What is Combat Skill of the Week?

Combat Skill of the Week is a weekly competition that encourages you to train your combat and combat related skills.
It can be as competitive or not competitive as you like ie: you can train as much or as little as you want for it.
It is completely voluntary and you will never be forced to sign up or participate in it.

How does it work?

On the Monday of every week Combat Skill of the Week kicks off with a poll being posted, which asks you to vote for which Combat Skill you would like to train that week.
This voting stage will last for three days and then it will close and sign-ups will begin.

Sign-Ups are then posted and they last for three days, until Monday.
The Combat Skill to be trained has been decided by this point and so if you would like to participate all you need to do is post on the sign ups saying that you would like to be involved.

As soon as the sign-ups end the actual week of training begins.
It lasts for exactly one week, with your starting exps being taken before the competition starts and your ending exps being taken at the end.

Finally when the finishing exps have been taken and the amount of exp you gained in the skill has been worked out, the three winners names are published and the competition is over.
Now the next week of Combat Skill of the Week will commence beginning with the voting stage, in the usual way.

So what is Skill of the Week?

Skill of the Week is a similiar competition, but this allows you to train your non-combat related skills.
You are allowed to participate in BOTH Combat Skill of the Week AND Skill of the Week, as they will run ALONGSIDE each other every week.

What are the Rewards?

Event Attendance:

Event Attendance is very important in WG.
It decides if you are active enough to be promoted, to earn Member of the Month and since this is a week-long event (as such) then it seems fair that you should be rewarded with attendance points, based on how well you train.

So here's the deal:
1. Every week an attendance requirement is set, a certain amount of exp is decided and if you achieve this amount then you get one attendance point!
(Obviously this exp requirement changes for every skill, since some skills are easier to train than others)
This is known as The Lower Exp Requirement.

2. Secondly another exp requirement is said. This is set for a much higher amount of exp in the chosen skill. This exp amount is designed to take many hours to achieve, but for all your hard work you will be rewarded with two attendance points.
This is known as The Higher Exp Requirement.

Your Name on The Winners List

This is as simple as it sounds.
The Winners List simply contains the names of the top three exp achievers for every week of Combat Skill of the Week.
Your names will remain here for as long as Combat Skill of the Week runs, so this is a long term thing.

What are the Benefits?

There are a number of benefits that come about as a result of training with Combat Skill of the Week:

You will grow to achieve a higher combat level= more respect
You will not get ko'ed so easily at wars
You will be eligible for the 120 F2P and 126 F2P Combat GuardianScore badges
You will be a higher combat level than His_Lordship
Havochaha will stop bothering you and asking you to train

So as you can see there are many benefits and this is why you need to get involved with Combat Skill of the Week!

If you have any questions or comments about the scheme or SUGGESTIONS for improving Combat Skill of the Week then please let me know, I am more than glad to listen to and adopt interesting ideas!
