I like to start a fresh. My town is “corrupted” with lag chunks and some messy and unsightly things, like the underneath of the town spawn and the incompleted subway system.

But it will be good if I can get back the town bank money and the things in my chests.

I am the first batch to take the new Combined Humanities syllabus 2204.

For Paper 1 Social Studies, SBQ now stands 35 marks, SEQ now decreased to 15 marks. Given 1 hour 45 minutes.

The other papers (Paper 2 to 7) are 1 hour 40 minutes each. I took geography and the new thing added is Geographical Investigation.

Here’s a bit of tips for Source Based Case Study for Social Studies papers.

– Evaluate the question, support your answers with evidences from sources and background information (content) with sound reasoning (elaboration)

– Background information only contains fact. Sources not supported by background information are ALL opinions. Political cartoons are always opinions.

– Photographic sources are not very useful or reliable because they only show what happened at the time the photo was taken, and can be posed.

– Use “I.C.E” (I hope you know what are them)
– Use “P.A.O” (for purpose questions)

– When making comparison, ensure you have comparison criterion. And at least answer “Content” level before attempting higher level answers (Tone/Purpose). Because if you only write Tone/Purpose and got them wrong, you get 0 marks for that question immediately.

– For usefulness question and reliability, always give 2 sides / aspects (useful and not useful, reliable and not reliable). Then focus on one aspect in greater details for higher level answers. Only if the source is very useful/reliable or not very useful/reliable. Then write just one side / aspect will do.

– Same goes for the “Are you surprised by…” question.

– You can write your answers based on typicality. Meaning if that a person making this source is biased or not biased. Here are the cases
1: Person A (From Party A) supports Party A – The source is biased unless balanced
2: Person A (From Party A) does not support Party B – This source is biased unless balanced
3: Person A (From Party A) supports Party B – This source is not biased
4: Person A (From Party A) does not support Party A – This source is not biased.

– Do not “re-write the question”. For example: How useful is this source as evidence about the Cod War? Your answer should not start with “This source is (not) useful as evidence about the Cod War”. The evidence (does not) contain(s) useful information about what? You should write things like “This source is useful as evidence about European countries are overfishing near Iceland which started the Cod War”.

– Compare usefulness question (2010)
You compare how useful each sources are, not similarities and differences. This is also one of the most difficult type of questions around.

Time management: Social Studies paper is 1 hour 45 minutes. You should spend 1 hour on Source Based Questions and 45 minutes on the essay questions. Spend a good 10 minutes to analyse all the sources and background information. Highlight key words if needed to.
I hope you will find these tips useful, ace your combined humanities!

A1 for combined humanities ah.

Best of luck melee49, Timothy and others are going to take O Levels this year.

I also struggled a lot when I did O Levels last year. I had to sleep pretty late, no time to play computer games. But I made it out and enjoyed the 22 weeks of holidays by playing and working, and also scored 6 A1s out of 7 subjects for my O Levels.

My principal always says this: “If others can do it, why not you?”

So, always believe you are the best. I can see that you are a very intelligent boy, so let this intelligence help you throughout the O Level exam period.

If you persevere and stay strong, you will make it out of the O Level examinations. 22 weeks of school vacation awaits you at the other end.

Here are some tips:

Complete your TYS as soon as possible, and if possible do it again and again. Also do time trial for the other schools’ exam papers.

Sleep early before an exam, you cannot work under tired brains, especially Social Studies. DO NOT sleep late or burn midnight oil, they are bad for your memory.

Eat healthily, you don’t want to fall sick before an exam.

Right before exam starts, DO NOT study anything anymore. Last minute doubts will cause you to panic and forget everything.

During an exam, do not get distracted, focus, focus and focus.

During oral exam, predict the questions that will come out and say out as much relevant things as you want. Make full use of the preparation time.

Once an exam is over, it is over. Do not look back into the past as it cannot be changed, Look forward to the future. Your current action will affect your “future” papers.

DO NOT even compare answers, wrong answers can demoralise you and can affect the rest of the papers.

You can try use this method.
The “LAST” method:

L – Listen attentively in class
A – Ask questions to clarify doubts (or test your teacher if you want)
S – Summarise your whole textbooks into a revision note
T – Test yourself, Teach others (Not only you can help others, you can reinforce your knowledge, so it is a win-win situation)

So here is your challenge: Score 6 A1s for your O levels, I will be happy to hear that. Good luck melee49, Timothy and others. May the force be with you.

I like the map making part. The current data tag are just too complicated that I need to search through wiki.

This is what hardcore rank is about, anyway if there is just too much of those dangerous stuff, they can always reduce the number.

[DragonEngineerParticipant]

Sorry, here are some small changes to proportion of different block types for the different mines, because I realised that the number of blocks stated (such as silverfish blocks) are too little in each reset. The more there are, the more interesting it gets ~ hehehe

Rank A Ore Mines:
– Can remain the same,
– Gold ores (0.01% per reset), but the gold ores and ingots will not be sell-able in Rank A shop, only through blackmarket.

Rank A Wood Mines:
– Can include more wood varieties such as Birch, Jungle and Oak Logs, and greater proportion of Birch, Jungle and Oak Leaves. The wood are mixed at equal proportion.

– I do not have much knowledge about this Rank’s mine so I am not able to make many suggestions here.

Rank E Wood Mines:
– Since people have a plot at this rank, this mine will have more variety of things. May include logs, fences, stairs, crafting table, wooden planks, leaves and slabs, at OAK variant. May include pumpkins and melons.
