EDIT : dont be ashamed to admit u play something haha
-
First semester, i played dota/wc3 5-6 hours a weekday and ~25-30 hours on weekends (lol yes what a geek)
It resulted in my sem 1 report being filled with B+'s and A's...
Since i've quit, everythings been A+
Bottom line is... DONT PLAY GAMES IN YEAR 12

-
Hahah my school sacs are a joke though. i didn't do any questions or revision at all and still got near top of the class in everything.
You study 4-5 hours a night? Is that... productive study time? or does that include eating, msn, facebook, texting, vn, singing etc

id say 3 hours straight head down productive study ( exam questions )
1-2 hours of notes/ more questions .. but im on vn alot while studying in that 1-2 hours.
-
I tend to play games a lot to the point where continuing to play them is actually more boring than studying. Luckily I get bored of most games pretty fast... although I do relapse every now and then.

+1. I do that.
-
I play games when I have nothing more productive to do, or when study just wouldn't be productive. but like /0 I get bored quick and go back to study. too much study is detrimental anyway. enjoy VCE and beyond :P

Lol I can't believe I haven't touched my wii since the start of this year... I used to play on it like at least twice a week previously.

EDIT : dont be ashamed to admit u play something haha
lol i didn't play any games in year 12 but kept up with dota news
but from year 8-10(11ish) i was a hardcore dota player, played soooo much, trained with team mates for like 11 hours a day, got sponsored and played @ asian world cyber games and heaps of lan/online tournaments, fuck those days were epic but at end of year 11 i gave up all games for vce so yeah haha but i'd still read up on dota news @ mymym and sometimes ref a few tournaments.
anyways seriously don't play any addictive games like dota in year 12, my team mates are still playing now and one of them is in year 12, he is absolutely fucked... always wags and just dota all day, well he is part of the best australian clan (M.City) now but would you really sacrifice your VCE to be the best @ dota? lol
-
^Pub scrubbing is hilarious. Especially with the load of shitty bastards online these days T_T Get WC3, we will play :D
-
I still play wc3 frozen throne quite often, which is really bad for my homework but yea ive cut down since the start of the year
-
I still play heaps of games. Too many around me to not play, surprisingly I still get A+s in SACs. lol I remember playing COD the day before physics mid-year ><
I'm planing on stopping in 2 weeks :p
-
I'm not intending to play online games this year. I tend to get carried away when I was playing one last year. I've had better grades since I stopped playing. My focus also improved.
I'll start playing after year 12, though I don't think I can still play though, I've lost my interest really. To relieve my stress, I watch funny movies at home. I don't like watching in cinemas when I laugh so hard. ;D
-
When I'm down I head down to Box Hill time out and blow 20 bucks on Street Fighter IV and DDR.
-
I generally play gamesfor 30mins-1hour after doing tests or SACS just to release some of the stresses I've had. Afterwards, I feel so relaxed that I can study pretty good :)
-
I played games far too much during year 12.
Don't do it.
-

Fallout 3 was released the day before my english exam :(
-
Starcraft is eating up my life like no tomorrow
-
lol
i love it how each one of us has been a geek in their own way or time.
hahah all of us either play or have played one of /cod/wc/starcraft/rs/xbox/ lol
wastes so much time in yr 12
thank god i quit games earlier this year lol

Counter-strike ate my life from grade 6 till year 10.
-

rs was best game
year 12 is a killer for everything

so was cod . they changed the interface of cod lately so that its higher definition
love it
cant wait to finish yr 12 and get back into the games and my sporting career lol
-
Hahah it's amazing how dota has survived like 90 versions and still heaps popular. Not to mention the games that used the exact same idea (LoL, HoN etc)

lol yeh i guess
idk why . i never liked dota or wc really.
rs/cod/was my games lol
and oh ofcourse xbox live /xbox360 live fifa 2005-2009 ..
-
lol they created an SC2 'dota' called 'storm of the imperial sanctum' (SotIS)... for being a young game it's pretty decent but it's still nothing compared to dota. They've got about 15 heroes so far but lots of imbalances to sort out.
-
That name is just ugly...

Games are soo addictive, but I reckon Facebook is worse.
Played RS until two years ago, played COD just to chill out last few weeks.
Even worse - going out too much :S..
hardcore friday & sat nights..
soo much time gone (not wasted though.. <-- I keep telling myself that)
yeh facebook is pretty bad
but id have to say . rs/cod had a bad hold on me at start of the year before skool
going out is good though .. not time wasted .. its usefull fun
but computer stuff is wast of time lol

ROFL Rs threads are good fun.
I remember playing up until around year 9.. I never told anyone that I played because everyone thought it was gay. IT WAS A FUN GAME MANG, I remember .. In like grade 6 i spent 1 WHOLE year fishing for lobbys ROFL. Itsk, I made 2 mil or something.
But still, FKN ROFL. I've had membership for ages too- my friend and i shared an account, his mum was loaded.. so he just used her card ;D

really long nights out @ either parties, bars or clubs?
what bars/clubs you go to?
and to stay on topic, I'm not playing any games in year 12 - not really the gaming type although I used to be.. played dota a fair bit in years 9/10. just generally over games now
-
laws of the internet: when admitting to playing lots of computer games, must also throw in that you're a hardcore clubber in order to salvage self-esteem
duh
-
BUWAHAHAHAHA. He can be like the guy off the "DotA" filmclip.. DotAin' with girls on the floor.. then hitting up the clubs, singing and getting the ladies.
-

u were snipering behind that crate, dodgy :P
-
Man, I'd prefer to prove myself to be a gaming nerd/hard studier than a gamer/person who goes out during year 12 and gets drunk etc.
-
Hey, no need to get snarky. Nobody was attacking you :)
-
Self-everything :P Self learning/control etc.
-
i shared a rs account with a childhood friend, it's like 99 strength and range now and its like lvl 80 or something :D
-
Haha back in the goold old days, hardcore gaming. I didn't play much on PC though, since my computer was so crap and laggy and graphics card wasn't good enough. Only really CS. Otherwise i would play PS2 for few hours everyday.
But I started cutting down in year 11. And this year I've barely played any games, i now once i start its too hard to give it up.
So far so good.
-
Pure's are fun. Go PK'ing in the wilderness :D
-
Yeah, dude.. Those updates are gay.
ALL OF THEM, including that shitty new skill.
-
Yeah man, it was the starter for most of us :P Math and science is the only thing i believe in now.
Cough
-
mate the reason i know how steel is made, and how bronze is made is thanks to runescape.
thank you jagex for starting me off with chemistry
pking sucks overall now unless you buy new skills/weapons/prayers (yes you have to buy them now!)
-
I also learnt of the benefits of steel compared to iron
we should have a VN pking trip at the end of the year!
-
Yeah, defs. It will be hilarious.
@ Taigastyle..
You're doing spec, but no methods? Not in year 11 either? Whaa? I thought methods was a req for spec.
-
it is assumed, not a req
-
Yeah, defs. It will be hilarious.
@ Taigastyle..
You're doing spec, but no methods? Not in year 11 either? Whaa? I thought methods was a req for spec.
Yep, it isn't a prereq:
"Specialist Mathematics Units 3 and 4 are normally taken in conjunction with Mathematical Methods (CAS) Units 3 and 4, and the areas of study extend and develop material from Mathematical Methods (CAS) Units 3 and 4"
Basically no 3/4s require 1/2s...(that i can think of)
-
Yeah man, it was the starter for most of us :P Math and science is the only thing i believe in now.
Cough
ahah agreed
i learned what a lumberjack was.
rs was so good for its prime .. actauly loged in yesterday to look around .. i dont really like what theyve done.
but i think .. like i said before .. this is year 12 .. no time for gaming lol
study hard
then chill the eff out at the end of the year :D
-
Yeah, defs. It will be hilarious.

Yeah, you don't have to do any 1/2s at all. Only requirement is three units of english, so just do 2 english 3/4s and then another 6 3/4s and you're set. Oh, and no subject requires its 1/2 with VCAA..
-

another six 3/4s?
or another four 3/4s... may be a little easier to manage..
-
Well you need at least 16 units, so if they're all 3/4s then you need 8. That's all I was saying.

I used to play a decent bit of Nintendo Wii in year 9 and before, especially in the holidays... now in year 10 I think I've played like less than 10 hours this entire year altogether probably. Barely touched it :P

i was an absolute scape-fiend throughout year 10 and most of year 11. played like 7 hours a weekday, and like 25 on the weekend!
SO NERD!
I'll admit getting that fishing skillcape filled me with an immense sense of achievement though :D
I was also pretty heavy into WoW in year 11. that addiction resulted in me getting like straight C's.
Something clicked at the start of this year though. I just stopped.
Completely turned my mind around on just about everything.
-
How fast do you do 100m on track?

im playing under 18's falcons ( state equivalent) and im only 16.
so give it a few years . and hopefully i might be better ...
i only intend on afl being a hobby .. but i guess if i dont get into med/pharm/dent .. i might do bio med .. and train really hard . in case i finally reach that level :D
see where it takes me
