We're famous!

That's right, we are famous, as we are known world-wide! Or maybe in Sweden. Here's some quotes from what just happened on IRC.

(Only_DtoX) But I read about this site in a magazine
(`Flash`) ...
(`Obi-Wan) in a magazine?
(`Obi-Wan) !
(darkwood) magazine? :o
(jello`) what magazine?
(Only_DtoX) swedish PCGAMER
(darkwood) really?
(Only_DtoX) YES
(`Flash`) www.thejediacademy.net?
(Only_DtoX) YES
(Leaf|JAK|) WERE FAMOUS
(Leaf|JAK|) W00t!!

Cool, huh?

Here's what he just said was written about us:

www.thejediacademy.net This site is organized training for those who want to play the JK games online on another level. The academy is driven by a bunch of playerse who have taken the name Jedi Council who take apprentices and teach them according to Padawan Master principles. The students practice their skills and when they are done they take their apprentices.

Not entirely accurate, but w00t!

BTW, how the hell did some swedish mag find out about us?

squibit you're so damn picky!!! of course its not going to be exactly how it works here, you';d have to be a member, be around for a bit and conduct some 1 on 1 interviews to get all the ins and outs of this place, I think its pretty much spot on in a broader sense...

By another level they mean people who don't just logon and play, but people who take the game beyond the playing, and setting up a whole community like here :D

the padawan/master principle thingy, thats spot on, thats exactly what goes on here, we learn and teach people :D

about taking on new apprentices, everyone does that (hopefully, in a sense :S) byt helping people with their training and generally trying to improve everyones skill level, whilst upping their own.

Don't take everything so literally :D

I agree with squibit. I didn't notice until he posted. :P

Good thing you pointed it out. Now I change "w00t" into "w00t for being famous, but B00 for getting the description wrong.".

How did they find out about us ?

Another level? antoehr level to what?
This suggests we are elitists which while for many is true, for many is WRONGO!

Quote:

Not only the council take apprentices, "padawan master principles"? LOL what does that mean ? as in like the SW universe, well as they only allow 1 paddy per master, WRONGO

Quote:
The students practice their skills and when they are done they take their apprentices.

Two things WRONGO wit htis, 1) we are never done practising our skills, 2) we don't have to take apprentises!

All in all W00T and K0olies for being famos, but whoever wrote that knows little about us,

I think the council should rewrite it properly and send it off to sweeden for an update :)

w00tsies for being famous. now we are going to get like a bijillion applicants.

we should hire an agent to help us with addvertising and score us movie deals.

seriously though i want to know how this magazine found out about us and how they were able to just print something without our permission.
