Ah, if only there were exams on how to build a super combatant, or essays on the fall of Ermor.

Re: Yarnspinners.dm
I think my exams went well; not a good feeling in my case, but I guess it's too late to worry now. In Alneyanese, flunking not poorly would be getting a grade good enough to pass, but not amazing either (the equivalent of a C, I think)... not technically flunking, of course.
At long last, my turn 0 yarn has been published. I hope my future yarns will go a bit quicker. There is a catch however: I cannot seem to put my yarn on my Pangaea page. But I should figure out how it is supposed to work. I hope. Looks like it was only the dreaded "you are browsing your cache" error, and everything seems to be working fine.

Re: Yarnspinners.dm
Ah, the typical over-achiever! That's what you get for never actually failing a class...
Why dontcha put a link to the wiki in the first post? Just for convenience's sake.

Re: Yarnspinners.dm
Well, I actually have an incentive for doing well in exams this time, so it should solve the opposition between "not good enough" and "as if I cared". That, and I really have no excuse if I don't do well in English.
Putting a link in the first post would be too easy Jurri. We are supposed to be in a bureaucracy, and people should have to work to get something. Nay, I will add a link in the first post: though I didn't come up with this idea, it is a good one.  Can you say "inflated ego"?

Re: Yarnspinners.dm
What incentive is that? Someone paying you cash or something?
Speaking of the first post, wouldn't it make sense to replace the hypotheticals with definites? For posterity's sake... And if we are in a bureaucracy I want to be the stamp-guy! You know, the one who does nothing but stamps his approval on everything and is always away eating lunch.

Re: Yarnspinners.dm
Well, the incentive is a bit complicated: let's just say it involves having an easier time getting abroad. I don't have anything against cash though.
It wouldn't make sense to make the first post any clearer. Done; I had planned on tidying the first post all along, but I pushed that to tomorrow, and then to the following day, and... You know how it is.
You cannot be the stamp guy, unless you have the proper credits. *Winks*
