Rangers Base Camp

[nightlight]

Rangers, this is your home base!

 

This thread is for any questions you might have and your Guild Leaders will also post any links to mini challenges or announcements on this thread, so keep an eye out here. This thread will be locked, but your Guild Leaders will be keeping an eye on the chat thread for any questions.

 

You can find the rules for the challenges here, but we wanted to bring a few things to your attention in this thread:

1. Signup for the challenge on the sign up sheet
2. Pick 4 SMART goals for the next 6 weeks. 3 of which should be fitness/nutrition related and 1 life goal (no one is going to stop you from picking any combo of 4 goals, or picking less than 4 goals, but this is our preference).
3. Create a thread, with your name in the title, and post your goals in there. You can put a link to your challenge thread in your signature.
4. You don't have to but it would be great to allocate attributes points to your goals, so that you're rewarded at the end of 6 weeks.
5. Pop in at least 3 times a week and post on your thread.  We want to know how you're doing, for inspiration, to/for support and sometimes to offer /ask advice.
6. Keep an eye out for the mini challenges and try to participate in at least one of them. However, don't let the mini-challenges get in the way of you meeting your own personal challenge goals.
7. At the end of the challenge post a final summary in your post and the report in thread and level up.
8. Finally, give any of your Guild Leaders a shout if you need anything, whether it's support, advice, a pep talk or to offer a suggestion.  We're here to help you succeed! 

If you're new to NF (or the challenges), welcome.  Here are a few more links that might assist you in making goals, choosing your race/class, allocating attributes to yourself and your goals (you don't have to do this, but we're nerds so it's a little fun). 

• Making your NF character and updating your signature
• Allocating attribute points
• Rules of the Rebellion
• Code of Honor

Accountabilibuddies:

These are small groups of 6 or 7 Rebels who share the same goals, the same values or are just looking for a "band" who encourage one another. You can find out what the groups are about here and you can sign up for those groups here once you've decided on a group.  You should also be able to find a mentor on this sign up sheet. See also the list of Adventurer-relevant support groups for this challenge.

 

 

 

Mini Challenges:

Mini challenges are great fun to participate in and the Guild Leaders try and centre these around the majority of challenge goals in the thread.  They generally run from the Tuesday (roughly) until 11:59PM on the Sunday and you can score extra attribute points. They're not mandatory, but they are fun!

How to contact your guild leaders

Perhaps you're worried about inappropriate behaviour on the forum, something breaching the NF Code of Honour, or an irritating spammer. As a reminder, "Mocking, harassing, or belittling another forum member or another forum member's form of training, diet, or lifestyle is not allowed. Suggestions, advice, tips are more than welcome - there's a difference."

 

If you see one of our posts, you can hover your mouse over a username, and then when the pop up box appears, select "Send Message". Or, click on our avatars (little pictures) to go to our profile page, then select "Send me a message". To search for a mod (or any other member, for that matter) by username, you can go to the search box at the top right of the screen, and click the little grey button (it probably says "Forums"), and change it to "Members". Then put in someone's username (or as much as you remember), and away you go!

 

If you have a technical fault/issue with the forums, please instead visit the Feeback/Help section, and see if your issue has been reported and/or addressed. If it hasn't, you might like to lodge a ticket.
