Points and levels
Your level shows how much theory and practice you already have under your belt.
Points
Every point counts toward one of the directions, and each direction has its own level.
Points are never taken away. If you delete a mark or a thought, you keep the points it earned.
Ways to earn points
Completing theory earns a point. A practice scenario played a new way earns another: say, if the decision comes out in a different style. In an exam, the higher the rating, the more points. And when you complete a whole module, you get bonus points on top.
Marking a habit for the day is a point too. Pulse, observation marks and every thought you write down earn points as well. You’ll find other ways to earn them as you go.
Level
Levels aren’t handed out for free. Yours goes up only for what you’ve actually done: theory completed, an exam passed, gold won in “Obvious?”, a habit marked.
A level is like a diploma. A diploma is more than a piece of paper: behind it are study, exams passed, knowledge and skills. It’s the same with a level: a new level means that in this direction you know more and can do more than before — and that has been put to the test.
Each level takes more points than the one before. And a level once reached stays yours, even if the scoring rules change.
Distinctions
Besides its level, each direction has its own distinctions. Some are one-offs — say, for the first module you complete in full. Others grow in steps: the more you’ve done, the higher the step.
