When having shots at goal in Daicos positions with mates, they would find it unbelievable and saying how i fluked those shots. 9/10 i would get them.

god damn, it's like some ancient scripture.

Lol, that's just the lighting. It's actually white.

How the **** can you read that?

Talent . I'm probably the only person that can read my writing at the best of times, so I'm used to having to decipher it.

And for the record, it wasn't for cheating. We were allowed a double-sided A4 sheet of paper for the final exam. That's what I used.

lol that is awesome

The craziest thing is that if he had of used landscape instead of portrait for that cheat sheet, he would have fit more into it.

That's insane.

 

[Simon_Nesbit]

I did something similar with one exam, we were allowed a single, double-sided a4 page, typed. I think I had about 12 pages of typing originally, before I changed the margins to 0.01mm, and the font size to 2. Fitted perfectly on two pages, but sadly couldn't read it easily, so took a magnifying glass in.

Spent more time trying to set it alight than actually answering the exam questions though.

Next year the exam rules stated notes must be in 12 point, times new roman, with standard margins, etc. Don't know why they changed that.

they could have just banned magnifying glasses as they're obviously a fire hazard

Well, I didn't end up using the entire space (I actually ran out of time; I started it at about 1am the night before the exam, and I still had one lecture to go), but it wouldn't have made that much difference anyway. There was very, very little space wasted between lines, so making the lines longer to reduce the overall number wouldn't have added that much space anyway.

Lol, yeah, I would have done that but the exam rules specifically stated that they had to be handwritten.

Close up (so you can see it's actually writing):

At first glance I thought that was a piece of toast with vegemite on it.

That's ****ing impressive.

Thank me later.

 

[Pumbi]

Can I thank you now? Was a pretty cool link.

 

[THRILLHO]

One of those things in that link reminded me of a great little trick. When you have a stiff neck use your thumbs to rub the back of your ears. Loosens your neck up a treat.

Flicking through the foxtel program guide faster than the speed of light yet still being able to recognise the names of shows I like.

You don't know all the channel numbers?
Or have a favourites system set up?

Poor form.

I didn't mean the actual program guide. Just the information box that tells you what else is on without having to change channel.

That's the theory behind cheat sheets, if you do them properly you barely have to look at them.

Yeah, in the end I didn't use it that much. I was able to double-check a lot of info though, which was handy.

Poor form.

I don't know anybody else who sets up the favourites. So whenever I'm over somewhere with Foxtel/Optus I'll set up my own favourites.

Good idea

I'm amazed at how few people use it. Makes it so much easier, don't have to look through all the other crap you don't watch.
