Now all your students will think hard work only turns you into a nerd.

My head is a weird shape and I hate my voice. I do think I gave some pretty choice advice though!

WELL I have a DDR Extreme machine on its way to my house. I am now an arcade and need an arcade name.
It'll eventually be turned into a Stepmania cabinet. Speaking of which, I just made a new stepfile last night since I want to start getting back into making charts now that I'll be able to actually play them. Try this one and let me know if you like it:
The word borough derives from common Germanic *burg, meaning fort: compare with bury (England), burgh (Scotland), Burg (Germany), borg (Scandinavia), burcht (Dutch) and the Germanic borrowing present in neighbouring Indo-european languages such as borgo (Italian), bourg (French), burgo (Spanish and Portuguese) and purg (Kajkavian). The incidence of these words as suffixes to place names (for example, Canterbury, Strasbourg, Luxembourg, Edinburgh, Hamburg, Gothenburg) usually indicates that they were once fortified settlements.
So Spergburg might be a better name. Plus it rhymes. We also need a name for The Blandford's arcade.

Well I knew what a burg was, didn't know if he meant something different with "berg." I didn't see the first two definitions of "sperg," just the last one when I looked which didn't make as much sense. I'm pretty spergy I guess!
