Calculating your EXP


EXP can be gained in literature and visual art. 

EXP can also be gained by successful hunts and territorial disputes.

Even though sneks level automatically, it's good to keep a tracker just in case there's an error in the database!


VISUAL ART

Headshots
Less than 50% of the Snek is shown  

Uncolored, unshaded lines - 5 EXP
Flat Colored - 10 EXP
Full Shaded - 15 EXP
Fully Illustrated - 20 EXP

Full-Bodies 
More than 50% of the Snek is shown

Uncolored, unshaded lines - 10 EXP
Flat Colored - 15 EXP
Full Shaded - 20 EXP
Fully Illustrated - 25 EXP
^ You can only choose one option, not two!

Fully illustrated means:
Some kind of shadows or highlights, as long as shading can be seen
A semi-complex to complex background
At least 50% of the snek is showing

ANIMATIONS
Minor Animations (blinks, bounces, etc) - 15 EXP
Major Animations (Run cycles, large movements) - 30 EXP

Animations are judged per scene!

LITERATURE


Literature must have the Snek be a major feature of the story. 
Literature also includes character bios, etc.

150 Words - 5 EXP

BONUSES

Bonuses 
Activity Bonus - 5 EXP
Successful Activity - 5 EXP
Non Commissioned - 5 EXP
Other Member's Snek included - 10 EXP < Stacks per snek
Correct Region - 5 EXP
Anomaly Snek Included - 10 EXP
Breeding Image Bonus - 10 EXP
Story Image Bonus - 15 EXP

Individual bonuses cannot be used more than once per image with the exception of the other member's snek bonus. 

The OMS bonus works as follows:

There are five sneks in an image. 

4 of those five are yours, so the bonus doesn't count for them. 

One snek is not yours and belongs to someone else, so the other 4 that belong to you can get a +10 EXP bonus. 

For every snek that is featured in an image that is not yours, the bonus will stack per snek.

Do we just note the Biotech account in order to get our snek's old exp counted?
