A week runs Monday 00:00 to Sunday 23:59 UTC. Winners are announced Sunday 23:55, the counters reset Monday 00:00. The top three in each ranking get 5, 3 and 2 seals.
Quest Board. Every hunt you hand in at the Questboard counts. The board offers six hunts a day and resets at midnight, so a full week is 42 turn-ins.
Events. Wins from Reverse Race and Zombie Survival go into one pool. Both events also pay 2 seals directly to the winner of every round.

War of Emperium. One point for every round your guild still holds a castle when the hour is up, and both castles count towards the same table. First place pays 25 seals, second place 10, to every member who was measured inside a castle that season. Standings are on the WoE Sign at .
