All Beekeeping, Classics and History lessons have been issued. Next on the timetable is Economics.

For the benefit of the freemiums taking part, I agreed to keep to a maximum gamecount of 2, so I will only send invites to Economics classes when I can keep all players within that maximum.

If you knew my school it might explain the reluctance to choose sports, since you risked running through a load of bees with every lap of the track.

Well, at least you had a decent excuse. I avoided sports in my school years mainly because I'm just plain lazy.... :-)

Hmph. Couch potatoes.

1 kill away from a perfect score in my History class...Only Sniper stands in the way, and as long as he doesn't have a 3 card set, the game is over this round...

by **kennys777** on Thu Aug 18, 2011 2:43 pm

Alright, History lesson has ended, and I eliminated everyone personally and won the game...

=D>

Looks like I am at the head of the class!

by **sonicsteve** on Sat Aug 20, 2011 4:08 pm

kennys is indeed head of the class, and is pretty fast as the only student to complete 2 subjects so far.

A few other lessons have finished quickly and I've updated the very early leaderboard.

I'm off on holiday for two weeks now, by the time I get back on September 5th, most ongoing lessons should have finished so I should be able to start the balance of Geography and Economics and start issuing the next subject straight away.

by **Leehar** on Wed Aug 31, 2011 3:29 am

11 Points for Economic class AoM Game 9549016
10 Points for History class Flanders Game 9544143

Do I jump to the head of the class?

hmmmm... I'm just looking at the "location" listed in your profile, sensfan.... irony... :-)

Sorry for the delay on this.

Took me longer than I thought to get back up to speed after my vacation, what with switching clans on here and a few things going on at work.

Scoreboard now updated and Hath is top.

Games will start to flow again once more...

by **sonicsteve** on Thu Sep 22, 2011 5:27 am

All Geography games are now released, though I will need to remake one as a 5-player game - apparently Gillipig's Mum turned up with a note.

Just to clarify - if you are in a 5-player game, the first player out gets 2 points and the kill for the 'missing' player will be awarded to the player who gets the final kill.

Maths is the next subject on the syllabus, and was the joint most popular subject alongside French with 90 students electing to study it.

Good luck finding your random classrooms:

Time to move on to the Sports Field.

I hope you've all brought your kit, or you'll be playing cricket in your underwear. Oh, and careful if your playing at Deep Extra Cover - just remember that the beekeeping lessons haven't ended yet.

As usual lessons will start once all students in the class have a free slot, so we'll need some Geography or Maths lessons to finish before I create most of these.

There were 30 items in your list. Here they are in random order:

I have applied for and been granted 2 further GA medals for Sonic goes Bank to School [TPA2]

lindax already approved a medal for most kills across 3 rounds.

On reflection I think it is a pretty decent accomplishment to top the leaderboard for Round 1 and 2, out of 120 and 80 players respectively. DJ Teflon agreed, so there will be a GA medal for the winner of each of the first two rounds.

by **sonicsteve** on Tue Sep 27, 2011 8:54 am

All Economics classes are now finished - Leaderboard updated.

by **sonicsteve** on Wed Oct 05, 2011 12:21 am

scoreboard updated - macbone moves to the top of the class

by **Leehar** on Mon Oct 17, 2011 1:51 pm

Squeeze through another 8 points to jump closer to the top of the leaderboard again?

Doing an update today - should get French classes out, will give that missing player a final 24 hours or they are out, then will work on the scoreboard update.
