Hello, I am in PST (BC, Canada). I'm assuming the game is running on AZ time because I believe that's where the PM lives...

 		time zoes
I'm in Toronto, eh! so EST along with more of the eastern seabord

The game may or may not start on Arizona time.. but i dun think we should make that assumption just yet. we dunno really if the PM is there or not. Wink might just be a Spppoooky, mysterious out in the middle of no where place, where strange things are bound to happen. Catalina is in fact out in the boonies of Arizona, approximately fifteen miles out of Tucson. ^_^; so i suppose we'll have to wait and see.

I was sure the game was supposed to start today, but i thought about it, and, registration is normally a week before school starts. Chances are it should start within the next week. sept 8 max. i believe.

 		NRU class start
according to the schedule on NRU, classes don't start until the 21st. So should be interesting the starting timeframe entails. Though Pre-Term Preparation begins on the 8th, so maybe we can hope to meet some protagonist NRU freshman at that time.

Ugh! you mean to tell me that there's a chance this game may not start until the 21st? Crying or Very sad ohh... that's so far away. I mean, that is if they have any intention on starting this thing on that particular day -_-

...Plus.. they said Summer 2003... if it starts on the 21st.. then that's Fall 2003 now isn't it?

 		If Pre-Term Preparation begins on the 8th, and the Term - sorry - SEMESTER - starts on the 21st...what on earth goes on in between? My "freshers week" barely lasted a full seven days...

...seems I was born an intellectual in the wrong country! Laughing

Ah, the Pre-Term... I remember it fondly...

My Pre-Term involved a large amount of alcohol consumption, spankings and streaking. Some evenings we sat around in large groups discussing how we were taught by our mothers at a young age what to do with bananas. We would also discuss what foods not to eat on dates, such as popsickles, corn dogs, tacos, and any food item that appeared "rolled". We would then drink more, toss in a few more spankings, a few pillow fights, some neked wresting, and would then settle down for a lovely game of Trivial Pursuit. Then we would all trade underwear, wish our boobs were bigger, and then do a lot of girly pushups, thinking that toning muscle would somehow lead to fat growth. We'd giggle and laugh, and take showers. Following that, we'd wander through the campus, giggling and laughing in strange underwear and wish that the male to female ratio wasn't 1:4 and that our roommates weren't man-hoggers who liked to string along 3 or 4 at a time. We'd then point and laugh at the geeky boys we'd pass, donning their attractive pleated denim shorts, birkenstock sandals (with socks), and a t-shirt that said "www.do-me.com". Ha. As if. Then we'd head back to our rooms and bring out the Twister....

At least that's how mine was. I'm sure the experience was similar for a lot of people Wink

Almost exactly, only sometimes we'd break to go cannonballing in a pool of jello shooters. Kinda cold in Northern Canada, but by the time you slurp your way to the surface you don't even feel it Very Happy
