Sort of. I've got em done for CAS but if I switch over to pursuing SOA then I still need MLC.

With your P&C experience, I think you'll have better luck casting a wide geographic net than looking at life/health companies.
I applied all over the damn place.

 

[slomo431]

I'm applying everywhere to everyone for all jobs requiring anywhere from 0-3 years of experience. I actually get a decent amount of HR people calling me, but no call backs when they find out about my exam struggles. I'm getting the feeling with so many candidates out there, my exam history pretty much is a career killer.

Hello everyone!

Never posted in this thread before, but I'm going to be back at U of I next week and want to try and start playing smash more regularly.

Who wants to play? :O

My cell is (708) 256 - 2074 so feel free to contact me about playing or whatever

 

[Battlecow]

What game(s) do you play?

 

[goolick]

Melee. Project M on occasion.

I've been looking for work myself, but I live in a very small town and as such, there's nothing.

Just thought I'd say that I accidentally went to the first page of posts and it took me reading about 20 posts to realize that it was years ago >_> Same people though

 

[TheWalkingThano]

I just got the not-so-sudden urge to pick melee back up. Any of you in or around Chicago? I live in Evanston now. I know Robin wants to play.

Edit: Should we change the title back to Actuarial Discussion?

 

[sirlaser]

Is this thread still about UIUC Smash?

 

[AOB]

UIUC Smash? What is this, 2008?

 

[bertbusdriver]

He's joking in case you're wondering. More relevant discussion once more of us get back on campus. I'll be back Saturday. Gotta get another tv though. I threw the other one out

Awesome. I'm thinking of joining the Champaign Smash League (if there is one).

 

[Ripple]

I move in tomorrow

 

[Robin60062]

Anyone around Northbrook? Like Jon said, I've been wanting to play...

 

[samsonites101]

Hey, just moved into Taft. Not sure what the smash scene here is like, but anybody wanna play?

 

[SuperMatt]

ill probably end up going back to school come january...things are too bleak right now

im looking at northwestern

 

[AOB]

You know what you'll be studying? I dunno if there are any "good" fields to try to get into right now.

 

[Dekuschrub]

CS is ridic right now

i'm hoping to be in chicago next year heheee

 

[bertbusdriver]

I'm down to smash tmw but I still don't have a tv bc i threw out the old one. I can bring a recording setup though

Cs is ridiculous. I'm strongly considering switching from electrical to computer engineering bc there are so many software jobs compared to hardware.

Ohhey I'm back too, rusty as ever. If you want a small tv, you can have my old one.

Smashing today would be superlative. At the moment, my setup is not set up though

CompE ftw~. I don't think anyone besides me at TI was CS -- but I was also one of the only people programming where I was..

I don't think a CS degree is valuable as much as all the web dev junk that overzealous CS majors do.

 

[sirlaser]

Is every smash player @ UIUC an engineer or doing a computer related major?

 

[Dew Rag]

^ No

I'm free this weekend aka Fri - Sat

Preferably not my place since I dont have a tube tv. thanks.

 

[TuxingtonIII]

My place is fine since I appear to be the only one who can.. lul. I don't have a tube anymore, but I don't get lag on my LCD (very very first thing I checked once I got it)

WE CAN PLAY BRAWLOMFGROFLSAUCE. jk, I have melee too.

 

[Dew Rag]

gtfo with brawl

PM me with ur number.

thanks

 

[bertbusdriver]

I can host too. I got my cube out of storage and Tim gave me his tv

 

[sirlaser]

What about that tournament in the Union 7-10pm on the 24th?

 

[TuxingtonIII]

What about that tournament in the Union 7-10pm on the 24th?

What is this?? If it's a Brawl tourney, then there will need to be 3 games per match so that you can switch off while the lag of the other games is still going through. What kind of event is on a wednesday anyway *insert excuse about popular show being on, but I haven't had cable in so long, I don't remember what's on*

btw, my number is 865.405.4365. That's right, crank callers, come and get me!

 

[Dew Rag]

sorry, I'm working during that time and if it is brawl I'll skip it anyways.

 

[bertbusdriver]

i got no class tmw. anytime tmw or tonight i can smash

 

[Invadergirjr]

I dont post much here (my last post was last year?) but I'm interested in playing some games. I'm only good at brawl now, but im willing to play some melee, or some other fighting games for that matter.

I actually stopped by that tournment a good 2-3 hours after it started. Seemed like there is a good amount of interest in the game. But I didnt get to play that day, so I was kinda being a douche...

I guess I'm free tonight; idk about tomorrow or the weekends. Who do I contact? Where do people meet?

I PMd you my number. We usually just meet at someone's apartment/dorm, with basically no regularity whatsoever. We play melee mostly, some play 64, very few play brawl.

If anyone's interested maybe we could get RSO status again so we could get a room to meet in sometimes and get funding for stuff? If one of the old-timers (deku, R twins?, AOB, durand) could tell me about the process and any benefits, I'd really appreciate it. Michigan has a smash club and we don't

 

[bertbusdriver]

i just sent a text or PM with my number to everyone on this thread who i believe to be on campus and haven't played before regarding an upcoming smash session. Let me know if I missed anyone. I got sirlaser, ripple, goolick, invader, and samsonite. I have 2 setups but only one tv. If someone could bring a second tv that'd be awesome.

 

[bertbusdriver]

tmw seems to work better for everyone so let's do that instead.

\godmodetriplepost

 

[TuxingtonIII]

Sweeeet. I'm in.

If there actually is a need, my 32" is just sitting in a corner.. so let me know if critical mass of one setup has been exceeded.

 

[Dew Rag]

To start a club, all you need is technically 2 people. 1 guy to be president and another guy to be treasurer. You can add other titles if you want. There's a sheet I think that is printable at the RSO website for people to register their club and have people sign it. The pres and treas. have to attend mandatory meetings about how to manage money and clubs and etc... something like that.

Is there going to be smash today? sent me a text pl0x.

 

[SuperMatt]

we had the club going but never used it for anything

im not sure it would help you get funding at all but getting a room might be possible it was kind of unclear what the possibilities were

 

[bertbusdriver]

6:30 at my place. 201 E healey # 31. It's at 2nd and healey. Still don't have a second tv. Don't bring yours if its flat screen tho because i already have one of those in addition to the non-laggy tv

 

[TuxingtonIII]

If anyone's bored today, hit me up. 7:30 and I'm already out of things to do -__-

 

[bertbusdriver]

sorry tim, i'm kinda busy.
