Proceed to the Activity Introduction, Tasks, or keep track of your progress with the "Dueling Club" Spreadsheet!
— QUESTIONS may be posted below or sent via Private Message to any of the organizers. Please include the task organizer AND myself, Prof. Sindor Aloyarc, on any and all private submissions or inquiries to assist with activity tracking.
Questions might include:
• How late can I start participating?
You may join in at anytime, however everything is due by Saturday March 30th at 11:59pm (HOL time).
• Is AI acceptable to use for completing tasks?
In the case of writing assignments, this means you cannot submit text generated by an AI/ML tool and claim it as your own. Everything you submit must be written in your own words.
In the case of artwork, graphics that are purely AI/ML generated are not permitted. As many graphics on HOL rely on source material that you do not create yourself (such as stock images and elements), we can’t prevent you from using AI generated art as part of a graphics submission but you must have altered, added to or manipulated the source material in some way to create a graphic. This is exactly the same approach we would take with photographs that were not directly taken by you.
From the “Use of AI Tools at HOL” post on the main forum.
• Why are there tasks missing?
On posting days of any given week, Organizers will present their own tasks as schedules allow. Tasks will be numbered to maintain the general order for tracking, however will not necessarily be posted in this same order. If you aren't seeing something, check back a little later and you should be good to go!
• Why are my tasks not up to date or correct on the spreadsheet?
Please allow for a full 48hr to pass before reaching out to the organizer in charge of said task asking about something that’s remained undocumented in the spreadsheet. If you’re noticing an error, feel free to reach out at any time. Something like bonus beans not being added yet, for example, can go unnoticed at first (especially if someone was a bit focused on updating their own tasks), and will usually get caught by end of week, but you can always touch base to be sure.
• What if I can't (or don't want to) do a Task?
If accomplishing parts of this activity becomes impractical or undesirable for any reason, please feel more than encouraged to ask for an alternative if one hasn't been provided, suggest something, or skip that section altogether. Our goal is to have fun! We simply wish to support your most enjoyable experience.
• How do I post Graphics?
A few popular Image Hosting sites are Postimages, Imgur, and Imgbb where you can upload your work, the locate a direct link toward sharing elsewhere. The “BBCode” to attach on The Roost forum submissions (which can be accomplished automatically for you by the click of a button from options at the top of your editing page) is [*img][*/img] with url in the middle (i.e. [*img]link[*/img]) — NOTE: You would remove the asterisks (*) in order for this code to be successful. They’re added here to display the example effectively. Images imbedded directly into posts must be kept within 600x600 pixels.
• Can I come and go as I please?
Absolutely! There are no rules against passing over anything you're not interested in, or doing tasks out of order. No pressure at all.
• Do I have to post submissions to the forums?
While we love seeing people posting/interact together should that be their preference, if you would feel more comfortable turning in some or all of your work via private message where prompted otherwise, that's perfectly fine!
