CT-Art muddles the careful plan

It seems I don't understand how CT-Art works! As I was working through the testing last night, I somehow got the thing out of my normal testing regimen. I was intending to do a fixed number of problems from Level 20, where I’m currently focused. As the program doesn’t give you much indication how far along you are, I just keep banging away at problems until it finally says I’m done. These problems seemed a lot harder than what I had been used to, but I put it down to being tired and soldiered on. After what seemed like forever, I finally got suspicious and ended the test. Much to my amazement, I found I had done nearly double the number of problems I was planning on, with many of them from higher levels. No wonder they seemed harder!

Anyway, I’ve decided to simply get back on track in Level 20 and ignore the whole thing for now. I don’t know how to reset CT-Art to show me the higher level problems again, and I guess I don’t care at this point.

I am a Christian...I love science fiction and fantasy...and I played D&D and didn't die. I play Ultima Online now. It sort of reminds me of the D&D when I was a kid. Do you read George RR Martin??? Anyway...I'm Rebecca...nice to meet you. I am Seth's sister's best friend.

Hi Rebecca, thanks for stopping by! I haven't been very active in the whole online gaming scene. I seems to be dominated by folks with too much time on their hands. Chess seems to be something of an exception.

I haven't read George RR Martin's books before now, but I just picked up a copy of the first book in the Song of Fire & Ice series. I'm about 50 pages into it. Looks interesting so far!

Another one I have on the go is John Scalzi's "Old Man's War." It was on the SciFi Essentials list a year or so back.
