LETTERMAN JACKETS

[goosemods]

Well! Cameron just reminded me I actually had some thoughts on how to determine if your character is a lettered player. Letterman jackets have: Their letter (EH, AC, CT, RF), their house symbol, the school crest, their name & the position they play (on the back), and the player's year of graduation. Jackets come in house colors, and are purchased by students. They run at around 300 dragots a piece.

To be a lettered player, your character must meet the following qualifications:

• Maintain a C average.


• Be on a Quidditch team.


• Participate in at least half of all games played that year.

They're awarded their letter upon meeting these requirements for the first time. That means reserves will not be lettered and players new to the team this year received their letter just recently.

Additional accomplishments may also gain them patches to add to their jacket. Examples would be:

• Being a captain.


• Being first string on the Gooseberry team.


• Being on a team that previously won the cup while they were a member.


• Excellence as awarded by Mr. Thorn.


• Maintaining a 4.0 GPA.


• Small medallions for clubs they've actively participated in for at least one year.


• Being a prefect or Head Boy/Girl.

If you have any questions about whether or not your character qualifies, feel free to ask!

Oh wait a for reals questions: Could one student conceivably buy a letter jacket for another if said other student has lettered? Annnnd given that you said 'recently lettered' for kids new to the team, does that mean that their jackets just recently arrived if purchased or they just recently qualified and will get their jackets at some point in the future?

Yes, the jacket itself is just a clothing item you order through the school. It's considered kind of rude to buy your jacket before you're given your letter, but no one will stop you. People can also purchase the jacket for other students.

As for new players: If they've participated in 3 games this year and meet all other requirements, they'll be qualified for their letter. First string players should have hit their three in February. SO, add a couple months for ordering/processing and getting all their patches, and we can assume they could have gotten their letter jacket good to go as early as May. However, if people want to play out receiving their jackets and sewing on their patches, you can delay it and say theirs is coming in whenever you feel like it.
