The Test of the Host

To open the Test of the Host you require:

• 42 Paper
• 14 Oyster Shell Marble
• 28 Linen

The test was opened by Peacefulness on Thursday April 27, 2017

When starting the test at the University of Leadership:

Test of the Host is a test of your ability to gather your fellow Egyptians to engage in fun and interesting events. A minimum of 21 people must attend your event, which they will rate. The two hosts with the highest score each week passes the test.

To pass the principles:

• Make some Linen
• Make some Wood Paper
• Build a Host Display

The following notes need verification, as it is based on information provided by those brave souls who have had a go at this Test. It is supplied as a benefit to all.

• Paper - you are going to need special Paper to build the Display of Host. First, make pulp in an Marble Tub, using sawdust and water (150 Water in Jugs and 100 Sawdust), and then process the paper in a Certificate Press. Finally, the wet wood paper is dried in a regular Paper Press using Rabbit Pelts. If Linen has been used to line the Paper Press, it must be removed and replaced with 6 Rabbit Pelts. The wood paper made this way will appear as 'Paper' in your inventory.
• Using the Certificate Press - Installing a deckle and plate into the Certificate Press has proven to be a bit tricky. You must configure the machine to print certificates first (choose a random name), then with the Monkey Wrench in your pocket and an Aluminium Plate, 4 Bolts, and 12 Washers, go to the maintenance option and remove the existing plate - stash it somewhere - NOT in your pocket - then select 'install deckle and plate'. The new Aluminium Plate, plus the Bolts, Washers and the Deckle will be installed. The old plate can be reinstalled any time, but each time you install you lose the bolts and washers.
• A Monkey Wrench is made from 8 Steel and 8 Beeswax, made in any casting box in 4 mins.
• When you build the Display of Host you will be asked to give your Event a Description and then a Name. Once that is done you will be asked to decide whether the Event will be open to anyone or by invitation only.
• A six hour timer will then start. The Event details can be amended at any time during the countdown, restarting the 6 hours timeframe.
• Events must have 21 or more participants to run. At this stage we are assuming that participants apply at the Display of Host, though this has yet to be tested (as at 28 April 2017).

 Please feel free to update this information, which is a work in progress...

I haven't tried this in T7 but based on memory and from wiki t2 info these seemed like some additional important points and that are still likely part of the test (blondie):

• When someone registers for a public event, they get an automatic event-related chat tab

• A minimum of 21 people must sign up and must stay within an unknown number of coordinates for at least 21 minutes, at which point they get a popup to judge the event. I also remember people coming up to the host display to participate.
