well that present you gave us wasn't very nice there mr. g.
agreed
i would like a gift recipet with my present...i dislike it
ohh so would i, i'd like to exchange it for something you said about the end of the month where we might not have to hand things in for marks for a while because of your university thing...i like that better.
since you gave us the so called "present" we should have that break at the end of the month.
"VERY EVIL""" AHHHH
How do you write position paper again?.Can you please go over it.Please
I agree with most of these people. I don't mean to complain, but I think the extensive workload is just a little bit unnecassery. Why have a board game project and an essay on the same things?

I will. I'm assuming that you were never taught how to write a position paper.
As for the rest of you...maybe it was mean to call the position paper a "present". Any revolts will be suppressed though. You probably will be getting a bit of "break" soon enough. But I don't want you to get soft on me. Position papers are necessary, the board game project is designed to give you a creative outlet. I think it's a fun project, and I'm looking forward to the dazzling results.
