No kidding! This'll be awesome!

 

I loved Allison's lunchtime ultimatum; "Well, we like it out here," (her, Sarah, Elie and I were sitting under a tree in the "Quad" which is like a kind of courtyard) "So you can either stay in there or come out here with us."

 

Suddenly we have about twenty students eating their lunches in the shade of the tree with Allison and I perched atop the roots laughing. I'd forgotten how big the theater table was back in the Middle School cafeteria.

 

Also, try for a fourth period lunch Techy. That's when Allison, Sarah and I have our lunches, and probably a fair few of your other friends as well (Not to mention "George" Emily has lunch sixth period, huzzah! One more bullet matrix'd!).

Nex, there is absolutely no chance I would have a lunch period.

Why? You have no Study Hall?

 

And I thought Allison said you were trying for a lunch.

 

[insert snide comment about not spending time with Lidya here.]

 

[Oh wait, you probably have a class with her, and does she even have a lunch period?]

I have a study hall 1st period. I don't really want to eat at 9, right after breakfast. I was trying for Algebra 2, but my mom was making me try for a lunch while I didn't really care.

 

We have Geometry.

We have a coutryard called the quad as well.

 

We also have the commonroom, but it's pretty bleak. We're getting a new tertiary block soon though, and judging from the building designs, the new commonroom is going to be bloody awesome.

 

I switched out maths for a second IT course. Now I don't have any free periods on thursdays or fridays, but plenty on monday, tuesday and wednesday. Also, every single thursday and friday lesson for the next year or two is in a computer room.

 

Hell yes.

Lol, we have a courtyard called the quad too. Except there are no trees. We just go out there during free periods and play frisbee.

I have to do work during free periods! Playing frisbee would be out of this world.

Pfft, free periods. Those would be cool. We have lunch, where you're limited to the cafeteria and quad unless you have a legitimate errand, and study halls which I have not had yet.

 

I think it gets more lenient at higher grades though, as Seniors you get to leave campus after the first few weeks.

 

Also, apparently if you're illegally absent (maybe even if you're just tardy, I don't know) to a certain number of classes they revoke the "privilege" of being able to drive to school. Thus making the problem even worse. I've been forced to conclude that on a non-individual level school administration is so stupid that, had they a human personification, he or she would be held back in ninth grade for seven years.

It'd be rare that the school would give punishment if you can prove a reason why such a thing happens. Then again if you're tardy cause you get to school late there is always the option of leaving earlier....

 

Our 6th form only has two years. AS level and A2 level. The rules are rather tight, if you fall behind in one subject you HAVE to catch up or you have to do a thing I think either everyday or everyweek for four weeks. Same applies for missing homework. Coursework was revoked though, so it has made school more enjoyable. Effectively, in lessons, if the teacher says "Okay, you may leave to research" you can leave the classroom and go anywhere, though our teacher has only given this rule out once, and for some reason no one left :S. Also in our free periods, we do not have to study, infact we do not even have to be at school. Though I always stay either on the quad or the commonroom, though today I did go to the library. The A2 students normally dominate the areas, and me being shy, will never go up to them and ask to join in on a pool game. I normally stand next to the pooltables until one asks "Do you want to join in?"

It's a REALLY big shaft.

I didn't catch fire, I used the can of hairspray as a flamethrower and pointed it at my arm.

how are you going to ignore my posts when I'm offering to let you live as my vassal in two weeks time?

As could mine since I only base the system of actions on Dungeoneering, I will roll only when necessary (as opposed to rolling for finding pebbles, etc. :razz: ) and I will keep record of events and creatures. That reminds me I should add a record on the aurora borrealis.

Have we ever actually had a game that is more RP based... I remember Vixion and Iey made one, that was pretty cool.

I have two games in the workings.

Detective agency.

Hegemony style one lots of micromanagement.

Hegemony, all fun no work but harder to win easily.

 

What's your idea pie, in a sentance?

My modern warfare was unlike hegemony. Instead of being a leader of a country you were a commander. Told what you had to do given objectives and such, but no one seemingly wanted to play so I have given up a little with making games.

 

It too was meant to have quite a large amount of micromanagement, where you would direct your armies, manage your budget, buy specific things. Thinking back the game had quite a bit of potential.
