Ladies and Gentlemen,
on behalf of the Senator for Lyonesse East, I hereby announce that the 8th House Cup&Shield competition as mandated by NS185-1 is underway and with it the fifth House Sceptre contest! It started January 1st and will last through January 31st. At the end of the month, the winners will be announced.
As usual, the competition will be held using Cerb 's magnificent Accelerator 2.0. If you do not have access to that, please PM the Minister of Immigration The Candy Lane .
For those unfamiliar with the rules, here's a quick recap:
(Please note that unlike the House Cup and the House Shield the House Sceptre does not qualify as a House Competition that is mandated by law under the new House Achievement Plan (NS 218-4).
I trust all House Leaders have brought their rosters up to date.
Best of luck to all Houses!

For those unfamiliar with the rules, here's a quick recap:
The competition will run for a period of one month. The competition will begin one month after the election of the Lyonesse East Senator. It is the LE Senator's responsibility to build awareness among house leaders and in house threads about the competition leading up to the starting date.
During the week leading up to the starting date, the LE Senator will remind House leaders to update their rosters. CTE nations will be placed in a separate section, and WA nations should have (WA) placed next to their name.
During the period of the competition, participating nations will utilize the Accelerator to contact new nations and recruit them to the Islands.
The Accelerator calculates a monthly point total based on the recruiter's performance. At the end of the competition week, the LE Senator will access the "Top Recruiters" page of the Accelerator to determine the points accumulated by each participant. The LE Senator will then contact the Immigration Minister to receive the total for each recruiter of nations that came to XKI for the duration of the competition. In addition to points for each telegram sent, the recruiter will earn twenty points for each successful recruit.
The LE Senator will then add these points to a House Grand Total, each participant's points being added to their House's total. The House with the largest Grand Total wins the House Cup. The LE Senator will then calculate a per capita total based on the number of Accelerator-eligible nations in the House. The House with the largest per capita value wins the House Shield. These awards remain with the House until the next competition.
Houses with Nations who send over 500 telegrams will be eligible to receive the House Sceptre . This award will be given to the House of the nation with the highest success rate, provided they are willing to share their telegram.
