Canon Company Information
How to Grow In Tier! [V2]
Companies and Starships
Due to the timeline, it is assumed most canon companies went south with the declining population of the Galaxy. However, it is the writer's choice in whether or not he wishes to further the future of a Canon Company. In order to properly adopt a canon company, please follow the below rules.
1. Create your Company submission.
2. At the bottom of the submission, please post an announcement in bold. "This is a canon company."
3. Below your announcement, link to the Canon Company's wookieepedia page.
*Please note that adopting a canon company will not give you a boost in tier. You may only start at a maximum of Tier 2.
Owning a Canon Company & It's Subsidiaries
1. Only one writer may own a Canon Company. You, as a writer, may not own more than one canon company.
2. Your Canon Company may not own other Canon Companies as subsidiaries unless they are directly referenced in the Wookieepedia as being owned by that Canon Company.
3. Each Canon Company Subsidiary must have another character not owned by you labeled as it's CEO/Director and must have their own Company submission.
4. Once approved, you may write that Canon Company's storyline as you wish. How did they survive the Gulag Plague? The story is yours.
Inactivity With Canon Companies
1. If a Canon Company Owner is absent for more than 30 days, any writer who does not already own a canon company may contest your claim by creating a submission of their own for the same Company name.
2. The Factory Judge presiding will alert a Role-play Judge, who will then attempt to contact the previous Canon Company Owner.
3. If the Role-play Judge fails to contact the previous Canon Company Owner within 72 hours and deems the Canon Company Owner inactive, the Role-play Judge will then alert an Administrator who will then transfer ownership of the original submission to the new Canon Company Owner, along with any edits made.

How to Grow In Tier! [V2]
Howdy, you magnificent capitalists.
There’s never quite been a comprehensive system in place for growing your company in tier. Frankly, precious few non-canon companies have progressed past Tier III, much less achieve Tier V. I intend to keep it that way. This guide isn’t intended to make your progression from Tier to Tier easier. Not in the slightest. This guide’s purpose is to make it so that you know exactly how to get your company graduate from one Tier to the next.
There are four types of threads I’m looking for. You should link to them when asking for a Tier upgrade.
Note that each linked thread can only be used to fulfill one of the sub-requirements for each tier level. ( IE: No double-dipping the same thread to fulfill a major project and a contract.)
NOTICE: Marketplace transactions do not count towards tier advancements.
*These will count less than minor or major factions, obviously. These threads also need to be absolutely wonderful to read, or I will find you, and I will kill you.
Players are in charge of informing a moderator if a company no longer maintains the requirements of a given tier. Failure to do so could result in additional forced tier demotion and subsequent electroshock therapy. If you have any questions, post them here, and I or someone else will respond in a timely manner. Well, I won't be able to today. I'm going camping. But tomorrow, for sure.
NOTICE: You may not advance more than one Tier in a single request. Threads already used for advancement from one tier to the next or made during a previous tier will not count towards a new tier advancement.
Tier I to Tier II
Tier II to Tier III
Tier III to Tier IV
Tier IV to Tier V
Tier V to Tier VI

NOTICE: Marketplace transactions do not count towards tier advancements.
- Threads wherein your products are sold in bulk to minor factions, major factions, or NPC organizations.*
- Threads wherein your company is a central element.
- Threads wherein your company expands, here meaning actual, tangible growth and not the creation of a subsidy.
- Threads wherein products are developed.

Tier I to Tier II
- Sign a contract with at least one faction or organization.
- Make at least three minor-production products.
- Complete two miscellaneous threads.
Tier II to Tier III
- Sign a contract with two more factions or organizations.
- Make an additional three mass-production products.
- Complete three miscellaneous threads.
Tier III to Tier IV
- Sign a contract with three more player-run organizations, one of which must be a major faction OR a Tier V+ company.
- Make an additional three mass-produced products..
- Complete four miscellaneous threads.
- Successfully complete a project of sizable proportions.
Tier IV to Tier V
- Sign a contract with two more major factions OR Tier V+ companies.
- Make an additional three mass-produced products.
- Complete five miscellaneous threads.
- Successfully complete a project of sizable proportions.
- Obtain the sponsorship of a major faction.
Sponsorship is essentially when a sufficiently large major faction decides to back your company's endeavors specifically. This can either be by them giving you a large, direct annual subsidy, signing a long-term contract, and other things that would tie the government of that faction and your company close together.
Tier V to Tier VI
- Sign a contract with two more major factions OR Tier V+ companies.
- Make an additional four mass-produced products.
- Complete six miscellaneous threads.
- Successfully complete a project of immense proportions.
- Obtain the permanent sponsorship of another major faction.
Companies and Starships
1. Mass producing any starship will require substantial proof of income by way of development thread, higher tier company, or Minor/Major Faction involvement.
2. To produce a ship over 1,000 meters in length, a company must be Tier 3 or higher.
3. Companies may own and operate a realistic amount of non-combat starships where maximum length per ship = ( Tier Number x 1000 ) / 2
4. Companies may own and operate a realistic amount of combat starships where maximum length per ship = ( Tier Number x 1000 ) / 3 and maximum fleet length = ((Tier Number x 1000) x (Tier Number)) / 2

Think mom and pop shop. 5 is a big, big name in the galaxy. Each Tier is exponentially larger than the last, so a Tier 3 Corporation could have one or two Tier 2 corporations as subsidies without a problem.)[/SIZE]

Particularly for player-made corporations, this should detail some of the processes of how the company does business. Does it accept private manufacturing requests? Is it loyal to a particular government or faction? Are they a benevolent corporation, or do they grind planets into dust for money? It's the little details like this that we're looking for.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=10.5pt]Subsidiaries[/SIZE][SIZE=10.5pt]: (At Tier 3, if you so choose, your corporation can start owning other companies. If your corporation owns a company or multiple companies, this is where to list them. Subsidiaries require their own company submissions.

Every time you add a new subsidiary, you must place a company mod to update it on the parent corporation sub.)
