- We all know what the scan-tron
- is, don't we??????
-
- The scan-tron are those bitchy
- little cards with the little bubbles
- and rectangles that our precious
- teachers expect us to fill in with
- those #2 pencils. In the past you
- had some machine zap through the
- cards only to tell you that you have
- failed biology. This meant that mom
- and dad are gonna take your computer,
- telephone, and nights on the town
- and stuff them in their closet, (along
- with their kinky sex toys).
-
- Well, worry no more...
- A group of brilliant people from the
- Armed Forces Pirating Guild have come
- up with a simple, but workable method
- to evade those little red slashes that
- seem to say "nice try, faggot".
-
- ***EXPLANATION***
-
- Scan-tron machines detect right or wrong answers by picking up on led
- #2 pencil marks.
-
- If nothing has been marked at all in
- the given space, then your answer
- will be marked wrong. However, if
- there is neither a dark pencil mark
- nor a blank, the machine will get a
- little confused and simply not mark
- anything. You might say to yourself,
- "Well, what about the score printed
- at the end of the test??", to which
- point we respond...
-
- Scan-tron machines assignes a variable
- to the number of possible points
- and the number of problems wrong.
- Then it subtracts one from the other
- and prints the answer at the bottom.
- The little red marks beside your
- answers represent the number wrong,
- however, if there is no red mark, then
- there is simply "nothing wrong" as
- far as the machine is concerned.
- And we all know that our beloved tea-
- chers pay no attention and leave
- all the adding to those wonderful
- little machines.
-
- ***HOW TO AVOID THE RED MARKS***
-
- There are two types of fill sheets
- one can receive, ones with the
- circles to fill in, and ones with
- the rectangles to fill in.
-
- On the ones with the circles, there
- is one way to avoid a slash...
- IF A CIRCLE IS LIGHTLY SHADED IN,
- TOO LIGHT FOR THE MACHINE AND
- TOO DARK FOR THE TEACHER TO QUESTION,
- THE MACHINE WILL GET CONFUSED AND
- SIMPLY LEAVE YOUR ANSWER BE.
- Once again, if there is no mark, the
- machine does not subtract from the
- total possible, and the teacher
- does not notice. Don't get it wrong
- though, the computer will mark
- a circle that has not been filled in
- at all 'wrong'. The only trick is
- to lightly fill it in with the cor-
- rect tint.
-
- Now for the rectangles...
-
- The same method described for the
- circles will also work for the
- rectangle form, along with another
- method...
- This method is, drawing many diagon-
- al light lines through the rectangle.
- However, this method is not recommen-
- ded because 'teacher' will probably
- catch on (some teachers are really
- stupid though).
-
- One more note:
-
- Finals are coming.
- Start practicing!!!
-
- By the way, this w3method WORKS.
- It's kept me playing sports and
- I gotten to keep my telephone,
- computer, and social time (ie.
- fucking my girlfriend).
-
- Ivanhoe and I hope this is beneficial
- to both you and Harry (ie.your
- pecker)
