Fame!
« Topic Start: May 05, 2011, 08:58:56 AM »
A discussion for anything to do with fame  8)

I happened to just have gained 2 family fame points a few hours ago from the last turn change but I can't find out what from. I didn't gain any position but rather lost in election for re-election as Judge.... any suggestions?

New Harte Family: Eros (Vix Tiramora, EC), Nyx (Fronen, BT), Chance (Avernus, DW), Scopuli (Gothica, Colonies)

Old Harte Family: Hyperion (Aurvandil, DW), William (IVF, BT), Katrina (Fronen, BT), Callandor II (Ohnar West, FE)

Did you gain any prestige or honour or family gold?

I have 9 fame but I only know where 4 are coming from(region lord, 10 prestige, 20 prestige and 20 familiyprestige).
Does somebody has suggestions where my other 5 fame can come from??

Possibly 2000 family gold,  first investment, Buying one unique item., trader, outcast, or a type of death (5/6 of these).

take a look at the famebox?
The above is accurate 25% of the time, truthful 50% of the time, and facetious 100% of the time.

I have had no council position and haven't been duke. my (family)prestige is not 50.
I've had no trader or infiltrator, never moved a capitol, sponsered an army or won a tournament.
I have had multiple unique items but I found them, never bought.
Haven't started a religion or guild but are currently elder in one.
What does the Prophet mean?
I have a mentor but he hasn't had many mentor points.
Never died.

So religion, skills or unkown they will come from I think.
Is there a way I can know I have a religious or skill fame?

The only religion fame I know of comes from founding one and then the prophet fame if the religion becomes successful (exact criteria for that remain unknown), though it's possible there's a skill fame point for a certain level of oratory.

I also have 5 fame points that are of ambiguous origin. I know that the last time Tom added fame points, he added several that would be easier for the 'non addicts' to acquire. As far as I know none of them are really known, but my guess is they are very easy to get and represent relatively minor achievements at best. I have also long suspected that there is a fame out there somewhere that you can get as a Marshal, though I have no evidence - it's more of a hunch really.

I'm 99% certain that there's a fame point for leading an army in battle the first time.

That is more or less what I suspect as well.

Could it be that I have the Prophet fame because I'm the highest elder in my religion?
Is there a way to now, one of your skills is high?
As I don't expect to have more than one skill high, where could my other fame come from??

Do you get fame when an Adventurer becomes a Knight?

So I have a question for people.  Has anyone been able to trace a fame point to receiving good marks from their Lord?  Say to a standing of +3 or so (the level required to not be able to be fined)

That's an interesting theory. It would explain one of my unknown fame points if true.

This thing with fame is very weird, out of thin air in about two days my fame increased from 4 to 7. Honestly I do not know from what it is.
I have checked the famebox on wiki, but I haven't found the answer for it.

I can confirm this. Probably someone needs to update the Wiki page.

Just stay alive and kicking, raise your voice when its needed. Through reason you can show the mistakes of others, something violence can't do.

I don't break rules, I bend them- a lot.
