Grow Your Grades Prize Announcement Thread

Original post by Rufus the red
As it just says 'GYG' does that have to stand for 'Grow Your Grades' or could one make a thread where it stands for something else still making that thread a 'GYG' but not necessarily a 'Grow Your Grades'?

I mean it doesn't have to be explicitly about grades, but it does have to be about academics I would say. You can't just make it stand for anything you like if that's what you're asking :tongue:
Prizesssss :woo: what's a GYG though and do I have to know this to win? Can I just have a voucher anyway?


Edit: P. S I didn't read any other comments so if gyg has been mentioned I apologise 😬

GYG stands for grow your grades, it's the name of the yearly academic blogging competition run on TSR. If you've got a blog in the forum and you update it throughout the year then it's eligible

There goes my chance to have a 'Great Yelling Goat' thread. :mad:

Spoiler



Would my current blog be allowed as long as I cover my academic progress to an extent?
Nice prizes! :biggrin:

This month is going to be a close one - there are a lot of good blog titles out there! :woo:
