Your Parish.
Rural, geographically true and completely non-corporate. Everybody gets one based on where they are, and it is the layer where an online membership turns into people who actually meet.
Assigned by location
Roughly, and adjustable.
Parish leaderboards
Rather than global ones, which demotivate ninety-nine per cent of people.
Parish goals
Tied to real events on the farm — lambing, harvest.
Meets
Where a Parish organises one, which several have.
The thinking behind it.
Global leaderboards are a well-documented way of making almost everybody feel bad. A parish-level one is a competition you might actually win, against people you might actually meet.

Loitering costs nothing and gets you the archive, the cameras and a Parish.
What people actually ask.
The two questions this page gets most, answered without a support ticket.
It gets you the booking window early. It does not get you a table that does not exist, because the room is the size it is.
Loitering gets you the chapter archive, the cameras and first sight of every drop. It costs nothing and it always will.
The honest version, fortnightly
No campaign calendar, no filler. When there is nothing to say we do not send anything.
