- academics - gaming - Only the Philosophy paper left, but as our meditations on Socrates, Plato and the like will be confined to four multiple choice options, I'm feeling more than relaxed right now; Computer Networks was okay if unspectacular, Macroeconomics was blah, but it doesn't count towards my Honours degree CAP any longer since it's been spilt off into an Economics major. No complaints about Psychology and Computer Graphics however, especially the latter; Surprisingly, I felt I had a good claim to 47 of the 50 marks on offer, and at the same time relieved since putting in more hours on the module probably would not have allowed me to do much better anyway. Walked out of the exam classroom feeling a bit of Maslow's Self-Actualization then. Got to admit that I have trouble concentrating on subjects that are too dry (I still wince at the mention of Linear Algebra), have no clear connection to practical situations, or will be done mechanically anyway. Actually, even during the last exam-filled week, I allocated over a hundred computer-hours to what must be the most innovative RPG of all time, ProgressQuest. It was the game I was going to write, but never did. To underline its utter supremacy, eyeball some of the user testimonials and review plaudits it has received: "I don't know why someone didn't think of this before. Screw Baldur's Gate, screw Wizardry, Ultima Online, EverQuest, Asheron's Call, etc.... When I need a RPG fix, I'm going to PQ!" - Helcorax "PQ is as close to perfect as a game can get. It effortlessly usurps the paradigm of 'the game'. This is fresh, inventive, engaging, stimulating, and thought-provoking. It is the Jean Baudrillard of games. For anyone who has lived to regret playing some addictive game until 5AM on a work night (you know you're out there), this one's for you. I laughed until I cried." - aardvark3 "This is one of the best cases for software patents I've ever seen. If it's not already patented, I'm certain it'll be copied by all the big RPG companies. It's compelling and addictive. The best part is, you can play for hours, stop if you have to, and restart without missing a beat." - NotGrumdrig "Too many RPGs have gone the route of throwing in tons of boring filler to make their games look bigger than they really are. Not Progress Quest! It gets down to what really matters, the character development, the battles, aquiring new and powerful gear. I wish this game would have been released long ago, before I wasted my money on the others, Baldur's Gate, Ultimas, Wizardrys. This one beats them all, hands down." - Helcorax "...what some might dub the logical conclusion of the statbuilding RPG genre." - MobyGames review It's all true! I'm totally addicted. No quitting until my character maxes out at Level 90! Only about fifty more levels to go at the time of writing...

And here are the footy predictions for the week. $1106.50/$1200, don't remind me. Darn Carvalho. On the bright side, Arsenal and Liverpool fall further away. Time to diversify... $25 on Man U (-1.5) vs Middlesbrough (at 2.45) - Something of a bogey team, but who cares? $25 on Arsenal to beat Tottenham (1.60) - Double-edged punt. Misfire hopefully $25 on Liverpool to beat Wigan (1.85) - Big duck to be broken here... $15 on zero goals in the above match (8.50) - ...but Liverpool away again. One penalty goal in seven away matches. You do the math $10 on Reading to draw Bolton (3.10) - I dunno. A flutter Next: Like Old
