5. Controversy Corner - Grading & Ranking Guidelines
6. Guild Masters

The guildmasters have been working on coming up with some guidelines for grading pieces for rankings. Due to the problems inherent in being a very widely spread guild, we are attempting to make the grading guidelines very clear and easy to use, so that an item graded in Aneala will be graded the same as one in Ildhafen. This will give consistency all across Lochac.

In order for you to have your say about the gradings, the guidelines will be put onto our website and commentary will be asked for. Questions we'd like answered are:

• Do you think they are fair? Too hard? Too easy?
• Do you like a more structured style for the guidelines, or would you prefer a less formal style?
• How can you get items graded if you live a long way from other members? Are you happy to send items by post for grading?

Please discuss this topic in your local group, as well as on the mailing list.
