SPOILER!!: text version

THE ASTRONOMY TOWER IS A LIVE LONG AND PROSPER ZONE
Whenever you meet or take leave of another's presence in the Astronomy Tower you MUST perform the Vulcan salute (holding the palm of one hand outwards while placing the fingers in a "V" shaped by separating the middle and ring fingers, while keeping the others together, with the thumb extended) followed by the words "Live long and prosper" as an act of goodwill and respect. Alternatively one may opt to say the greeting in Vulcan rather than English, "Dif tor heh smusma."

▸ always try your best and attempt to HAVE FUN

⌦ Homework

⌦ OOC things to keep in mind

▸ All SS Rules and SS RPG Rules apply at all Astronomy threads at all times. NO EXCEPTIONS

▸ Please know the difference between In-Character (IC) and Out of Character (OOC). In-Character, my character is Airey Flamsteed. Out of Character, I am Pixie. Please don't confuse his actions with mine or take IC actions personally towards you as an RPer.

⇉ In Character Offenses will be punished in character. This means your character will lose house points, receive a detention, have their mouth magically removed, however Airey feels your character should be punished shall be done.

⇉Out of Character offenses will be punished out of character. Therefore, you the member, will receive a warning or infraction in accordance with SS site rules.

▸ Please do not change your answers or add any new information AFTER you've posted in the lesson. I will know if you do! I have ways. Changing your answer won't earn any points.

▸ If the lesson has begun before you post arriving to the class please do not think this means you cannot join! YOU CAN! Just pretend like your character has been there the whole time and jump in with the lesson - no matter what stage of the lesson we are at. Posting your character walking in after the lesson has started will either result in IC consequences to be determined by Airey.

▸ DO NOT just copy paste your answer somewhere form the internet. I will be checking. Use your own words, please.

▸ Remember that your character is a student which means that they are at Hogwarts to learn. Astronomy can be a very complicated subject and there are concepts and details that an 11-year-old, for example, should not know. It is OKAY for your character NOT to answer a question and for you to simply post them listening and taking notes. Creative and incorrect answers are also encouraged. Points are NOT given to correct answers only.

▸ if you ever have ANY questions on ANYTHING please do not hesitate to PM me, sweetpinkpixie.
