[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.

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.
