Low-Med UV for each Gear Type
• (5) 2x Low-Med UV combo for any 1 Gear
• (6) Up to a total of 3 Low-Med UVs for any Gears
• (7) Up to a total of 5 Low-Med UVs for any Gears

Seducing T3 Lockdown Guilds

I talked with two different Top 10 GvG Lockdown Guild GMs, and they weren't very encouraging. I can understand that. Members of the serious T3 Lockdown Guilds are heavily invested in UVed Gears, to the tune of millions of cr for most of them. Many of them don't even have non or low UV Gears of any Type... However, I have done some thinking and a bit of rough calculating and have come up with a few points.

• (1) 15-25 Lines of Gears taken to 3* should only cost around 150-350Kr... Not much when compared with all the Millions T3 UVers invest...
• (2) Serious T2 LD Guilds are a breeding ground for the T3 LD Players of the future, so Scouting and Training doesn't seem too much to ask.
• (3) T3 LD Guilds don't have to make it a regular practice to "slum" with the T2 LD Guilds if they don't want to. I'm just suggesting 1-3 Matches once or twice a week with the T2 Guilds of their preferrence, perhaps on a scheduled basis, perhaps just randomly as T3 LD Guild Teams feel like it and as T2 Guild Lockdown Teams are Available and/or Inviting.

Other Ideas

I personally endorse the practise of "Member Trading" between LD Guilds, for the purpose of building Rosters of players for Lockdown which tend to syncronize in regard to the times they are Logged Into SK... I don't think Loyalty to any one Guild should come before the efficiant organization of LD Guilds to enable the maximum occurance of Matches at all hours of the day. Whether this is primarily bourne out of a competitive spirit or simply fun, I do not particularly care.

I also endorse 'Equalizing", the practise of Members migrating from a larger LD Guild to a smaller one, to make the creation of Guild Lockdown Teams easier to accomplish.

And, lastly I endorse "Comparative/Cooperative Scheduling"
