I'm curious as to see what happens here, when we change over, will the jats stay jats and just learn the new game or will we all get bumped down to students no one with any privellages, and then while the jacs prepare a trial, and those of us good at the new game take the trial and take jat. And then learn from there and teach? Or what?

well, as Jake Kanaite said, there is much more behind a JAK or JAT than just skill.

when jk3 comes out there will be a horrible computer virus embedded in the program. it will take over every networked computer system in the world. so none of this really matters anyway.

thank you for your time.

Once we convert over, the ranks will stay the same, the JACs won't be taking away people's ranks just because we are converting over to a new game.

I think that the JAKS and JATS should stay. For in all likeliness if you were good at jk2 your gonna be good at jk:jo. Basically the same game with more stuff. I don't think that luke is suddenly going to be a noob because of the new game. There should be new additions though for people who master the new saber styles and force combos, but i believe everyone who put in the time and found wortyh of JAK OR JAT should keep thier positions.

Just a thought, some people are talking about judging it on playing skill to decide the new ranks quickly, and thus everyone should start over. But how do you grade that? I'm sure most people here will say "well if they are a l337 dueler, make em a JAT" thats just silly :P I for one am not gonna specialise, just like JKII. I'm gonna play everything, and keep playing them untill I KNOW everything.

I kinda think in a way, all players under the council should start over. The players with skills will definitely rise quickly to the top. But then my common sense sinks in and says, HEY.. THESE PEOPLE ROCK!!!!! With skill, knowledge, patience, and friendship they have paved the way for all of us and made their journey to where they now sit. They definitely deserve to stay where they are and I'm sure it won't be long with their resolve before they all climb right back into the roles of where they are. :D The Jedi Academy RULES!!!!!!!!

Just a thought about what was said much much earlier.
Someone said that the whole site and servers and that would be converted from JO to JA. But I think it'd be a good idea to have a list somewhere in the site that has all of the members of the JA, and your name ticked off if you have the game.
So when everyone has the game, the whole site could be converted.
Also, it would be good for ppl who want to know who else has the game.:)

Tentatively, we are going to move some existing JAKs/JATs to JA just so we keep the structure intact. Naturally, there prolly won't be much difference between the students and the teachers for a while, but it's the best thing I can think of.

Yeah we can make saberstaff trainers, single bladed trainers, 2 saber trainers, and trainer who can use them all good. Just a thought :)

So for example if a JAS(Jedi Academy Student)who is usin ither staff or dual saber adapts to it quicker that ne 1 else will he/she be apointed to be a JAT or JAK?
Or will they have to take the trials as well?

Rest assured, the management is aware of the fact that we are going to have to adapt. We're working on it right now. The goal is obviously to have it go as smooth as possible.

As far as JATs and JAKs and whatnot go:

I think we're going to need new JAKs/JATs to 'specialise' in games. It seems to me that having a JAT specialise in one type of saber fighting would be beneficial. How it works out will be seen in the coming months....

Apparently, JA is really different from JO. If it is different, people need to be retrialed for the demand, the skills to be mastered, have changed. I do see there's going to be a orgisational problem with trialling, but for now, let's only make a statement on the theory.

Darth, skills are the most important part of the trials, if you could become a JAT because of your kindness and attitude, why am i not a JAT? :D

I guess the students will just have to learn their moves from a JAT wich uses the same saber (just like your master should have the same force side).Unless for example there are no JATs that use 2 sabers (very unlikely) the JATs should think about learning to use all sabertypes.

u know playin the beta of jk3 made me realize something, since there is 3 diff type of sabers to choose from (staff saber,dual saber,and single saber)will the JAT's have to learn the two new saber styles? or will some JATs learn how to use one or the other or both so they can teach the students who chose to use the staff or dual sabers?
