League results Rosedale Premiership Match day 7 ================================= Dummys - Fjortoft's Friends 0 : 0 Booked: --- ***Kutsche Table toppers Dummys were in full control of this one after having picked the right strategy, but Fjortoft's Friends got real lucky and stole a point. The Ages - Extreme 1 : 0 Penalties: 1 ***- Booked: --- ***Alonso Extreme missed a suspension and had a resulting weakened strategy. The Ages thus dominated the game, but needed a penalty to pull through a win. FC Asskickers - Blue Revolution 5 : 5 Scorers: Booker T. (29., 33., 62.), Sting (36., 61.) ***Kazuya (35., 61., 80.), Kenichi (25., 69.) Booked: Booker T., Chris Jericho, Mark Henry ***--- A very even game where all chances seemed to become goals. Although the draw was fair, the scoreline was rather ridiculous. Twin Peaks Owls - FC Mokum 1 : 1 Scorers: Lawrence Jacoby (38.) ***Marcellis (9.) Booked: --- ***Sneijder After picking a good game plan, the Bookhouse Boys really deserved to win this game. However, being inefficient, they got only one point. Mishima Zaibatsu - Famous Battles 2 : 0 Scorers: Dean Earwicker (85.), Kazuya Mishima (21.) ***--- Last year's champions get their first home win of the season, and it was entirely deserved too. Famous Battles seem to have problems competing away from home... Ladida FC - First Men of Rome 9 : 4 Scorers: Cowboy-Laila (9., 30., 54.), Beyonce (6., 44.), Pixie (46., 68.), Dixie (11.), Marianne (18.) ***Falcao (1., 32.), Vincenzo Montella (48.), Mancini (19.) Booked: --- ***Falcao The home team did a lucky feed of Trion, and it helped turn a deserved win into a veritable goalfest. Rosedale Premiership Match day 8 ================================= Fjortoft's Friends - Ladida FC 3 : 2 Scorers: Zico (17.), Schnix (74.) ***Marianne (74.), Cowboy-Laila (13.) Penalties: 1 ***- A rather even game, but the home advantage gave Fjortoft's Friends a small upper hand. With the help of the referee and a very dubious penalty, they managed to get a win here, pushing up the table. First Men of Rome - Mishima Zaibatsu 1 : 1 Scorers: Gabriel Batistuta (27.) ***Prototype Jack (1.) Booked: Gabriel Batistuta, Mancini ***--- The Toga Boys becomes the first team of the season to score on Mishima in the league, but could only get one point from that as their visitors scored as well. Still, they'd better count themselves lucky; the away team deserved at least two goals from play and chances. Famous Battles - Twin Peaks Owls 1 : 7 Scorers: Stalingrad (80.) ***Dick Tremayne (68., 72.), Jean Renault (13., 15.), Blackie (34., 65.), Dougie Milford (76.) Penalties: - (1 missed) ***- Booked: --- ***Dougie Milford, Log Lady With a shift of strategy, Twin Peaks Owls managed a big upper hand away against homestrong Famous Battles. Although they didn't deserve to win by anywhere near six goals, it was still a win they earned. FC Mokum - FC Asskickers 2 : 3 Scorers: Raul (9.), Ricardo Reis (23.) ***Sting (21., 63.), Booker T. (17.) Penalties: - ***- (1 missed) Booked: Donk ***Mick Foley An almost exactly even game, but the Asskickers fought harder, so it was perhaps poetic justice that they managed to claim both points. Blue Revolution - The Ages 2 : 1 Scorers: Kunihiko (1., 56.) ***The Past (61.) Blue Revolution are having a great season at home, and continued with a one goal win against early leaders the Ages - the latter seem to have slumped considerably in form recently, though. Extreme - Dummys 0 : 2 Scorers: --- ***Krezip (31.) Penalties: - ***1 Booked: Kuijt, Scholes ***Dennis, Krezip, Live Although completely automatically chosen by the program, the lineups allowed manager Kraijenbrink's hopes to come true: An away win for Dummys. Looking at the table, perhaps the result isn't very surprising... Lexington League Match day 7 ============================= Car Park Rangers - Al Rassan United 2 : 1 Scorers: Monique (13.), Al Simmons (69.) ***Brandin (49.) Booked: Eric Draven ***Catriona, Yoshimitsu Despite the visitors picking the better strategy and dominating the game, the Powers managed to put in a fair bit of luck and take this one home. Dead Dino Storage - Springfield United 0 : 2 Scorers: --- ***Duff-Beer (51., 82.) Booked: --- ***Duff-Beer, Marge Simpson, Tingel-Tangel-Bob The top two of Lexington faced off, and lo and behold, the away team managed to win! They were the strongest judging by play too, but not quite an entire goal better. Still, beating the other dominant team away from home is the best indication you can get at this point of the season... it'd be rather surprising if Springfield United do not promote now. Sheffield Thursday - Desassossego Blues 13 : 3 Scorers: Greg Aquino (25., 57., 66., 87.), Dave Bush (33., 38., 46., 59.), Joe Dillon (6., 9., 64.), Ryan Braun (18., 42.) ***Alexander Search (1., 18.), Charles R Anon (25.) Booked: --- ***Ricardo Reis Ouch. The Blues got completely wiped off the pitch in this one, as the Owls wanted to show they still mean business despite being placed 8th so far. Tamriel Athletic - Erkrath Gladiators 1 : 0 Scorers: Umog gra-Garz (45.) ***--- Booked: Urbul gro-Orkulg ***--- Picking the right strategy, Tamriel Athletic managed to play practically even with far stronger Lunatics, and thus got a deserved point - their first point of the season. Sleep Wanderers - G.I.D. 6 : 1 Scorers: Foxglove (30., 43.), Pharamond (11., 69.), Kazuki (37.), Matthew Crow (85.) ***--- Penalties: - ***1 An easy win for the Night Terrors against strugglers G.I.D. Gamblers United - Kremlin 1 : 2 Scorers: Stephanie Strongpoint (18.) ***Martin Kolberg (40., 46.) Kremlin picked the right strategy, and narrowly managed to edge out an away win against the Gamblers. Are Jiretorn's boys headed back towards Berkeley? Lexington League Match day 8 ============================= Al Rassan United - Gamblers United 1 : 0 Scorers: Lisseut (87.) ***--- Booked: Garcia de Rada ***--- The Gamblers got real close to an away draw here, but after 87 minutes, Lisseut managed to score the winning goal. The match was primarily the home teams after a stronger fighting spirit. Kremlin - Sleep Wanderers 5 : 2 Scorers: Clayton (17., 53.), Roar Flaathen (32.), Per Ostvold (74.) ***Foxglove (59.), Chantal (89.) Penalties: 1 ***- Booked: Karisma Veggimellom Horheim ***Foxglove, Matthew Crow One lucky point for Trion from the Night Terrors, but all it did was reducing the goals Kremlin won the game by. Even Trion needs to take breaks between the miracles he conjures up... G.I.D. - Tamriel Athletic 1 : 2 Scorers: Ling Xiaoyu (74.) ***Eliza Pierrane (82.), Urbul gro-Orkulg (32.) Booked: --- ***Inial Sintav Fighting harder than their hosts, Tamriel Athletic managed to pull ahead and win one. That's an unbeaten weekend, then - strong performance, Henry! Erkrath Gladiators - Sheffield Thursday 3 : 2 Scorers: Ragnar Huehnerbein (36.), Daniel Klein (23.) ***Ryan Braun (13.), Dave Bush (40.) Penalties: 1 ***- Booked: --- ***Vinny Rottino The home advantage put Erkrath Gladiators somewhat ahead in this one, but they needed the help of the referee to actually get the win. Too bad for Sheffield Thursday, who'll also lack Vinny Rottino to a suspension in the next game. Desassossego Blues - Dead Dino Storage 1 : 3 Scorers: Ricardo Reis (55.) ***The Third Ending (37., 89.), Marillion (49.) Penalties: - (2 missed) ***- Booked: --- ***Marillion, The Third Ending Whoa! Not only did the Blues have real bad luck from normal play, but they also wasted two penalties! On paper, this initially seemed like a walk in the park for the home team, but DDS managed to fight them out of their style and get somewhat close to them in gameplay. Then, luck set in, and Dead Dino Storage stole both points! Springfield United - Car Park Rangers 4 : 2 Scorers: Barney (28., 66., 87.) ***Al Simmons (81.) Penalties: 1 ***1 Booked: --- ***Bruce Banner Springfield United are showing themselves as a vertiable powerhouse this season, and picking the right strategy against the Powers gave them a rather straightforward road to two points. With 14 out of 16 points so far, they're looking in great shape. Berkeley Conference Match day 7 ================================ Saturday Morning FC - Thinkers FC 10 : 3 Scorers: Hobbes (27., 62., 69.), Ironhide (43., 59.), Elmer Fudd (16., 26.), Wizard of Id (5., 62.), Rodimus Prime (41.) ***Plato (22., 66., 90.) Booked: Calvin, Snoopy ***Plato The 2Ds show how they're keeping up in the top - by scoring lots of goals. Plato managed a hat-trick for Thinkers FC, but it was nowhere near enough to compete. Time Will Tell - Call of Cthulhu 1 : 1 Scorers: Hatnix (78.) ***The Cats of Ulthar (36.) Penalties: - (1 missed) ***- Booked: Tutnix ***Beyond the Wall of Sleep, Dreams in the Witch-house, The Quest of Iranon With the home advantage, Time Will Tell were stronger in this matchup, but the Lurking Fear's fighting spirit made a draw rather plausible. Harestua IL - Feyenoord 2 : 1 Scorers: Apollon Sopa (37.), Reidar Skoien (66.) ***Saidi (63.) Feyenoord picked the right strategy for this match, but Harestua IL were simply too strong nevertheless. That's 10 points out of 14 possible so far for the home team - definitely putting in a contention for promotion. AZ - Slartibartfast FC 0 : 0 Booked: --- ***Garkbit Despite AZ running most of the game in this one, Slartibartfast FC managed to keep their goal empty and thus escape with a point.

The Ages - Twin Peaks Owls 3 : 0 Scorers: New Age (72.), The Sixties (74.), Carboniferous (57.) ***--- The Ages picked the right strategy for this game, and had no problems winning it. They're closing in on the top three, but have generally been solid at home. Perhaps the away game is greater reason for worry? Dummys - Mishima Zaibatsu 0 : 0 Booked: Madonna ***--- Dummys picked the right strategy, allowing Mishima Zaibatsu very little play in this one, and as made sense, it ended goalless. Extreme - Ladida FC 1 : 3 Scorers: Rooney (77.) ***Cowboy-Laila (45., 78.), Beyonce (60.) Extreme picked the better strategy, but still, Ladida were a little stronger and managed to edge out a win. I guess Extreme simply aren't strong enough for the Premiership now, even though they would have deserved quite a few more points so far.

She had been trying to convince people that Jin was not an international criminal committing war crimes against several nations but many people chose to ignore her defensive case. Desperate and running out of leads, Xiaoyu turned to Heihachi Mishima, who had restored the Mishima Zaibatsu back to its original state. Xiaoyu couldn't tell Heihachi that she was looking for Jin but she was willing to help Heihachi any way she could. Doing so, Heihachi paired Xiaoyu with Chai Xianghua, a Chinese soldier who was sent on assignment to cover up an incident, and Christie Monteiro, who was not only looking for Eddy Gordo but also secretly working with Lei Wulong as a private investigator. While it seemed as though Xiaoyu was eager to work for Heihachi and was willing to do whatever he commanded, Xianghua and Christie were not as eager as her, which raised suspicion within Xiaoyu and started to question her partners' motives.

  • Final Fantasy VII (1997) Is a Hugely Successful Japanese Srole Playing Game
    M170 CARR M/UP 24/11/05 11:06 AM Page 72 Phil's G4 Phil's G4:Users:phil:Public: PHIL'S JOBS:9595 - POLIT CHAPTER 06 Playing Roles Andrew Burn QUARESOFT’S Final Fantasy VII (1997) is a hugely successful Japanese SRole Playing Game. It sold to virtually all Japan’s Playstation owners within the first forty-eight hours of its release in 1997, and was no less popular in the USA on its release there later that year.1 In this chapter, we use FFVII as a case study to explore one of the key dimensions of Role Playing Games: the avatar. ‘Avatar’ is the Sanskrit word for ‘descent’, and refers to the embodi- ment of a god on earth. It is by means of the avatar that the player becomes embodied in the game, and performs the role of protagonist. Cloud Strife, the protagonist-avatar of FFVII, is a mysterious mercenary. Dressed in leather and big boots, he wields a sword as big as himself; but he has an oddly childish face, whimsically delineated in the ‘deformed aesthetic’ of manga, with enormous, glowing blue eyes, framed in cyberpunk blond spikes (Illustration 6). This is how Rachel, a seventeen-year-old English player of FFVII, described Cloud in one of our research interviews: It’s just basically you play this character who’s in this like really cool like cityscape and you have to, er, and he finds out . and, er, he escapes because he finds out that, um, he’s, because he starts having these flashbacks, and he escapes from this city because he’s being pursued I think, and, um, he has to defeat this big corporation and try and – oh yeah, Sephiroth, he’s this big military commander, and you have to go and try to stop him, ’cos he’s trying to raise up all the beasts, and you do this by collecting materia, which you can use for magic and stuff, and you use your own weapons, and – Rachel’s phrase ‘this character’ evokes the conventional idea of the fictional character operating as a protagonist in a narrative.

  • The Story of Final Fantasy VII and How Squaresoft
    STS145 History of Computer Game Design, Final Paper, Winter 2001 Gek Siong Low Coming to America The making of Final Fantasy VII and how Squaresoft conquered the RPG market Gek Siong Low [email protected] Disclaimer: I have tried my best to find sources that are as reliable as possible (press releases, interviews in published magazines, etc) but many times I had to depend on third-party accounts of what happened. Some of these accounts conflict with one another, so I try to present as coherent an account of the history as I can here. I do not claim that everything in this paper is true. With that in mind, let us proceed on with the story… Introduction “[Final Fantasy VII is]…quite possibly the greatest game ever made.” -- GameFan magazine, quote on back of Final Fantasy VII CD case (Greatest Hits edition) The story of Squaresoft’s success in the US video games market appears at first glance to be like a fairy tale. Before Final Fantasy VII, console-based role-playing games (RPGs) were still a niche market, played only by a dedicated few who were willing to endure the long wait for the few games to cross the Pacific and onto American soil. Then came Final Fantasy VII in the September of 1997, wowing everybody with its amazing graphics, story and gameplay. The game single-handedly lifted console-based RPGs out of their little niche into the mainstream, selling millions of copies worldwide, and made Squaresoft a household name in video games. Final Fantasy VII CD cover art Today console-based RPGs are a major industry, with players spoilt-for- choice on which RPG to buy every Christmas.

  • Final Fantasy
    kvarter Volume 20. Spring 2020 • on the web akademiskacademic quarter “What you Remember is the Illusion” The Deluded Hero, New Mythology, and Nostalgia in Final Fantasy VII David Stevenson is a PhD film graduate from Queen’s University, Belfast. His research interests focus on theorizing Japanese digital cultures and the application of interdisciplinary methodology and close reading to video games. Recently, David has been examining the relationship between game narratives, their aesthetics, and the industrial efforts that produce them. “No, not memories… a memory is something that is con- sciously recalled, right? That’s why sometimes it can be mistaken or wrong. It’s different from a memory locked deep in your heart.” - Tifa Lockheart, Final Fantasy VII. Abstract Typically, critical writing on the topic has emphasised the hero / pro- tagonist figure as the primary vector of player agency. However, the hero(es) of Final Fantasy VII (Finaru Fantashii VII, 1998) exhibit psy- chological depth in which party characters confront their self-delu- sion. This is particularly apt with Cloud who experiences an intro- spective reckoning while comatose that prefigures the game’s denouement. Beyond the narrative function of self-discovery, this essay argues that this process exists to reconcile the player with the JRPG ‘world’, a pan-mythological territory often reliant on signs, symbols and archetypes as exposition of an intricate and alien place. Through close reading of FFVII’s aesthetic and gameplay design, I aim to demonstrate that the protagonist is the nexus of player discov- ery, psychological characterisation and ‘lore’, and the significance of this model in the reframing and reinvention of the past common to the JRPG genre.

  • From Losing to Loss: Exploring the Expressive Capacities of Videogames Beyond Death As Failure
    From Losing to Loss: Exploring the Expressive Capacities of Videogames Beyond Death as Failure By Sabine Harrer Abstract In games, loss is as ubiquitous as it is trivial. One reason for this has been found in the established convention of on-screen character death as a signifier for failure (Klastrup 2006; Grant 2011; Johnson 2011). If that’s all that games have to offer in terms of addressing an existential trope of human experience, the worried pro- tectionist concludes, shouldn’t we dismiss this intrinsically flat medium as inferior to more established media forms such as film or literature? (Ebert 2010). Contrary to this view, this paper discusses gameplay examples that shed light on how this medium might leverage its expressive resources to arrive at rich representations of loss. First, the notion of loss implied in Sigmund Freud’s work “Mourning and Mel- ancholia” (1917) will be discussed in relation to losing in games. Looking at pro- cedurality, fictional alignment and experiential metaphor as three expressive gameplay devices identified by Doris Rusch (2009) will help explain the expres- sive shortcoming of losing and lay out what is at stake with profound gameplay expression. Moreover, it will serve as the keywords structuring the following analysis of three videogames, Final Fantasy VII (1997), Ico (2001) and Passage (2007), and their design decisions fostering deep representations of loss. Keeping the Freudian notion of loss in mind, we can trace its repercussions on the three expressive dimensions respectively. Following a separate analysis of each game- play example, the last section will discuss some commonalities and differences and arrive at the identification of desired object, permanent disruption and lineari- ty as design aspects modeling loss in more compelling ways than losing.

  • Cloud Strife, an Analysis of Cloud-Based Shadow IT and a Framework for Managing Its Risks and Opportunities, © February 26, 2016 Supervisors: Dr
    CLOUDSTRIFE marc hulsebosch [email protected] An analysis of Cloud-based Shadow IT and a framework for managing its risks and opportunities Master of Science- Business Information Technology Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Science University of Twente February 25, 2016 – version 0.6 Marc Hulsebosch: Cloud Strife, An analysis of Cloud-based Shadow IT and a framework for managing its risks and opportunities, © February 26, 2016 supervisors: Dr. Klaas Sikkel- University of Twente Dr. ir. Hans Moonen- University of Twente Edwin Sturrus, MSc.- KPMG location: Enschede SUMMARY This thesis proposes a framework for the management of unauthorized cloud computing usage, based on a risk analysis, a set of possible strategies and concrete measures. The rise of cloud computing in the consumer domain has raised users’ ex- pectations about the types of services that organizational IT departments deliver and the speed of delivery. Many IT departments are unable to keep up with these expectations. As a result, individual employees and depart- ments choose to bring cloud services into the organization by themselves, circumventing IT. This is called Cloud-Based Shadow IT. The use of these services may result in various risks for the organization, such as business continuity risks, unauthorized access to sensitive data, non- compliance and adverse eects on nancial and operational performance.
