What do you want to see?: One of the many things IQ and RG have pride in is their dueling capabilities. They want to boast their proficiencies in lightsaber combat and they want to have bragging rights when being the best in the art of lightsaber combat. This system will not only allow more competition within Inquistorious branches, but also allow people to acknowledge the best duelist on the server. Here is how this system will work: - Every week at a specific date and time, IQ Command will host a dueling tournament to determine the duelist of the week - The person who wins the duelist of the week tournament will hold the title of "Duelist of the Week" and they will receive a special spot on the roster and will receive 1 FREE SITH HOLOCRON from the Holocron registry system - Everyone who partakes in the dueling tournament will switch to Apprentice Job and GM will give them HP 2000 and Armor 200 -If there is already a Duelist of the week, the winner of the dueling tournament will fight the current Duelist of the week to claim the title for themselves Rules and regulations: - You have to be apart of IQ, Purge, or RG to partake in the Dueling Tournament - People can still challenge the Duelist of the Week on their own time with the following conditions: - GM must be present to set HP to 2000 and Armor to 200 - IQ VCDMR+ must witness this duel for it to be valid - Both players must be on the Apprentice job for the duel to be valid - If the Duelist of the week loses the challenge, he will lose the Duelist of the week title and it will be given to the challenger - Duelist of the week MUST accept at least 1 challenge per day to keep their title (If no one challenges the duelist of the week, this rule is voided) - After the 1 challenge, the Duelist of the week doesn't have to accept any more challenges unless the player wishes to accept more challenges - If the Duelist of the Week is on LOA/ROA, the title will be automatically stripped from the player - If the Duelist of the Week is inactive for 3 days or more, the title will be stripped - Holocrons will ONLY be given out after the dueling tournament has concluded - If the Duelist of the Week does not show up to the Dueling tournament, the player voluntarily is stripped of the Duelist of the week title and the title will go to the person who wins the Dueling tournament Why should we add it?: We should add this because it gives more incentive to IQ to improve their dueling skills in lightsaber combat. Usually, I would see lightsaber users use force reflect, lightning strike, or other force powers to fight instead of dueling Jedi. Although using force powers is a viable strategy, it weakens people's ability to conduct lightsaber combat which is one of our many skills to be proficient at in IQ. The Second reason is to add more reasons for people to join Inquistorious branches. Whenever I get on the server and it is Defcon 5, IQ doesn't really have anything to do. Sure, there may be an occasional SIM, but other than that, we either AFK in bunks or duel each other. Instead of dueling each other to appease our boredom, I want to create competition and ambition for people in IQ to strive for. I want players to want to play IQ more and having a duelist-of-the-week system will get that to happen. What are the advantages of having this?: There are a lot of advantages to having this system in place. The first advantage is to give more Holocrons to people. I have noticed that GMs don't give out that many holocrons on off-ship events because it either doesn't fit the narrative of their event or doesn't think it is important to spawning holocrons for Inquistorious. If we have the Duelist of the Week system in place, the utilization of the Holocron registry will become much more apparent and will give people more rewards for becoming better duelists. The second advantage of having this is getting bragging rights. I always love competitions and competitive spirit and believe that the Inquistorious branches will also have competitive spirits. Hypothetically, if the duelist of the week is an RG member, the RG branch will be very happy and IQ and Purge will have the incentive to practice dueling to reclaim their spot as the best dueling branch. This system will create a friendly rivalry between IQ and RG which will spark more people to join Inquistorious and create an exciting environment for people to partake in. Who is it mainly for?: IQ, RG, and Purge - Lord VI Hiroshima

What Is Your In Game Name?: Hiroshima What Is Your SteamID?: STEAM_0:1:67919358 How Long Have You Been In IQ?: 3 weeks Have You Been In Purge, If so, What Rank Were/Are You?: I was a Purge BDS SFC 1 year ago Why Would You Like To Become The Rank Of 2LT/Lord VI?: I would like to become the rank of Lord VI for a couple of reasons. The first reason I want to become the rank of Lord VI is to be able to give out more rewards and commendations to IQ Enlisted and NCOs. One thing I've noticed as an NCO is IQ isn't being fully recognized for its accomplishments on this server. This includes missing out on promotions in events, not receiving Galactic Credit rewards, and not feeling a sense of drive to move up the ranks of IQ. This is not the fault of IQ Lore as they have multiple duties they have to perform, however, I wish to alleviate their responsibilities by becoming Lord VI. I will frequently give out promotions to apprentices who do well in events, regularly conduct simulations for IQ, and overall, give a sense to the IQ enlisted of a command structure to look up to. All I need is a chance to make that happen. The second reason I wish to become a Lord VI is to have my voice heard within the Inquistorius. I have multitudes of ideas when it comes to the IQ branch, but my ideas would never fester if I stayed as a NCO. Me giving ideas to the command teams is kind of like an ST PVT entering Purge Bunks. They try to convince you that you shouldn't kill them for multiple reasons, yet you take it with a grain of salt and still kill them. In order for my ideals to be heard, getting to Lord VI is necessary as my voice will hold some weight in the room instead of a ST PVT waiting to be ignored. I want to give suggestions and ideas to make IQ the best branch on this server, and I need Officer rank in order to make that happen. The third and final reason I wish to become Lord VI is to get further through my ambitious plan to become HCOM. I'll admit that I am aiming for a high rank, but I'm just not the type of person to be satisfied with an officer rank. I'm not the type of person to be stuck at an officer rank and do the minimum amount of work to maintain my rank. I aim to be higher than that and hopefully, I will get Grand Inquisitor at some point in my Gaminglight Career. However, in order for me to achieve this goal, I must prove myself as an officer by working insurmountable hours on the job and showing to the command team that I am willing to work my way up to High Command. I view Lord VI as the way to get me to my goal of HCOM and I wish IQ Command will give me the chance to make it a reality. What Could You Bring To The Inquisitorious Officer Team?: From the previous question, I mentioned that I can give out ideas for the IQ branch. One of the responsibilities of an Officer is to make the branch the most fun and most excited thing for new players on the server, which is why instead of being passive and only conducting minimum amounts of work for the branch, I will become proactive and make the branch better through suggestions and ideas. My first idea is making IQ Assassin an actual sub-branch instead of just a random job. One of the appeals for a branch is to join a sub-branch within the regiment you are joining and the reason behind that is you can get promoted in other ways instead of just normal promotions. For example, for Purge Brawler and Purge Heavy, both sub-branches have a rank structure and a Command team for those sub-branches, and yet, Inquistorious doesn't have an equivalent. I believe IQ Assassin should be made a sub- branch in order for more people to join IQ and to give people the opportunity to rank up in IQ besides normal promotions. This is one of the great ideas I have in mind for the IQ branch and if I become IQ officer, I can make these ideas flourish. The second idea I have in mind is working with RG a lot more in the future. Through my time as NCOs, I've noticed that Royal Guards and IQ never do anything together. Sure, we might have the occasional dueling tournament, but when it comes to Royal Guard Hunting Simulations, missions, or just regular SIMs in general, IQ and Royal Guards don't do anything together. As Lord VI, I will be conducting a lot more cross-battalion SIMs in order to increase the reputation of IQ and to improve branch relations on this server. I will make sure that IQ is a branch that will be invited to partake in SIMs and missions and that is a promise. The third and final idea I have is to be able to have IQ Lore mark people for assassinations on Defcon 5. In the current SOP of IQ Assassins, it states that only IQ HCOM can mark people for assassination which makes sense as only HCOM can order kill orders. However, I still believe it should be lowered to IQ lore characters for a couple of reasons. The first reason is I believe the people in the positions of IQ Lore are trustworthy enough to not abuse this power. My logic is if they were trustworthy enough to get one of the top ranks in the IQ branch as IQ Lore, then they should be trustworthy enough to not abuse marking people for assassination. My second reason for this idea is it will make IQ Assassin a lot more appealing. Currently, there are only 2 people who can actually order a mark for assassination which is the High IQ and the Grand IQ. If those people are not on or AFK on the server, then the job of IQ Assassin is essentially useless. If we have more people that are able to give out marks for assassination, then the job will be a lot more appealing to people and they will play more IQ. The third and final reason is to give more RP to IQ. When it is Defcon 5, there is essentially no RP that IQ can actually do on their jobs. All IQ actually do is either AFK in bunks or duel in bunks but other than that, IQ has nothing to do. So, I propose that enabling the RP of assassinations will give people a reason to get on the IQ job and play. Do You Have Any Previous Officer Experience?: Yes. As of right now, I have currently 8,246 hours on Gmod and 80% of that time is me playing serious RP servers. I have been in multiple leadership positions on multiple Serious RP servers, but I will only focus on this server and my experiences here. Back in December 2020, I was in the lore position of "Tenn Graneet" and I was a Commander in Naval at the time. I was also the Naval Overseer for Havoc (which made me have the power of about Havoc COL at that time). Not only did I have to present leadership to my subordinates in Naval, but I also had to conduct leadership within Havoc as well. Anyone who has a leadership position or had one in the past knows it is extremely difficult to present leadership to your subordinates. You have to have your subordinates respect you, you have to give out orders in tense situations, and you have to discipline your men if they step out of line. Luckily I have a lot of experience when it comes to leadership, so I generally know what I'm doing when I become an officer. However, the biggest thing that people don't tell when you are an officer is you will fail at some point. You are going to mess up an order, give a really harsh punishment when you didn't mean it, let your emotions get the best of you, and among other things. I have failed multiple times when it came to leading men, but I have learned from my past mistakes, so I will never perform those mistakes again when I am an officer. Another notable leadership position that I was on this server was Deputy Squad Lead of Inferno Squadron before it was a sub battalion for Naval. I was also a Deputy Head of Inferno Intelligence while I was in Inferno Squadron so I have pretty accustomed for managing regiments and sub-branches of battalions on Gaminglight Imperial RP. Currently, I am a Shock 2LT and I have plently of experience of dealing with people out of line because I constantly have to deal with STs out of line xD. Anyways, I believe I have the nesscary experience to conduct myself as an officer as I have multiple experiences to my name as an officer.

How much game time do you have on the server? I have 736 hours on the server. Started around 8 months ago. 5. What is the Main Purpose of a commander for a branch? I believe the commander's role in a branch is to lead the other troopers to become the best they can be, and help progress the branch to a place where everyone has fun and enjoys to branch. Commanders should also set an example of seriousness for all troopers to aspire to and should also assist new troopers if they need help with anything. Commanders should help by providing activity's like SIM's, missions, events and trainings to keep activity and interest in the branch. Commanders should keep all the troopers in line and make sure that the troopers are following the rules set on the IQ sop. 6. Why should we trust you to be a commander? : I think I should be trusted as a commander because I am very dedicated to IQ and although I wasn't as active recently I am now back to being active. I love the IQ branch and am dedicated to uphold the rules set before me and make sure that the other troopers are following them too. It is my goal if I were to become the 9th sister to make IQ a better place, I respect the effort that the IQ command team puts in to making IQ better and I believe I would be up to the task and we be a great addition to the team. 7.

1. What is your IGN? (In-Game Name): Overseer Killuabz 2. What Regiment are you applying for? IQ Lore/ Eight Brother 3. Why do you want to be a commander of this branch? I would love to be a commander for this branch for many reasons to begin. I would love to help all the other amazing command members in leading the battalion, Doing roll calls, Updating the rosters, etc. Next, I have been in IQ since my first day on the server and ever since my first day I had always wanted to be a VCMDR/IQ Lore and have climbed up the ranks hoping to one day be in that position and I was lucky to have an amazing command team to lead and mentor me through my whole career and I would love to give that same experience I had to all the other Enlisted, NCOs, and Officers and hope they will follow in my footsteps and hopefully become a commander one day. Third, I want this battalion to bring in more and players and be the most active battalion on the server I would love to achieve this by hosting more SIMs and Training such as Lore sessions and missions for all of the troopers in the battalion not only to keep people in the battalion but to also draw new people into the battalion. Lastly, I would like to be a commander of IQ because I love interacting with everybody in IQ and purge abs would love to able to help them even more than I have as an officer I was also very impressed with how organized and great the leaders are right now and I would just love to be a part of the fine command team we have. 4. How much game time do you have on the server? I currently have over 700 hours mostly all into IQ and purge https://www.battlemetrics.com/players/978865414 5. What is the Main Purpose of a commander for a branch? The main purpose of a commander for a branch is to be a leader, and a role model to everyone in the battalion and to keep the battalion in check and make sure everyone in the battalion is doing what they are supposed to be and also communicating with the officers and NCOs of the battalion. Also, to assist the other command members in Updating the roster, Handing out punishments, Doing SIMs and Training, and also keeping the battalion up and running by frequently updating the SOPs and training documents. Lastly, I believe the main purpose of a commander for a branch is to interact with all the lower ranks of the battalion whether that be having a friendly conversation I believe even the smallest good interaction can inspire them to rise up the ranks and become a great player and person. 6. Why should we trust you to be a commander? : I believe I should be trusted with commander for several reasons first I have been in Purge and IQ for a very long time more specifically I joined around the end of march and have had time to learn about how the battalion works and all the rules of the battalion and I have also learned how to be a leader. Next, I am very approachable and trusted by my fellow troopers, command and other battalions and if you ask any of them I believe they will say that I am very trustworthy and understanding. I also know the rules of the server very well as I am a senior-moderator on the staff team and am also a gamemaster as well. My next reason is, I was also a part of the officer team and reached the rank of SL which is equivalent to CPT for SF before I resigned and have had time to learn from the great leaders over there. Next, I have hosted many trainings for the battalion and I have done everything I can as an officer and I am very professional when I need to be but can also be very understanding and fun. 7. How often can you be Online? : I can be on for at least 5 hours a day although I Would like to note this could change due to school beginning soon 8. Do you have any Warnings? (What for?) : Nope
