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 !

I just bout the Linsys because it said it was wireless. Paid $10 for it. When it got here it was a 4-port so I never hooked it up. Im paying for 10 mb and every sped test I have ever done has showed 6 or less. My son said he didnt think the motorolla could handle that much but that is what AT&T sold me for $80!!! Think I'll switch and see if it runs better

did you test it on this site
my internet provider told me to use it
http://www.speedtest.net/

just click on the triangle in the center

I'm running at 17.89 mbps
and 2.75 mbps

I think I pay for 25 or 50 I'll have to check maybe I'm not getting the speed I should, but you never get as much as promised

OK time to do my contests
see you tomorrow

I just went and looked. "Voting for this period has expired". I didn't enter for the next phase of the contest. It looks like they haven't posted winners for the period 9 contest. Thank you very much to everyone who voted! I really appreciate it!!

I was thinking I dont stand much of a chance but then I thought I have as much chance as anyone else. THEN I read the rules where you cant win if you have a felony so that kinda ups my chances just a little!! YAY!!! Still.... A coin flip is 50/50 and I lose that every time!!! LMAO
The only time your legal record is of any importance is if you win the trip to the Ranch. You can win any of the other prizes, even if you're in jail, but you can't go to the Ranch if you've had criminal problems.

It depends on what speed you pay for. If you are paying for a 10meg connection, then that is good. If you are paying for 15meg connection then that is about average. Anything more and you need to call your ISP and complain!
Great ping time tho! Ping is basically the time it takes a website to know you want to see it.

Quote from Dori :
I won a bean-bag chair from the locker game and two t-shirts from the cannon game. Don't give up.
I won the stadium cushion for my wife, and the backpack for myself, both good enough for me - if the backpack doesn't have a padded section for a laptop, I'll figure out how to sew one into it. I couldn't really use the beanbag, no place to put it, and most likely too small - until a few years ago, NO ONE sold one big enough to make me happy, so I always sewed my own. Still have one about 6' diameter packed up somewhere (minus the beads, of course).

Won a Tshirt 5 or 6 times - I guess my first win at the very start of the game must have gone through for both me and my wife's email addresses (NoScript blocked the entry of my wife's email address, but it must have still gone through), since the 2nd time I won it playing for her, it said she had already won - noooo, first win of a T on her account. So I kept playing, and alternated between my acct and hers. After at least 2 wins on each, with it saying "you've already won", I figured it was time to stop.

The key to both of the games is to play at 2-4am. No one else is up at that hour, so it's easier to be the first one playing after a random time pick.

I'd rather win the grand prize, though ;-)

So I had a UPS notice on my door when I got home last night -- something from Amazon. I haven't ordered anything from Amazon for a while so couldn't figure out what they heck was being sent. I told them to leave it in front of the door today, so when I got home, I found my winnings from the Extra Gum Smackdown. A really cute portable AM/FM radio with an alarm clock and it even came with ear buds. I'm impressed. I bought it with my first $10 GC. I have another one but there's nothing but cookbooks this time around for $10. I'm hoping to win another $10 and add them together.
You're only allowed 2 wins, and winning 2 $10s and combining them doesn't help, as there are only $10, $50, and $100 prizes. I have $20 from 2 wins, I'm probably just going to get a couple of cookbooks.

Oh boy. That brought back some memories.... I have a son with mild CP which affects his balance and speech. When he was about 18, he came home with his knee swollen about 3 times its normal size and said two boys (age 14) pushed him down the steps at a nearby park, took off his belt and used it to tie him to a bench. I called the police, they went to the one of the kids house, and the dad told the cops his son was home all afternoon doing homework! The cops told me they were very familiar with the kid's dad (apparently his son was following his footsteps) and knew he was lying but there was nothing they could do. My daughter's friends found out about it and the following week a bunch of them surrounded the bullies and B*tch slapped them for a while and then let them run away, trembling and crying. I didn't find out about that incident until about a week later and was warned by my daughter not to say anything because her friends might get in trouble. Of course, I quietly thanked all of her friends. I also found out about three months later, the police had heard about the incident, and the only action they ever took was, when the saw my daughter's friends, would wink and smile. (Gotta love living in a small town!) Wink
