The newest member of the JAT team! -doobie- Dec 03 07:12am -38 comments-
So DJ and I were in IRC today chatting and we said, "hey, remember when we used to trial people we felt deserved to be trialed? Let's do that, how about FaDed? Ok, good!" So we got him, took him to jk3, he wowed us there, took him to jk2, he wowed us there, interviewed him, he wowed us there, and we said "He's good, he's REAL good... he's our newest JAT!" So we told him and then kicked the crap out of him :)

But seriously, FaDed proved his worth to DJ and I and showed that he'll make a fantastic JAT. ALthough some of you may have a problem with our unorthodox trial (and you shouldn't, since FaDed was already a proven JAK, plus the fact that we really did use to trial people this way and it worked out nicely), nonetheless, it's hard to dispute FaDed's deserving of this promotion, and we have a condump of his interview coming shortly (along with a JK2 demo of his ceremony. So everyone, please, raise your sabers, your bryars, and your glasses and congratulate FaDed, our newest JAT!

Looks like we've got another staff member! -DJ Sith- Dec 02 10:18am -23 comments-
AsoAron has been given a staff position here at the Academy. He's your go-to guy for any and all things IRC related. You've got questions? He's got answers! He runs JABot and should be able to handle whatever you have for him. Congrats, Aso! Welcome to the team!

Happy Thanksgiving! -Silent Whisper- Nov 27 01:26pm -33 comments-
Even if you don't celebrate it, it is still a great day to relfect on what we are thankful for. I am thankful for the great people here at the academy. What are you thankful for?

JA MP SDK released! -DJ Sith- Nov 27 11:29am -23 comments-
The long awaited Software Development Kit for Jedi Academy has been released! You know what that means! Chosen One tells me he'll be working all weekend to get our admin mod working in JA. It won't be long now! Those who wish to play coder can get the SDK here.

Tournament Results -doobie- Nov 24 06:52pm -2 comments-
Now that the tournament has started, we should start getting results in. You may be wondering, who do I tell and how do I tell them that I lost/won/reffed a match? Well, here's how:

The WINNER (and no one else, so we don't get a flood of emails) should send an email to FaDed, skyler_, and me (doobie) telling us who fought, what the score was (2-1, 2-0, etc.), and who the referee was. You should also make a post on this forum thread so everyone can keep track of the results.

If the winner doesn't report the results he will lead us to assume the match was never fought, and therefore both people would forfeit. So those of you who win should remember to send those results to us :)

EDIT: Also, if you're having trouble finding your opponent, on the last day of each round you should send us an email stating that you did in fact try to contact the person. Tell us what exactly did, and don't lie, because we have ways of finding out if you do (and i don't need to mention that lying is a forfeit :))

Let the games begin!!! -JAcen LW Solo- Nov 23 09:25pm -11 comments-
As of 12 AM GMT TIT2 (Thanksgiving Invitational Tourny 2) is officialy open.

There will be a small opening cerimony for the competitors before the games begin.

That's right, there are still slots open for the Thanksgiving Invitational Tournament 2! We seem to have a shortage of people East of the Atlantic wanting to sign up, so we've opened that bracket up to anyone, no matter where you live, as long as you think you can make "European times" (mornings and late nights and whatnot). We still have 10 slots open, so check it out here and sign up!

Also, for those of you in the western side of the tournament, the brackets have been posted. Follow the same link to check them out.
