Alright, even though Grace already had her idea pretty much set to go, I just wanted to hear what everyone else thought about it. If this was posted somewhere else, I didn't see it, so here it is. If you haven't already seen, Grace proposes that we retest every single member every single month.

Personally, I think that's a bit too much, as not only will we be retesting those members, we'll also be testing the new members that join every month. Plus, it makes the buying retests useless. Plus, this idea will be hard to keep track of, because we'll have to keep track of everyone who's tested and everyone who hasn't. Plus some people might join a few days before the retesting starts.. Will this mean they'll have to test again?

With that being said, and anything else I left out, I personally disagree with this idea, and just wanted to hear what everyone else thought of it.

I'll add a poll, so you can post a comment(like/dislike/why/why not) and anything else you want, and please vote in the poll too.

Well, thanks o.o

I dont see the point in this. If people can re-test for the cost of DC, then there is no point in having monthly re-tests because then people will just wait so they can rack up some more DC

Okay, I do agree that every so often, all members should get a mandatory retest. But not every month, maybe... six months or so? ._. And even then I don't think you'd get them all retested, because you might have a crapload more members here. I mean, right now it's not as bad, but if we get up to about... 500+ members, um... >_> How will we retest them all...? But this specific one is okay, just every month... -_-0 Maybe the members themselves should make sure to pay for a retest every month, that might make more sense Very Happy

As for the poll, I voted indecisive. Read the post and you'll get it ._.

ummmm idk its SOUNDS like a good idea but all in all i dont think it will be that successful or atleast that well liked because yeah retesting sounds good but give people the option like u do now to buy a retest some people might not wanna be tested and are happy where they are lol but you could do like have a schedule date for retests every month and everyone who wants one has to pay to get it on that day or a weekend or something idk

Well, Godulon, in this case, taking the retest is a requirement rather than an option. You won't get to choose. Grace says every member needs to be retested.

And I do agree with Kikyo. They should all get retested, but not every month. Every half year sounds good o.o Even though this academy hasn't even been out for that long. I don't think it has anyways. xD

Well, there's a big problem in this that no one pointed out: if every member has to be retested every mount...and there's a specific date...what about pepole who where tested like in day 27 or so? They will take a retest like 4 days after bieng tested.

Also as other members said, too much work for testers, and they won't be able to keep track of the tested members.

I would say every month is a bit much.

I would also say depending on the time frame you have in mind we may need to do something about the Retest for DC.

If it is every month you should get rid of buyable retests all together. they would make no sense and people may find a way to abuse it. As aj6666 said.

My recommendations would be every 3 months have a retest period. That way people who don't want to wait that long can buy one with the DC and people who have a hard time gaining DC aren't shut out.

But overall I do agree that we need to retest people; Preferably AFTER we settle on a more stable testing system. (Make testers decks; have a Testers section; Maybe make a general guide as to how to place)

I don't find it needed that hardly. I mean, just tbh with you guys, the testing is ruined here (and in many other academies.). There shall be testers who are.

1) Ready to test many people.
2) Knows HOW to test.
3) Can choose the right dorm for those tested people.
4) Have patience to make the opponent show what he got.
5) Doesn't care if he loses or wins, it's just a test duel. He's supposed to lose but that's for the cost of the opponent showing what he got.

And some other things of course.

But if you have only like 1-3 testers who are like that in this academy, and you want them to test like 50+ members in 1 month, then it's pretty much ruined.

Also, testing is not everything. There shall also be rules saying that the one who will get tested... Must NOT use a test deck so they don't start crying when losing and getting in a dorm they didn't expect to get in, they wanted to have a dorm higher than the one they are in another academy, etc...

I may have gone out of the main point, so sorry about that.

Anyway, I don't mind the testing each month. Are there testers to do this though?

o.o Didn't notice this. Very Happy

Each month may be a bit much, we can make it every 3-4 months. Smile I'm sure we'll get enough Testers in that amount of time and a better testing system, and members can still pay for re-tests. ^.^

But letting members demote themselves, especially to Slifer, is imo, abusive, because they could be doing it to earn more DC, if they belong in Ra, and they're in Silfer and can beat another Ra easily, what is that, 150 DC for them? I don't think that's fair. Hmm

Yesh. ^.^

Why don't we just use the retesting method where members buy it? I'll help, but I think this idea is stupid.

Not every member can earn DC that quickly. *points to self*

Members can still buy re-tests, since this only happens every few months. ^.^

Err. Sure, I guess we could do this but around 4 months or 5 months as Grace/Kikyo said is a good idea, I guess. But I agree with Tharyan. We have to finalize and fix stuffs first. o.o
