New RP Restrictions?

[Netdroid9]

The problem with being able to challenge a Sensei is that people don't seem to realise what a big job it can be. Now, where were we? Oh yeah:

[LordPsycho]

You guys thought we were done...but I have one more thing to do!

I'd like to nominate EnDSchultz, original Headmaster and founder of the EC, to the role as Owl Sensei.

He may not look like it now, but who better to lead the "leadership" style than the one who created and led what has become the most powerful RP group in the CC?

I'd second that nomination, but it's really up to EnD as to whether he even wants to be a Sensei or not.

Sorry, but I still think Lordship would be a good Owl. He has shown me some of his long-term plans, and I have to admit they were pretty conniving.

He did give me a decent sounding idea to pass on, though. He said a fusion of the owl and fox clans might be a good idea. As he put it:

[Danikat]

I'd argue against that, because although the Fox and Owl styles are undeniably similar there are important diffrences between the two as well.

Mainly the fact that whilst both like to keep their actions and motives hidden from others Owls are more likely to be working behind the scenes to turn events to their advantage, whereas Foxes will simply be watching and waiting for an oppertunity to present itself.

Owls might (appear to) work with others, helping them and encoraging them along a path that benefits the Owl. Whereas Foxes will keep to themsleves, working alone and avoiding unnessesary interaction with other players.

But the main objection is that I would consider Danikat a Fox but I don't think she qualifies for the Owl style at all.

[HisLordship]

So you'd be working for me, then? Hrm...


Mein Furher! I can post! Danké, to whomever I owe zis priviledge.

[LordPsycho]

Whilst we're arguing the point, why don't we combine the Mantis and Tiger styles? Powers, Weapons, their all the same, right?

I feel the Tigers are as different from the Mantis' as the Owls are from Foxes. The differences are subtle yes, but very important.

[Danikat]

I can't remember if this was gone over before or not, but considering the original reason this system was put in place I thought I'd ask:

Will the Sensi's of each style (and the admins if the situation comes up with red and yellow belts) have the authority to retract a belt if nessesary?

Its highly unlikely but lets say for example that someone earned a green belt in the Tiger style, and then for some reason (maybe they created a new "better" character) started power-playing.
Would DP have the authority to retract their belt until they learned from the mistake?

Edit: Nevermind, post by Embri in the other discussion topic answered my question.

[Shaon]

To challenge, I nominate myself for Fukuro Sensei.

I took Danikat's test as Para, and I got owl. This was rather unexpected, but looking back, she is clearly owl. Kumo is far more spiderine.

Besides, if an owl leads the foxes, a fox should lead the owls.

You've all been waiting for me to post my Chameleon criteria.... And, seriously, if you go for this, it might just destroy your soul

The Chameleon Style will end all stlyes

But seriously, if I'm to be associated with the Masters Rank, then I have to make this fairly difficult in order to avoid looking like a soft touch.... (No begging! )
