Everyone was going on about how it goes so slowly because there are so many people logged on at once, but when i checked mine (at about 6am) it was working normal speed. I also remember going back in there at about 9am to see if it'd be heaps slow, and it wasn't-it was as fast as before.
No refreshing or reconnecting necessary.

Um... 96 upside-down is still 96 :p

(sorry to burst your bubble!)

However, seeing 99 and then realising it was 66 would be what you mean I think.


Am I a bitch?

I'd love to get an sms with my results. Easier to dis-regard them than if its in a letter. But are you sure this is real? Cause I'm sure we would have heard something official by now, letter or real BOS site anouncement or something... I know the papers talked about it, but I don't believe everything I read.
