And that's something to be proud of?

The speed with which a spam thread is closed down is an indication of how annoying it is. Which means you made one of the least annoying spam threads.
or maybe the mods were drawn in by the power of spam.... drawn to the spammy side!
I think the mods were also curious as to how big a quote pyramid could get
eeeeeveyone loves quote pyramids :P
Once it reached 50 floors duki realized we wouldn't get bored of it any soon.
or maybe they planned to let it reach 50 from the very beginning...
in other news, I banged my head to the staircase railing when getting up after tying my shoelace... head still hurts...

I just spent 3 hours theorycrafting my formation for soccer/football. Holy balls. I'm tired.

I'm playing on a rec league, and we get 7 aside. You can think of our wide midfields as our strikers, but we don't really like playing through balls, so they position their playing isn't really strikerish. We're more about keeping possession and taking shots from the top of the box.

It's the first I've heard of 7-player standard. In that case I'd have placed the wide midfielders a little more ahead myself. Other than that, I can't imagine anyone using positioning drastically different from yours, except maybe 2 defenders and 1 forward.

The formation was easy to figure out, it was how to figure out subbing, and getting who to play what.
Our team consists of a bunch of experienced defenders, one experienced defensive centre midfield. The rest of our players aren't as strong as we are. But even though we're defenders, we can move the ball really well, keeping possession and creating scoring chances. So, I ended up sacrificing some of our defensive power by bringing one of the girls back to the back line, in exchange for some more offensive prowess.

And yeah, 7 aside is weird for me too.

They've entirely different, you should be able to o_o
That's the kind of thing I'd expect you to have decided in 11th grade.

you should have guessed by now that I like to put things off... i decided then to decide it now as it wouldn't matter much... and the issue arises because they're both very different and yet i like many things from both ( and despise a few from both too...)

I guess you could go with what you're good at. If you're good at programming and you can grasp abstract concepts easily then CSE is a piece of cake.
