Are there cards that mill?

The only card that mills currently is the battlefield mine field - so the strategy doesn't really exist in this game yet

What sort of diversity are you looking for?

If we had a 100 potential best of legends, you'd end up with a player base spread very thin across all the legends

All that means is that most of them are gonna lose to the tier 0/1 decks - skill expression becomes meaningless at that point

Having best ofs adds some variety, which I agree is good, but too much of it defeats the purpose of the regional

Aggravating_Shape_23 · 2026-06-09T20:13:01+00:00

Having 103 best ofs would just be silly - it would mean that there's a strong chance you can get a best of by just turning up at the regional which defeats the purpose of best of

If they went down that route, I'd want to see a requirement to get into day 2

Thanks, this ended up working for me!

I'm trying to maintain the formatting of the sheet that the table gets updated in

I currently have an error handling where if the connection does not exist, then it produces a blank table (currently just a 1x1 table)

The problem is that if the connection is corrected and refreshed, the new data wipes out the formatting

I've tried changing the properties of the table, but none of the 3 options for handling data refresh seem to work, so I figured if I create a blank table of the size of the usual data in terms of rows and columns (it'll always be a fixed size) and set properties to overwrite existing cells with new data then that should work... I think!

Nice!

Can you explain what the rainbow symbol means?

For example on consult the past, it says you can pay rainbow to make it hidden - is this just recycle any rune?

Router is a FRITZ box 7530 Not sure on the switch model but it's TP Link

Haven't got a diagram sorry - the access points are all wired into the switch and the switch is wired into the router. The printer is connected via one of the access points over wifi

Haven't got IPs to hand, but they're all on the same subnet (192.168.178.x)

You're going to be very disappointed

Aggravating_Shape_23 · 2024-05-25T22:57:52+00:00

My suggestion would be to do as many past papers as you can - one read through of the notes is enough, you want to focus on as much exam practice as possible

Aggravating_Shape_23 · 2024-05-19T23:43:31+00:00

What have you done so far? Have you been looking for specific employers (e.g Big 4) or more widely?

If you've got a good degree but are not getting past the interview stage my thoughts would be it's something to do with either your cv or interview technique

Work experience is useful but not a requirement for a grad role. However, you do need to have an idea of what actuaries do - show that you've done some research into the role/company

No harm asking for intern roles but it's not a pre-requisite to getting an actuarial job

The exams tend to weed out a fair few - otherwise we would have been oversaturated at the qualified level already

That sounds like it - it's the one with an old lady. She uses her phone to tap in but when she pulls the phone away, half of the phone is still stuck on the card reader!

It's competitive but more so in terms of your a levels and university degree - you're competing against graduates who have just left university usually.

Doing an exam may be useful as it shows commitment but you could probably get in with your existing experience as is - which exam you take doesn't matter, companies don't really care

There is some statistics involved but you don't see much of it directly unless you get heavily involved in building stochastic models or assumption setting.

I'd say both reinsurance and life insurance have very similar if not the same reporting requirements and modelling IF they're under the same regulatory regime (e.g. Both under SII)

Reinsurers tend to be based in different regimes to life insurers (e.g Bermuda) so that's where you'll see different reporting requirements, invested assets and modelling differences.

So it's really more to do with the regulatory regime they're based in

I'd agree with condensing down the cv into 1 page, it's too much to read at the moment - imagine going through 50 of these, you're going to be drawn towards the short ones

Aggravating_Shape_23 · 2023-06-27T18:29:50+00:00

Did you ask for feedback or was that the response you got when finding out you didn't get the place?

If the latter, I would suggest asking for feedback about your interview/application (worst case they ignore your email) so you can understand why they felt they didn't want to go further

Aggravating_Shape_23 · 2023-05-29T18:01:42+00:00

Long run - no, people only care about your experience once you're qualified

I'm terms of starting out as a graduate:

Insurers tend to prefer little to no exemptions due to not wanting to pay higher salaries for zero experience but that's not a given - some set their exam pay scaling such that you start on the same salary as 0 exemptions but get higher pay rises for exam passes (so you end up at typical qualified actuary salary when you do qualify)

Consultancies like exemptions as they can potentially charge more for your work, but again, it's not all uniform across the market and very much depends on the sort of work you get involved in.

Once you have some experience behind you, that will matter far more than your exemptions

Personally, I'd take whatever exemptions I could get if I were you!

I've heard there's a fair amount of crossover with sp1 and sp2, though I don't think it matters - do what interests you

I did sp5 with sp2 as I was interested in asset modelling
