Online Poker Forum - Am I screwed?

So, I have 22 hours until my masters dissertation is due in and not only is it not writted up, the research went so badly I don't really have anything useful to write about. Its an applied mathematics dissertation on the dynamics of vortices (essentially modelling whirlpools).
Things working in my favour are that I'm well rested and shouldn't need to sleep before the deadline.

What do you think? Screwed or not?

I once turned an F into a B by pulling an all nighter before the final. I had an F and a D on the first two exams. The lowest exam grade was dropped and your two highest comprised your final grade. I aced the Final to make a B in the class so anything is possible. One night of work for a B for the whole semester. Gotta love college.

...Wait what are you doing? Stop reading this. GET TO WORK!!!

It is kind of ironic that you complain about having a paper due in less than 24 hours, yet you take the time to sit here and write on a message board asking the general populace whether you can finish in time. You better get moving you lazy ***.

Screwed? Yes.

Have I been in the same situation? Yes.

Did I still laugh? Yes.

Why yes Rob, it is possible to do a semesters worth of homework in a night to pull a grade out of the toilet. Doing a year+'s worth of research in a single night tends to be more difficult.

Mathematics dissertation on the dynamics of voritces eh? Well if you had posted this a day earlier I would have suggested throwing a bash with an open bar and then studying the dynamics in the porcelain throne as people went in to worship. It would have given you plenty of research in one night, however it's a little late for that now!

Tell you what I'll start you off and you take it and run with it...

"The water was spinning really, really, really, really, really, really, fast and..."

Hope this helps you out.

lol, thanks playingdead thats very helpful.

I've still got about 2 hours before I need to be uploading it. Nearly finished, just need to think up some sort of conclusion and do some formatting stuff. It is, quite frankly, a complete piece of crap and I'd be embarassed if I didn't know all the fun things I was doing instead of working. I just have to hope that I can blag my way through the interview in a couple of weeks and scrape together a pass.
