(@Skit, fair on faking it in 1951. But still, 2080 had the same. Either way, it feels like a boring way to read me and a boring way to interact).

PEdit: Agreed on Plague, but can make my US history classes read only so much freedom literature :P

@Menalque/@teacher: Stop using me to obfuscate the game status much further. If you knew ANYTHING about my play you would have known I already crumbed my role, so I'm not going to be lynched today (or ever, actually). Try someone else. ;)

how much freedom do you get in terms of curriculum, teacher?

also what exactly do you do with AP students vs students in standard classes?

Entire freedom, but all the kids across the network (mix of charter and independent schools) take the same test at the end of the year and my pay is based on their performance (non-AP). In my AP classes, everyone is expected to take the AP, and Im rated/evaluated by the class average. The average graduating senior from the network has 8AP credits.

Funny, but that's not it.

P.S. I actually did win as a Serial Killer when I rolled it .. in an open setup. I lost as a Martyr (required to be NK'd at night to win). That's what the 1/1 as 3P is in my signature. Bottom line, I would've been sweeping you off your feet if I was SK here. SK has no worries, because they're expected to lose (usually less than 20% a chance to win is the standard).

But all that aside, I guess now the likes of tw & skitter will be doing a massive ISO search for my crumb, which isn't as obvious as I usually do it (because I'm trying to improve my crumbing so I would end up dropping a "bread loaf" as Gamma once called it).

I did, and found "I AM" in your opening post, but nothing after that I could pin together.

do you just teach AP history or other classes too?

also seems kinda fucked up that your pay is linked to their marks but maybe that's a cultural difference between UK vs US

At Mena, ignore my earlier question on the BS townlean. But you did put Emps on your readlist, so now I have questions about this explanation - like did you fully cross them in your head (to the point that flippy's spot in your Readlist should be BS?

I teach 4th grade world history, 7th grade US history, 9th grade AP US Gov and Politics, and 12th Grade Introduction to Law.

The pay is unusual -- the entire network is. But they were willing to hire someone with no teaching experience. The commute is death (1hr to drive 10 miles in the afternoon) so Im looking to transfer, but happy for now, especially with the freedom to teach how I want to teach.

Why do you disagree about that? Do you think he was faking his enthusiasm in his opening posts? I don't see why that's something scum would think of doing. Unless that's a normal thing to do here?
Again rebooting some norway questions from a coupla pages ago.
1. Why do you think he was enthusiastic in his opening posts? Certainly "dont do much til D3" doesnt feel that way.

2. If it is because of alone, why do 45/103 not get the same credit for the same type entries?

As an aside, the thread greeting/Im so excited opening post is a current meme in site-meta, not necessarily genuine. see making fun of 45. Which I assume was Duck's humor/response, not genuine excitement (though I think he does like the PL).

here you go ^^^
I got to this point in my read-through. And I agree with your response to this, finding Bingle's methodology to be scummy, in -- it strikes me as a way to appear to be solvey (rx testing and all) without giving out info. But one issue that stuck in my craw about 591 is the quote above - why would scum!Bingle agree with your read on his approach? Like, that gives you some towncred for getting mentality, and it paints his own actions in a worse light, no?

Im quoting and posting things as I hit on them (as you can tell from the fact Ive taken back two questions that were later answered). Maybe if I did your walls, I wouldnt be saying it as much, but its one of the more noticeable things to me as I go back through.

@Skit, this is somewhat of what Im talking about with your buddying comments. Like I think Mena and I have similar affection/melds/mentions of you throughout the game, but you call out me for buddying several times and not him (other than once IIRC). Maybe I just notice it more when its directed at me, but it feels like thats something you fall back on alot when it comes to me, and dont do as much with other players.
