got it !
"partial differential equations" is mine. i got a 3 ! (thats the middle out of the marks 1 - very good and 5 - failed here in germany)

that leaves some breathing room for me until my exams which will hopefully be at the end of february.

please everyone resend their turns with me that havent been played for me by ricketyclik yet. i will see what i can do, but my internet account is limited to port 80 for january and most of my time will still be dedicated towards my studies.

I used to really like doing partial differential equations, then somebody showed me the "One-sided Green's Theorem" Then I suddenly realized I liked the dentist better.

Congrats Math. I already just played your turn for 68 - Dream Team before I read your message, sorry.

no problem.

my internet connection is rather slow still, so its a little annoying to play each turn each day.

My wife is going to be delivering our second baby sometime this week more than likely.

I won't go into all the... interesting details of why I know this, but if I don't get to turns until this weekend, or suddenly stop playing turns (like playing them tonight and then not tomorrow) then I have a new baby girl and a recovering wife, along with an almost 20-month-old to care for.

Let's hope there's not a third for quite some time, thank you.

Thanks guys, she's currently having contractions and we've been to the doctor again, and none of us has any good idea of exactly when, so when I do disappear for a while that's probably where I am (at the hosptial or my son and I are batching it back at home while mom and daughter rest at the hospital.)

Keygen, if my wife read that she'd probably want to hurt you. The back pain with this one has been horrendeous, or so I've heard... we're looking forward to her arrival though.

One boy and one girl, about 21 months apart... not too bad, eh?

I'm back so far...
Rickety, thanks for playing my turns. I resume playing now. I'll drop you an email. Please play all my turns you recieve(d) before that email and leave all others to me.

I'll do MP and 2x2 turns as they come in. 1x1 turns can be expected during the following days.

Well, my exams are over...
As you probably know im studying mathematics. More precisely at a (internationally) called "University of Applied Sciences". My diploma is internationally roughly equivalent to a Bachelor degree, maybe a little bit higher.

FYI,
my exams were:

yesterday (26th february):
Financial Mathematics and Bond Analysis
Physics

today (27th february):
Operations Research (optimization stuff)

I turned in my diploma thesis already in december.

For all americans and people from other countries with mark systems different from the german one.
Our marks range from 1 (best) to 6 (worst), but usually after high school, no one uses the 6 anymore, so the 5 is the worst, meaning you failed the test, whereas a 4 means you passed it.
There are Plusses and Minusses, representing roughly a third of a mark, so 4- would be 4.3, 2+ would be 1.7. A 4- would still mean the test is passed.

Now to my marks (if you care to read all my self-praisings )

yesterday:
Financial Maths and Bond Analysis: 1
Physics: 1- = 1.3

today:
Operations Research: 1

diploma thesis (i only learned today which mark i had):
1

diploma thesis counts 2/5, the others 1/5 each, so this is a 1.06 total.

--

thanks to everyone for wishing me luck. i sure made good use of it.

--

oh yes, of course this means im back.

I will be on a bussiness trip from 3/7 to 3/14. I think that I may be able to play sporadically, but can't promise anything like the normal rate of turns.
