...There is no such thing as a post that's too long.

As for failing, I don't think it was that bad. I'd pass you. But then, I'm not a tester presently.

So *prods Metallinauts, Tor, Blasea, Jordaxia, or any other of our numerous testers.*

I can grade it here and now if you want me to, since everyone seems busy, and we're both online right now, CF...

Hrm.
Actually, this is really hard to grade, which is why it's taken me a day. That said, let's try and get this done.

Scenario 1: I liked it. That said, some of it was hard to read, a facet that is consistent amongst your scenarios. That said, it doesn't make them impossible to read, and on the whole, I can read it fine first time, it's only occassionally I have to read more than once. As for your answer, it was perfectly acceptable, and, from what I've seen on NS, very original. 91%

Scenario 2: Since my primary criticism is that it can be hard to read, and I've mentioned it, it would be churlish to do so further. That said, I felt there was un-necessary amounts of detail regarding the whole server thing... lots of words I just didn't understand. Sometimes I got the feeling of technobabble being more than the writing. Again, however, it was of a very high quality. 89%

Scenario 3: This scenario I liked. Handled well, written to an acceptable standard... I don't really have much to say on it, actually. 91%


As such, your scenario is a pass. Welcome to the r-ESUS. Your account should be validated soon.
