[SLA][Fellowships] ANDROMEDA
What is going on

First challenge is out. Because it does not interfere with the other fellowships I post it here:

Quote:

Challenge 1: Code Blue



Exceptional students attending an exceptional school and now you face your first exceptional challenge.

Traditional students have discovered over the years the bond that is developed by working together with their fellowship brothers and sisters. These are the bonds that hold the Awlyn together as we live alongside humans, hiding our true identities. This will be the first time many of you have participated in the fellowship program as we have not been able to offer this to distance learning students in the past.

Since we have yet to establish a student council to plan and organize challenges I have shuffled through some of our older challenges and picked some for the next few weeks. This week: Code Blue.


Code Blue Rules:

1. Students must be seen wearing blue in some form or fashion
2. Students may post their pictures anywhere on the internet and link to it in response to this thread
3. Students will be rewarded for originality, humor, and difficulty. (to be determined by faculty)
4. Students must post their links by 5pm Central Daylight Time Sunday the 28th of September 2008.
5. Students may post multiple times with their last link being the only one to count.
6. Students may provide links to video and/or images
7. Students must not make their identity as an awlyn apparent. Those of you who can physically change into another form may do so, but you may not perform this transformation on any publicly available sites. Those of you who are werewolves and your monthly cycle has begun you may upload to the school forum.
8. Students MAY include the name of the school or fellowship in their image or video.


Code Blue Points:
-Fellowship will be awarded 1 point for each picture of member seen wearing blue
-Fellowship will be awarded 2 points for each video of member seen wearing blue
-Fellowship will be awarded 1 point for name of fellowship in video or image
-Fellowship will be awarded 2 points for name of the school in video or image
-Fellowship will gain 2 additional points for each member rewarded for originality or humor
-Fellowship will gain 3 additional points for each member rewarded for difficulty
-Fellowship will gain 10 additional points for most original, humorous, or difficult of all fellowships

Note: The name of the school and/or fellowship is to allow alumni the opportunity to enjoy the work of our students. The school's website has been designed to prevent human intruders from mistakenly finding their way into the school or finding information about the Awlyn from the portions of the site they can access.


Fellowship Points:

At the end of each week the fellowship with the most challenge points will be awarded 2 fellowship points. 1 fellowship point will be awarded to the second place fellowship and none to the final fellowship. Challenge points will reset to 0 when the next challenge begins.

The challenge has now officially begun, please contact the designated faculty member for clarification of any rules if needed.


Yes, things start to become funny...

[UPDATE] Seems Andromeda is a winner team:

Prof. Marikikov wrote:

Andromeda has won the Fellowship championship each of the last 10 years, 15 of the last 20 years. We will continue this domination of the other fellowships here!


History is on our side. Let the games begin!

Looks like this challenge is the same for all three fellowships, as I'm in Cygnus and I got the same challenge.

[META] Also, just to clear something up, this was posted on aporia: http://news.aporiacme.com/2008/09/21/dont-worry-youre-not-too-old/

Quote:
With SLA's first fellowship challenge underway we wanted to address one quick issue: You're not too old! Teacher's aren't going to be paying attention to the age of the individuals in the images/videos - so go out and have fun! (same applies to the yearbook once we start collecting player images)


So fire away, I already have my pic lined up to win Twisted Evil[/META]

[EDIT] ah crap, just realized that the bonus points are for the name of the school, not the seal... maybe DeGrance will let it slide...

Wanted to let Andromeda know I feel bad for not helping get points in the last challenge. I had my picture done and my internet was down all weekend and I could not post. I will try to do better next time and post earlier. I think this time I might post earlier than do another one since we can post more than once.

But as I understood, only the latest uploaded contribution will be counted.

Prof. Marikov reacted regarding the second challenge:

Prof. Marikov wrote:

I'm going to reiterate my objections to this openly this time.

Dr. DeGrance you seem to be stuck on the whole concept that Humans are nice and decent people. I understand you've been around a bit longer than I have, but apparently you haven't learned anything about them. You may think you're seeing changes, but the changes you are seeing aren't related to the fear that humans have shown toward Awlyn!

The students seem to share my objections since they have yet to participate in this challenge. I'm glad they can see humans for what they are!


Unfortunately I really have no time to make a video for this challenge. But it seems other poeple also have no time.

[META] Seems like this is another try of the PMs to get people to participate.[/META]

From Andromeda forum:
DeGrange wrote:

Due to limited participation last week we are going to extend this challenge until midnight next Sunday to ensure that all of our distance learning students have the opportunity to participate.

Third in a row Wink

but it seems no one is really interested in these challenges (at least no Andromeda members).

I know a lot of interesting things are going on, but come on ... posting an image with some text can't be so hard.

Else the PMs have to extend the Deadline forever Smile
