I'm DYING to see you!

Ya turn!

Oh? And what sort of trickery are you playing at today, sir? I'm onto you! You'll get no more wins over me! Lulling me into a false sense of security and then dashing my hopes with your cunning!

I am suspicious indeed of this sudden turn-around.

Well, if you are serious, then I must say that you did put up a good fight. It was fun while it lasted.

Done!

*Facepalm*

I'll start the battle at the group then.

ViviMasterMage: Want to fight me?!

Though you said this to Ralzy.

You want a rematch, no?

I've got Kuja on the mind.

Cambridge University!! Well, if that doesn't work out for you, I recommend coming here (to New Zealand), and attending Victoria University of Wellington. Our law school is among the best in the world, and I'm not kidding. We came first (or was it second?) in a legal moot competition, beating Harvard University, and I think Cambridge too. That's where I could've studied, but I turned it down. Why? Not sure really.

Yeah post counts blow. I think we should replace them with an average words-per-post figure. This would encourage quality posts, I hope. Then again, a high word count doesn't mean high quality, but it helps.

What does GCSE stand for? I'm guessing it's something like our NCEA (National Certificate in Educational Achievement); in other words, a school subject?

...

You could've mentioned that earlier!

Its either school or OTHER that is being annoying... -_-

I haven't spoken with Fate in over a week. Sad times, these are.

They don't ever talk much about them officially but from what I've heard they rake in a pretty penny for the stuff they do. This is the same with most of the world's special op's groups, don't know for sure but this is what I've heard...

Fate is Asian? Mind****! He's way too good at English! My mum used to teach ESOL (English as a second language), and these Asian kids were really smart, but their English was nowhere near as good as his.

Don't feel that you can't just jump into the ID forum at any point; in fact I encourage it. Some of the debates can get really off-topic and out of hand. At the very least, you could give your opinion on the OP, and it might help the whole thread re-focus a bit. However, sometimes the direction threads take is just in response to what the OP is alluding to, so be careful that you're not ignoring the new direction completely.

You can study law in school!? That would be cool. I was going to study law at university, but I thought I would rather focus on what I enjoyed, rather than what would be good financially (some would say sensibly).

You could take a gap year before university. A few of my friends are doing that at the moment, from a base in the UK. They managed it by helping in a boarding school; so they get accommodation, meals, spending money, and time off to travel. I'm jealous, but I wouldn't like to do that. The jump from school to university is steep, but steeper when you haven't been studying for a year. I want to see how they react to having to work hard next year. I want to go on a gap year after my undergraduate degree. I'll go to Southeast Asia through Australia, into East Asia, getting the Trans-Siberian Railway from Vladivostok on the Pacific to St Petersberg in European Russia. Travel around Europe, into Egypt and some of the Middle East, then home. I really don't have a desire to see North America, but I may get around to South America one day.

I always say to follow what you enjoy doing; that's why I'm studying (Human) Geography. But at all times it helps to be realistic; that's why my second major is in Applied Statistics. By all means, try and pursue game design, if that is what you truly enjoy doing. I just wonder if you will enjoy that in ten year's time. You're 14. The only error you could make at this stage is closing a few doors. KEEP YOUR OPTIONS OPEN. I cannot stress that enough.

Wah! Okay, maybe you do have a little--or a little bit more than little--common sense than I do. =P
Did you dream of sugar-plums and such, like in that poem? =D By the way, what is a sugar-plum, do you know?
Hey, I always wanted to ask you. You know how English (in England--the original) differs from standard American English, what with the U's and S's and all? In your video games, do they type out like "favour" instead of "favor," too?And does spellcheck there count "favor" wrong, since spellcheck here counts "favour" wrong? =P

Hey, Vivi!

Been a LONG time since we spoke on here, huh? o_O

They are like the U.S. Green Beret's, which I wanted to join but if I went into the army I wouldn't of qualified. I mean I go through crazy training but the shit I do is nothing compared to what they do.

The 'Kyle and Fate = awesomeness' or whatever it is. I didn't immediately think that you were brothers after reading this, but when you said that 'brother' line, it appeared to explain it.
