RETIRED: Marlboro Outwit the West Funny Farm

228 92 October 16, 2010 at 01:35 PM
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 from bornblondeey :
I just need to talk for a few. I was able to find a nice futon wooden bed (floor model) with a good mattress and they will deliver it shortly (for bedroom for daughter to stay in as grandson took his mattress.) Has drawers for storage. got a good deal. My ear bud broke and I cannot drive and talk w/out it and Motorola is replacing it for free via mail back & forth, but will take probably 2 weeks to receive it. But I was happy and rushing home to continue fixing upstairs room. Still packing grandson's belongings. Sam's mom called. I pulled over. Brother had an aneurism in the brain, on life support now. She has dr's this week. He was going there anyway for Easter as brother was coming home this week. The last time I saw brother we had that fight when they shut off the internet w/out warning. I feel horrible now. I don't know if he can pull out of it. I sure hope and pray he does. He is 58. Well, just had to get it out I guess. Thank you. I will try hard to block it out and continue upstairs and with dinner now and you do not have to say anything to me. It is ok, really. Cannot change it now. I know I can come here to see what my friends are doing and saying and I know you care. So keep having fun and winning stuff and I will try to also.
So sorry Blondeey, Don't beat yourself up about it. The past is just that. We are here for you. I'll be thinking of youhearthug

Me either. And...anyone as unscrupulous as that is probably just a scammer anyways. I sure wouldn't want to give a site like that my information to pay for it either. Your bank acct would probably be cleaned out by the next day!Frown

C Ya all. Going to watch some tv for awhile and relax. HAGO

After voting for a FF member today, I noticed he wasn't in first place anymore. Then I got to looking and remembering. There was a group over on FB about just that, people buying votes. Well besides ads on E-Bay, from people selling votes, here is one right from FB!!

I can't believe that people can actually get way with it, but I guess they do, and can!

thanks for finding that
I wonder if these contest sites can catch the cheaters
mOST OF THEM CAN BECAUSE YOU HAVE TO BE A us CITIZEN and they can tell where the votes are coming from. Most of these vote buying things are located in 3rd word countries. And they can tell how many times someone has logged in from the same IP. However alot of these companies only care that a winner is declared so they can have PR so they let it all slide unless a big stink is raised

Think about how long it takes to log on and vote..... Multiply that by how many accounts you could handle in an hour and you could potentially be making quite a bit of money. In and out in less than a minute, 2 at the most and you making 8 cents a minute!!! Multiply that by 60 minutes/hour comes out to what???? $4.80hour??? times maybe 10 hours a day. Thats alot of money in Nigeria!!!! EEK!

Thats what MTMom and I were up against in the Kenmore one we did. The ones that won would go up by 200 votes in the last 2 minutes or so.

Okay UPS screwed something up big time. I ordered my stuff from NBA on Saturday, Sunday got a notice it was shipped. Today I check status says on it's way to Hodgekins, IL (have had other packages go through there) so Great gonna get it by Friday (Grandsons B-Day and Granddaughter will be up from out of town) Check the status tonight and it says this: Hodgkins, IL, United States 04/02/2012 5:43 P.M. The receiver did not want the order and refused this delivery. / Returned to shipper.
Alternate Tracking Number

WTF? I Called NBA Store they said yes they see it is coming back and that he has never seen that before. Here I figured it was on it's way so okay to throw all the codes and pins away. Asked the guy if I should go out to the garbage and dig them out he said they have to credit me back. Said all he can figure is someone at UPS clicked the wrong button decline instead of accept. Oh well we will see what happens now. At least garbage was picked up this morning so if I do have to go find them they will be there for a week LOL
