Top Players
Evernight players are ranked by title based on performance in past games. Each game starts with a purse of Experience.
This Experience is divided between the top allegiances (or teams) when the game ends according to the percentages found
in the chart above. The leader of these allegiances then have the option of splitting that Experience to their
followers as they see fit. Players also generally receive 2 Experience just for finishing the game with at least one region,
or 4 Experience for surviving AND having the same religion as the player who ended the game.

Changing Your Password
Evernight allows you to change your password at anytime. To change your password, just enter your old password and
new password (entered twice) into the spaces provided and press "Change Password." Once changed, you will need to
use the new password to log into Evernight.
|
|
Changing Your Game Settings
You can customize Evernight to work better with your monitor size and/or internect connection speed. The following
list details what options are available to be modified and what each of them signifies:
| Map Width & Height |
The width & height (in pixels) of the game map. Setting these values to lower numbers will mean that less data is downloaded with each map, but more map downloads will be required to view your empire. Setting to a higher value will have the opposite effect. NOTE: if you set these values too high, the Eastern and Southern map navigation arrows may not be visible. |
| Show Empire Borders |
If selected, each player's Empire on the game map will be outlined by a thicker black line - making it easier to determine where one player's empire ends and another begins (especially if both players are marked in the same color). |
| Connection Speed |
If set to Medium, then the game map will be displayed with less detail, reducing it's download time somewhat. If set to Slow, the game map will have less detail, and several non-essential images throughout the game will not be sent to you. |
| Player Level |
If set to Beginner, the player will receive an informational email at the start of each new game. |
| Default View Settings |
You can specify the initial settings of your default for every game here so that you do not have to keep changing them for every new game you join. |
| Receive Game Open Emails |
Select Yes if you would like Evernight to email you when a game you have signed up for is full and about to start. |
| Receive Tick Emails |
Select Yes if you would like Evernight to email you after each tick occurs in games that you are playing. |
| Receive VR1 Emails |
Select Yes if you would like to receive emails from VR1 regarding Evernight and other VR1 games. |
NOTE: Changing your Default View settings will only affect new games that you join after making the change.
All games you are currently playing will be unaffected. To change the Default View in a specific game, go into the game
and set up the map the way you want your Default View to be, and Save the view as "Default View". This will overwrite
the existing Default View.

What Is Evernight?
Evernight is a game that pits you against hundreds of other players
in a quest to control the world. The world is filled with a vast
number of conquerable regions. As a new player, you begin with a
single region, but by deploying your forces and launching attacks
on other regions and players, your empire can grow larger and larger.
The objective is to control as many regions as possible at the end of
the game, and to crush or coerce anyone that stands in your way.
