Quaestor Report

Gladians:

Allow me to apologize for the late report. As many of you already know I found out recently that I will be losing my job in July, so I have been asked to finish up a number of projects before my last day, and I have been searching for a new job. A few possibilities have presented themselves, but the job market is pretty grim right now so I'm preparing for a long and difficult search. I will do my best to make sure it has little to no impact on my work as your Quaestor, but as I have told many of you in the past: real life always takes precedence over the online Star Wars club. That's how it is, and how it must be.

On a happier note, the Run-On continues. Even if you do not participate, please be sure to read it because this story is the impetus for some fundamental changes to the House. I highly recommend taking the Run-On Studies course at the Shadow Academy if you don't feel comfortable just jumping in. As with anything, your House Summit is here to help: we would be pleased to help you proofread or edit your work before you post it, explain elements of the story that may not make sense, or whatever else will help you be a part of it.

Just in case you don't have it, here is the link to the Run-On: http://www.darkjedibrotherhood.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=5773

[Closure]

"Honestly, I think you should just leave," Apollo chimed in. "We'll forward a list to the Dark Council ourselves. It'll save you some time, and frankly I'm not sure our boys will be very pleased to see your friends here snooping around in their home."

"That, ah, will not be possible. I will need quarters for myself and my men. We have brought our own supplies, which your technicians have already taken care of. Ah, we won't be here more than a week, then we'll be out of your hair."

"Fine," Scion spat. "Dralin, please see to it that this man and his Dark Council soldiers find their way to their quarters. Then check that their supplies have been stowed appropriately. The rest of you, get out of here unless Dralin needs your assistance."


Turning down numerous corridors, the mental map of Sword's Sheath that Dralin had constructed in his mind never wavered; he counted on the fact that the DC men would not have this aptitude. Taking them through the twists and turns of his asteroid home, he led them deeper into the base.

"Ah, we seem to be rather far from the living quarters, do we not?"

"They are filled up with loyal Gladians. I'm sure you wouldn't want them to be in your way." Pressing the pad next to the door with his fingertips, the doors opened, revealing a dark corridor. "Surely you wouldn't like to be crammed into one room, so I am opening a corridor of the inner asteroid for you to stay in. That would hardly be playing the part of a gracious host."

Gulping visibly, the Auditor led his men in, unsure of what the DC had sent them into.

[Promotions and Awards]

I'd like to welcome APP Revincia into our home. Our newest Gladian comes to us from the Shadow Academy.

[Journeyman Requirements]

Journeymen, please review the Promotion Requirements to get a clear picture of what you need to work on for your next rank. If you need a copy of your activity record to figure out where you stand, just ask!

http://www.darkjedibrotherhood.com/wiki/index.php?title=Promotion_Requirements

If you are a Journeyman and you have "run a competition with the help of your House Summit" as one of the requirements for your next promotion, now is your chance! The GJW is over, which means we can once again run House competitions! Talk to Apollo and me about your competition ideas, and we'll help you go through the steps to schedule and run it.

Similarly, if you need to train in the ACC I'll take any challengers from Gladius. The new Combat Master has changed the rules so that only ACC Staff members can do qualification matches, but I can still do training battles. They don't count for anything, but they are great practice and I'm happy to give tips and pointers if you need them. To set up a training match, just pick a venue and some weapons from the list on the ACC site. Email the Combat Master and Deputy Combat Master (and CC me) with the venue, your weapons, and my weapons (DL-44 blaster and my lightsaber). If you have any questions, please ask me!

Need help with your next promotion? Your House Summit is here to help. Ask Dralin, Apollo or myself and we'll help you get everything figured out.

[djbDiplomacy]

I have set up a little unofficial web based game that I'm testing out. It's been running with a few folks from IRC for awhile now and I think I have all the major bugs worked out. It's based on the board game "Diplomacy" in which you play a European country and try to conquer territory. Don't let it distract you from the GJW, but it's a good way to have a little fun. Anybody with a DJB dossier number can play, and anybody can set up a game. Just round up five or six friends and start up a new game.

http://djbdiplomacy.divineright.org

Just so you know, this is a long term type of game. You will spend 10 or 15 minutes figuring out what orders to give your units each day, then wait for everyone else to do the same. If you have questions about how to play, there are basic instructions on the front page of the site with pictures. If you still have questions, shoot me an email and I'll help you out.
