Greetings,

as you may or may not be aware, it won't be that much longer untill the Jedi Academy has officially been around for five years. This, of course, calls for a celebration! We are thinking of 'going back to the roots' of the JA, coming up with the following idea:

A Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast Tournament!

Yep, that's right, if there is enough interest and I can get around to acually host one, there is going to be such a Tournament. I'm not promising anything, though. It's still in an early stage, with just about everything still having to be arranged, but before we start working on it it'd be good to know how many people have a potential interest.

That's a lot of 'ifs', but I'll do my best to make it happen. I'm thinking of a 1vs1 Tournament, very similar to the TiTs. So yeah, what are your thoughts on this? Who'd like to join in if there's gonna be a JK2 Tourney?

jk3 server activy is not too good it seems.
what about jk2? any of our servers had any players in past days?

That's why I started this thread. Apparently, there's interest in JK2 still. :)

Exactly! (Though this doesn 't go for me, I never played JK2 until very recently :P)

Yeah, that's exactly the reason, like Darthmaul said. If we hold simultaneous Tourneys, there's a risk people will get scattered over the Tourneys, making the first rounds also the finals :P
Why JK2 and not JK3? There's an upcoming aniversary, and JK2 is the JA's roots. Also, there are JK3 Tourneys, but no JK2 Tourneys these days. It might be fun to do it for those reasons :)

why not have a jk2 and jk3 tourney? o.0 like..both o.o then anyone who doesent like or doesent have either can play.


Plenty of Crap Academy tournaments already, the official TiT's being the biggest.

Besides, if it will be both games, than barely anyone will play JKII, at least to make it a worthwhile tournament.

On another note, I'll have to get myself a copy of JKII again if I want to do this....

remember some of the problems we had in previous tourneys. one tourney is difficult enough, two at the same time on the other hand is highly unlikely to succeed...

Come on now, every Generation X boy wanted to be Luke Skywalker. Is it because he was a whiney farm boy from some backwater hack planet? No, it's because he was a FREAKING JEDI. He could block lasers with his lightsaber. He could levitate droids & rocks & crap with his mind. Come on, he choked two pig dudes with just a simple gesture. He cut off Darth Vader's hand and kicked him down a flight of stairs. He got his @$$ zapped by lightning from the geezer Emperor, stood up and said "s'at all you got b!tc#??"
