mauvais-pli.livejournal.comThe community will officially re-open on Tuesday, 1st January for the beginning of Game 9. The first seven applications in the queue will be released then, and stamped the following Saturday. We're eager to start the new game and hope to welcome many new members! However, there's currently two applications in the queue, so plenty of room to jump in on the first sorting batch of the game!
As a reminder to our current sorting members: please capitalize your house name and put it in brackets. For example, if you are from House Tully, you would put [TULLY] in your subject line (if you are using a Livejournal style that does not show comment subject lines, please bold it in addition and put it at the top of your comment, i.e. [TULLY]). Make sure to bold your vote, as well, e.g. Martell.
As of Game 9, sorting (and stamping) will be worth 10 points per vote -- provided you fulfill the requirements specified above. The corresponding decision regarding monthly and game sorting bonuses is still in discussion; once the mod team decides, there will be a separate announcement.
A note on our admission policy: as of last game, we require applicants to have read through A Feast For Crows to join the community. We feel that the first four books are required to understand the seven houses that we use here well enough to sort new applicants fairly. We will reject any applications that indicate that the applicant has not read through the first four books. Additionally, it should be noted that spoiler warnings for A Dance with Dragons are not used within the community, so if you decide to join not yet having finished the latest book, avoiding spoilers is your own responsibility.
Also, members whose journals are defunct have been removed from all sub-communities. If your journal was among those deleted and you wish to return to the community, please contact us here.
For any remaining questions and rules regarding sorting, see the Sorting section of the Official Westerosorting FAQ.
