Probably a question for the Consortium, as I don't know anyone else who runs single arena teams long enough for these. But I'm working on round robin #4 for the Center for Olds, as I've graduated at least three of every style from the team. Anyone else even try for round robins?

Realize that Suave is referring to graduating all 10 styles from a SINGLE TEAM.
My only goals surrounding this type of achievement are as follows:
From DM 18:
- 2nd round robin from Shepherds (need PR & STK)
- 3rd round robin including my original DM 18 team (need PS in addition to above)
Across all my teams:
- 5 of each style graduated total. (need 3 PS, 2 PL, 2 PR, and 1 each of AB, STK, SL)

Don't really "try" for this, but have as follows:
Now 5 "robins" from all teams (need more PL's and PS's
Have two arenas with 2 robins each.
No real desire for more; most focused on the 1000 grads.

I would be down with it. How do you do it exactly? Do you have a starting date? Do you start with rookies or just any basic class?

Doesn't matter when. It is basically graduating one of each of the ten styles. (In this case, from one specific arena.)

There are two types of round robins, in a way.
1. Just graduating all 10 styles. I have done this once, and am just waiting on basher #2 for the second. #3 will be right behind. Yes, I actually do think about this and do try to make warriors of all styles to accomodate it.
2. All styles from one team. I haven't actually succeeded yet as my aimers keep getting killed on one team (21) and the other (7) just never seems to get good aimer roll-ups.
I do know of others (Stik, for example) that has focused on (or at least paid attention to) this.
**Just got basher #2 from Shadowspire. So graduate #40 gives me at least 2 of every style, but certainly not all from one team. Yet. Soon.

It's on the list. I believe a BA (maybe a PS) from DM 40 to complete my first set. This thread reminded me that I should start bagging one of each in that arena now.
I have multiple sets of the "one of each style" across different arenas thing.
I have to double check, but I might have the "one of each from the same arena on ten different teams" thing in DM 82!!!

I am still working on my first 10 alltogether. I am about to have #6&7 as long as the smurfs survive the next few turns. Right now I have 2 WS, 1 BA, 1 TP and 1 PR.

I've got all ten from all teams, but only nine from a single team. Still need an AB in Kaltos, and I've started up my team there to try to get it done. It'll be a while since I don't have an AB on the team at the moment.

As largely an arena micro-manager, yeah I work toward it. It's a good, fun goal to work towards with a dedicated arena team.
Got my first one done in Sunset within one team a while back and am 4 styles away (with two of those near graduation and one in the pipe) from my second. I know the plunger will be my problem child there...

Impressive Sauve!
In my two main arenas over the years 3 and 29, Osksi I have 11 graduates and still need an AB,PL and PS and Lapur I have 15 graduates and still need a PL.
In Shadowspire I have graduated 8 and I am halfway there with 5 styles and amazingly PL is one of them.

Very cool Suave! I'm interested and actively pursuing Round Robins (I think I just like the challenge and diversity on the teams). I love winning like everyone else too, but I would have quit this game a long time ago if I just churned out the same styles over and over again from the teams I run regularly.
I have have yet to do it on a team though, I'm two short on my 45 team (PR and BA) with a PR only PPs away from going and no BA even in the pipeline. I'm five deep on my Shadowspire team, still needing AB, BA, PL, PR, and PS.
Seems weird that I haven't done it yet on any team since I've been playing since 1996 (regularly since Oct 2000). Up until Shadowspire opened, I never ran regularly in a fast arena apart from a TOGS and a Zalcon in 74 years ago. So of 55 graduates, only 7 of them are from a fast arena (6 from Shadowspire).
