its out of stock at the moment though, so you’ll have to make your own 😛

It’s not COBOL, therefore it’s not real programming.

7-13!

I expect much more from my kids by that age – they should at least be writing their own linux kernels…

The youth of today! Tssh.

Great idea. Shame it’s out of stock.

PARENTAL ADVISORY – Contains goto statements

They would do one about databases but you’d need more than one table to play properly 😉

igmc

and a nice view

Ooh, database jokes. Can I JOIN or is it just for the SELECT few ?

lets not have a row about it…

I C what you did there.

OK, I’ll DROP it

….and by the time you finish the game, the user no longer needs it, or has found a ‘neat way’ of doing it in Excel than only he understands….

great jokes btw 🙂

I’d do a database joke but I don’t feel I can TOP any on here.

[Note: SQL server only, this isn’t not an Oracle compatible joke]

I’m switching to another thread, too much word play here to byte off.

Time for your injection

How many bits in the box?

Race down the mountain by thinking like a programmer

😀 😀

Will there be a trail centre version too?

To be realistic the game should include :
– A Powerpoint presentation showing how completing the game will increase company revenue by over 600%
– An incomprehensible and contradictory 300 page requirements statement
– An architectural diagram showing the major components of the game and how they interact
– A Gantt chart showing that the game won’t be completed until August 2015

ooo I spot a ‘goto’ statement – bad board game, bad, bad!!

Surely they’ve excluded 90% of their market by making it 2+ players!?
