I got those adrenaline rushes too, but probably not for the same reason. my adrenaline is caused by the fact that the less time I spend on SOLAR the less chances there is for a server error or the server crashing. So I speed through everything I have to do XD

That's not all, there's another Solar thread from back in June that has a few hundred replies as well. If that doesn't open their eyes, man I just don't know.

I agree with the waiting list feature proposed way back in this thread. Just let everyone log in and be put on a waiting list based on their login time. When one person logs out the next person on the waiting list gets their time.

I think courses/tutorials etc should have waiting lists too. If a course or tutorial you're trying to get into is full you should be able to add yourself on the waiting list. If someone drops the first person on the waiting list should be notified and then they have the option to accept the spot if they still want it or give it up to the next person if it doesn't work for them.

These seem like such obvious and simple solutions though but with a system this crappy it's not shocking it doesn't come with such helpful features.

So there's no way about going around the no monday 8:30-11:30 labs for chem 1aa3 thing? That would totally screw up my schedule more than it is now :( DX

I must be lucky today. I got on around 11:30 and started trying to get into MUGSI. No luck using Maccess. I switched over to regular MUGSI about 5 minutes ago, got on, got onto SOLAR, made the one change I wanted to/am able to make and it's all good.

Thank you MUGSI/SOLAR gods!

Yep, I'm very well aware about how I'm wasting a beautiful day like this sitting with my eyes glued to the comp. I'm even eating my lunch while refreshing...

I had to leave to eat for a while... and it was most likely my undoing. :/

Only if they are EOW. SOLAR will automatically restrict your tutorial sections when you pick your lab sections.
