Mid Terms

A great part of WPI is that even on the worst of days, the most mid terms you can have is 3. Chances are that one of your classes doesn't have a mid-term test, so having a mid term yesterday and another today is fairly common. I have a final today in IMGD 20XX(the board game class), which I am not very worried about. This class turned out to be more work than I had suspected, though--we need a working rough draft of a board game by the 26th of November. My idea is awesome, though.
So not too many people know about the Nez Perce Trail, which was a group of Native Americans evading the US army and moving towards Canada, only to be stopped a mere 30 miles from the border. The game is some sort of racing game, with one player attempting to use superior numbers to trap another before the second reaches Canada. It should be very fun, assuming it is properly balanced, which will probably be harder than it seems...and it seems incredibly hard to do.
