Revision as of 02:44, 22 March 2007

When you first create your hobo on HoboWars, you are randomly put on a side. The available sides are East, South, and West. The North side is reserved for the administrators of the game. Sides only have two purposes in the game and these purposes are very closely intertwined.

Fighting

When you go to attack a hobo, you may notice that their side is listed along with their other information. This is an important thing to consider when attacking. If you attack someone who is from one of the other sides beside your own, then you will receive normal experience when you beat them. If you attack a hobo from your own side, then you will only receive half of the normal experience. This encourages people to attack hobos from other sides, which leads into the next purpose of sides.

Side Wars

If you go and look at Duncan's house, you will see the three sides listed as well as the number of points that each side has. Farther down the page you will see which hobos on your side have the most and least points. Below this is an indication of the positive or negative number of points that you have for your side. These points are gained when you beat a hobo from another side and are lost when you lose in a fight against a hobo from another side, thus creating positive and negative margins.

Winning Side Wars

At the end of each week, Sunday, the Side War for the week is ended and everything begins over again. At that time, every Hobo on the winning side will receive a cash prize. All hobos in the top ten for their side will get a cash prize as well. The amount of money for winning that is shown when you look at the side totals is how much you would receive if you were the top hobo on your side. This amount decreases as your place becomes lower amongst the Hobos of your side.

Tags

During the course of the contest, if you earn (+)100 points for your side or more you will be have "Cpt." tag put before your name. If you earn (+)500 SideWars points or more, you will get a "Gen." tag placed before your name. Should you have -25 or less you will get a "Loser" tag.

Side Message Board

You will have access to your side's section of the Message Board. Everyone on your side will also have access to this board. This board rarely contains meaningful or well thought out posts. Post concerning winning side wars are rarely taken into consideration by more experianced players, and are flamed or simply ignored.
