Glory
Each week, the Funerary Temple with the highest Glory rating passes the test.
Your temple gains glory when you add Raeli Tiles to it. Although you can add tiles to your temple at any time, you can never remove them. Additionally, your temple can never be reset.
Once tiles are added to the Funerary Temple, it will grow significantly in size:
Glory calculation
Glory is calculated individually for each type of tile, then added. More tiles of the same type increase your glory, but there are diminishing returns: for example, 343 tiles of the same color only give twice the glory of 7 tiles. So to maximize the glory of your temple, you should try to have many different colors. See the table below.
| Tiles of the same color | 1 | 2 | 7 | 14 | 49 | 98 | 343 | 686 | 2401 | 4802 | 16807 | 33614 | 117649 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Glory for that color | 100 | 135 | 200 | 235 | 300 | 335 | 400 | 435 | 500 | 535 | 600 | 635 | 700 |
In general, N tiles of one color give 100*(1+log7(N)) points for that color.
Or, if you don't have log7 on your calculator: 100*(1+log(N)/log(7))
