Person_Random replied to Person_Random in N.O.O.B University - Important Message about your Application Status Newspaper Archive
Greetings, Tanker! It is with a loud sigh and a fake sneeze that we inform you that you have been admitted to N.O.O.B University under your fifty-seventh choice major a Bachelors of Technology in Architecture, specifically under the Textwall Construction program. It is probably the only acceptance letter you'll receive - all the other schools we have communicated with have gleefully rejected you. Well, at least you still got into a school, so congratulations for that? In our #13 ranked nationally acclaimed program of just nine schools that offer this major, you will learn a wealth of new knowledge that will serve nicely when you go on to graduate and serve as a personal Gold Box dropper for CashOut. Our state-of-the-art ten year bachelor's degree residence program includes a premium course and program design created directly by our president of the university, Lotsa Artikel. Should you choose to accept (which you will probably have to given that you have at least one living parent or guardian who might kick you out of the house on your next birthday), you will start with the Noobism Summer Internship program. Knowing that you might have skipped out on at least a couple of your classes, you might need a refresher course on how to read. You'll get all of that and more in our first-year immersion program. More information on the Noobism Summer Reading Program - How To Read We've also reviewed your stats and realized that you qualify for the exclusive N.O.O.B. Society within our school.

More Information Here You have also qualified for the Baguette Studies Minor. We are ashamed to be the first and only school to run this minor, but despite our shame, we have had enough time to poke holes in our paper bag faces to prepare some amazing courses for you. These are a couple of our new additions we're at least 50% sure that you'll enjoy: Unfortunately, the Baguette Juggling course that has been awfully popular in the past years has been discontinued due to an accidental dismemberment of the limbs by a poor Professor I. Kant Aime. We wish him a wonderful and restful retirement. However, we do have other courses for you, including this all-in-one Noob Guide for spending your time in Baguettelandia (during your 6-month required study abroad program): More Information Here But wait - there's more.

KHLOODY: Interviewed As One Of The Best Event Participants Of February
Person_Random replied to Wiz-Green-Gaming in Writers' Corner
Approved. Welcome to the AWS! Exciting and colorful first article - this was a very good first shot at an interview. It hit the spot with the conversational mood and the personality - the interview didn't feel forced at all. However, there are a few minor points to fix. Since KHLOODY was interviewed as an Event Participants winner, it would be more logical to write more questions about events (e.g. What is your favorite event? What do you think of X new event?) as opposed to asking about a bit off-topic questions like EMP Gauss even thought you're trying to hit the word count. Another tip is to ask more in-depth questions to elicit longer responses to prevent this. (e.g. When I wrote my HOTY interview, one of the questions was "How’d you become a tanker and a helper?", I also added the cue "When/where did you discover the game, how did you get to your position, etc." when asking the interviewees.). One last quick fix: make for the first question, instead of using "how are you, name/age, etc.", a more general question like "Could you introduce yourself" with cues like "greeting, [nick]name, age, how long you've been playing Tanki" will make the interview start more compact and lead the reader in better. An interview is a delicate art to master, and you've already done a great job - there are just a few specifics to master before you're on your way to becoming the next interview master. Again, great first work, and I hope to see more works from you soon! Edits: A few phrasing and verb tense changes - make sure to double check that the verb tenses are consistent within the sentence. There were also a few changes with unnecessary capitalization. See specifics in the spoiler: -
Approved. Interesting new release - there were definitely a few factoids I didn't quite know myself, so thanks for educating me on the secret easter eggs of Tanki. (Cue reporter discussion about turret masses shortly before we saw this article...). However, some don't really seem to belong on the list, such as "Developers are nerds in physics", which I felt did not really need to be added. However, the rest of the information was certainly exciting and novel, a pretty entertaining read. Keep it up and continue your writing journey! Edits: a few rephrases, comma/grammar changes.
