Hey everyone! Here's the camper sign-ups for SRC December 2021 session! Before you sign-up, I request that you read the FAQ- it's not long! It will most likely only take a few minutes and will provide you with helpful information about camp. Sign-ups are below it. Q: What is scratch reading camp? (src) A:cratch reading camp (src) is a triannual reading camp that takes place only on scratch! we run the camp in april, august, and december. you compete with other cabins (there are five cabins. the genres will be chosen by the counselors and co-counselors!) by completing dailies, weeklies, discussion questions, and more for points! most of the activities involve reading, which contributes to your goal! Q: So, how do I get to camp? A: Easy! Log onto scratch, find the studio that has your cabin, and comment there. That simple. You don't have to go anywhere, log onto anything, or provide information concerning personal things. Additionally, there's no minimum or maximum time you're allowed to spend in the studio. Q: What do I do, how am I sorted, and this is my first time. What's a goal and what should I make mine? A: To sign-up, you fill out a few questions in the comments. During camp, you do the optional activities to gain points for your cabin and read! You'll be sorted into a cabin by your page goal, timezone, leader you requested, and more. A good goal for a first time camper is 500-1,000, the sweet spot probably being 750. A goal is quite literally the goal you want to achieve. Page-wise, and activity-wise. Q: I'm worried about how original this is. In the past there has been originality and credit issues with SWC. Have you sorted these out, because I don't really want to join if they haven't, but I want to join so badly- A: We've added credit, for one thing, and we've added more of our own elements and twists. In our August session we had no problems, and we've improved on our originality :D Q: Who are the counselors? A: Historical Fiction: @squeaks1, co-counselor @-StarryDream Adventure: @ashxmed_, co-counselor @cloudy-club Horror: @Reva-Scifi_Lover, co-counselor @--starlight Fantasy : @SimplxSunset co-counselor @BookWorm887 Mystery: @TheBookLover_1point0, co-counselor @TwirlStar Q: If I like a certain type of books or a certain place, should I pick that cabin? A: Nope! They're just names. If you're in adventure cabin, you could still read dystopic books! Alright, now I know what you really want- sign-ups! 1) Username - without @, please 2) Timezone - if this is too specific, skip 3) Page goal - as stated earlier, a good page goal for a beginner is 750-1,000. Not stated earlier, the original page goal cap is 10,000. However, you are allowed to make your 10,000 page goal higher IF you have finished it and run it by your leaders, who will run it by the hosts to ensure everything seems right. Please only make a 10,000 page goal if you are confident you will hit it or come close for sorting issues. There's no shame in a lower page goal! 4) How active will you be during December? - Please answer with one of the following; very, semi-active, not very, I might check in once every couple weeks 5) Who do you want your leader to be? - Are you okay with being sorted into a different cabin? 6) If profile comments are off, how would you like us to notify you? Any specific ways to /not/ notify you? - This applies for activity checks (once camp-wide before sorting) Sign-ups will close on November 27th, 2021 for the sorting and backups will open again rapidly after.
