Official Inter-House Challenge Thread

I don't mind what you use mine for, it can be an entry or an example! 😄

*bumping*

oh yeah, one question
have the Ravenclaws decided on a deadline yet? 🙂

i think it was 10 days

ok, question: is it being graded 4 grammar? cause i like 2 write in all lower cases.

The deadline will be the 31st May. 🙂

That's a bit more than 10 days because there was a misunderstanding. The starting date of the new challenge wasn't clear.

I'm not sure about that but it would look much more better if you use capital letters where needed.

k thank u.

yeah, i strongly suggest points for grammar

will they discount points 'cause of grammar??

I'll discuss this in the common room but I think we might give extra points for the correct use of grammar.

c'mon! that sux!

What sucks? That grammar counts?

I think grammar influences the style, so it should really count, Elondra's right...

Have you guys worked out a scoring scheme yet?
That would include the number of points for grammar..

Correct grammar and spelling are very important - it's a story not a general conversational post. However, there's no need to be too stringent about it e.g. if someone write 'teh' instead of 'the' there's no need to deduct points but if there are consistent errors then I think it should be taken into account when allocating points.

^^ I agree ✅ I think that grammar is pretty important. Like Exa said, it influences the style.

Exactly^^

So umm... do we have a scoring scheme yet?
And we should decide beforehand who's gonna judge for each house instead of wasting time at the end of the challenge, deciding that 🙂

Exactly. THIS time, the deadline IS the deadline. If we incounter problems, then we'll deal with them.

And houses Elect your Prefects who will judge this Challenge, so that on the day of the deadline, the Prefects and get in, score and submit the scores to Tassie and myself.

Actually...it's Kit's turn to judge but he's not been online...I haven't seen him in a loooong time 😖

You could PM her^^
She came on yesterday, I think
