    Time is out by 7 mins.

    I synchronised the system clock a few weeks ago - evidently there is some sort of 'drifting' going on. I'll look into it this weekend.

    HSC exam marks

    No, marks aren't swapped around, you don't get anyone else's marks. People use those words to describe what happens but it can be misleading. Your exam mark is always your own exam mark. The assessment marks of the whole class are adjusted depending on how the class performs on the exam...

    Forum upgrade at midnight tonight

    The tag only supports one line of symbols. If you delete all of the line breaks: \begin{pmatrix}9 & 13 & -4 & 2\\0 & -4 & -2 & -2\\3 & 3 & 0 & 0 \\-3 & -3 & -2 & -2...

    This forum

    Yes, I just realised that was happening about 10 minutes ago. :) Fortunately, they can't read the actual threads. I'll fix it when I get home tonight.

    Petitions for disclosure of marks

    Yes and yes - exactly like that. I would post up sample letters and sample requests for review, people could just fill in their details, print and send. Yes you can also send a letter, you would just be requesting marks for only two courses. You could then send another after you finish the...

    Petitions for disclosure of marks

    Sorry Namu, I have been super busy trying to fix other things around the site. However these things are always turning over in the back of my mind :) and I think I have come up with a better way of mustering an army. It goes a little something like this. We encourage people to apply for their...

    Forum upgrade at midnight tonight

    I like this idea, will look into it on the weekend. This sort of aesthetic change is relatively easy to make - the time consuming bit is figuring out exactly what the change should be, and then trying it out. If you have an idea (e.g. HTML/CSS style suggestions) let me know. Some sort of...

    Schroe - yes, I suppose here is as good a place as any. The priority right now is server optimisation, but I am happy to consider features that are relatively quick and painless to implement.

    2009 Main Round cut-offs

    What happened this afternoon? A document was inadvertently published which contained UAI cut-offs for some university courses. It was reproduced on this website by some of our members. Rafy closed the thread and removed the links to the cut-offs PDF on my request. I was contacted by...

    What I thought was going to be a routine kernel upgrade ended up failing and then had to be fixed. Very frustrating.

    Extension 2 Maths

    Yes. Enter marks out of 100 for Extension 1 and Extension 2 for a total of four units.

    Forum upgrade at midnight tonight

    There is no point in keeping a database of six years worth of threads if we want to hide them away from people - there's a lot of useful information buried within those threads. Perhaps a better solution might be to find a way to automatically close really old threads? There are sometimes...

    As a temporary measure until I have time to setup a proper LaTeX interface, you can use the [ maths ] tag (without spaces). For example: [ maths ]\int_{1}^{2} x^{2} - 1[ /maths ] produces: \int_{1}^{2} x^{2} - 1 In the meantime you can use this equation editor to figure out how to write...

    You need to extract the movie code from the URL; don't just paste the whole thing. I am sure I don't need to say this, but if this code gets abused it'll go away. No girls with tubs or cups etc. Do not abuse!

    Done. Thanks very much for this. Will try to fix tonight.

    A few of the features we used to have were necessarily lost because of the scale of the upgrade - but they'll come back. Including gold rep.
