Legate of Mineta Posted August 26, 2012 Report Share Posted August 26, 2012 It's very thick; in a few places it is almost two miles across! Entire armies used to be garrisoned at the Wall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schwarzbart Posted August 26, 2012 Report Share Posted August 26, 2012 freespace if they still would be there then one could expect Help arifing very fast when a dragon show up at the wall. But in the Vernin Adventure its just you and a Prof. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schwarzbart Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 About the answear you given her: http://academagia.invisionzone.com/index.php?showtopic=2348&st=0 Do I understand it correct that even 1 step Adventures of year 1 can have a interesting follow up Adventure in a later year?

Leoshi Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 One important question! What are those different grading styles for the classes? Distribution. Hybrid Curve. I understand Pass / Not Pass but what about the rest? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian Posted August 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 Basically you assign each student's examination a value, the better the examination went for the student the higher the score. However the actual grade the students get are distributed usually through a 'Normal distribution' - or at least it ought to be. This is not always the case though, actually we did some math on it, and if you make two normal distributions then it looks much better. One for the students who attended class and one for those who didn't. ... And yet I haven't really answered. I don't know exactly what 'Distribution' and 'Hybrid curve' contains, though I suspect it to do with which grades are given to whom. Of cause, no matter which system you go with it is often the teacher who determines just how strictly the rules are upheld... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 What Adrian said. You'll be learning all about this when you receive your grades... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schwarzbart Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 Wonder how my real year 1 grades will look like (especial with all the skiped classes ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 I believe Skipped Classes aren't too much of an issue- the real factors are your score, how the Instructor grades...and, of course, the Instructor's opinion of you.

Schwarzbart Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 So its best to increase the relationship with the class Prof near the end of year 1?! (I usual cash in Favor by now for skillmax increases) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schwarzbart Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 aka oh Prof. Chastellain what was you favorit Violin music again? ... Ohh the reason i ask is that I can play it for you at the Music Exam at my Maestringer. Btw. Why are all wind instruments missing in the Music Skill?

Adrian Posted August 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 Hmm good question actually. I never tried flutes, not even in a game I think... ... Nope, none that I can remember. Unless you count Alleria's flute in Warcraft 3 - an item that gave your ranged units a boost Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 Schwarzbart; No particular reason other than the Team did not implement them; I think they're in for Year 2, though. The Pied Piper of Hamelin was brought up in a meeting, though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schwarzbart Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 At last some of my Chars already have 2 Wind Instruments in theyr inventory beside that they got formal training in the Horn trough the Adventure (acording to the text). The items are Enchanted Horn and Petrified Pinewood Piccolo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leoshi Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 Back to the grading system for a while. It would explain the time a certain bully got a 1 (one!) in an exam of his. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schwarzbart Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 Maybe if there is still place in a DLC we can get one Wind Instrument SS in one of the vew remaining DLC for year 1 , if not then there is always year 2 . Leoshi if the Teacher have to drag a Student to the Test (i.E. because he is Sick) this Student will get a big hit on his Examscore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
