    If you're interested in Jedi Knight, you've come to the right place. Many of you know I've been posting announcements of games every few weeks and so forth. But I decided to go a step further (and stop cluttering JP's pristine forum with 6 million "JK THIS WEEK! WHOOT!!" threads), and schedule a "season" of Jedi Knight. I've painstakingly chosen games of every variety and possibility that I could cram into the fall/winter season on a once a week basis. It wasn't easy, some of this stuff is pretty far out there, while other stuff is just the old standard. I've also scheduled games for different days and times, in an attempt to make it possible for everyone to join plenty of games.

    And on top of all of that, I am working on the concept for a Jedi Knight ladder tourney near the end of winter...something oft talked about, and never, to my knowledge, attempted here at the JC. I plan to get with JP concerning this, and how it will work, and what we can use as a reward (besides the mere honor of knowing you are one of the best Jedi Knight players ever ;)). I will have more details concerning that at a later date.

    Below is a schedule of Jedi Knight games for the next four months. Anyone of any skill level is welcome. Bring your friends, your family, whoever you want. If you feel you don't wanna break into the public games without improving your JK skills, look me up, and I'm sure we can arrange some practice times. I will also give help with installing patches and levels...sometimes a sticky thing to figure out, if you're a beginner. I would like all Jedi Knight and JC newbies to know they are encouraged to introduce themselves into our games, and I also want to say I am very hopeful some of the past JC greats will return and join us as well. I've missed playing with so many of you guys...anyway, I hope everyone at least gives this concept of a Jedi Knight season a shot!

    Notes- All of the add on levels that willbe played throughout the year have been highlighted in yellow. Well, hopefully. I have never in my life attempted such difficult html coding, and I have a feeling there's going to be about 30 edits on this before I get it all right, so if you see this and it's all messed up and the html is crap, be patient, I'll get it all fixed eventually. :p

    To begin, here are the links to the most basic tool needed beyond Jedi Knight the game itself:

    Patch Commander- A handy tool to have and a way to use mods for Jedi Knight and Mysteries of the Sith. Download it Here

    JK Patch Enforcer- A newly created program to run patches. I've never tested it, in fact it's brand new. You can read about it on Massassi's front news page (well, for as long as it's news). I have no idea whether it's any good or not, but if you feel bold, give it a shot. You can download it Here.

    Sounds like fun Conne. It'll be nice if JP could arrange some colours or something for the winner, which undoubtebly would be me :p I'll be up for it definately. And I might be able to get a game in [face_shocked]

    Looks like fun. I might arrange some JK games during MotS month, since I don't have MotS

    Hmmp..."w00t", I believe, would be the phrase most befitting the occasion, in the popular (if painfully solecistic) vernacular of the Internet. You know I'm in whenever I can be. Every game needs some fodder. :p

    Edit: Ultima, sounds good to me; I'm in the same boat.

    I also have JK and MotS, the problem is that I took it off of my computer because I needed room for JO and JA.

    Of course there's always that tempting possibility of putting it back in for old times sake.

    :)

    I am possibly the worst person in the world at JK multiplayer, so that ought to provide some incentive for people.

    Tempting very tempting. However, I don't think my Cable modem could take it.

    Of course I think JK and JA have the best storylines.

    Hmm tempting very tempting.

    I just thought I'd come in here just to stir Conne up. I absolutely whooped her ass in a game just then. It wasn't even a match really, just a frag fest :p So cmon Conne, you need to do better than that :D

    I might not be able to make it on Sunday after all. It'll depend on how long my parents are here (bringing up some winter stuff and taking me out to dinner.)

    I'll probably make it, though.

    UD- Cable modems are the best for playing JK! In fact, I always find some sort of cable person to host the games, considering my connection is crappy. Well, it'sfine for games with a couple people, but if we end up with more than like three people playing, it's trouble.

    AW- Lemme try and explain this *again*. I was jumping in and out of the game while chatting with a friend on MSN. I would disapear for whole five minutes at a time. You didn't even notice this fact, but that's why you beat me. I also *hate* NF, especially on the standard levels. Note how the first game of the season *is* half NF on the standard levels, and keep in mind what I do for you. :p

    Ultima- You gotta make it, man! Even if ya come in late, just check this thread or my AIM away msg for the IP. :)

    Sure sure, I've heard it all before. But I never shoot someone that standing around doing nothing. When I kick you ass its because you and me and had a genuine duel and I opened up a can on you. Just face it dude, you suck :p

    I should be able to make it for at least part of it. What'll be first, FF or NF?

    Actually, I don't suck. You try carrying on a thought provoking conversation and a Jk game at the same time. We'll see how well *you* do.

    Oh, and maybe I *was* gonna go easy on your during the FF, but NOW you're toast. ;)

    No guarentees, but I will see if I can join some of those games. My body's been busy with a little 'expansion project' (due to be over about May 18th) and it is taking a lot of my energy away from gaming. If I survive the first three months, I'll see if I can make some game times.

    I just want to challenge that whole worst JK player in the world title, I submit that I alone am worthy. I actually tripped and died on my own saber once. Still trying to figure out if it was a glitch or maybe an easter egg put in for really bad players.

    Alright I will. Next time we play, I'll be sure to distract myself.

    Possible chance for another Hoth/Endor "reinactment?"

    I loved those old games. I'll see if I can make some of these upcoming ones though, but can't play on weekdays with school, so I'm kinda limited.

    Wow Aragorn, sorry 'bout that.

    Well, maybe some weekends we can get together impromptu games like I did last night and you can join those anyway.

    Can you make Sunday's game or are Sunday nights offlimits to you, too? We don't play that late at night.

    The thing is that I can't even host a game due to the fact that I'm networked into the House's main computer. It bites, my friend and I used to play JK all the time.

    We used to have all types of battles or impossible battles like ESB vs ROTJ Luke.

    Or Anakin vs Vader. Hehe we had a lot of fun back in those days.

    Ahh it was fun back in those days.
