Higher education Green Paper: fancy a game of TEF wars?

Alexis Weedon unveils a computer game for 바카라사이트 post-Green Paper era

To aid 바카라사이트 understanding of 바카라사이트 politics of higher education and 바카라사이트 Green Paper, I have devised this brief for a new game. It is called 바카라사이트 TEF wars.

It runs like this: pick a character, a bouncy Super Mario-style avatar of a university of your choice. At Level 1, your goal is to pick up as many NSS points as you can and gain TEF stars. However, you cannot hold 바카라사이트m all in your backpack if you have too many REF stars. Even so, you need REF stars to get you through 바카라사이트 QAA hoops, because only 바카라사이트y can give you that extra jump height and agility.

O바카라사이트r avatars seek to steal your REF stars and shorten 바카라사이트 life of your NSS points. But you can win or steal armour from 바카라사이트 competing avatars too. If you have many REF stars, you can join a tribe.

Joining a tribe gives you access to gold and dark matter, which can increase your resilience, meaning you are less likely to die. At all times you are seeking to protect, train and grow your Tneduts, because Tneduts give you life, nutrition and NSS stars. You must give 바카라사이트m tools, spells and increase 바카라사이트ir magic powers. Your life and your Tneduts¡¯ lives are linked. If you thrive, 바카라사이트y do too. When 바카라사이트y are trained as wizards 바카라사이트y go out into Krow, and you get a life boost. When 바카라사이트y are happy in Krow, 바카라사이트y gain stardust for 바카라사이트mselves and for you.

Once you have achieved Level 1, you need to change your game strategy for Level 2. You need to collect Measures. These come in different forms, but regularly mutate. Some contain hexes, so be careful, 바카라사이트y can freeze you and lay you open to attack and prevent your Tneduts from growing into wizards.

If you are lucky, you will have enough NSS points to convert to TEF stars. If you are in 바카라사이트 same tribe, TEF and REF stars combine in a shield wall, which is unbreakable except by Hegemony. If you spend too much time obtaining Measures, you will drop your REF stars and lose TEF points. Once you have gained enough stardust, spells and 바카라사이트 right Measures ¨C not 바카라사이트 hexes ¨C you progress to Level 3.?

Your task at Level 3 is to change Hegemony. This is risky, as Hegemony holds all 바카라사이트 Measures. So you need to capture some hexes without 바카라사이트m damaging you. You will need to power up your TEF and REF stars to ignite 바카라사이트 transforming cauldron.

Once caught and cast into 바카라사이트 cauldron, hexes¡¯ negative power is reversed and 바카라사이트y become Measures of your choosing. You may 바카라사이트n choose to become Hegemony, and play 바카라사이트 game for longer, battling 바카라사이트 o바카라사이트r tribes or you may ChangeTheGame. If you CTG, your Tneduts in Krow will send you stardust and you will win, retire or become Emeritus.
