Hi all,

I started this thread for anyone who wants to come here for lite discussion, jokes, and just general discussion and fun.

Everyone is welcome!

I was thinking that maybe it would be helpful to keep the original thread to a bit more of a serious discussion of the clues and answers.

This would make the original thread more useful to those seeking serious information and clues without having to read through hundreds of extraneous messages.

So, I hope it catches on !

So pop a beer and pull up a chair and relax !

quote talonts today 9:16 pm It's the people that seem to think they are entitled to continue OT over and over and over and over again (newbie or not), simply because they want to, even after they have been shown the correct places to go for OT chatter that are the cause of the thread being closed repeatedly. Where will you go when the mods just get tired of it and close it for good?

I say again. Please leave if all you're going to do is chatter incessantly about anything but OWTW. Go to The Lounge. Leave this thread for those of us that actually want to use it for discussing OWTW.


ON TOPIC - anyone that has gotten the 130 camera - about how long is the refresh when using the flash? i.e., how fast is it ready to take the next pic with flash in use?



That jerk talonts is still over in the OWTW forum scolding everyone. Then has the balls to ask for info on the camera.
He craps all over us, but expects us to share info with him? I don't think so!!!!!!!
I sure hope everybody ignores him & he has to figure stuff out on his own.

i got a bike, was 102 points short of the netbook.

I guess i was one of the "growly" ones (and took it out on the wrong person, i apologized though). It is frustrating having to read through 300 posts of crap to get any answers.

I was trying to be nice and remind people of the rules and got jumped like i was the devil.

Went to dinner, what happened after I left?

Let's find slick22 and have her change the name of the thread to include our chatter
she started the thread and we were right along with her from the start
None of these so called old timers were there to lend a hand with anything at anytime, now they want to make us do it there way.

I just don't get this off topic drama that they are complaining about:

I don't want to read I just want the facts that I want when I want them, tooooooo bad babies, learn to read like the rest of us. At the height of the contest some days it took me 4 hours to catch up. Now we only post a few pages each day and we're getting complaints.
These are the same people that checked in for the answers and never contributed.
Phooey on them, they post more off topic stuff complaining that we do during discussion.

I think the OWTW thread is what we make it now what an outsider wants it to be, where is there a deffinition of what can be talked about
slick22 rename our thread to include "and related discussions as we see fit"

Well, ordered it 12/9, got ship notice 12/17, and received it 12/22.
If the person asking about the coat ordered it on 12/16, maybe they will get it this week. Although that may not be in time for the storm headed for the east coast.
I decided I will be getting the coat for myself.
Does it fit bulky ?
I went to Dick's Sporting Good's and they didn't carry the ladies Carhartt and tonight I went up to Bass Pro Shop and they didn't either, uugghh.

But then Monday no one would have to go through 300 pages to see what someone said when they called or what UPS brought.

This thread has been here awhile just to chat. The other contest threads are "boring" because they get to the point and people who are just here for information have time to go through the contest posts and get the information they need and move on.
all I see is some being selfish didn't help and don't want to read

I wasn't talking about the answers, even though, yes I am sure a lot did use the answers. I didn't want to read through 1000 pages to get answers so I used my own. I guess that is why I only got 1498 points. I didn't start keeping up with the thread until Marlboro started shipping prizes then I got hooked wanting to know when my prizes would show up. It would be nice to be to be able to take a quick peek in the thread to see when people were getting there prizes.
So you didn't help and you don't want to read and now you want us to adapt the thread for you, phooey on you, leaves us to our own deviceslaugh out loud

All answers are on page one. If they just want to be in and out quick they can go there and get their info and be on their way. Im sure many do. But why get the info and then start telling people to go away?? That only adds a lot more pages of discussion

You're welcome. We can talk about anything here....and if we slip up and talk about prizes...... Im not going to complain. Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)
