Welcome to Gaia! ::

In this post I will explain the points system. The points system is the system that gives you points that you can use to battle with your summoned creatures. Each class can only challenge another class once per week in real time. If your class wins, you get to take the other class' classroom, and the losers takes yours. Battleing will be more closely explained in another post.
XXXThe points system will also decide which class your character belongs in. Once a month (real time) you can take a short test that allows you to go into the next class. The test and winning a battle will be the only ways of advancing into the next class. Normal tests and make up exams will not get you into the next class, nor will only collecting points get you further alone, but collecting points is still a good idea, as they will help you in the battles.

Classes and Points

This is the classes you will be divided to according to the entrance test and the amount of points you will start with.

Class A: You have to Ace the test. You will get 600 battle points.
Class B: 11-14 You will get 500 battle points.
Class C: 9-11 You will get 400 battle points.
Class D: 6-8 You will get 300 battle points.
Class E: 3-5 You will get 200 battle points.
Class F: 0-2 You will get 100 battle points.

Posts

Pretty and long posts will earn you points. See rules for the necessary info.

Art points

A picture: 10 points
The necessary info: 10 points
Colour: 10 points
Tidy: 10 points

Text points

Text is readable: 10 points
For every hundreds of words: 10 points

The Minimum for points for each post if you follow these guidelines is 50, there might be more if you write several hundreds of words. I will be checking this and awarding the points. Later, if it becomes to much for only me to handle, I'll appoint Assistants that will be able to award points.

Other

I will create another thread where you can post pictures and short stories or other miscellanious things to get yourselves points. Each entry will be worth 100 points. However, everything you post in there has to be your own things. You cannot use pictures from the anime or text that someone else has written. If I find out that you have done something like that you will have -200 points. (You can go below 0.)

Battles will be fought with the help of the 'roll dice' function.

When do battles occur?

The class president or the majority of the class decides wether there will be a battle or not. The rules in battle are the same as in the anime, the class that wins over the other class' class president wins, alternatively, if it's a individual or group battle, the person or group that loses all their points first loses.

During Battle - what does everybody else do?

The characters not involved in the battle will have to stay on stand by, when the battle is finished you can continue posting.

How Do I Know How Much Health Someone Else Loses When I Attack?

First of all, roll the dice. Let's say you got a five

Multiply 5 with hundred. This is your maximum attack point. 5 * 100 = 500.

Then, check which class you are currently.

A: 1
B: 2
C: 3
D: 4
E: 5
F: 6

Take the number next to your class and divide with the maximum attack point you recieved. For example: 5 * 100 / 6. If, like in this case, the answer becomes something like 83.33333333.... you have to fix the number. In this case, it's 83. If it had been 83.5 or above it would have become 84.

When Is Someone Knocked Out?

Someone is knocked out when they run out of points.

How Should I Do When In A Battle?

First of all, do not describe your battle. Even though I want this roleplay to be serious, during battles we will shift into a 'Fast Forward' mode, FF for short, where you only make simple posts that contain name of the character, current points, and eventually messages or short actions.



However, this is the only circumstance in which I will allow this kind of short posts. I will also not accept actions within ** except in battle.

Can I Dodge?

Yes, you can. But only every fifth post, and if you dodge you will not be able to attack in the same post. You have to let at least one person from the other class/group/side post before you can post again (your friends can post, but then they have to wait for someone on hte other side).
