Nice and honorable thing to be doing just as you enter law school.

What a great way to destroy the reward-point system.

I don't see the functional difference between this and the student that simply has a list of things to do everyday in order to max out their Westlaw/Lexis points. Neither is going to have the "addictive" effect that they seek to achieve via the rewards points systems yet both would receive maximum points.

It took me 5 minutes to write a shell-script that did this ...for another website. And that's with putting in a random-time based off a weekly seed/accounting for the obvious log entries that noobs will likely leave behind. Still.

It's just retarded. If anything, don't be lazy and design it yourself. That way there's no unexpected surprises.
