Midterm and stuff by Sadi

As midterm approaches, I thought it's time to bring everyone back up to speed with this and that.

As per the schedule, classes will close on 1st January, and midterm will start on 8th January. Midterm lasts for 2 weeks both IC and RT, so term will resume on 22nd January. This period either gives authors a rest, or time to explore their character in different settings (We have a live journal page where authors can post about activities outside of school).

Before midterm, you must submit points earned in your lessons. House points are awarded at the discretion of the professor, but we do have some guidelines. For each initial post (the first post a character does in your lesson thread) award on a 1-5 scale; if the post is average, meets all posting rules but doesn't stand out, you might award 3 points. If it's particularly lengthy and creative you might award 4 points, but if there are plenty of spelling mistakes or it falls short of the minimum length requirement you might only award 2 points. Then for each subsequent post, you would usually award one more point per post.

Working example: Student 1 posts (3 points), Student 2 replies (3 points), Student 1 replies (1 point), Student 3 enters (4 points), Student 2 replies (1 point) etc.

Enter your points in the 'edit points' page. Please have all points enetered by 5th January if possible. Thanks.

Any questions, you know where to send them.
