[QUOTE="Darkness, post: 42288, member: 13"] Thanks, Wicht; I just came here to point out that the fight was over before was done with learning the style and so this shouldn't be held against the dojo. Also, in retrospect, the whole affair was obviously confusing for Darkwolf, and so I'd say that he should be able to think about this, and then join the dojo (or another) if he wants to, or don't join a dojo - whatever he likes best. See, I didn't want to force him to join a dojo, but as Vanor pointed out in the very first post of this thread, signature styles are very confusing. Also, my original intent in asking for his dojo style was the distinction between becoming a Yellow Belt before or after there were any Green Belts. But his answer, or rather the question, "Do I just pick one?" led me to summarize how dojo styles are picked. From there, the misunderstandings only grew in scope. :( I thought that how to pick up a dojo style was the only thing he was confused about, but I really should have known better than to assume that [i]anything[/i] was clear as far as dojo styles being concerned: I was quite confused by them myself before asking other judges and fighters how they were supposed to work. So it's only understandable that I'm not the only one; check the description of dojo styles in either FAQ - they are not exactly complete. [/QUOTE]
