PTS University for August 2013
« on: July 31, 2013, 05:27 PM »




Welcome to our new donation game.  The jail game was a real success and will be back again.  We just thought we would have some fun with a new game to keep the momentum going. 

Snoopy06 is the Registrar, drypen is the Councilor, and I am the Dean.    It would be fun if we could have a couple of you volunteer to be professors.  We know there are some of you that love to chat and you would make great professors. 

 Instructions for The PTS University:

In this  game you can either pay your own way or ask for grants and scholarships from others.  Donations unless specified, will be divided up just like the jail game.

Please either post here or pm Snoopy to let her know you are registering.  It would be fun if you can find an avatar or book picture and change your avatar so that it is book/university related.  Tell us in a message what your dream/fantasy course is.  You can make it something fun.  Shopping, wine tasting, learning to be a couch potato are just a few examples.  The first ten dollars you raise will go towards a class and book.

The next categories are all five dollars.  You can find a Dorm, Join a Sorority/Fraternity/Book Club, have a Party, and then Graduation. 
In the Book Club, we ask that you find a book to rate, give us a very brief description and rate it 1-5 stars.  Yes this is work, but there are term papers in University.   :D

  The first ten people to register will have an advantage so register early.   :-*

(I will be going to school too, between Snoopy and Drypen, I have to learn the intimidating spreadsheet program Excel.)

Class List:

Bozana - Sigtags
Liexo - Mythology
Shadowmaster13 - Excel
CJ57(Chris)Graphics (more specifics to follow)

Installing Paint Shop Pro x5, but Saturday I'm going to Italy... no computer, no internet, just my new kindle full with books >:D >:D
I'll stay 9 days, hopefully I'll see Rome this time  :laugh: >:D
I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best. I don't like pressing thanks on any post I'm special that way.

I'm sorry I have been absent from school and it looks like I will be very busy still for the next few days.  I am still cleaning up from our basement flood, sorting out the damage and carrying things upstairs.  It is a whole lot of work doing it alone and I am exhausted.

Hi,

I'll be teaching Excel, I'm working from Excel 2007, so you will have to as well. The layout of 2003 is a) so longer ago I no longer know all the tricks and b) too different to do both.

We will be going through how to use the basics up to formulas and some specifics on the formulas which you will find useful. I hope to leave you with the confidence to try things yourself.

I have to give everyone a sincere apology.  The flood we had last month in our basement has left me with one very big headache, a very sore back and serious asthma issues.  It is a long story but our whole finished basement is now a ruined mess.  My husband is disabled and can't make it downstairs to even see the damage, let alone help clean things up.  So many houses in our city were flooded, it has been really difficult to find help.  Our basement was packed with things that all needed to be sorted and a lot pitched.  It is coming along and we hope to get contracting help starting this week or next.   My computer time has been curtailed as it was important to get out as much as possible.  I have dragged up about 80% of the things so the end is in sight.  It is times like this, I wish I had kids or siblings to help.  Renovations will start soon, but I don't really need to be involved much with that end so you should see me active again soon.  I have missed you all.

Hi,
Well despite my week conspiring it looks like I should be able to finish the first lesson for Excel by tonight. It's going to be a video (with a rough transcription for those who don't understand my accent or spoken English as quickly as needed).

Might take a little longer because I've had some travel come up unexpectedly, but in the next few days, for sure. (fingers crossed).

Finished the first lesson. It's in a torrent, which has the .torrent file zipped and attached to the post. I am open to any suggestions on how to share the video.
