That time again, uh?
I still remember when I set up this blog last year. Sapo Campus had just been introduced to us and I was eager to poke around its settings and obliterate their CSS stylesheets.
Well, first and foremost, I'm going to DeCA tomorrow invade a certain classroom at 11 am.
Which one?
It's a seekrit!
... no, actually, I forgot the classroom's number. Ahem.
I'm going to kidnap a couple of students from Prof. Óscar Mealha and force invite them to test my game demo. They'll also answer a quick questionnaire about the game. Don't worry, this should all be done before lunch time.
Now, a couple of updates from my side:
- Videojogos2010 was worth it. I was extremely nervous because this was my first conference, but I successfully went throught it even with some video technicalities (pfft, Macs.). My paper sparkled much interest from the audience to my surprise.
- The game demo was tested this week in TEFAA with my Greek coordinator Dra. Marina Papastergiou handling the tests and questionnaires. Because the students' affluence with the English language wasn't as advanced as ours, she accompanied them as a translator. But so far, so good, and I'm waiting on the results.
- We're entering October, the final countdown until the deadline for the submission of my dissertation. I want to have everything ready before 31st October/ 3rd November with enough time for my coordinator to review the final document before submission. The defense should occur in December.
If all goes well, you'll see me celebrating the end of a chapter in this Codebits'10.
- Because no Panic Rush season is complete without a couple of disasters, my not-so-faithful-anymore Toshiba P100-400 decided to die. Then I took it to the repair should and it revived. But the LCD screen has to be replaced. Again. This time the contrast and brightness settings were broken, black shades turned to red and white was made of blue stripes.
Note to self: don't buy 17' sized laptops, their screens crack way too easily.
I'm currently using my father's laptop to get some work done. All thesis material is safe and I kept the internal HD from my laptop in an appropriate enclosure. Yeah, the remaining photos from Greece are still inside it, and I'm not sure when will I have enough time to sort through thousands of photos to post in Sapo Campus.
- I was going to post some game screenshots right now, but I'll save those for the weekend + the video I did for the presentation in Videojogos2010.
Hasta!
