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'd have gone on eBay and bought one rather than do that. I have enough trouble voting for the FFers and the new listings. But you'll probably enjoy it more, knowing what it took to get it. You've made us proud. woot
where is the challenge in thatLMAO would have been easier thats for sure

Looks like the top bidder has a proxy.. Going to get interesting in the final minute !
Yeah, it does look like that - wonder what their proxy bid is?
Quote from Dabble-Inn :
Uh-oh, A new pusher just showed up
what's a proxy?
The new bidder has bid before, and now has the bid up to $66.

dabbs - a proxy bid means that they put in their highest bid amount in the beginning, and, whenever someone outbids them, a bid will be placed for them automatically to regain high bidder status - up to their maximum bid.

Yeah, that's how I win a lot of auctions - using a snipe bid.

I've sold a lot of stuff on ebay, but have never been this excited in the closing minutes!!

Not that I'm complaining, but doesn't there seem to be an extraordinary amount of wins on the Tassimo? Marketing campaign? Or maybe the coffee packs you by for it is what they are selling...just wondering....
