that is the problem with public school, they only teach it for the test, not to actually learn it. _I_ have actually competed in national competitions, plus going against a Japan team as well, look up Science Olympiad, you’ll see. ---

> [@Aiko\_Danuja](#): > > He said “by Christmas” multiple times, yet pretends he never did… The truly laughable bit is…he expects us to believe words some dev allegedly told him in April, yet he cannot remember _his own words_ from August, and/or he is even worse of a gaslighter than I thought. Yes…he quite definitely did say ‘by Christmas’, in fact did so at least twice. There comes a point where it is blatantly obvious that he is either the worst attempt at trolling in EVE history…or ‘needs help’, to put it politely. ---
