DescriptionThroughout the week, houses get points for doing good things and lose points for doing bad. We'd have nightly standards and then a final winner seemingly determined by headmaster fiat.
BasicsDo good things, get points.
Good things would be winning at a competition and being a good winner, being a good loser for fewer points, Completing duty roster tasks, leading events. Basically any behavior aimed at making camp better for everyone.

Do bad things, lose points. Bad things are the opposite of good things.

Each house could have a couple of rules that would escuse them from points in that area - kind of a roleplaying thing, like this house is notorious for being poor losers so if they whine after a loss they might actually get points
Why is this something we want to do?Kind of like the medal count at the Olympic theme, it ups the importance of other events.
