Ok, I'm looking for an unofficial padawan. I've been with the academy for almost a year now and I think that I'm ready to pass my knowledge of the game on to a newer generation. I don't ask requirements but I prefer someone with not much experience. Just drop a comment on my profile and we'll see what happens. :)

Looking for a Padawan.
Requirements:
1) open, reasonable mind. i don't adhere to some of academy's teachings and like my padawan to objectively assess things before coming to conclusions. also, i really really don't want delusional people who think they're good when they're not. that just pisses me off.

2) diligence. if you don't like to practice, try, fail, etc, don't apply. I'm pretty unsympathetic if you don't at least try. this master-padawan relationship will last quite a long time (usually takes around half a year to get from newbie to good) and i want someone who's as committed as i am. I'm willing to have at least 3 padawan sessions a week, probably 4.

3) maturity/likability/honesty. i don't like jackasses and fake people. don't apply if you think you have to pretend to be someone you're not to get my acceptance. and yes, i can tell when people are being disingenuous. i've had plenty of experience. i'll be honest with you and i expect the same in return.

non-requirements
1) skill. yeah, you don't have to be particularly good. i'm a pretty good/patient teacher. if i can't make you better, no one will. seriously. i'll try very hard.

Credentials:
1) around 5 years of playing experience with single saber. yes, that's 5 years. you can't buy experience.

I am looking for an apprentice and/or sparrying partner.

I already have one padawan, however, I have room for one or two more, this time i'd want someone, who is interested in learning yellow style mainly - I want to pass down what I've learnt under my Master :)

Please bare in mind i've started to learn how to teach others, for this experience will be most likely as new as for you to learn something. It should benefit both of us.

Timezone does not matter: I am able to play from 9pm till even 5 am if you wish. Timezone GMT+1 - as long as you fit into times I mentioned, you are fine!


I'd really prefer some newbie or inexperienced player, as it's always better to start from scratch, but as long as you meet all previous criteria and want to spend time with me... post in my profile. :)

I'll most likely want to get to know you first, to avoid the situation of training with you few sessions and then seeing you disappear, but ones who are true to learning will do just fine. :)

Declaration of Intent to Accept Apprentice(s) for Training Under the My Masterful Tutelage.

:alliance::alliance::alliance::alliance::alliance::alliance::alliance::alliance::alliance::alliance::alliance::alliance::alliance::alliance::alliance::alliance::alliance::alliance::alliance::alliance::alliance::alliance::alliance::alliance::alliance::alliance:

Greetings all readers! It is I, Cornelius Muffinstein, better known (and FEARED) as Darth Baker, the one and only Sith Lord from the planet Korribun. Let it be known that all your baked goods R BELONG TO ME! Now that my glorious self-introduction is complete, I shall go on to the substance of my message.

Since my victorious campaign against the challengers to my rule, Jedi and Sith alike, I sit alone atop my throne in solitude, growing weary of the lull of peacetime. Such is the price of my dominance! Bakin' ain't easy you see. Alas, a true Sith must constantly seek challenges and I cannot linger on in complacency any longer! Peace is for the weak and become a Sith of leisure, I WILL NOT.

I have decided, in rare moment of charity, to take on worthy apprentices for training. My selection process will be grueling and intensive, requiring all applicants to endure several trials designed to test their potential! This is necessary for without the required physical fortitude and Midicholrian count, a person cannot possibly withstand my training methods. My preliminary trials will simply weed out the weak, separating the men from the girly men, the Alphas from the Betas, the Tallepyons from the Mangrepyons. An applicant will have to pass three of the following five tests to receive the opportunity to be trained by me.

Test A: Fighting the Sith Lord
I, Darth Baker, shall battle the applicant in a duel to the death. If the applicant can reduce my health below 75 hp before being obliterated, he passes.

Test B: Fighting for the Sith Lord
The applicant shall slay opponents as a demonstration of their skills. To pass this test, the applicant must slay 5 opponents within 10 minutes, by any means sufficient.

Test C: Charming the Sith Lord
To pass this test, the applicant must answer several questions from Me, the Dark Lord. If the answers are to my liking I shall have the discretion of passing the applicant. If not, I shall terminate the applicant with prejudice.

Test D: Feat of Strength
The applicant must display their physical strength by performing a parallel squat with a weight of 150 Kg or better. No smith machines, grunting, or pre-lift psych-up's allowed. Applicant must upload a youtube video of a squat conforming to the aforementioned standard to pass this test.

Test E: Feat of Endurance
The applicant must display his endurance by running a mile in 5 minutes or less. No treadmills, road running, or video speed manipulations allowed. Running must be done on a standard Olympic sized track under winds of 2.0 meters per second or less and a video of a run these restrictions must be uploaded to youtube to be valid.

An applicant will commence training as my apprentice upon passing and shall learn of the ways of the dark side as well as various assassination and saber tactics. Upon the completion of said training, there will be more tests to come...

I'd like to do this, I've been a member of the academy for awhile, I know about most of the aspects concerning certain saber styles (Yellow) and I would like the experience of teaching, as well as to meeting new people who play regularly on the Academy servers.

I am looking for a apprentice/training partner.

Please bare in mind i've never taught anyone, this experience will be new for both of us. Hopefully it will benefit us both.

What I can help you with;
Yellow stance
Red stance.

Obviously single saber and more Yellow than Red as i'm just learning that myself!

Requirements:

Friendly Attitude,
Not being afraid to ask questions,
Patience,
Willing to learn and to have fun,
Timezone: It doesn't matter but im GMT.

mace: you'll need to provide some information, as to what you want to learn, what timezone you are from. Otherwise the potential teacher will not know what you want to learn and it's unlikely they'll take you on. :)

Good luck.

I haven't had my hand at teaching anybody on a regular basis; I would like to step up and give it a try.

I prefer fighting purely with blue and yellow stances and that's what I believe I can teach best in terms of fighting. Although I can teach anything to beginners since I had my hand at all the saber types and red stance.

My style of fighting is quite aggressive so I could teach the tactics involved in pushing the offensive on people. I'm not much of a passive fighter, so I cant offer much in that area.

I'm also addicted to strafing and can teach that with a few ways to use it in dueling and ffa. Footwork in general is what I think I'm best at and I could give a few pointers with that.

Anyways, I'm not that picky and I can pretty much accept anybody. I guess being on once a week and able to make it on my GMT (-8)would be the most of anything I'd ask for. Oh and English speaking is a must of course. I also would prefer somebody who likes to learn blue/yellow without exploits (sway, poke, etc). Other than that...nothing really, no skill reqs, if you can make it when I can then I don't care what GMT your on.

I think that's it; if anybody is interested, just send me a comment.
