Do you think if a user gets de-scouted the reviews are not counted or is it for only deleted works that it will drop?

It sounds the most plausible explanation - I'll just keep writing reviews though :P

Great, applied terrorism 101 :P

Actually.... I was telling you what it was translated into off of memory from what the programmer told me. I translated it myself and even better yet... it translates into, "Live Version of the Terrorist to Escape the Room."

Timmy and I decided that the Chinese view American education as terrorism, therefor the dorm room was a terrorist room.
Hmm, that's certainly a different point of view.

Long story short, Nick is actually considered a terrorist in Hong Kong from some internet nonsense from years ago in college. We assume the game was titled that way because of the plane flying into a building though. :P

15-22% sounds like a whole lot to me. There are constantly commercials on TV here of companies which offer loans of 6-11%. I think 11% are the banks, so that's much cheaper than in your country. I guess those high rates are one of the reasons why so many people are in financial trouble in your country, right?
In part. Primarily it was due to giving credit to people who creditor knew they were unable to pay back. Those creditors earn not only interest from those people but things like late fees and fees of the same sort which kept people from paying the principle of the loan.

Yeah I've heard something like that. There was also this South Park episode about it, which explained it nicely :p

What the hell. I suppose you get a shitload of homework then. Either that, or you're expected to have a part-time job and such along with it. I can't imagine you guys may go to college for 18 hours and then sit on your ass for the rest of the week.
Most of my courses homework was optional since Exams have to be a certain percentage of your grade, especially the Final which was mandated to be a minimum of 30% of your grade. Of course for certain courses you have projects to do or essays to write which might be considered an exam grade but as far as homework in a traditional sense I wouldn't say so.

Most exams here are just 100% of your grade :p You either pass or fail the subject based on that one exam, no exceptions. Projects are usually separated from the courses, but they're not so hard to pass. They're just a lot of work.

I'm not sure which system I'd prefer. Yours sounds more relaxing because if you got a good grade for that 70% already you won't even have to bother with the exam.

There is so much free time you can see how many students fall in to a gap of not studying, getting too preoccupied with a part time job and ending up dropping out.

Yeah I guess that is to be expected. No wonder the American education system has such a bad reputation ;) I think in most countries in Europe they always try to give us as much to do as possible. Although the drop-out rate is still high at some studies.

Wait, so your year officially starts after those resits in September/October? Around here its usually: Year starts around 1st of September, resits the week before.

Haha me neither. You're doing some engineering studies as well right? I don't know. I'm guessing it's gonna be sitting behind a computer, writing reports and such almost all day long.
Yeah, business informatics. I think I will try to find a job that has a bit more to do with informatics rather than a job that focusses on the business part of my studies.

Oh that's not really engineering is it? Sounds more like ... economics mixed with computer programming. Something like that. Is that right?

Well, we study in semesters here, one semester (no surprises) lasts for half a year. The summer semester usually is from April to July and the winter semester lasts from October to February.
Exams are always at the end of the semester, the resits start about one month after the semester ended and if you are really unlucky (like me last semester) the last exam is only a few days before the next semester starts.

Haha me neither. You're doing some engineering studies as well right? I don't know. I'm guessing it's gonna be sitting behind a computer, writing reports and such almost all day long.

Oh yeah, I got mixed up a bit there. But informatics isn't all about programming. :P
It's more about "how does a computer work" (and it goes into the deepest details there, luckily I don't have to do that for my studies), about safety in general, safety in networks, safety in distributed systems, distributed systems in general, databases, human-computer-interactions, etc...
Only a VERY small part is programming.

So, my study field is more about "How to connect the business world with the computer world", as in both worlds people speak different languages, and more often than not they simply don't understand each other. ^^

I never owned an Xbox so it doesn't bother me. However, if you really want to look at servers shutting down, have a look at EA's games.

Another good example that companies don't have to go out of business to shut down servers and thus making it impossible for you to play some of the games.

Which features are you talking about? To my knowledge ICQ supports chat rooms (you can invite multiple users into it) and of course chatting between two users. Which are about the only things a client should support, imo. ^^
If you had the real MSN and AIM programs, you'd know what you're missing out on.

It's hard to miss something you never knew. :P

Oh yeah, I got mixed up a bit there. But informatics isn't all about programming. :P
It's more about "how does a computer work" (and it goes into the deepest details there, luckily I don't have to do that for my studies), about safety in general, safety in networks, safety in distributed systems, distributed systems in general, databases, human-computer-interactions, etc...
Only a VERY small part is programming.

So, my study field is more about "How to connect the business world with the computer world", as in both worlds people speak different languages, and more often than not they simply don't understand each other. ^^
That's a little bit vague to me in the sense that I wouldn't really know exactly what job you could have in a company. Could you also be running the website and such, like an admin? That would be the first thing that comes to my mind.

Exactly. It's pretty vague, so it's hard for me to imagine what my work day would look like. ^^

Yes, I could run a website, but it's not what I want to do. I have coded some websites already and it's a pain in the ass to always keep in mind to code for all the different browsers out there. Especially the Internet Explorer seems to interpret HTML in a very special way...

Underdog? Now there is a nice surprise.

Make sure to check out the Wiki thread that I made if you have made a game guide. Once I'm not so busy I'll get to accepting people to edit it. :)

If you need some volunteers PM me; Wi/Ht has been too dead recently and I'm getting bored.

Most exams here are just 100% of your grade :p You either pass or fail the subject based on that one exam, no exceptions. Projects are usually separated from the courses, but they're not so hard to pass. They're just a lot of work.

For me a typical upper division Econ course grade scale consisted of Midterm 1 30%, Midterm 2 Final 30%, and 10% Misc. For like the general Econ course (they type they force everyone to take) is the same except you took Three Midterms and they would drop the lowest one. Each college is different but typically this is common for most courses.

I'm not sure which system I'd prefer. Yours sounds more relaxing because if you got a good grade for that 70% already you won't even have to bother with the exam.

That has only happen to me once where I didn't have to even have a passing score on the Final; Physics II. I just had to score a 44% and still keep my B or score something like a 97% to get an A.
