Tired of looking at an endless parade of dioramas, an Australian teacher had her class plan a terrorist attack that would "kill as many innocent Australians as possible." "The teacher, with every best intention, was attempting to have the students think through someone else's eyes about conflict. I think there are better ways to do that. ... This is not what we expect of professional educators," said Sharyn O'Neill, director-general of the state's Department of Education.

First, you grab the BFG. Then, make a run for the enemy flag. Circle-strafe and rocket-jump when you need the elevation. It's that simple. You could probably gib the entire Pacific that way.
I mean, seriously, it's so obvious!

The teacher should have de-politicized it and asked the students to make plans for surviving an upcoming zombie apocalypse. As a side benefit many geeks would already have their plans worked out.

These are Australians, they're genetically predisposed towards those kind of things anyway.

Yes, as part of a hypothetical, theoretical scenario.
It would hardly be realistic in context if the aim was maximizing the number of yummy cakes eaten, would it?

Didn't britian found austrailia to get rid of it's terrorists?
Britain only claimed the eastern half, and not just terrorists ended up there.
Oh, right, I'm on Slashdot, what I meant to say was "whoosh".

Wish I could have done that in place of gym class :D
By other "unnamed" ugly places, do you think Sgt. Doom might have meant Mars or Phobos? :P
Funny story, once when I was a little kid I climbed up some weird thing in a school gymnasium (it was like a box made of ladders with two sides missing). I guess nobody saw where I went until I was on top of it. I was looking way down at my teachers who were freaking out, I don't remember how tall it was but it felt like I was waaaaay up there. I was totally calm until my teachers started yelling at me. I just didn't see what the big deal was that everyone wanted me to come down so badly.
