    Default Announcement

    Okay, given the status of GED right now being busy and inactive, and myself being similarly preoccupied, I don't feel it's fair to the students to keep prolonging the class indefinitely. So here's what I'm going to do. Every student that has completed Lesson 3 will be credited with completion of the course. If you turn in an assignment for Lesson 4 you'll be given some rep on the side, the same goes for Lesson 5 in the future. The classroom hall will remain open for some time until the last lesson is posted and submissions are handled, so you can still qualify for completion of the course by completing the first three lessons until such time as we're ready to close shop and archive it.

    Credited with Completion

    (If your name is not on this list and you submitted Lesson 3, please PM me with a link to your submission or post in this thread.)

    Anyways thanks for the announcement i was a bit worried !!

    Edited:
    @AL, GED
    Don´t i get some sort of reward for being the only one in the Forum that has 4 Courses finished? some extra rep wouldn´t hurt

    GED has been handling the lessons, and I generally comment on them. He wanted to do something with Kingdoms for the 5th lesson, I recall talking on MSN about it. So as of right now it's up to him.

    That will be assessed later, as an admin he can give arbitrary-value rep, and lessons 4-5 will probably be worth at least a couple rep each rather than just 1, and I'm not to keen on adding it manually/artificially since it doesn't tie it to a post.

    He means for Full courses , not lessons For example :

    Mapping Basics
    Introduction to mesh texturing
    Basics with GIMP
    Scripting

    I don't think anyone has that, I was referring to the Lessons actually. (though I believe Icedie has completed 4 courses in the Uni making him currently the most traveled)

    @Kingtheoden1
    Thanks for clearing that up, and yes i have

    • Introduction to Mesh Texturing 101
    • GIMP Basics
    • Modding Basics
    • Scripting 101

    and if they open an animation class i am willing to learn!!

    But i have to repeat what i said before, i did this totally knowing that i wont get anything out of it, its totally up to GED/AL to decide what happen.

    it might be a good time to request a new diploma in the Curia, what do you think Citizens?

    Most medals come in threes, the Degree is no exception, and it suits the fact that everything caps at a certain point, so I see no reason to add any further to it. We could increase the courses required to achieve each one, but that would be contingent on an active University regimen which is not the case.

    AL made the right decision on this. I was actually back in the hospital trying to get my blood pressure under control as a result of complications from the pericarditis.

    I have a lot to catch up on as I was out almost another week, but I will try and get everyone some rep and get the bonus lesson posted this weekend.

    Sincere apologies to everyone for the screwed up classroom this time around.
