First topic message reminder :

After a lengthy discussion, we have decided that we are going to be overhauling our testing system. This is Duel Academy, and Slifers are our main concern. We have noticed that only two people have passed  from Slifer to Ra in a long while, so we're changing how you get from Slifer to Ra, in addition to what you have to do to get there.

You all should have a room that you create in your dorm, yes? This is where you will store your accomplishments in Duel Academy. The more you do, the more you are rewarded for your efforts. Slifers can post on their dorm threads achievements they have, and when they have all of the required things done, as well as enough points to advance from Slifer to Ra, we promote them. Simple as that.

First of all, let's go over the test.

The test will be 50% rulings, 50% dueling. The pass mark on the tests are a combined total of 85%, but you need to get at least 75% on each test to take the other, and pass the exam.

So, as a few examples, if Anzo gets a 77 on one test and a 95 on the other, he will have passed the test accomplishment. If Amy Kool gets 80 on both tests, she will have failed the test accomplishment. If Jin Kazama gets a 98 on rulings and a 74 on the dueling, he will have failed the test accomplishment.

Slifer Accomplishments

Accomplishing things in DA is the new way of going from Slifer to Ra! The following are a list of accomplishments you can achieve:

Required:
Pass Slifer Test. Test is based out of 100. 50% Dueling, 50% Ruling Questions. Value in Achievements: 20.
Post 200 times. Value in Achievements: 10.
Duel at least 100 times. Value in Achievements: 15.


Optional:

This seems complicated, but here's what it means.

There are 140 points in total. You need 110 to get from Slifer to Ra, and must have all of the required items.

If there are any questions, please post them here! I'll be taking care of this personally for a little bit to facilitate the changes required!

Just friendly humor and jokes between companions. Also, Anzo is an admin/Abandoned Purple Dorm.

Hm.....I think when you take a test, you will need to list all of your achievements out.

Just a quick question: On this "rules of testing" post, it says that 200 posts are required in, terms of achievements, to test. On Amy Kool's "rules of testing" post, only 20 are required. I was just wondering which number I should trust.
