Hey Omnimaga members,

due to my first term grades, in the which my average was 16.3 out of 20, my activity in the forums will lower. My parents are not very happy with this number... So, they have decided to forbid me of coming to the computer completely.

I'll obviously come here since the computer is in my room and they'll forget about it. However, I'll lower the activity to study more too :D

I'll keep coming here most days and I try to maintain an average of 20 posts per day. Also, my projects are not cancelled whatsoever, I'll be working in Ahead mostly and relax on other stuff (Java, tiDE, etc.)

Good luck with the grades.  I had the same thing happen to me, too, but I'm starting to be able to get back on more now.

Good luck with grades. When they seem to lower you must focus on school more. If you need to study more, then study more, and if you need to practice more, then practice more. My parents were ok when I had at least 65% and were happy with 70%, and very happy with 80%, but I am sure under 65 they would restrict some of my activities. (Note, they looked at my average, though, not each classes)

I hope you can come online from time to time, but try to be careful.

I'm a good student, I'll probably finish the year with 18.5 as an average, but for now I have to get 20 at maths, which is easy, but I couldn't get any in this term.

wow, DJ, they don't look at each individual class?  My parents would be so happy with my grade if that were the case...

Yeah my parents won't look at individual classes because they knew everyone has troubles at some classes and are better at different ones and simply just can't help it. They also thought some classes in particular were totally useless. Here are the classes where they didn,t care much about low grades, except that in French they wanted me to at least have the passing note. I was really bad at reading comprehension.

Mine do look at individual classes. They will criticise every single one :S

I am self-driven. I freak out if I get below an A not because my parents will care so much (at lower than a B they might), but because I would care.

I either do really well in classes or horribly. Sometimes I have no motivation to do the work, such as English.

I merely forget to do the HW D: So some of my grades suffer for it. I wish my parents looked at the grades overall. They wouldn't go ballistic as much. (Though I do wish my Step-father would come around to the idea of medication for my ADD. When I was on meds in 6th grade, my grades skyrocketed. However the meds also made me sick. :(

Spoiler For IMPORTANT NEWS!:
Late last night, Quebec was invaded by a group calling themselves, "Omnimaga". Not much is known about these mysterious people except that they all carried calculators of some kind and they all seemed to converge on one house in particular. Experts estimate that the combined power of their fabled calculators is greater than all the worlds super computers put together. The group seems to be holding out in the home of a certain DJ_O, who the Omnimagians claim to be their founder. Such power has put the world at a standstill with everyone waiting to see what the Omnimagians will do...

Wait... This just in, the Omnimagians have sent the UN a list of demands that must be met or else the world will be "submitted to the wrath of Netham45's Lobster Army". Such demands include >9001 crates of peanuts, sacrificial blue lobsters, and a wide assortment of cherry flavored items. With such computing power stored in the hands of such people, we can only hope these demands are met.

In the wake of these events, we can only ask, Why? Why do these people make these demands, what caused them to gather, and what are their future plans...
