    What's With Your Writing?

    I constructed my essays entirely out of a 25 piece orchestra accompanied by segments of interpretive dance.

    The indie/progressive/experimental rock thread

    There is an unfortunate issue that plagues most forums on the net: an unusually high concentration of vermin and carrion eaters devoid and incapable of any real thought beyond what is prescribed by popular culture and what can be expressed in unpunctuated and grammatically incorrect sentences...

    The indie/progressive/experimental rock thread

    Snickers will no doubt erupt when I actually dignify your comments with a response, but a clarification is requested as to each of your statements.

    The indie/progressive/experimental rock thread

    Right. This here's a thread for people who don't exactly buy into the whole pop/rock thing going on right now, who like music that actually sounds new and inventive (goodness gracious me, can it be true?). Music with a bit of intelligence behind it that requires a bit of patience to grasp the...

    Going gamer hunting.

    So, I'm looking for some Roleplayers who are interested in trying something new. Because for the old guard, I have a message: D&D is dead. D&D is dead and unmourned and the new kids on the block are dancing on its grave and using its bones for toothpicks. With that out of the way, anybody in...

Yes, granted there are some skills measured, such as memory, speed and to some extent...

    How many pages did you write for Q2?

    who ran out of time?!

    I've always been a quality over quantity writer. Give me a weekend and I'll come back with some absolute kickassery, but in an exam with only 40 minutes to write an essay, I'll get one or two pages. Thats it. I suppose what we should all be happy about is that each section is only worth 15 marks.
