I thought that only worked with certain spells.

And more expensive. Where'd you get the money as a level 2 character?

Its a unique power, not an item

Yeah, those 1000th post markers are tough. You think they should be better than the rest, but then you realize no one cares...

I'm pretty sure that nobody cares. I suppose you have to have more than 28,000 .

Sometimes they take notice if you have been posting particularly quickly. I just had someone tell me he wouldn't have to worry about my posting speed in a PbP because he did the math on my Feb 21st join date...

That's, indeed, astonishing . What are you doing at MIT, if you don't mind that I ask?

Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. More particularly, for the moment in between posts I just completed the preliminaries to building my own (virtual) Beta assembly code processor. When its done, it should be able to fully compute arithmetic operations using the ALU I made, as well as all the other fun stuff (loading values, jumping around through the stack, etc). If I had my druthers (and I don't until I complete these prereqs) I would be doing some more work in AI, perhaps continuing my work over last summer as a faculty member at the University of Maryland, where I researched abductive inference models for diagnostic problem solving.

Got through all that? OK, here's the summary: Nothing much. Just posting on ENWorld, how 'bout you?

Sounds interesting, and better, you sound interested . I haven't heard yet that faculty members spend money to go to MIT, but I'm not really familiar with the American system.

Me? Just doing some photosynthesis stuff at ASU .

I'm a student here full-time, so I was only a temporary faculty member there during the summer semester at UMCP (when classes were already over at MIT). It was still fun though because I have friends who are undergrads at that school. So I got to say, "Hey Bob, I'm a faculty member now at your school."

Sounds cool ! How does this work, though? How do you become a temporary faculty member at a university? I really don't have any idea how this works, as I'm from Europe .
