The standards can be degree-specific, too. If we follow the U.S. model, "an essay that I've written before with a few extra comments after review" is probably about right for an Associates degree but not anything higher. On 2/13/2019 2:03 PM, Gaelan Steele wrote: We have had some theses IIRC

Welcome, Falsifian! Good test of new rule - nice beginning! In general, when a rule says "a Player CAN [verb] with Agoran Consent", it means that e does whatever [verb] is using the Agoran Consent method; that is, the "actual" actions the player takes are following the R1728 procedure. Similar
