Background

It has been several years since the heyday of the original Lemon Fame, and since then many new fame points have come into being, ready to be discovered by a new set of eager players! In light of this, Tom has decided to launch a contest to help aid the discovery of the new fame points - with a prize of two weeks worth of free goodies for the winner! Here's Tom's declaration in full:

"We had an intriguing thing there with LemonFame. Too bad it's not been updated in years.

So... I'd like to write out a little contest.

First one to find out 5 or more fame points not yet on the wiki as of today (22/03/2006) will get two weeks of free goodies.


That'd bring the known total to 40, and still leave 8 mystery points." - Tom

Known Fame Points

Currently 35 Fame points have been discovered out of a maximum of 48. The high score for fame is currently 34 points. Here is what we already know about fame points at the launch of this campaign:

Offices

Events

Prestige

  • Individual Prestige: 3 points possible
    • 10: 1 point
    • 20: 1 point
    • 50: 1 point
  • Family Prestige: 3 points possible
    • 20: 1 point
    • 50: 1 point
    • 100: 1 point


There are also 3 fame points relating to Heroes who are 'legendary'. The exact requirements are unknown, but it likely has something to do with Prestige. The Hero can give the family up to 3 fame points at death.

Confirmed not to give Fame

  • Involvement in a Large Battle
  • Moving the Family Mansion
I believe it was a known fact previously that moving your family mansion to the capital of your character's realm gave 1 fame? --Kristian 24 March 2006 00:47 (CET)
Well I believed just moving your family mansion anywhere got you fame. It got me a fame point a while back. Anyway it said on the Fame page that the Mansion Point no longer counted, but I see someone other than Tom wrote that. Hmm... - Revan April 4, 2006 22:17 (CEST)
  • Leading Rebellions
  • Retreiving Bounties
  • Runner-up at a Tournament
  • Having had a character in a now deceased realm
  • If you have started a Guild you definately don't get another 2 points for starting a religion. My 1 character started a Guild and we were awarded 2 points. My other started a Religion and nothing. Priest game is still interesting and Im sure there is fame to be gained there. I'll speculate more about those possiblities as they open up for me and I'll keep a watch on my total as it grows.-Tsubaki April 20,2006

Avenues of Investigation

Lately, Tom has been making the Battlemaster experience even more dynamic and pleasurable than it ever was at the time of the original LemonFame. Thus many new possibilities exist as to what could give fame. Here are a few possibilities from myself. Feel free to add more so more may be investigated by the community!


  • Five Bans or more on one Continent?
  • Leader of a Religion whose influence has spread across the entire continent?
  • Leader of a Guild whose influence has spread across the entire continent?

Roy's Guesses

Okay, here's some of my guesses based upon my own account, which currently has 5 fame points which are still unknown.

  • 10 local lord appointments (Positions can be shared over different characters. Dukeships don't count towards this)
  • Council position held by same character in more than one realm. (ie Judge in Realm X, then Banker in Realm Y)
  • Character in a realm for over 365 days.
  • Region commandership on at least 3 different islands.
  • Having two characters in warring realms.
You mean warring against each other or what? - Revan April 4, 2006 22:17 (CEST)
  • Character still alive after 18 months
  • Having a character being a senior member in more than one guild. Maybe at senior level at least three guilds actually - that would make it more exclusive, and my character would still qualify for it.
  • Having played at least 5 characters. (this one's purely a guess, but you never know, Tom might appreciate character rotation, and the more members of your family there have been in the world, the more famous it would be...)
Nope, i have played 5 characters.--Twinblade 04:01, 17 June 2006 (CEST)
  • Combined age of characters over 100 years. (Again, another wild shot in the dark, but at least this one should be vaguely easy to prove/disprove)
  • I was wondering about age myself-perhaps if one of your characters reaches a certain age or perhaps evne if its that you have a hero who reaches a certain age? Tsubaki

Paying Prison Ransom?

I just got a fame point and the only thing i did was let my family pay my character's prison ransom... - Shoenaemaeh 4 April 2006 19:18 (CEST)

Should be easy to confirm, I've already paid a ransom, but any new players, keep an eye out.

mcsporran 13:55, 12 May 2006 (CEST)

Nope, had my family pay the ransom with Talles to leave Yssarian Prisons, no fame.--Twinblade 04:01, 17 June 2006 (CEST)


Leading forces in Battle?

Just gained one fame unexpectedly. The best thing I can figure is that I lead forces in battle for the first time, and our side won:

Doyle, the Minister of Defense of Lasanar, Count of Hosiel, Marshal of the army of Ozrat takes command of the attacker forces. - Drake

This looks interesting. Can anyone else help investigate this claim? - Revan April 4, 2006 22:17 (CEST)

Dueling

I got ONE fame point for killing someone in a duel - Primus Family - 11 April 2006

I don't doubt this one, but it would be nice to get another confirmation of somebody? - Revan April 18, 2006 21:36 (CEST)
We got a confirmation the Fame discussion page, and the Fame page has been updated. mcsporran 13:56, 12 May 2006 (CEST)

Shadows guesses

Im pretty sure you get a point for killing a Hero. I believe you can get up to three points for having a hero die in battle depending on how long the hero has been around and hon/prest. Perhaps it has something to do with heros being of a legendary status? Having a hero survive for over a year - not to sure on this one, but it would account for the random points i picked when Tom updated the system. Will try to add more later :) Shadow - May 11th

I've recently picked up another point, that I have no idea what for, and it would roughly correspond to a year after I switched to Hero, can't think of any else they may of triggered the point. mcsporran 13:53, 12 May 2006 (CEST)
I believe when the first time a hero in your family gets killed you get one point and then three when a second gets killed. Can anyone confirm this?--Twinblade 04:01, 17 June 2006 (CEST)
No, Batman on Atamara was my first hero to Die and I jumped from 26 to 29 fame points.----Morgoth 04:31, 18 June 2006 (CEST)

Guild Members?

I just got a point of fame and the only thing that changed was the 10th person joined my guild --Torin 04:18, 18 May 2006 (CEST)

Fines?

I got a point of fame the day I got my first ever fine. --Neoro 07:03, 18 May 2006 (CEST)

Nope, been fined lotsa times :)--Twinblade 04:01, 17 June 2006 (CEST)

Revan's Guesses

I in the last day or two got an extra fame point. The only notable things I have done in that time is win three consecutive battles in the same region in the Colonies, and converted a Region to 100% belief in Hedonism. Anyone else got a fame point from the same phenomena? - Revan 11:49, 29 May 2006 (CEST)

Council Fame Point

Just got a new fame point when I was elected as Banker. The only thing that makes sense about it in my family history is that this is the fifth separate time that I got ELECTED to a Council Position in a single realm. - Revan 11:37, 1 June 2006 (CEST)

If it's your first Banker position, then yes you'll get a fame point for it. --Neoro 17:05, 1 June 2006 (CEST)
I already have that fame point. This is the third time I've been elected as a banker - Revan 17:23, 1 June 2006 (CEST)

Sangue's comments and guesses

My Hero was a hero for only a few hours before he was killed in battle. I still earned 3 fame points from his death. He had 153 honor and 55 prestige.

I am pretty sure you gain a point of fame for being the noble who starts a successful colony TO. Sangue started the colony TO of Kalmar on EC. As soon as the TO was complete and the new realm formed, I had a new fame point. Sangue - June 9th

Antiphone Fame

1 point for your first banning from a realm (possibly only for infiltrators).
1 point for 700 days consecutive in one realm.
