Graduation Day

Souvik Tuesday, July 28, 2009 5 comments
I am now finally and undisputably Dr Souvik Mukherjee after being awarded my PhD scroll at a grand (and expensive) graduation ceremony at Nottingham's Royal Centre on 22nd July. Later on, in between the 'official' ceremony and my celebrations with close friends, I had a mini ceremony of my own, befitting the spirit of my research so far.

    Congratulations! I wonder what aide quests open up or how the plot will progress now you've finished the agonisingly long tutorial ;)

    Hopefully the unskippable graduation cutscene wasn't too boring :D

    Also, you might be interested in this game club, that's restarting next week; http://www.gamblinglambs.com/ - just occurred to me you're in Nottingham, hehe.

    Thanks folks! Jesper, good to hear from you. Have been following 'The Ludologist' quite keenly - congrats yourself on your new position.


    Andrew, the tutorial was indeed agonising and without any power-ups, it was a difficult and buggy journey. I did try pressing escape frantically but the cutscene was relentless. Then again, I've always had good words for the story-element and I guessone has to give in to necessity, at times ...

    the game club seems interesting, any chance of it being in the evenings? I survive the non-game world by doing a 9 to 5 IT job.

    The club is next Thursday evening, the website has details of times and place :) Might be worth popping along to at least the opening one to see how it is (I personally want to play Settlers of Catan there if someone brings it, heh).
