Here stand the best treasure hunters the guild has ever been graced with...for the time being. If a member starts to get too cozy at the top of the roster, then they've been there too long!

[[Image:event-thg-bullet.jpg]] Ocean Rankings
The guild promotes cross-ocean competition. Bragging rights belong to the ocean with the greatest number of the greatest hunters...period! These are not all of the guild hunters. This roster only shows those that have succeeded in earning guild point statuses.

 * width="750px"|Guilds are competitive, just like the pirates that join them, just like the oceans that battle side-by-side, just like the many hunters all racing to the same end. The roster is where folks can check out who's involved and ruling the ranks of the guild.  The Guild Roster reports not only the hunters of every ocean, but also the top treasure hunters of all time (at the time).  Tracing a great hunter's progress is easy...catching up to them is the hard part.

Guild Points
The guild awards pirates for diligent hunting. Not only does each treasure you win remain yours, but members of the guild will also receive Guild Points (GP). Each puzzle a hunter solves will earn them anywhere between 1 and 6 GP. Remember, members only receive points upon claiming their prizes.

Echo Points
Echo points are guild points awarded to members who successfully answer the puzzle before the submission box is closed. Technically, submissions are closed once the correct solution has been found, however often times several pirates will complete the puzzle near the same time. These additional consolation points are awarded like this:


 * Solutions sent to THG_Green (difficulties 1-3) will recieve 1 GP.
 * Solutions sent to THG_Red (difficulties 4-6) will recieve 2 GP.

There will only be 1 echo point awarded per ocean per puzzle.

Ocean Privilege
Ocean Privilege is an honor bestowed upon the ocean with most dominant GP count. OP is not based on a total accummulative ocean GP score, but instead is based on the highest number of GP gained on the last board. Echo points will not be honored in the awarding process.

What does ocean privilege mean? Simple. The ocean who gains the advantage of OP will play host as the battleground to win any SOS that the guild releases for the current board. So win some points for your ocean, and you'll have yerself home ocean advantage when (or if) an SOS tournament or event takes place.

Oceans recieving OP will be denoted in the Ocean Rankings with a star beside the ocean name.

First Initial Submitting Hunter
The First Initial Submitting Hunter or FISH (we acknowledge the redundancy of "First-Initial") is a pirate who submits a solution to a treasure post first. The guild recognizes that some puzzles are more difficult than others, and when a hunter is able to complete the majority of a puzzle in a brief and accurate manner, the guild will contact that pirate and give them a nod. If the hunter is far off the mark, the guild will merely shake their heads, implying the hunter (upon their next submission, be there one at all), may want to rethink their train of thought.


 * FISH will occur for the puzzles of higher difficulty (3-6)
 * A pirate may only be a FISH once per board.

The obvious advantage is having the knowledge that you are either "hot" or "cold". The disadvantages are fairly obvious, as well: Having to wait another turn with said insight could drive a hunter mad. And, of course, rushing to send the first submission could cost a hunter dearly.

Guild Ranks
The guild is all about showcasing its fiercest and finest hunters. And while having your name on a guild plaque is respectable enough, the THG has found it necessary to adorn its members with humble but heart-felt tokens of mettle. The following is the list of Medals of Mettle and their requirements.
