sorry for the :actually:

but you may want to consider going through the process of blueing the wok I.E. building up a layer of black oxide. the process is simple enough, just heating each section of a bare wok until it gradually turns a roughly dark aqua blue, THEN you would apply the oil for the traditional seasoning. this makes the wok more resistant to rust and allegedly gives it a superior non stick surface that's easier to season. it's standard procedure in any restaurant kitchen and kenji recommends it.
if you don't feel like going to the trouble the wok will do just fine without it I'm sure.
