Well done :))

At 9:13pm on November 13, 2009, Mana said…: Yep I'm organising the Scottish leg of the game jam at gcal. We hosted the Jam earlier this year and it proved to be an extremely successful event. This year we're anticipating a greater turnout.

This years sponsors include Realtime Worlds and we're also hoping to get a couple of other sponsors on board.

If you could tell your students about the jam that would be great, registration is on a first come first serve basis

New Year coming ...

Summer has been a cumin in, and has now past. A new year heading up and birthday No52 at some stage, unless Jesus returns, the earth burns into flames or my late great aunt Betty in Vancouver leaves me her 1981 $1 Microsoft shares ...

What's the year gonna be like? We have got 40 new top-spec great graphics cards PCs for E113. As someone said: I don't believe it! We also have a bid in for revamping E106 as a studio space kinda like a cross between QWERTYs and the room upstairs from it.
