[?] About Dishonored Dojos

Because there are so few Dojos on this world, I was wondering if there was any support for moving the 'honored-dishonored' rule over a notch. My only character with a Dojo, Sanctus Togashi, manages to always be one point under the minimum requirement to keep his dojo open, and this makes it very tough for me to award the stash of yen that's accumulated into the dojo. I understand why honored-dishonored dojo's are listed, and I feel that that aspect is important, but I was wondering if a buffer would be Ok'd?

My proposal is that a dishonored dojo can accept new students until it's 'score' drops below the rank of the dojo's creator. For instance, Darkwolf's dojo would need to be -7 to really be dishonored, and Sanctus' (my) dojo would need to be -3. The reason why I'd like this (and this applies to Yakuza as well, of course), is because of the lack of dojos.

See, I just won 2 more yen while in my latest match with Rathan, and my Masters yen total has finally reached 9, which is plenty enough to make a yellow belt turned green very happy, but I can't manage to win enough to get ahead of my losses for more than a week.

Not that many people are actually looking for dojos, but it would be nice considering how hard they are to keep open for a new-dojo like my characters.

I'm afraid that most YB rules changes are on Hold while we decide who's the next Grandmaster Judge.

The problem that I have with this is that to me a green belt starting with a -3 buffer makes no sense since its the first tier you can open a dojo. And starting at 0 at Green and then working down makes such a minor difference as to be unnoticeable.Also it makes the Keeper of Records life more difficult since he needs to cross reference two or three threads to do Dojo Standings in the rankings. (Masters Current Rank, Dojo's Wins vs Loss's in the Gangs/Dojos thread and then you have to go to the ACTUAL indivual Gang/Dojo threads to make sure everything in the Dojo/Gangs thread is correct (which it oh so rarely is).
