Yeah, that's right, your benevolent dictator is taking a vacation to Germany. I'll be gone today through Sunday, the 16th, so if you need any JAC stuff (or leader stuff) taken care of, ask one of the other JAC-asses on the Council. Take care, don't cause any havoc and destroy my precious Academy while I'm gone!

The Great Huxley has done it again, getting 2 more servers for us. [JA] CTF Server is a server strictly dedicated to Capture the Flag gameplay. [JA] Facility is a normal FFA server. So hop on those and test your ping people!!

You may have noticed that none of the recent news posts have been by me. Dj hired me to do the fricken news, so why won't you give me any?!? Anyways, a reminder. To submit news, gimmie an email here. Try and make it sensible stuff please. I don't really wanna post news about DJ and Silent's bedroom antics thankyou Insaniac...
Well, you can all get back to your Communist revolutions now...

Open Session -JA > Yun- Mar 03 11:12pm -15 comments-

Amoung the chitter chatter of the Trainers/Counsil/Staff... I proposed an idea of a open session... Basicly what happens is that if a trainer is to choose a open session as a class type, no one would be able to enroll, and anyone would be able to join the "class". Trainers will be open to any questions and training they want, so students will be able to get onto a one on one with the trainers as well as OTHER STUDENTS. Now I've been hosting unoffical Open sessions every night at 1:00am my time... I'll be marking this as a class time. If you support this new cause, post here, give your thoughts and comments

It looks like Silent Whisper is back with us again as a Council member! Her new job here is "Enforcement". She'll be making sure our rules are getting followed. This means that if you need to report someone send your evidence her, not the council's email account. Those that remember her know she'll do great at this.  Welcome back, Whispy!

Problems with Skins DB -Loaf- Feb 27 09:57am -8 comments-

A while back, i posted news about the Jedi Academy Student's Skins Database, and i've recieved alot of emails about adding skins, but the worst has come to the worst and I can't add any more because:
¬ The Phantom Menace TC now control the site.
¬ I was emailed by the host saying that I'm using up to much space.
So I'm sorry to all those people who have been emailing skins to me.

Help medical science without donating your brain! -doobie- Feb 26 11:40am -16 comments-

All you need to donate is your spare CPU cycles. Ulic Belouve, philanthropist extraordinaire, has set up a Folding@Home team for the JA to lend its CPUs to. What is Folding@Home? Funny you should ask:
"Folding@Home is a distributed computing project which studies protein folding, misfolding, aggregation, and related diseases. We use novel computational methods and large scale distributed computing, to simulate timescales thousands to millions of times longer than previously achieved. This has allowed us to simulate folding for the first time, and to now direct our approach to examine folding related disease."
So head on over to the Folding@Home site, download the client, and put 31419 as your team number and help the JA do something good for the world! You can check our team progress at this site, although it looks like it only updates every few hours with new members.
