| Fly The Copter | |
|
| A simple little game, yet infuriatingly addictive. I won't post my high score here, as it is slightly embarassing... (2 comments...) | |

| BBC's Test The Nation | |
|
| On Saturday night, 70,000 people joined in the BBC's IQ test. Leaving aside arguments about whether IQ really is a measure of intelligence and about the statistical significance of these results, there are some quite fun findings. Particularly satisfying (for those that are satisfied by that kind of thing) is the high incidence of intelligent people in Cambridge. As a subset of that, how intelligent is your average First And Third rower? The test is still there, so let's find out. For the record, it reckons my IQ is 130... | |

| Lycos Fight Club | |
|
A two-player fighting game.
"Lycos Fight Club is your break from the monotony of everyday life, your chance to thrash your friends in an online feast of punches, kicks, blocks and special moves.
Personalize your bout with a victory chant and, as the victor, deal that final killer blow with a well-timed spirit-breaking insult." | |

| Maybe out of place on 1&3, but as we mourn the passing of the balloon from BBC 1, here are the BBC 2 logos... | |

| Bumps fines | |
|
Inspired by the recent achievement of a week's racing without any penalties, this spreadsheet takes a look at the fines handed out by CUCBC over the last ten sets of bumps (Mays 97 - Lents 02 inclusive).
At just 5.17quid [Martin - why does this message board reject the pound symbol?] for each of our 88 crews, 1st & 3rd are one of the best-behaved clubs on the river. True to form, Downing are 33rd out of 34.
A few notes:
1) Due to limited data, the fines for Lents 98 cannot currently be attributed to particular crews within a club, and hence are shown here spread evenly across the days and with a gender split in proportion to the number of crews racing within that club.
2) Where a fine is payable by a club rather than a crew (e.g. failure to provide marshal), it has been split by gender according to number of crews.
3) Amazingly, our 58 May crews have never been fined on a Wednesday. (15 comments...) | |
