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 am not dedicated enough to vote for all the entries in the Monterey contest so I vote for the person's recipes at the top until they win and remove their name. Then I vote for the next name on the list. This has worked for me until tonight when I saw Gary had moved his recipes from the "going for more" group to the top tier. I know Gary has lots of FF friends and they'd probably vote for him again any way but this is not fair to the people Gary moved in front of.

Okay blast away. But deep down you know this is not right.
I'm not going to blast away - I'm going to agree with you.

Those who haven't received a prize yet should be at the top of the wiki, and those that are "going for more" should be moved down so everyone has a fair & equal chance to win something.

If people are going to keep messing with the wiki, and putting their names at the top, even though they have won one or more prizes, then maybe all links should be removed. Technically, they shouldn't be there in the first place, since it violates SD's rules.

Ok, my turn - blast away!

i don't know how you guys stand me - i get the dunce cap of the year award. a little knowledge is dangerous, and i learn a lot, but not enough. samsung said i may have had a virus or IE9 could have caused it. The desktop that still sits dormant was probably caused by a surge from the last storm. i know that this was functioning until i tried to enter the kew refrig from clorox. then norton said i had highusage and then blocked about 15 attempts to get into my computer and one was a medium threat - usually they are low and cause nothing. If anyone else gets back into that site again, and it seems ok, please let me know. until then i will stay away from it. thanks a lot. that is the one you fill the refrigerator with food, glad bags i think, Embarrassment
I just tried it again and I did NOT get the error I was getting earlier. I was able to play it fine this timeSmilie hope you can as well.

You did a nice job putting the frames together! Yeah, talonts is the only one I know of that has the software to create an animation - I refuse to pay for the software too - just make do with the free stuff I have access to.

I also agree with both of you. I haven't looked at the Wiki for awhile so after reading this I went to see what you are talking about..
Gary, C'mon man, That's not fair to the people who have not won anything yet..It's like cutting to the front of the line. We all know you are trying for more, You really don't need to be in the top category to be seen better. Why not put your stuff where it belongs like the rest of us.. PLAY FAIR.
