My computer is far older than anything I saw here - although I did just skim. Okay, it's a 10 year-old PC-thing (technical term, by the way), with 95mb of RAM and a 200Mhz Pentium Pro processor. The HDD is 20GB, and is about 2 years old. My keyboard mouse and monitor are all slightly newer than the computer. It all works, although not well. And the internet connection is awful. I use it for writing and playing/desiging BoA, and other Spiderweb games, as well as AoE 2. And browsing here. Luckily, it isn't the only computer in the house :P Edit: The only graphics I have is a built-in thing with 1mb of memory. And it is much worse than Brody's.

wz. As said: quote:I won't need a degree, as other people have said, to get a good job. I've already sold an adaptation of "Faust" (which is a very cliched thing to do, by the way), and my friend works for a production company who are interested in other pieces I'm writing/have written. And, if all that does fall through, I have the A Levels to either get into a good job, or go to university later. SoT Said: quote:That's quite possibly the most intelligent thing anybody has said to me about my future. Thanks. And you make a good point. But I won't be starving on the streets of London in a few years time. I'm working at the minute, whilst not writing, and whilst it isn't the trillion-pound salary everybody wants, it's enough to feed me and shelter me. I'm hoplessly devoted to my writing, but I'm not stupid enough to end up on the street with just a pen and a pad of paper. However good that sounds! :P -------------------- And when you want to Live How do you start? Where do you go? Who do you need to know? *Name by Slarty, so blame him if it's filthy...

Is that a new image Alex?! And Dikiyboa said: quote:It was only a matter of time, wasn't it, really. I have to do something whilst waiting for Coronation Street to start... And she also said: quote:And no, they aren't. I could try to be funny, but you're actually looking at a typo. See, there is clearly an "e" missing from my post. And you highlighted the exact location that the "e" should inhabit... :P -------------------- And when you want to Live How do you start? Where do you go?

I never go back. Ever. And I'm not teaching myself anything. Formal education for me is over. For the foreseeable future anyway. I *did* get into University. And a good one. To do English. Which normally, I would have killled for. My grades kicked ass too. But I thiink I've gotten to a point in my life where I want to learn by doing, rather than by reading. That isn't to say I'm not going to read. Rather, I'm going to do what I want to do, and let my curiousity and interests take me from subject to subject. And I think I can do that best off my own back. Plus, I want to be a writer, and doing an English degree will change my writing style. Which isn't something I want to be forced upon me. When it happens, fine. I just don't want it to happen because a 50-year old professor tells me to change it. :) -------------------- And when you want to Live How do you start? Where do you go?

Bah. You spam up the boards excessively, and unleash two monstrous BoA scenarios upon us (I quite like Lord Putidus), and then expect us to thank you for it?! Again, I say, "Bah". :P Edit: And Brody (whom you lot call "Alex" for some reason) is probably fighting some tntacled zombie vegetables.

I'd prefer an weekend one so that I actually have a chance of participating. And November is still a scneario away, Aran.

Yeah, Kel, the new download won't open on my computer - "corrupted .zip archive", apparently. Does anybody else have a copy they can send ASAP?

I've almost finished too - although I did send a report Monday tea-time, as I said. I guess hotmail screwed with the message, as per usual. I'll wait off until I've finished completely before i send it again. If you don't recieve anything by Tuesday morning, then I'll have to PM you the report or something... -------------------- And when you want to Live How do you start? Where do you go?

I was talking to Lazarus about my scenario, and found out that the plot is really similar to LP. And that's bad. So, if anybody could offer me any help, please get in touch. I'm free on AIM: Saralfur And MSN: nikkisjeffery@hotmail.co.uk Ideally I'd like to organise a chat, but I work off GMT, which isn't great, so we can use this thread too if we need. Anyway, I'll wait to see if anybody's interested before I post the plot as is. Nikki xx -------------------- And when you want to Live How do you start? Where do you go? Who do you need to know?

Utter brilliance. The only two things that could have made me remember would have been Aran declaring his undy... Aran talking to me ( :P ) or Stuggie. I think you out-did yourself with the characaturing (sp?) too. And the ending was deliciously Douglas Adams-esque... -------------------- And when you want to Live How do you start? Where do you go?
