Re: Stepartist Report Cards
and I'd like to hear some other people's opinions on this too. it doesn't have to be as long as mine, but a few other gradebooks would be nice.
ps. it's okay NTM we still love you |
Re: Stepartist Report Cards
You all get Fs because you arent stepping solo
|
Re: Stepartist Report Cards
You know at first I was quite skeptical when i love gabba got his first accepted file into Xoon 4.
Now he's gotten a few more, and judging from moches' grade, I'm a little excited as to see how he's improved. At least I won't get an F for not stepping solo. ;D Seriously guys try it. |
Re: Stepartist Report Cards
