DISCLAIMER: CHEATING NEVER WINS! I DO NOT ENCOURAGE USING THESE TACTICS IN REAL LIFE

"Students are expected to achieve academically. They are expected to:

strive to fulfill their academic potential.
actively participate in the educational process."

Yeah alright, I get that. But how am I supposed to achieve my academic potential when these tests are so hard? This is why Olivia founded the Starlight Academy test squad, a group the fronts as a study group, but actually revolves around cheating on tests. Guess what? Peeking over to your neighbor to steal answers? Scrub tactics, cheap, lame, easily catch able. Nah Olivia runs a tight knit group of people, who come up with new and inventive ways to cheat on tests.

Anyone character who joins now is just going to have been it for awhile, so everyone in the group is loyal, AINT NO SNITCHES IN THIS GROUP YET. After our initial lets say 4 members we'll start holding initiation ceremonys, which will be fun. Anyways heres some cheating methods based on actual things I did in middle school and high school.

--Morse Code-- (multiple choice questions only)- If one member of the cheating squad is having an issue with a question, they make a loud cough to begin. Then tap their pen against the desk up to the answer, then someone who has the answer will tap out which multiple choice option they believe the correct answer is.

EXAMPLE

Cheater A wants the answer to question 16, they cough loudly, then tap their pen against their desk 16 times.

Cheater B pays close attention to how many taps Cheater A makes after they cough, then taps out what they put down for that question, which was C. They tap 3 times.

--Vitamin Water--

Studying is hard I can never remember any of it during the test. So lets print out everything you have to study for onto a Vitamin Water bottle! It looks like all the ingredients for the water, but its actually the years every US president was in office!

(Send me more cheating techniques through PM or skype please and thank you.)

Would Akira Walker work?
His power is designed to help him cheat, well not really. He uses time travel to send the answers of a test to himself (from his "travel phone" to his "regular phone")

BTW, who would you put up there?

Two ideas:

Teddy can join - he's the most likely to do it (mainly for the heck of it; he doesn't particularly need it), and he has an invaluable skillset for this task.

Second idea is a bit different - Aris is a teacher. A straight-laced teacher; he might end up a formidable enemy to this squad since he's the sort of guy who would actually go the extra mile and try to approach the problem even outside the class.

Ill be using Olivia as this groups leader, and the time travel idea is excellent!

@"Der Lampman"
These ideas are also radical! Teddy defiantly has a lot of different ways to assist the group, like going into corporeal form, finding the answer key, and then quickly jotting them all down. Also Sleight of hand can be used to easily pass things to other members.

Also I feel like I should ass this somewhere in the thread. CHEATING NEVER WINS! I now do the ultimate form of cheating, I read everything thats going down on the test in my books before hand, its like having a cheat sheet in your brain no one can ever find!

ain't nobody that can beat you in godmode so... cheating does win I sorta feel like this is one hell of a group filled with potential - time travel, phasing, etc - that they're just using to score higher on tests.

So, what is plan?

The plan is really just for the characters to all help each other get A's or B's on tests. We can do threads in which our characters use these different techniques, and they slowly have to get better and better as this teacher character you mentioned starts catching on to them.

Okay, seems good enough... one last question before I go sleep cause it is [expletive] late though:

...can I have Aris's threads be a la film noir?
