Title: Nats double promos....
Post by: Rawrlolsauce! on June 02, 2010, 07:39:48 PM
Do you still get a second set of promos for all As?

Is an A- classified as an A?  :prayer: :prayer: :prayer:

I don't know how getting 106% on my math final didn't bump my grade up 2%......

Especially beings I failed tests all year, so I was averaging like 80%..... so the weighting should help me in this scenario

Double promo's For a A?  What is that all about?


IF that is the case I got an A for this semester, I am in graduate school.  Are you saying I would get two sets of promos???

If you get straight A's and bring in a report card of sorts you can get double promos

Does that mean I can dig up all my report cards from like the last 6 years of school where I got straight A's and graduated with a 4.0 as the 3rd highest student in my class?  Or could it be extended to A's and B's for college because college is WAY more difficult haha and for the first year I had A's and B's...

It has to be the most current report card, and no, he doesn't change the rules for college students.

Does it count if I only took one class this semester?  And got an A with having a new born at home!

I should probably just send Rob an email.

Or spam this thread until he comes to banzorz me fer massive spamzorz. That sounds like more fun, tbh.

darn. I got one B this semester. not that I care, the promos are basically worthless anyway, but...

You could sell them pretty easily for $50, at least.

I'm still raging at my math grade.... It seems like I should really have an A.

seriously? I really don't think they're worth that much, but...I might do that. pay off some of the tournament fees.

hey, let's put our grades together! I got an A in math, and you (hopefully) got an A in spanish!

Probably closer to $35, TBH....

AOCP = $15
POC = $10
SA = $5
MPA = $5
Others = 1x Sweet 'N Sour packet from McDonalds.



How do you get a B in Spanish? I didn't turn in any homework all year and I got like a 98....

I'm doing PSEO. I was getting upper 80s on most of the tests.
how did you get a B in Math? I put a smiley face on a wrong problem and the teacher counted it right!

My newb school doesn't have PSEO Spanish... :c.

I didn't get a B in math. I got an A-. Probably because I didn't study all year, so I always go the formulas wrong.

in other words, you weren't a Junior/Senior.

oooh, A-'s count. almost 100%.

I'm pretty sure they don't offer PSEO Spanish... I signed up for my classes next year and the only Spanish option was Spanish III, but they do offer some   PSEO.

what? what? you should have access to all the classes at Riverland.

I was only offered a math, three Englishes, and two histories.... I'm within the top 5% of my class, and I believe the cut off is like 33%, so I should be offered all available ones.

That might be because I opted to take the RCC classes at the High School instead of Riverland, though.

I just IM'd a friend that did opt to take the classes at the college, he said he wasn't offered PSEO Spanish either.

Oh well. Doesn't make sense, but I don't really care. Spanish isn't really that important of a subject anyway, I'm just taking it and French to fill up my schedule.

odd, because Ian (Bissinger) was definitely in my spanish class this past semester.

Thats weird, beings I haven't heard about any changes they've made to the system.

Now I regret not taking them at the college if I'd have access to all the classes.... I really wanted PSEO Science (although my Science teacher at the HS is the coolest teacher ever, so its not that big of a loss).

That science teacher at Oakdale Christian Academy might be hurt....except that he actually isn't very cool at all, so it's OK :)

I didn't like the teacher at RCC anyway. she seemed pretty clueless about a lot of things. some of my classmates were awesome though. we ended up getting into a 15 minute talk (in english) about Call of Duty.
Title: Re: Nats double promos....
Post by: Rawrlolsauce! on June 04, 2010, 04:59:38 PM
The teachers at the HS are pretty good. The only ones that are..... lacking..... are the Spanish teachers. There is really only one Spanish teacher that should have a job....

Although my grade seems to talk a lot. We talked about a T-Rex for 45 minutes one day in English, Chicken Nuggets an entire History hour, and in Math we talked about Tiger Woods for 30 minutes.

(After an epic game of pictionary, where I drew Tiger Woods. It took a while to get it beings I drew 15 ladies before I drew Tiger or a golf ball.)

Yeah, I know. Atleast I'll still get college credits for my Math/English/History.

Back in the day when I went to National Tournaments, A- would count for the double promo deal. Or at least Rob didn't seem to mind so much about my one A-. I did that for three years starting in 2005 I believe. Now if only I could hide my Partial Differential Equations grade from this past semester somehow... ;)

i had straight A's all year and I got the academic Scholar award witch means I maintained a grade average of 95%+ all year and I won the Math Olympics for computation for all of my grade in the school district and all this just because I was in 6th grade.  8)

I am not able to make this offer any more because we are starting to run out of some of the cards.  So, I want to stretch them as long as I can.

You were generous to maintain this deal as long as you did.   It is understandable that it had to stop sometime.  As a teacher, I appreciate your support for academic excellence.

Maybe this year you can let them have two personal cards if they have all A's.

Post by: Rawrlolsauce! on July 04, 2010, 04:42:55 PM
Oh well. It's unfortunate, but understandable. Too bad I was never at Nationals to take advantage of the deal :(.

Ironica has a good idea too. Or maybe you could also accept $x Redemption Cash towards the new set if someone gets all A's (assuming you don't already?), but that may be hard to keep track of.


Still, thank you for your generosity. You've [probably] been more generous than any other card game creator, which is a great thing for the community.
