Evaluator:
For the first analysis we will look into the enhancements of the martial arts. In my studies of "redpills," I have learned that this is commonly tested by way of elimination in a series of duels between two individuals. In fact, these tournaments occur quite frequently. I'll be especially interested in evaluating the reigning champion redpills in those tournaments, should they choose to participate.
The exercise for this first study will follow the elimination style of those previous competitions. The first day, we'll have a maximum of 10 duels, which will allow a maximum of 20 volunteer subjects. Once this is complete, the evaluations will be scheduled for other times and other days, until each volunteer subject has had an opportunity to compete in the first round. Those who earn a victory over their opponent will of course, move to the second round, which will consist of all the other subjects who were victorious in the first round. Those not victorious will have reached the end of this first exercise. This will continue until there are two subjects remaining, and finally, those two will compete against each other to determine a victor.
The subjects will be placed in a scoring category upon completion of the exercise, which will be organized according to the number of total victories. The top ten subjects will receive a score measured in points, which will appear as follows:
1st - 1200 points
2nd - 1000 points
3rd - 900 points
4th - 800 points
5th - 700 points
6th - 600 points
7th - 500 points
8th - 400 points
9th - 300 points
10th - 200 points
I have also considered granting 75 points to subjects below the 10th spot, which would mean that all participants receive at least some amount of points for volunteering for this specific exercise.
Now then, as it's been explained to me, there are certain general rules followed during the competitions that this evaluation follows the style of, in order to keep things on a relatively level field. One of these rules was that the usage of performance enhancing pills or booster injections was not allowed. Another was that the redpill RSI must be reloaded into the simulation just before competing. As I understand it, this can be done through a termination of the RSI by way of damaged inflicted by another RSI through a duel scenario, or by jacking the RSI out of the Matrix entirely, and then re-entering. It's likely that a volunteer assistant may be necessary to reload RSI's during these studies. Of course, the most important restriction is to note that this is an evaluation of the martial arts programs for the time being, which means that other programs outside of the martial arts area will not be used for this analysis.
The first 10 duels will take place this Saturday, the 26th, at approximately 12:00 P.M. If you would like to be a subject in this first day of examination, please respond here with your name in the Matrix. As I understand it, this network allows the use of an alternate identification other than the name you go by, so this will be necessary. Only one subject per Data Node One identification, please, for any redpills who may be sharing access. We'll take the volunteer subjects in the order that they volunteer; remember there is a maximum of twenty for this first day. There will be a future announcement for other days if necessary until all willing volunteers have a chance to participate in the first round.
Any questions or comments are welcome here as well, in addition to volunteering for the 26th, at 12:00 P.M. I look forward to opening this study.
