House Points System

[The New Ages]

Here's the House Points System, renewed! This is where you'll find how you can earn points (not awarded/taken by Professors and Staff). Every Character on the Site can Earn Points, you don't even have to tell us your Alma Mater (we have it recorded already!). This Thread is where you can keep tabs of the points you've earned per Character (either in separate posts, or in one big post). House Totals will be Updated at the End of Every Month, so feel free to regularly edit your post(s).

The List below details how many points can be earned for particular things. Please use the code when filling out the awards, as it helps to keep everything organized and makes it easier on Admin to double check the math. Please provide links, and as always if there are any questions please let Admin know!

Members may backtrack to the beginning of the current month to include all posts made since then. Characters must claim all points by the end of the current month to be included in House Points.

In order to make things easier when adding points, please make your posts as detailed as possible. Add up the points and link us to where we're going so we can double check anything that looks like it might be recorded incorrectly.

Also, any points not recorded by you will not be recorded by admin, so if you want those points you have to claim them! Remember, you can claim all your big and small posts!

No Double Dipping! This means if you've claimed a thread started in February as a Multiple Character Thread, you cannot claim it for March, too! Admin will be keeping posts to ensure this does not happen, although the posts have been moved to a separate board! However, you may still claim all replies (Word Count-wise) until the thread ends!
