Okay. Here are the lessons:
1. Take a DG
2. Perform the Straight Down Technique as created by Freespace
3. Make sure you don't survive..
4. .. so our position as Instructor Astronauts is never threatened :)

Thanks McBrain. I think the Krytom and Atom site would benefit from a counter.


Are you sure? It might just suggest how little people visit it. Do we really want to know?

Anyway. This week has now officially been declared my ultimate success week. Not only did I get a scholarship, I also
scored distinction on my grade 5 Tuba exam!!!!!!!!! 8o
There are three ways to pass. In accending order they are: Pass, Pass with merit, Pass with distinction.
I apparently scored 30/30 on one of the pieces and got high scores on the others which got me high marks, despite
the fact that I did not do so well on the scales (scales = up and down a group of notes).

*Krytom gets growing pains in his head because it's getting really big*
*Krytom now thinks that it is not entirely his fault, that it is in-fact the examiner's*

5 down, 3 to go. :)

Wahey, nice going Krytom!!
Maybe me and you could do a duet one day - me on the organ and you on the tuba!!! :) :)

Ooooooooooooohhhhhhhhh, ORGAN! 8o Cool 8)
Anyone ever heard of a Tuba and Organ Duet piece? :) There are Tuba and piano pieces which you could play on the
organ. How good (or how bad for all you pesimists out there) are you on the organ? From what I know they are
definately harder to play than piano, with the extra keyboards and the different sound modes you get on them.
But seriously, getting together to do a duet won't be happening any time soon.

BTW: My grandpa plays the organ :)

There is a piece for tuba and organ (well, brass band & organ) which is my dad's arrangement of CS Lang's Tuba
Tune in D which I played in my first ever big concert

Brenton: perhaps you could post a recording of one of your perfomances like Krytom did.

I think we should find a game we all have / could download and play it multiplayer. That would be really cool.  But
what game?

Freelancer or Rise of Nation or Call of Duty would be my suggestions, but either way, I won't be able to join in :(

For me it would be impossible, first I don't have much time
and second my wish if ever would be to make a game like WWIIonline.
But here you must use teamspeak and have live conversations
(already tried to type on keyboard while trying to fly a plane or
drive a tank ?) And I'm affraid my live english is undertrained.

As for me, I can make pretty good quick chats, like "go here" or "help me" but longer chats require me not being by
the action, and then I'm usually rushing to finish the sentence so I don't get found and killed. you'd see something
along the lines of this from me: "no fair you prick, we 're supposed tou be an  a tem" If nothing else, I have a
microphone.... and I'm sure we can understand spoken language no matter how broken it is. even I'm pretty good at
it.

I'm sure you've seen worse, but about time I'm got lots of it, (even though it's not enough!) but it's usually not
the same time that everybody else has. I'm free from like 2-5 for example, but everybody else seems to be free from
6-10. It's just life.
