Dear all tall, 21 year old Catz students who have just finished finals,
I realise you are now likely to be under scrutiny. I’m not sure whether or not I should be apologising. On the one hand it must be annoying for people to be considering your personal affairs but at the same time, given how many offers I’ve had, if you fit the description you might well get some extra male attention, which you may benefit from.

Watch out, there's a man-eater on the prowl.
Seriously though, you are from Catz. Who are you? That, I think, is the question of the hour.
Hmm. Any fellow Catz students have any guesses? I think I may take a page from Sam Spade's book and undertake a bit of old-fashioned sleuthing; or more likely, just idly wonder.
Haha. Oh well.
Go on Marvin, I'm at Catz too, let's get together and figure this out...Don't have any guesses tho. Hm. Maybe you should get a date with her, or is this too obvious?
Yes, let's! Are you in earnest? Haha. Am I? I don't have any guesses either.
As for the date, though I e-mailed her, I elicited no interest. Granted, I did say up front I wasn't really interested in being a contestant (which is true). More to the point, since she knows now I just want to know her identity, she's definitely not going to go for it.
I would, however, like to meet her; then, of course, ply her with liquor and poetry. Haha, only joking.
She is a character though, I think. And characters are always interesting; at least to me.
guys... marvin especially, she is 5'7.. claims a 8.5 on hot or not, finished finals whatever it was ago.. at ur college, has spent last 3 years in library.. cant it really be that difficult to guess...
speaking from peters point of view.. well primarily there are only on average about 2 years per year who could get a 8.5 (yeah we're unlucky), and even the most amateur sleuth should be able to work out who she is!!
Really -- ? Well, there is one little hitch, it seems. I'm a visiting student so I really have no familiarity with the student body. Haha, no pun intended. Anyway, since you seem in the know, babe magnet, perhaps you could solve the riddle for me and ar? We'd be much obliged, I'm sure.
I don't believe Peter's or any other college only has 2 people who can get a hot or not score of 8.5. Unless it has changed since I was on hot or not in my youth, the scores on that site aren't calculated directly from the votes given, rather from ranking scores relative to the other people on the site, and so 8.5 corresponds to being on the 85th percentile- top 15%. And a well posed photo can work wonders. So in summary, while 8.5 is a very respectable score, it does not necessarily mean that we are looking for a potential winner of FHM's High Street Honeys.
I still want to know how they figured out that you're from Catz!
Unless, of course, you live in college and use the internet from there, in which case it would be far too easy to figure it out from your ip.
Totally agree d... 8.5 is hardly a fabulous score on hot or not.. comparable to a 2.2 in physics finals! I got a 9.7 on it which proves probably that it is all about a good photo, sunglasses and not being butt ugly..
however, still stand by the fact that peters doesnt have more than 2 people with 8.5.. we are that uuggly!!! x
1. I am slightly disconcerted by the in-depth knowledge some of you have about hotornot. But never mind.
2. Marvin, I've been at Catz longer so I could help in ruling ppl out, and frankly, I can't think of any girls who are 5'7 and do subjects that finished at least a week ago - tho of course if they have been in the library for 3 years they wouldn't exactly be v visible, would they?! This does make me inclined to think there is something hoaxy going on.
3. T: this is a blogspot blog, hosted in the US - how can you trace the IP?
Babe magnet...I can't believe you use the same name on here as you do on Oxford Romance - you really do have a high opinion of yourself!
lol, a fair point. My "knowledge" of hotornot was actually supposition based on what my score was compared to how people had voted for me, back when i was about 16. Being a very sad man, I have now read their faq and it says:
18. My rating and my votes don't seem to match. What's wrong?
Official HOT or NOT scores are normalized to account for things such as the fact that different people have different voting styles. For instance, some people, for reasons unknown to us, only vote 1-5. Should a 5 from these people count as a 5?
Many standard scoring systems use normalization techniques, including the Olympics and the tests people take to get into college in the US. We still give you the chart, which represents raw data, just for fun.
So in fact what I said before was less knowledge, and more bollocks. Nice to know people are willing to believe me so blindly, however :)
haha.. yeah, am terribly arrogant... take oxro terribly seriously!! hehe
but also, talk to virgin student on oxro sometimes.. so keeping to same name for sake of simplicity and for her benefit only bien sur..
also.. i think it would be quite nice if you used ur oxro name, rather than hiding behind anonymous..
virginstudent appears to use the same name on both oxro and here... bizarre, i can see a trend developing.. but it may just be that i have been looking at too many stochastic models... argh, must finish finals soon!!!
OBS3?
S19... Financial physics option.. whats obs3?
Some Stochastic modelling Maths option that I don't do: forgot there were people even worse off than mathematicians when it comes to late finals!
hahah.. all sympathy is more than well... even encouraged...
managed a stunning 4% on my mock paper a few days ago.. its got that bad!! start wondering what ive been doing for the past 2 years!!!
Oh come on! No discussing finals; or even anything remotely academic. We must speak of VS at all times, chanting matins and the like. God, I need to stop procrastinating.
Has VS taken the day off from her pursuit? Hmm...
You almost managed 12 hours without commenting there marvin. Almost, but not quite. You should be very proud.
Plugging VS into the black scholes equation... with her 'quest' as a random walk... = she shags some rather good looking player guy.. who then never speaks to her again, and who did it solely to 'win' the competition... i think she needs to sit down with marvin, who heads her fan club.. and vet her options more carefully!
No wonder you got 4% if your version of B-S has terms representing players and shags! Bloody physicists.
The question is, did perform your calculation in the risk-neutral world?
Crap, I'm at it again. Sorry Marvin.
Haha, that's quite alright D. We might as well make some pretense of relating this to our studies.
Plus, before you know it, the term will be completely over and we can all join the land of the living again. In the meantime, a support group may be in order.
Oh, and thank you babe magnet for your vote of confidence. Did you try your luck with VS? Your swaggering confidence and good looks might be what it takes. Not that I think you're a good looking man, for as Seinfeld astutely notes, no man can call another man good looking without being, well, you know. Not that there's anything wrong with that. Haha.
I can't believe I couldn't even make it twelve hours! Shameful; I need help.
haha.. 12 hours.. god, u do need help!!
thanx for vote of confidence marvin... did send a note to VS on oxro, along the usual lines of hey, intrigued about ur quest and all.. got a few answers, but i think she sensed i was more intrigued rather than wanting to participate and no date ensued.. gutting! not my usual scene must admit! (tho doubt its anyones usual scene)...
quite enjoyed the matchmeifyoucan, although wasnt terribly successful at lovematching, so who knows, may get given a coffee interrogation slot with VS as break from bloody finals! x
The message is directed at FEMALE 21 year old Catz finalists, apologies for not making that clear.
