BATTLES FOR APPRENTICESHIP
Let's say you are a new member and you need a master. You have become enthralled with... Darth Silas but he already has an apprentice, You will PM him declaring a challenge and it will take place in the "Blood and Sand Trials Forge" subforum. There are two ways of battling, Die Duel or Battle of Wits. Here's a breakdown of how everything will go:
#1 PM the respective Master declaring the challenge. Apprentices need to keep an eye on your PMs also to accept the challenges.
#2 Keep an eye on the Battle subforum. When you see a thread titled "you vs. the apprentice", the two of you have 10 posts each to battle each other in a back-and-forth style. Challenger posts first. You can insult each other, say why you should be the apprentice instead of them, whatever just be creative, it's your 10 posts. Once the both of you have posted 10 times each (that's 20 total posts in the thread for you slow ones), the master will declare a winner. The choice will be totally up to that specific master, there is no vote.
#3 If you lose the battle, you have to wait 3 weeks to re-challenge to ANY master.
Now, I know your asking, What if the other person doesn't show up? Well, once the challenge is issued, the apprentice has 72 hours to respond or they forfeit. Once the battle starts and the first post is made, you have 48 hours to respond to each post. If anyone misses the set deadlines, that person forfeits the match.
THE MASTER'S CHOICE IN WINNER IS FINAL. THERE WILL BE NO WHINING AT ALL.
If the current apprentice meets the requirement during a battle, the master reserves the right to end the battle at that moment, promote the apprentice, and take the challenger as the new apprentice.
