Question 1: Setup. Icco, send your info over to Mune to see how he can incorporate it into what he has written already. Mune, let me know what you think.

Question 5: Slang. I like Halendor's idea. If you guys have places to go that would take care of this, then in NO WAY do I want to have to repeat it. Absolutely not. I just didn't know a lot of it myself, and thought it would be helpful. A few links to other dictionaries would be fine by me, along with special JA terms that aren't known by many people outside. (Thanks for the links, Cyb.) Is someone volunteering here? Halendor has already jumped on 8.

Question 8: FAQ. I'm not happy with the FAQ the JA has right now. I don't believe it covers enough. Mune sent me his Question 1 text entitles "Jedi Outcast for Dummies" which should help answer some initial questions of how to get set up, etc. I will look at this further, edit, and pass it along to both of you, Halendor and Exar. Take a look at it. What I'm looking for is an FAQ that very well may provide links to information we have already written about. If this is the case, there will be no need to rewrite. Just put the link there, and the person will automatically go to the spot within the Holocron. HOWEVER, we may be missing some things. I don't know. I'd like you two to scour through the threads/posts for dumb (seemingly to us) noob questions. If we don't address these within the Holocron already, the FAQ should be a place to include the answers. I am going to assume that once we are done with our FAQ, it will replace the one the JA currently has. (I would assume, DJ, doobie, and other decision-makers, that this would not be something you'd have a problem with! : ) )

Does all that make more sense?

Oh, and Halendor? No, I don't want you to answer questions about Star Wars. If someone needs to ask questions about this universe, they AREN'T WORTHY OF PLAYING THIS GAME. ;) Nah, you know I'm just kidding. But no, just worry about JK2 issues.

Could you please find out who did an FAQ already then? It would be useless do to things twice.

About section 5. I think the best way is to take the most used terms around this community (try the JA-bot IRC stats), AND include a link to a list that has been already made.

Hmm.. I thought someone already made a FAQ.. and yeah the chat thingy doesnt really have to do with the JA, it is very useful ofcourse but tons of em are made already, maybe we should link to one of them or copy em (check for example these out: http://starwarsgalaxies.station.sony.com/digest/glossary.jsp and http://www.012.net/pages/text/chatDictionary/chatDictionary.html (think the first one is some better)).
I could of done the first section but the rest wouldnt really fit me I think. Btw mune I think with setting up the servers he means entering the ip.

Should we get rid of section 5? Internet slang really has nothing to do with JK2 OR the Academy.

I'm sure there are sites that have huge lists of terminology though. Could we just add a link?

I'll try to work on part 8. I'll skim the Academy Forums for any questions that are related to this Jedi Academy and the Jedi Knight II game.

I don't think its neccecary to also include questions concerning Star Wars, but if you want me to, I will.

btw, Mune - I don't wanna set a date yet (again), 'cause I don't want to miss it (again). Things are progressing well, so that's ok.

I've got another serious GIS project to do for the next week, so I'll be layin' a little low RE: working on my section of the Holocron. Just an FYI.

The Holocron will be out soon, tho. Just everyone keep working on stuff.

As usual, you guys rock. Thanx for all your help.

Icco - Cool. Keep truckin.

Darth - Go ahead with classes. Thanks.

Mune - Icco is right: I want it so an idiot can do this. Heck, the explanation we have on the JA site right now could get deleted, and linked to our section within the Holocron..._if_ you do a good enough job. (MWAHAHAHAHA!) ;) :)

Aeth - Got 'em. Thanks. See return mail with my comments on your, uh, comments. :D

MoS - Ever heard of the dude named Bobbitt? :eek: ;)

o wait one other thing! MUNE this one is for you!

Talk about what you do to install jk2.

put in disk...

talk about updating to 1.04

download file save in .... double click press ok and what not

then install maps

download this and extract to here(list where to get winzip)

then skins repeat above

keep going intill u have turned a JK2less machine into an uber $|_|P3R |337 g@/\/\i/\/g and J|<2ing machine.

Translation. make it so an idiot can open the jedi knight 2: jedi outcast box and become a JA member with all of the servers and maps and skins available.(imean every server and map on the servers)

dont forget that this is not something for the weak connected.

(none of this dialupjunk)

and finally goodluck if you havnt got a clue ill do it in 4 weeks :P

I want the first one! I'm not sure what you mean when you say "setup and join the JA servers". Join, of course I understand, but setup???
And because I STILL have no idea, is there even a due date anymore???:confused:
Until next time...

I'll take #3. DB has the most Padawans ever, so I can probably mooch some Masterly reflection about the topic without him knowing what it's for.

I would help but I can't think how any of that stuff would specifically apply to me, since the system has changed a bit since I joined, and I'm in no position to do the paddy master thing. I could compile the list of JAT's and JAK's but all that takes is to go to the about us page and copy and paste, hardly worth me sending that over is it :D
