An observation

Some people go on to refresh the browser which can be simply eliminate with an email notification which user can enable when they want to be updated or this data can be shown on the Dashboard using websockets if they prefer. This is detrimental for the server which takes redundant hits and for the user since he is pointlessly clicking on the reload button when there's no actual update. This induces a lot of time consuming behaviour such as constantly refreshing the NESS (current portal for getting marks at Newcastle.) This in my opinion is serious time that can be spent elsewhere in a more productive manner.
