Academy Map Beta 3 -Virtue- Feb 20 08:49pm -33 comments-
Yes yes, after a long ordeal of mapping, caffine and prescription drugs, Beta 3 is finally here.

This is basically the Pre-Final Map guys, so nothing else will be added. The next step is just fixing small bugs and giving it proper lighting.
So yeah. Grab the Map here and get your butts onto the Servers for some public testing and fun. YAY!



...But I didn't shoot the deputy! -doobie- Feb 19 09:20pm -18 comments-
Weelllll, since Buzz got promoted, and Buzz was Whispy the Enforcer's Deputy, it seems only right that we give Buzz a Deputy. So we decided to name Mr. JABot himself, Aron, as Deputy. Deputy Aron is also going to be helping DJ out with some of the site coding stuff, so he's gonna be a busy guy! Welcome aboard Deputy!

A new server -JAcen LW Solo- Feb 16 11:51pm -17 comments-
Ladies and Gentleman, it came to my mind the other day that we had an old JK2 server dusting since we abandoned JK2 trials.

So with the help of Jacen Aratan I've changed it into an Instangib server.

Check it out on the Servers page and have fun.

A Word from the An0maly... -cHoSeN oNe- Feb 16 03:37pm -9 comments-
Hyah Fellas...as time has been going slowly since my retirement, I have been in an overall better place as far as RL goes. I have my time managed better as well as less stress. All of you now know that Orion has taken over the JAR and JA Mod projects and will continue their success in the admin mod industry. As far as modding goes, I have been able to put forth my effort back into the team I joined a while back. The Attack of the Clones Total Conversion. The leader has recently sent an email to me as it states:

Drop by their forums or by their IRC channel #WPJKJA and leave a word of apreciation for their server :)

Obey the rules! -doobie- Feb 15 05:02pm -18 comments-
As many of you may notice, our rules are pretty out of date. They were originally written about a year and a half ago in five minutes by me after a particularly frustrating day, and so aren't really up to date with what is going on in the Academy now. But that's about to change. Two of our trusted knights, Hardwired and Fizz took it upon themselves to start rewriting and revamping the rules. Their hard work continues, but the Council has decided to appoint them to the role of Rules Revampers/Maintainers, to recognize their hard work and to encourage them to finish! Congrats gents, we expect some sweet new rules soon!

Here comes the bride! -doobie- Feb 15 04:38pm -32 comments-
As many of you know, yesterday our official Academy hugger Angel D'kana was supposed to get married. Well we've received word that the ceremony went through and was a rousing success. Angel, we'd all like to congratulate you on your wedding and wish you and your new husband happiness for the rest of your life!

JA Policies and Structure -doobie- Feb 12 04:05am -15 comments-
This is a document I believe I've posted in the past, but just came across randomly on the web server and figured needed an update and some publicity. Hopefully it will clear up any misunderstandings those of you out there may have about policies and various roles and responsibilities.

Times, they are a'changin! -doobie- Feb 10 12:36am -49 comments-
Holy cow do we have a news post for you! See, the JACs FINALLY decided to have a meeting and wow was it a doozy! After a lot of deliberation and input from the staff, JAKs, and JATs, we've come to these conclusions:

-In order to replace cHoSeN-OnE, who retired, and Whispy, who is retiring (damn FF-XI!), we have named to the Jedi Academy Council Buzz as our new enforcer and Virtue as our new community liasion! Both of these gentleman have proven their value to the Academy repeatedly and are of the utmost character, intelligence, and honor. Welcome aboard guys! The Council is stronger with you around!

-Also as a means to replace the beloved c1, we have named Orion to the staff as Official Coder. He'll be assuming control of the JAR project.

-There are some changes in the JAT ranks as well. JACen Solo has stepped down as Lead Trainer to become Teaching Coordinator. The Lead Trainer position is now a JAT position and has been awarded to La Magra, with Luke Skywalker as Vice Lead Trainer. Since the Lead Knight position has been vacated, FaDed has been named to fill the position as our new Lead Knight with Lord Exar Kun as Vice Lead Knight.

This is an exciting time for the Jedi Academy. The Council and I feel that these changes will allow the Academy to continue to grow and thrive well into the future. FOR THE ACADEMY!

Edit: both Luke and Exar have accepted their positions. w00t!
