Test Description

  • During periodic "Tower Hours", you (and others willing to help you) will construct temporary towers to "control" the land.
  • Building more towers than other players, and placing them strategically, is the key to controlling more territory, bringing you greater progress toward passing the test.

Tower Types

Scoring

  • During the Hour of Towers, participants may build towers. Each tower will control all the land that is closer to it than to any other tower. A single uncontested tower would control 100% of Egypt. The amount of land controlled is based on Voronoi diagrams quantized with quadtrees.
  • Any towers you own at the end of the hour count towards your cumulative total control of Egypt for that tower type. (This means that you can have other people build towers for you, as long as they transfer ownership to you before the end of the hour.) The percentage you earned during that hour will be shown in a message in Main, and the top 14 scores will be listed in a message in System.
  • The top 14 scorers in any particular Hour of Towers get to apply all of the percentage points they scored that round to their total. Participants not in the top 14 only get to add 1/7 of their percentage points to their total.

Passing the Test

  • Obtain 100% control for each of the tower types.

Talent Points

  • Each type of Tower you obtain 100% control with gives one Talent Point
