I think it means the server has now officially broken under an unintentional denial of service attack, lol.

It's 45 minutes for MUGSI. SOLAR has it's own time limit which is also 45 minutes.

That picture isn't far from reality guys!!!!!!!!!! =P

GOD I hope I get into Ontario Veterinary College next fall. I'm done with this SOLAR/MUGSI business, three years of this is MORE THAN ENOUGH for me .. we don't need a fourth attempt at this ..

.. such a gong show ..

But of course I can't get in next fall if I literally have no courses to take, despite my best efforts. It's like a recurring cycle .. MUGSI and SOLAR don't let you in so you can't do what you want with yourself in the future .. and then you just have to keep going back to it, as much as you hate it, year after year, until finally one year you luck out and finally get the courses you need, and can finally escape this place!

It's like that, the lab and tutorial is most likely EOW, so it'll alternate every week in the same timeslot.

here's a solution for all the geniuses in charge of the insanity that is SOLAR
for God's sake, make a waiting list queue thing for SOLAR
so if it's full, it tells after how many people your number will come and then it refreshes automatically to allow you to do the damned thing

Yeah, don't be surprised by that. Last year, I asked some admin people about getting different lab/tutorial sections, but it's not possible.

That's too sophisticated. Where would the fun be in that?

Did the families of those hardcore gamers that died of extended amounts of play sue and win? If not then chances are you'd lose.
