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. 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 stats. This is an important thing to consider when attacking. If you attack someone who is from one of the other sides, then you will receive normal experience when you win. If you attack a hobo from your own side, then you will only receive half of the normal experience. This forces you 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 amount of points that you have won (or lost) 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.

At the end of each week, Sunday, the side wars are cleared and everything starts over again. At this time, every hobo on the side that has the most points will receive a cash prize. 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 ammount decreases as your place is reduced.

During the course of the contest, whenever you have earned over 100 points for your side you will be rewarded with a "Cpt." tag in front of your name. Also, if you get more than 500 points, you will get a "Gen." tag.
