Agreed. Don't want to tempt fate/count chickens before the hatch and all that....

Unless you've been lucky enough to get an EE offer lol

Hehe, it's the sensible thing to do!

All I'm saying is that I'm studying history. I like to be retain a little bit of (anonymity/mystique/delete as appropriate) on TSR, so all going well, in Fresher's Week, you shall find out not only my name and my college, but also my gender and a lot of other basic information! Bwahaha (my real name is not the one on my profile)!

So yes... if there's one thing to be excited about, it's finding out the identity of Chess Piece Face!
