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 !

Yes, it would be nice for the girls to keep the lead on the leader board, but it's really not worth this - we have a long way to go until May 13th.
I don't think your lead is in doubt. As I said, I had a tab up with the Wiki with all the links in it, and saved it, so I'm still voting down all the links daily. As soon as I get the little stuff I want, no votes for anyone BUT FFers.

So posting to the Wiki wasn't asking for votes? None of us were asking for votes, then, so Serra was wrong?

Sorry for asking. I thought we were all "family" here, guess I assumed wrong.
We are all family and we are here to help and support each other in whatever way we can. All of us together

Did you recently install a bunch of Windows updates? A couple of other people were having the same problem last night - and said once they un-did the updates, everything worked fine again.

I'll try to vote for your girls later today. I did once, but is it a daily thing? I pretty much avoided the Monterey recipe contest due to lack of time, but as I recall your girls (Scouts) are doing environmental suggestions for badges, and definately worth my time to assist them in their endeavor!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The girls are working on their Silver and Bronze awards and they are working on these environmental projects. Prior to that contest they were having a tough time getting adults to listen to their ideas. When I sent the link to their principals and scout leaders then they decided to listen. So the FFers helped them a lot. Their projects have to be completed by June 15th.

The contest ends May 13th. Jules has already designed shirts for them. The company has already changed their prize policy due to our forum and by my posting on their wall. So we have all done well as a family in the last 2 weeks even helping our family members get their prizes too whether on the red or green challenges. We saw it as a challenge and some of us were up late at night until the wee hours to accomplish this.

The following is for the ones who don't know the history of the leader board:
The rain barrel one is the 14 y.o.'s project. She has even gotten the school to now donate paint, art students to paint for free, and they have agreed to set up an art club after school. So her project was quite big.

The younger one has the other 4 projects. Her award isn't as extensive. She is promoting 4 ways people can help keep it green by using what is in their households without purchasing anything.

So lets all having the scouting spirit and help Boyd and Talonts obtain their prizes too.

Others have been having this problem. I played a little bit ago and it was fine but I skipped the game and just entered the sweepstakes. I had problems when I got the microsoft update. Did yours update recently?? It corrupted my flash player

It's on the server side. Worked for me late last night, failing now:

Could not load file or assembly 'AdminPersistence' or one of its dependencies. There is not enough space on the disk. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070070)


They'll hopefully notice it in the morning and clear some disk space.

Quit worrying because I'm not. I have always been willing to help everyone.

It saddens me to say this - everyone helped the girls in one way or another when their own aunts refused to as they considered them "damaged."

Everyone needs to relax and enjoy it as the FFers are on both leader boards and I hope to see them there on both boards whether its our girls or another FFer. That would be so terrific to see! No other forum has ever done it and we can if we stick together...

Now lets sing "WE ARE FAM I LY" and then have a GrouphugGrouphugGrouphug

Does she have to build a barrel? If so, have you found access to cheap ones yet? If not, check local Peps/Coke bottling plants, the one in Mobile sold me barrels for $5 each. Cleaned out, but still smell like Coke, yum.

There are some good Instructables on building your own, but I've got some improvements on most of the designs there if you want info. I haven't had time/money to gang mine up and get them all filled, but have all the info gathered on the "best" way to set up as many paralleled as you want.

Don't remove the registry key - its a trick. It took me awhile to fix my computer, but it came down with some update crashing my flashplayer.

What URL are you using to skip the game? http://clorox.kewlbox.com/GladFridgeGame.aspx is the one that is still erroring out.

Nope - her school was trying to sell them for years and could not get anyone to buy them. It seems no one wanted them as they were unpainted. So in the pamphlet she designed she stated people could requests a design on it such as a rainbow, flowers, etc. for an extra $10. It seems people are willing to pay extra as long as it's not plain. Someone even requested a cow.

She is too promote them in the name of going GREEN and get others to do so too. The hard part with her project is to ensure it continues. Can't be short-term.

Yep! And I am not computer savvy at all, and BF/hubby is at work as a night stocker (!), so I'll get his expert advice later today when the sun is shining. (Hopefully) I've had this happen a couple times with the Schick games.
