If you are missing members, this can effect game play for this exam.

Your posting time is unlimited. This is a race exam so posting is crucial here.

You are about to be given your first obstacle once everyone finishes posting.

The rules are as follows:

Each squad, please appoint a leader now. I have five groups to manage and quiet a few NPCs, so to help me out because I cannot read everybody's posts, your leader will be the one responsible to vouch for your squad when you have completed your obstacle.

If your leader fails to speak up, it could possibly cost you and your team the victory of advancing so be wise as to who you choose.

There will be 10 obstacles within this exam. Once you and your squad have managed to pass the said obstacle, it is your team leader's job to post a private line in their post and specially say "Squad [Fire, Water, Earth, Lightning, or Wind] is ready."

I will be keeping track of how many times your team leader checks in. They must check in 10 times.

The winner will be announced when they cross in here.

Your posting time is unlimited so this will take as long as you all like. I'm doing this because some have had emergencies and some have been absent so to work around this, I am granting this, but that does not mean there will be no winner or loser because there is.

Once your leader has been chosen, please put it in your post in a private line to me.

Good luck!

Roll call is now closed. You all be seeing your first obstacle in five minutes!

Let me make this as clear as possible so nobody gets offended or butt hurt or even goes crying about it later.

I am a GM. Yes. It actually is a tough job sometimes trying to please every single person in a game, especially having to work around some people to get these things going.

Running a game is not as simple as it may seem, especially when you envision a game to be active and not stall on certain things for large amounts of time. Running a game takes patience and it can get stressful from time to time.

I put time caps on certain events because it helps move things along and so the game doesn't die down. When the holidays hit back in November, the game had almost completely died and I actually considered shutting it down. When January hit, I decided not to and just moved it along by granting everybody to do the Chunin Exams, to spice things up again.

It has occurred to me that not everybody is happy checking-in and being forced to hurry up. That's not what I am doing here. I promise.

I put time caps in hopes of moving the events along, because what fun is it that everybody has to wait on certain people just to move things forward? Sometimes, people disappear and never come back or others drop out because their group is incapable of posting constantly. What if I never granted the Chunin Exams? You all would still be slowly getting your training done.

I try to move everybody along all at the same time so nobody gets left behind because what fun is it if your group is the one that's the slowest and cannot join the action like everybody else?

To make things fair, again I state, this is not a timed event. I just didn't want to be stuck on this exam 2 for so long, but it looks like we will. So your posting can be frequent or it can be slow. Your choice.

---

So rules are as follows for exam 2:

A roll call will not be placed anymore for any of these exams. You either post or you don't.

You are not forced or pressured to hurry along. Take your time. Be creative. Race or not, take your time. There is no hurry here.

I will intervene once I see the private line. If I don't see one, then I won't know and you can't move forward.

Your creativity is welcomed always. Describe, detail, and post. I will give you your results.

Thank you for your time.

PS: In regards to Sumi Eiko's removal. He simply had a problem with me since the beginning. He had been giving me trouble almost the whole time he had been in the game. He misunderstood my words many times and took things far too serious. He didn't like the way the game was ran and he felt his creativity was always being shot down, which is not true at all. I always welcome creativity. I apologize for Earth having yet another squad mate gone, but his character has been placed into NPC form, so I will be portraying his char. to get you through these exams. If he was the leader of your squad, change leaders now please.

Just doing a quick game roll call to see if people in general are still around in this game.

I am here! :)
