Test Revision
This section is to detail changes to the current Test of Marriage. This document would be created as a means to draft and then finally produce a official Petition to replace and see the Test of Marriage replaced with this test.
Things to keep in mind when wanting to change the Test:
- Must also have a name that can at least use the current Test of Marriage Icon (see below).
- Must be something in which can benefit Egypt as a whole, not people in it.
- Must at least appeal to Teppy in terms of hardness of the Test.
- Must keep in mind this may fail.

An explanation of the changes
Passing the principals of Test of Egypts Honor
- Introduce yourself to a potential Honorable person, and have them accept your offer.
- Have a Honorable person introduce themselves to you, and accept their offer.
- This should be thought of as being similar to teaching someone a Technology. Person A offers Person B to learn a Tech, Person B is presented with a dialog box in which they can say YES or NO to. To pass the Principals, the person receiving the offer must say YES.
- Obtain your seed(s) from a Essence of Harmony.
- The seed or seeds obtained from a Essence of Harmony can be done at any stage BEFORE a Citation is given to the Essence of Harmony. In the event of a draw (both Honorable players having the same amount of seeds) the Essence of Harmony will provide both players who will start the ceremony.
- Another idea would be to have it run as anyone starting and finishing to remove the need to code who needs to go first and when.
- Planting of the seed(s) must be after all the other items in the ceremony and should not have a short time limit. This is to allow for current game lore which has after the ceremony is preformed at a Common Altar, it is normal to provide a celebration; this can include setting off fireworks, drinking of wine and/or beer, and providing people with Acrobatic moves for the Test of Acrobat.
The Features
- Access logs from a Essence of Harmony of where your planted plants are; and that of your chosen Honorable person.
- This will be needed if the Test of Egypts Honor is accepted as stated in this document. This will allow the removal of the plants if a Sever is needed from the Chosen person.
Sever of the Chosen
In relation to Test of Marriage, 'Sever of the Chosen' is what was done in a Divorce to remove the Marriage.
- Visit a Essence of Harmony and access the log of your Planted Plants location.
- This is needed to be logged by the game to ensure the information is kept save. If it is lost by the player for example the only way to stop the connection with the Chosen person would be a Developer Call. An Essence of Harmony is then the best way to ensure the information is accessible, and not lost; while keeping game lore.
- Visit each of your plants location and 'rip it from the ground'.
- The Planting of the plants is a sign that the work you and the Chosen person will do together will benefit the lands of Egypt as a whole. From completing of Tests, to opening and expanding knowledge. Therefore the removal of the planted plants is a signal that the trust, dedication to each other and to Egypt is now no longer viable for one of the persons.
- Visit each of your Honorable person's plant locations and 'rip it from the ground'.
- Like with accessing your logs of planted locations, you have the ability to access that of your chosen Honorable person. Like with other buildings, projects or the like, you are able to access the planted plants and remove them if the time comes where the teamwork set by the Test is now longer trustworthy. Because of this, you need to set your chosen Honorable person free of their contract by removing of the plants.
- Dispose of all Plants by destruction.
- Destruction of the plants is a sign that the Honorable person you chose was incorrect; and as such you feel that you can not work with this person. Destruction is a sign to the Gods that this person is not Honorable to yourself and is removed from your Chosen list.
- Means of destruction could include:
- Returning them to the Essence of Harmony.
- Building Bonfire with [example] 50 wood pieces and burning them.
- Dropping them into a mine.
- Returning them to the Essence of Harmony seems to be the most advisable.
