Dragoncat Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 Good idea! First will be a general knowledge quiz thing to see how much they already know, and then maybe...tutor pairs? The more knowledgeable/experienced ones with one who's not so much. There is enough for three pairs unless Voidlord decides to post...

Snowy_One Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 I was thinking more of 'combat' pairs. Like, maybe, give everyone a 'lance' with a painted tip and they have to fly around and tag another flyer. Whoever they tag becomes their partner but they only get one shot. So if you get tagged you're partnered with the person who tagged you and vice-versa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragoncat Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 (edited) Oh okay. That might be something for later on. I've written an introductory quiz. So hard to find flight terms that aren't about airplanes...will post after Almi does. Edited April 24, 2015 by Dragoncat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flamy Posted April 26, 2015 Author Share Posted April 26, 2015 Wait... if we're trainees becoming Wyvern Riders/Pegasus Knights... Does that make us Probation Fliers? 8D Or... what's the term used in Tellius? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowy_One Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Maybe I'm used to seeing problems written out differently, but is '8+6(10/2)-4' '8+6+(10/2)-4' or '8+6X(10/2)-4' or something else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vestige Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 I'm 99% sure it's multiplication (the second expression you provided). Parenthesis indicate multiplication, anyhow. '6(x)' indicates to distribute the '6' to the 'x' via multiplication. And if you substitute the 'x' for an expression, in this case, '(10/2)' you can apply the same principle.

scorri Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 '8+6(10/2)-4' = 8+6*(10/2)-4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragoncat Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 (edited) Don't feel bad, I suck at math too xD I'm giggling a bit at Vyse's answers. He seems like the type who would just circle X and write "there it is" on an algebra problem...or if the question is "I have 5 bottles in one hand and 6 in the other, what do I have?" "A drinking problem". Lol. Oh and btw, the languages are known as old tongue(heronese/ancient language) and new tongue. Pretty sure they don't call it english. Also, spoiler the quiz please.

Raguna Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 (edited) Hahah, yep he's a bit of a joker. I'll edit the language thing now. Edited April 26, 2015 by almi23 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragoncat Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Hopefully I'll get around to this tomorrowish. Wednesdays, I have off of work, except for a meeting at 10. So yeah. In the meantime...if anyone has any ideas say so. What do you want to happen after the quiz? Should they go straight to the arena to practice flying and stuff or something else?

Raguna Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 I think we should do Snowy's idea and divide people up in colored teams. We get three lives each meaning we can only get hit three before were out. Dibs on the orange team! Or we get attacked by bandits out in the field when we land in a far away training ground or we need to help a village being attacked by bandits. Possibilities are endless.

Snowy_One Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Erm, what I am suggesting doesn't work with 'lives' since it's simply who you tag first/get tagged by. Also best if it's not decided OOC who gets paired up with who. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raguna Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 I think I used your idea as a basis and put the three lives but I meant like three blotches of paint meant that you were out. We could also try a capture the flag type scenario where someone has a flag and we need to obtain it before a time limit. I'd rather let Dragoncat choose the teams IC, I just want to have an orange coloring on my team if possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flamy Posted April 29, 2015 Author Share Posted April 29, 2015 As for you, Chigai, there's no problem being the Ace. Just make sure you know the limitations of being an Ace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragoncat Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 I'm digging that bandit idea... Also, yay for orange! My favorite color. Cerai would have to be on that team, Blaze matches already xD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chigai Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 I guess the bandit idea is cool and all, but... Er... I'm a bit of a wimp. Can we do some sort of casual mode-like thing, if we implement bandits? Sorry if it's a burden. ;w; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raguna Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 Well no one is trained to kill and to my knowledge no one but Vyse has killed someone. If we implement bandits we'd have to run away from them or distract them until the stuffy Begnion nobles decide to take care of it with a nearby patrol detachment.
