Heh, point taken!

Most colleges have some kind of policy where you can move to a different dorm room to have more compatible room mates. Check your RA or campus housing dept.

I could do that, but (of course) there is a fee and no guarantee other roommates will be better. Yep I'm lazy and those are just excuses, but good ones nonetheless!

Besides, your current roommates will have to buckle down soon, or they'll just run out of spending money and flunk out of classes. I which case, you win anyway.

With this crowd, it's bound to happen.

Re: OT: Is this normal?
Renegade, if you are looking to get out of the dorms, I own a duplex in PG. I live in one side but my tenants are moving out at the end of the month. It's a 3 bedroom unit and we're not that far fromt the university. If you've got a couple others that want to split rent... problem solved.
My wife and I were hoping to get students for tenants anyway, perferably those who are studying and not the roommates you've currently got. We can talk about it on Monday when you get back to town if you're interested.

Re: OT: Is this normal?
The good part about living in res is how late I can get up and still make it to classes

Re: OT: Is this normal?
There were some people who did not live in residence but still lived on campus! One guy parked an old Volkswagen van in the parking lot and slept in there. I guess he used the washrooms and showers on campus. A couple of other guys had a home somewhere but stayed overnight a lot in the lab. They found an empty cubicle and kept food, clothes etc in the desk drawers, brought sleeping bags and slept on the floor. People could do this because we had 24 hour access to the lab.
I wouldn't want to do something like that except for the occasional all-nighter. I don't think I can get any real rest that way and I'll probably get sick after a week or two!

Club seals? No. For one thing, I don't live anywhere near an ocean
Bearclaw: Sounds interesting. Will talk to you about it Monday when I'm back in town (much easier in person than over a forum! )

Re: OT: Is this normal?
Renegade, Bearclaw: Are you sure? This is surely a recipie for disaster. Two SEIV players under one roof? Prepare to drop out of University, and quit your job. It's all over. Game Over, man, GAME OVER! *end crazy mode*
See, now THIS is why I like these boards. Makes me wish I could meet more of the folks here. You know, outside. Or in a pub.
P.S. Wait, is bearclaw a beta tester? Let me reiterate the crazy talk from before, only replace the $GAME string with SEV, instead of SEIV. Or (even worse) SEIV and SEV.

Re: OT: Is this normal?
I will remind you of the cautionary tale of the bloke who died after too many hours straight gaming.
So we have no seal clubing OR tea drinking. I'm worried about Renegade, next he'll be saying he doesn't own a lumberjack shirt or doesn't secretly wish to be a Mountie!
