Andrew's Training Log

Why I joined the School: The School of War's first impression was a higher power waste-no-time community. Especially with its glorious leader, RedDawn, seemingly permanently petrified in an amatease in perfect bliss and firm superiority. Years later I found myself cocking my head about how many people still played this game and remembered the existence of the School of War and was surprised at its persistence. Connecting to this server I saw everything was proceeding as normal. Students were training on the poles and RedDawn was actually sitting this time (amazing!). Seto, who proved just as welcoming as the rest of them, introduced me to the Ventrilo server where I actually managed to delve deeper into the community and energized by the true nature and the obvious bond between its members longed for it myself.

I struggle with acceptance and am quick to anger. Thinking about the School of War and the principles its students hold dear helps me, as well as the staring contest between Seto and Yami.

The Intelligent Design movement. Christianity.

If you could get a message across to a large group of people.
