I'll do my best, if not I'll just look out for you. Not allowed on Live, so use the free 48 gold cards everytime my parents are out (shhh!). Hopefully next Thursday will be good! :D

Hi Kawada! Absolutely right - Rogue Galaxy and FFXII not too far around the corner I hope!

Good stuff! I was always worried that the material would become stale after a few years, but if you get a greater reward from the teaching itself than from the material, then that shouldn't matter.

Thanks! I'm probably doing it for the last time this semester before finishing here at uni. It's been good fun so far and the students are great, but I could already feel the material become overly familiar, which was a bit worrying for university maths. Half the fun was the knowledge that at any second, a student could ask a question that I wasn't at all ready for, but as the years pass, that happens less and less. Although teaching might not be for me, a fellow maths PhD person has just finished and gone on to become a teacher and seems to be thoroughly enjoying it at the moment.

Now that is a tumbleweed moment.

But does he enjoy playing them or simply working out the formulas involved? :D

Very well, just checking. Have to remove people a fair bit because I get random invites because of my gamerscore. :D

I culled a load of clan mates recently since they all play the same things so I only need the lead sheep on my list if I want to join 'em. :D

Tis true. Guess you've really got to know your subject and really keep up with it, as each year there's an influx of people with new ideas and challenges to theories...

In your mind Heddy, it's all in your mind.
