The reason I am putting this here is because it does concern the CoD2 players more than the others so here goes:

In a couple of weeks I will be starting university and my time to play will be severely limited because I will be moving out of home and to a residence on campus and I am not sure when I will be able to get the time to play with you idiots; it will most likely be my christmas break more than anything when I can get the time because I will be home then.

 

Putting this up now so you get a heads up that I will be going soon and I haven't just disappeared from the face of the earth. This isn't me hanging up my tags or anything, just letting you all know what's hapening. I will still be on the servers every saturday and sunday from here till the 13th September (when I leave). I'll try my best to keep in touch with you guys through xfire. Those who don't have my xfire can ask :lol:

Going to a uni just south of London in a county called Surry studying Games Development pretty much so I am carrying on my studies to make vidoe games and the like for 3 years. Its going to be fun but also a hard and worthwhile journey

That's a good degree to be doing :) I'm studying Computer Science, University of South Wales, but living with three people doing their masters in computer games development :) I think they focus on C++ and C# mainly.

 

You should look into if your uni does an MComp course. Essentially you do the first three years as normal but don't graduate straight away, you then do a fourth year for your Masters but it counts as undergraduate study. You can get student finance to pay for it as its undergraduate rather than graduate study :) and you end up with an MComp rather than a BSc. 

 

Iv'e seen quite allot of the content of your course as some of the modules are shared with mine, Maths/Operating Systems/Networking/Graphics etc. Really good course.

Thanks :) I am not sure where to head after these first 3 years but I am sure that at the end of it, I want to carry on this further. I just finished college doing a very similar course and came out with high grades so I am sure I will so well at uni. After spending 2 years doing a computing course and then another 2 at the games development one, I have a pool of knowledge to take with me.

My course is mainly the graphics side more than anything which is what I like so its something to really look forward to

I think you two should share a flat so you can spoon together at night after a long day of nerd talk. :X

 

Both of you have a good year at school and check in with us when you can.

Haha yeah this will be my final year and then I have to actually get a job :)

 

If the server is ever not broken that means I'm not learning any more, that will be a sad day.

I doubt the concentration would help me shoot better. I am already a good shot. I have a couple more weekends till I have to leave so thats enough time to improve my aim.

good luck at uni.  you need any help, give me a call...... i am sure i can find someone who knows.

 

Thanks Bullet. I'm getting xfire on my new PC as soon as I can so I'll keep in touch that way. Now you don't have anyone to get easy points off too.

Well... there is window lmao.

Also, FU :lol:

I'll see if I can get CoD2 on my new PC to play at Uni so I can join you when I get the chance. If I can't, i'll still have xfire on there to keep in touch and you can tell me how shit your score is LMAO. You'll have to find someone else to get easy points off of. But then again, that's not many :cheers:

 

I have a couple more weekends till I leave so thats enough for some easy points for you. I'm leaving on the 13th september which is the Saturday so the way I see it, 3 more weekends here.

I just finished college so that means I am safe from that then :lol: now its just three years of university.

Then again, our college is the equivallent to American Highschool, so I am not sure what our University level would be over there

Yeah for three years I have been at university and all the American lot refer to it as either 'school' or 'college'. I have told them in the past that it is different here but they ignore that. If someone in the UK told me I was 'going back to school' I would think they were being sarcastic or rude.

 

Finishing college in the UK is equivalent to finishing senior year at high school in the US. Then our university is equivalent to their college. But where is the US university? well it seems that's only used for when someone is post-graduate studying at a college. Essentially though they refer to everything as school.

In American English, college and university are generally used interchangeably, but there are some subtle differences between them. University usually denotes a school that offers full undergraduate and graduate programs, while colleges usually offer more narrow programs and may have no graduate studies at all. But there are no official designations for these terms, and colleges and universities can call themselves what they want.

In practical American usage, university has connotations of prestige that college doesn’t have, although there are some highly respected universities that call themselves colleges out of tradition (e.g., Dartmouth College). Still, no one talks about going to university in the U.S. After high school, you go to college, even if the college you’re attending calls itself a university.

 

In the U.K., universities are institutions that award degrees, while colleges are institutions that prepare students to earn degrees. The system can be rather complicated and varies from school to school. In practical usage, British English speakers generally use university as the generic term for higher education.

 

Hope that clears it up. LOL

Bullet isn't articulate enough to have written that. He probably Googled it then plagiarized the text from somebody who went to university.  :lol:
