There's been quite a lot of discussion about the claim window for social adventures being too short. First, I'd like to explain why it is short.
Unlike our traditional leadership / fellowship system, the social adventure system allocates points based on the number of participants over the length of time the event ran. The larger the claim window, the longer it takes to receive points for attending events. Thus, confusion arises when you attend an event and your points don't change for several days. I am preparing to extend this window to 7 days; however, we need to remember that you won't see any point-value change until the event locks and points are distributed. I will update the console to present you with a date when the points will be assigned to your account, to try to relieve this stress.
In addition we are updating the Point Values so that smaller groups can still claim activities, even if it's just 2 people in the case of some of the newer cooperative games.
Point Value Adjustments:
- 2 Players (2 Less than Requirement): 25% Point Value; 10 Social Points Per Hour
- 3 Players (1 Less than Requirement): 50% Point Value; 20 Social Points Per Hour
- 4-9 Players (Base Requirement): 100% Point Value; 40 Social Points Per Hour
- 10-19 Players (Bonus Tier 1): 125% Point Value; 50 Social Points Per Hour
- 20-50 Players (Bonus Tier 2): 150% Point Value; 60 Social Points Per Hour
- 50+ Players (Bonus Tier 3): 200% Point Value; 80 Social Points Per Hour
This change will take place sometime in September. I just gotta get through these next few weeks then I should be able to touch the site again and start working on some improvements.
Fortnite
The new “Survive the Storm” event has launched, and with it comes some new toys! Be sure to login and check out the new event. It's Llamatastic! Join us Fridays at 3PM PT for some Llama smacking goodness. If you're on the fence about Fortnite, be sure to check out our stream every Friday at 3PM PT at http://gsch.info/twitch. Fortnite is a cross platform (PC/PS4) cooperative survival game with lots of guns, crazy waves of husks, exploring, smashing, and giant robot teddy bears with machine guns. What's not to like?

Neverwinter
We're still cruising along in Neverwinter on PS4, actively working on a Tier 3 Guild Hall. If you're looking to connect, send a friend request to Foghladha on PSN and I'll invite you to the guild. The guild finder system is a bit broken, so I doubt you'll be able to find us there. You can also write Conchobair@Foghladha in game and I can shoot you an invite through the mail system, too.

Orcs Must Die! Unchained
With the new claim rules it will be easier than ever to group up and earn some points for playing Orcs Must Die! Unchained. There's even a new game mode on it's way that we should see soon! Be sure to search for "GSCH Social Adventure" in the guild lineup on PS4 to join the community.

Citadel
The Citadel Social Adventure crew is well on it's way to building one heck of a massive GSCH megabase in Citadel. Jairone has taken the helm of this endeavor and has been doing so marvelously. If you’re looking to play Harry Potter, The Skyrim Years, (I mean Citadel) connect with Jairone, or head over to the social adventure page.

Albion Online
We have a small group building up our guild hall in Albion Online. If you’re playing and need a guild to roll with, we are a very small group of mostly casual players. We do have a guild hall and we're actively farming to make it bigger. Eventually I'd like to show some of the PvP siege combat, but I think that will be with alliance mates as I don't know if we're going to grow big enough to wage war on our own. Be sure to connect with us at:
