I understand the concept of it now. But I've never seen one on a forum before.

Bleh, the rest of them are okay, but do we really have to start with Youngling? I hate that term. It made me laugh at the deaths of children, and that just ain't right!

Not that that is going to stop you from dreaming… Only in this case, Gaffer is actually a guy.

We could say "Single Midichlorian" instead.

Eh, ooh, uh... Okay, I give up. But, um, I do agree with the original purpose of this thread to put something in between "Trials" and "Jedi Knight." So there!

There is nothing between the Trials and Knighthood in Jedi Lore. Perhaps we should just add Youngling as 0-250 and make Padawan 250 to say... 1500. Then "Ready for the Trials" until 3000 where we remain Jedi Knights.

I sort of think "ready for the trials" is unnecessary, I think it should be from Padawan straight to Knight.

Well, if you want to get technical, is "Ready for the Trials" really a status in the first place? I mean, if you're ready for the trials, you're still a padawan who's just... ready for the trials until he completes the trials and becomes a Jedi Knight. I guess what Klingon was getting at (and if not, I suppose I'm going to) is that there could be more specific trial levels.

Well, damn, Sessler pretty much said what I did but with less words.

Not that I don't agree with having a "Ready for the Trials" status because, hey, moving away from Padawan isn't a bad thing.

Well, I'm willing to just say you were opening for me.
