1. As a Radiant Knight, you are a representative of the honor of the Order. When situations of conflict arise, they shall immediately be dealt with calmly and honorably, the path of anger leads to the dark side.

2. When an opponent's saber is lowered, he or she is at peace, and may therefore not be attacked. In effect, all jedi shall allow peaceful jedi to return to correct dueling position unhindered.

3. Please refrain from profanity and vulgarity while participating in RK events, as it is both distracting and offensive to the participants.

4. In Capture the Flag matches, rounds must be fought in full, to the death before health is gathered by either side. Once the round is complete, the winner may leave to recover until challenged again.

II. Membership

IV. Communications

1. All members of the Order are required to currently have or download AOL Instant Messenger, the primary means of communication of the Order. In turn, all members are given a proper identification suited to the system of the order to be known only to those within the Order.

4. All members are required to be present when scheduled. If you can not attend please e-mail all members of the order ahead of time. Three or more unexcused absences will result in notification, on the fourth offense a reprimand will be issued. Your schedule is modifiable at any time.

5. When a formal challenge is issued, it must be accepted, and only if necessary, rescheduled. You may not decline a challenge outright. Decline of a challenge will result in reprimand!!!

_{V. Ranking}

1. Every member shall have an equal voice, regardless of rank.

2. There shall be ranks within the order not to induce competition but to assist in identification and match placement, and with each rank is assigned an experience point value:

4th Circle Master (9)
3rd Circle Master (8)
2nd Circle Master (7)
1st Circle Master (6)
Expert (5)
Craftsman (4)
Journeyman (3)
Novice (2)
Initiate (1)

3. Each player shall be awarded experience points based on points earned in duels. Experience point values are calculated by dividing the opponent's level value by his/her own level value, then multiplying this number times the number of kills made by that player during the duel.
   -->For Example: The score between a journeyman/novice duel is 12-9. The journeyman earns (2/3)(12)=8 points, as the novice earns (3/2)(9)=13.5 points. The novice earns more experience as his/her 9 kills on the journeyman were far more difficult than were the 12 kills on the novice by the journeyman.

4. Team captains of Capture the Flag (CTF) matches are determined by senior status in the Order, not by skill rank.

VI. Games

1. The duel is a one on one, head to head challenge or exhibition between two jedi. Duration is twenty (20) minutes.

2. The rotating duel is a 3 player "king of the mountain" match where the two players left standing after each kill enter combat. Duration is thirty (30) minutes.

3. The Free For All (FFA) tournament is a deathmatch between 3 to 12 players, all of which are always involved, and may attack any target, at any time. Duration is forty (40) minutes for 3-4 players, plus five (5) minutes per added player.

4. The Team Capture the Flag (CTF) tournament is a cooperative match between two teams of players. Duration is forty (40) minutes for 3-5 members, fifty (50) minutes for 6-7 members, and sixty (60) minutes for 8+ members.

5. Phase-6 (P6): In Phase-6, the object of the game is to score 6 hits off your opponent(s) before being killed. When a hit has been made on an opponent, the player must advance his/her lightsaber color by 1 to notify the other players that a hit has been made. Failure to advance before re-attacking renders the hit nil. When all 6 colors have been cycled through, signaling that 6 hits have been made, the player received a point and all players return to full health and the base saber color. Phase-6 is a moderately paced game of defense and endurance, testing the intelligence of the shrewdest jedi. Requirements: Patch Commander, Glowblades 1.2 patch

6. Spork: In Spork, the object of the game is to kill your opponent(s) while resisting being killed by your opponents. Performance is evaluated by a kills to deaths ratio, which makes it as important to stay alive as it is to kill your rivals! Spork is a fast paced game in emulation of the Old Republic style of lightsaber combat. It is the ultimate test of strength and agility for advanced players. Requirements: Patch Commander, Spork (TM) patch.
