We are a guild dedicated to managing the projects required to pass the Test of the Seven Phoenix
Our Hall is located at the Sinai Chariot and have a Donation Werehouse next to it.
The Test of Seven Phoenix will challenge your skills as a contractor, not a laborer. When the Hour of the Phoenix arrives, you'll be given a number of glorious Phoenix statues that you must ensure get built at specific Phoenix parks throughout Egypt. Complete all seven within an hour for maximum score.
If you waypoint travel during an Hour, you will be disqualified from that hour.
No Egyptian may build more than a single statue in a given hour.
No Egyptian who has travelled duing the hour may build. (UArch test signup message)
Spousewarp is allowed during the hour, having been dev called and checked.
The Test of Seven Phoenix is about organising and supplying a team to build for you within a short period of time. When the Hour of the Phoenix arrives (check Schedule?), check a School or University of Architecture to receive a list of seven [Phoenix Stadiums]? around Egypt, and the type of Phoenix statue that must be built at each. The list of parks will be the same for each architect during that hour, but the statue type will be random (maybe, was all the same in T1). The Hour of the Phoenix lasts for one hour of TeppyTime (3 Egypt-hours or just over 1 RL hour).
No Egyptian may build more than a single statue in a given hour. If you want points for more than one statue, you'll have to get other people to build each additional statue and give them to you (similar to the [Test of Towers]?). However, if you use waypoint, chariot or expedition travel at any time during an Hour of the Phoenix, you are disqualified. You will no longer be able to build a statue during that Hour (for yourself or anyone else), any statue you have already built will be worth zero points (this point needs confirmation), and you will receive zero points for statues built for you. Because of this, you will probably need to be at a School or University to receive your list before the Hour starts.
An architect can build a statue for themself, should they be lucky enough to be near the appropriate Phoenix park with the necessary supplies, but clearly this won't happen often and is not worth much alone.
At the end of a Hour of the Phoenix, all Phoenix built burn to nothing (Phoenix are fleeting..).

Strategy
This Test is best passed by a team. Collect resources for at least 1 set of all 7 phoenix. Organise a group of people to take positions around Egypt before the hour begins. Station yourself at a SArch/UArch just before the hour begins, (only the SArch gives the build list for that hour, not the Uni). When the hour begins, check the list and locate the stadiums within 1 hour's run of your team. Designate some as builders and some as materials delivery once you know who is close enough to build (if your builders don't have enough natural carry to take a kit to a stadium, have someone run with them, drop a waypoint, then nav materials to them). Do not use any chariots or expedition/navigation time yourself or you will gain no points.
