Didn't they work out that the titanosaur they found wasn't even fully grown too, so it could have grown larger than other specimens regardless however unrealistic that may have been.

Also for the 100hp damage thing, it isn't hard to make a playertype that has 5hp if you wanted 1 hit kill in the gamemode.

I'm such a cunt.

OT: I feel for you OP, know what it's like to break a phone to a barely useable state. At least you have a spare.

Keep mowing the lawn, I do it for my parents and I could use the extra exercise every so often (because we have a push mower) but you could also do something like a paper round to get more income.

Well, that's because of point scaling. For the purposes of this conversation it's been an unmentioned understanding that each question is 1 point, so for those tests we'd call it a x/25 even though it goes into the grade book as a 100 point test.
Ah. I was talking on terms of percentage rather than actual questions. Even then it is still perfectly normal to answer less than 30 questions wrong dependent on difficulty. When I've done small in class memory tests where there are 10 questions, its acceptable in my opinion to get 3 or so wrong.

70/100 actually seems even worse. I could see getting 3 questions wrong on a 10 question test because of mistakes.. but getting thirty questions wrong seems like you really don't know the content.
The thing with a 100 mark test is that there aren't even 100 questions. At best between 20 or 30. Especially with music tests.

70% is 7 out of 10 on a test.
self explanatory
But also 70/100
A music theory exam pass is 62/100 iirc, merit at 80 and distinction at 95.

first day at secondary school?
it was alright
No way! I'm in year 11 now. Hopefully you aren't the stereotype of the typical year 7 (aka annoying little stuff that thinks they rule the world).

No offense, but 70 is awful and it is barely passing. I think that you may have to talk to your mom about how hard school and academics are for you, if it causes that much stress and you cant get your grades pushed up. There is a chance that you may have some sort of learning disability, which is very common in many, many people.
No offense, but what you just said is pretty much a load of stuff. It's like saying "sorry, but you're a tard because you got 70%, oh and you have a learning disability too" whereas in fact, 70% iirc is easily a pass and also close to if not the average percentage. I'm in a position (schoolwise) similar to OP and struggle to achieve grades expected of me without pouring even more hours into revision, and as a result of stress still end up getting a similar result. I have spoken to people I know about this and allowed my stress levels to go down, but I dread to think how I could end up thinking where I want to go in life. I do have a little senioritis which I'm suppressing which affected me a huge amount last year and I scraped through and nearly forgeted up big time.

Bloody tiring, I was suprised to find they had massively expanded the dining hall and made it look like a conservatory cafe.

Diving?

And no, technical fouls result in indirect kicks, physical fouls result in direct kicks.

In my league, slide tackling, effective or not, is a no no.
The official term for diving being simulation (aka making it look like the defender dumped you on your ass but in reality barely touched you).

Slide tackling isn't an infraction if done right, I've seen some fantastic players strip the ball completely and cleanly from the opposition with a slide tackle. It's only an infraction if the studs are turned up in an attempt to hurt the opposing player.

Tell me your stance on diving, ref in training.
Does slide tackling count as a direct or indirect, btw?
Technical fouls always result in direct freekicks unless they happen inside the penalty area. If the attacking player is fouled here it is a penalty.
