[07:05] I like having the countdown in the right margin [07:05] yup, let's do [07:05] * Leander has joined #sevtrek [07:05] as I cull the finalists, everytime, it ticks down a few seconds, like an ebay auction [07:05] * ThunderDragon sets mode: +v Leander [07:05] heya Leander [07:05] hi [07:05] lol, nifty! [07:05] :-) [07:05] anyone care to run the JS? I can then post the winners as we pick them [07:05] another ebay clockwatcher eh? [07:06] I can run, as usual. [07:06] (long hard day out of a long hard WEEK - I'm barely sufficiently compos mentis to vote...) [07:06] thanx thunder [07:06] I've just finished culling [07:06] Nemi's on her way if we can hang on a minute [07:07] sure [07:07] on her way like half an hour from home? Or on her way as in on the toilet? [07:08] She's in space from what I've gathered. :P [07:08] yeah, she's the other side of a wormhole [07:08] Which reminds me that I am not training a skill right now. *shock* [07:09] Ulf!!! [07:09] I need to have an unknown amount of skill points to pass this part of the course. [07:09] Course? [07:09] As I said last week playing EVE is part of an Uni course. [07:10] you... I... !!! [07:10] ...oh yeah! [07:10] how easy is that [07:10] (I think Ben just turned green there...) [07:11] That's nothing. We had a lecturer who told us he held an entire course in Online Social Networks in WoW. [07:12] Man, wouldn't you just LOVE to be in that class... [07:12] *envies* [07:14] I've fixed the problem with not training a skill now :P [07:14] did you check your mail? [07:14] what, you levelled it up? ;) [07:14] Yeah.

[07:19] AAAH *hides behind Natalie* [07:19] *waves* [07:20] *clouds* [07:20] get ou from behine there you coward [07:20] I'm curious, what programme is this course a part of? [07:20] LOL [07:20] my typing fingers have decided to go on strike [07:21] The course is Introduction to Game Theory. The programme is Digital Games - Design. [07:21] is that Game Theory as in the same stuff that John Nash writes maths theories on? [07:21] yes [07:21] cool [07:22] (sorry to jump in there TD, you just crossed into my studies into game AI) [07:22] I don't understand it at all but sounds interesting [07:22] Deep Blue was not as intelligent as you'd think it was [07:23] * AdmiralMemo has joined #sevtrek [07:23] hey there [07:23] * ThunderDragon sets mode: +v AdmiralMemo [07:23] * AdmiralMemo waves [07:23] generally, perhaps not, but when it comes to chess....

I'm stealing work's connection, a rare opportunity [07:24] Nemi: "Make the most of free lunches whilst you can get them" ;) [07:24] We have gotten tasks do do. Which are to be done in groups and reported to the teacher. [07:25] like? [07:25] yes, lets get started [07:25] *wonders if they include writing down how many times you're called a "noob"* [07:25] thunder, if you could, that'd be awesome [07:25] I might tweak Count Dooku while we judge, lop off his arms [07:25] I'm happy to report that I've not been called a noob once this year so far [07:25] on rs anyway [07:25] Mining, clearing out Rouge Drone Infestations. And we have to write a lot of reports of different aspects of the game. [07:25] John: heh [07:26] Rat hunting > Drone infestations imo [07:26] hooray, choppings! eh, I mean....*cough* :-P [07:26] Sitting here, stealing Sirius....
