It is a requirement as a member of UFOP:SB118 to meet full time simming requirements of at least 12 sims a month, or an average of 3 times a week. Everyone on the Constitution-B will be expected to meet this requirement unless a reason has been communicated to the ship’s Command Staff beforehand. As a ‘Full Time’ writer you are eligible for promotions and department chief roles.

Players who write at least 9 sims a month are considered a "Part Time" writer - any less than that (without reason) may be treated as an LOA. It is important to note that a writer may only be considered Part time for a short duration, generally only for a few months, and an action plan must be agreed to with the ship's Command Staff and the writer to return them to Full Time status as soon as practicable.

Only your main character will get ranks and promotions officially. You may sim an enlisted crewman of any rank, but all officers must be the same rank as your main character or lower. This means that if you are a Lieutenant, then you can not sim a PNPC that is a Lieutenant Commander.

You may, temporarily, sim an NPC of any rank up to Captain (such as the Captain of a visiting vessel)- but their presence should be appropriate and their interactions brief. This is not an opportunity to order around the Lieutenant Commanders, no matter how much fun that could hypothetically be.

To be promoted means that both your commanding officer and the rest of the fleet (you'll be surprised who reads your sims...) have judged you worthy of being recognized for your efforts. The Constitution promotion guidelines match those of the [[Promotions|SB118 Promotion Guide]]. You can find the individual rank guides here:

These officers have a history of high level simming ability and a secure grasp of how things work on the USS Constitution-B and in the Fleet. Because our mentors have the responsibility of shaping some of the Fleet's future leaders, we do not take it lightly. On the contrary, to be a mentor means both dedication to the rules and setup of the Starbase 118 Fleet as well as knowledge of writing and simming overall.
