Proposed alternative level advancement
Optional Advancement for Test of the Demi-Pharoah
I, miylaina of Upper Egypt, hearby propose a new level advancement for the Test of the Demi-Pharoah.
1] The test itself shall not be changed in any means. The test for first round pased will still hold for those who do not
accept the optional level advancement. Those that do use this optional means of advancement and do gain a level can
do so by betting.
2] Like the Test of the Freeman or the Test of the Prophet, at any voting booth during the 3rd round of the Demi-Pharoah,
citizens level 7 and up may bet on the candidates for Demi-Pharoah on who will win. The first 14 citizens with the
correct bet gain one level. passing the initial test.
3] For those who use the optional level advancement and pass, will not be able to advance again by betting, for the option
will no longer be available to them, those who advance to the 2nd round and beyond will also not have the option of being
able to bet on the rounds, for it is a one time available option. Players that used the optional level advancement and
passed, will also not advance a level if they are to participate in the Test and continue to the second round.
I ask that the above optional advancement to be considered as a better alternative to level advancement for the initial test
of the Demi-Pharoah.
Thank you for your time.
