Title: <3 Newby++
Post by: iago on November 01, 2005, 07:40:04 pm
I was actually on AIM for awhile on Saturday night, and got some advice from Newby:

Quote
(01:01:59) iago: And I realized I fucked up something really simple on my last homework
(01:02:02) iago: But there is a question there
(01:02:12) iago: I got a constant wrong, which will cause the program to not run
(01:02:26) iago: But I don't think the prof is going to test run the program, so he probably won't notice
(01:02:31) James: Haha.
(01:02:31) iago: But if he does, then he'll know the program doesn't work
(01:02:41) iago: So the question is, do I email him, tell him what I did, and risk alerting him that I screwed up?
(01:02:49) James: Oh.
(01:02:52) James: Well, e-mail him!
(01:02:58) iago: :-/
(01:03:00) James: It's being honest.
(01:03:00) James: :/
(01:03:07) iago: Haha, honesty sucks if I lose marks
(01:03:09) James: Haha.
(01:03:13) James: It's one assignment.
(01:03:17) James: It won't brutally rape you.
(01:03:20) James: Plus, if he tests it, you're fucked.
(01:03:28) iago: Haha yeah
[.....]
(01:07:53) iago: I just emailed teacher
(01:07:57) iago: If he kills me, you're dead :D
(01:07:58) James: Haha!
(01:08:00) James: :D

Well, I got it back today.  On it, it said "Unless I missed something (it's late), TIMER_START is too big".  He was going to take off a couple marks for it.  Then it was crossed out, and I got the marks back. 

To summarize, he (Newby) saved my ass :)

I don't know why you wouldn't tell him, thats what happens in my school other then on tests.

Because I wouldn't want him to notice that I'd screwed up, which I didn't think he would.  However, he did.

... We'd get like... "So?" from our teachers "It's not what you put on the paper"

My teachers are the exact opposite.  In fact, just last week I told my calc teacher I didn't understand jack on the test (I missed some class and only got like... the last bit of the lessons), and he was like "OK, I'll just not average it in then".  God I love my school.

My teachers would give me a speech about how I suck at life then make me take the test. I should move to canada.

Warrior, it's universal for you: everyone knows you suck at life.
