Aryte Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 It was mentioned several weeks ago that a routine handbook examination will be conducted-- well, here is the first one! These exams will work like so:- To complete an exam, you must copy the form below into a PM and send it to me here on the forums. Do not delete the questions. Put the subject header of the exam as [Your name] - Exam A.1.- To pass an exam, you must score an 80%.- You will be notified in PM if you passed or failed. If you fail, you'll lose eligibility for promotion for a cycle and will be forced to redo the exam. Failure multiple times on the same exam results in ineligibility until a new exam is posted.- It is /not/ mandatory for enlisted personnel to take the exam, however, failure to submit a completed exam will result in an inability to promote. For example, if Discens Bob does not turn in an exam prior to a promotion cycle . . even if someone recommends him for promotion, he will not be considered. - Officers must complete the examination within two weeks of publishing, without exception.- For promotion cycles, this will begin as of February 1st. As in, you don't have to worry about it for this week's promotion cycle.- Exams will change every so often; if you send me an old exam on accident, you'll be laughed at. No worries, you will be notified pretty blatantly. As in, this topic will have big bold red text that says "DON'T USE ME." - Intervals between exam changing will be random. Keeps you on your toes!- I encourage everyone to participate! It is good practice.>>> The Ordo Imperialis>>> Handbook Depth Examination>>> Form A.I[1] The rank title “discens” refers to what denotation? E_?[2] What is the minimum wait time for eligibility for a promotion from E-7 to W-1?

Which regulation is this answer found within?[19] Let’s assume you’re an Ordo officer; O-2. You log in to Titan and realize no one else on map currently exceeds your rank. You intend to be around for a while. What is the correct process to assume OIC?[20] What regulation deals with the authority of the Frumentarii? What does that article state?

Agares Tretiak Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 You mentioned officers, sir. I will assume Praetorians though not really officers, fall under this category as well, of mandatory submission of these tests? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Euro Zapatero Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 (edited) Question, sir!Even though this is applied once it hits Feb. 1, can one still turn it in before it goes into action, even though it won't affect this week's promotion cycle?

Aryte Posted January 31, 2009 Author Share Posted January 31, 2009 List of current exams I received. All of which have PASSED. Most common error: the off duty question. Read it closely!Secondly, be sure to answer the WHOLE question.
