Cadet Rules
|
These rules were pulled from a series of postings on the Rapier net.
I quickly acknowledge my lack of responsibility for having created ANY
of these.

| 1) | The person that escalates last, wins. |
| 2) | If you are female and your Don is male, remember one word, "dimples." |
| 3) | Hang around your Don (a lot!) and just smile knowingly. (Hi Mouse :-)) |
| 4) | If caught, blame someone else. This won't get you out of trouble but you will at least have company when you get taken down. |
| 5) | Whenever possible, hang around with people that look guiltier than you. |
| 6) | When in doubt, blame other cadets. |
| 7) | Ask your grand-Don what your Don was like as a cadet. |
| 8) | Keep score with your cadet brothers and sisters on how many times you can make your Don either groan or speechless. Bonus points if your Don looks in the air and screams, "WHY ME!?!" |
| 9) | When your Don asks why you did something, reply that you are following his example of what a cadet should be like. |
| 10) | Just for fun, tell your Don that the Queen is looking for him. |
| 11) | Always maintain plausible deniability |
| 12) | There is no shame in being the one that comes up with the prank and allow others to follow up on it. |
| 13) | Occasionally, look at your Don across the field and smirk. |
| 14) | Cluster together with a bunch of Cadets and whisper (bonus here is that you make a bunch of Dons nervous). |
| 15) | Never, ever, allow yourself to be outnumbered by the Dons... |
| 16) | Tell your Don that his other cadets are up to something and that he should really check up on them. |
| 17) | When your Don asks you to get him a beer, shake it up before giving it to him. |
| 18) | Always run in packs, it gives the enemy someone else to shoot at. |
| 19) | If your Don threatens retribution, inform him "then I will just have to make it worth it, won't I?" |
| 20) | Find your Don's last fried nerve, then tickle it. |
| 21) | When you are on the field against your Don, just before the Marshal calls lay on, put pool chalk on the tip of your blade. |
| 22) | Heckle whenever, however, and with whomever, at a moments notice. |
