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 !

if you log off and back on then I think it's facebook
it's done that to me
last night I had to wait forever for pages that never opened
I shut the computer off and restarted and it was a little better
today it's not doing that

On the H2o IWG (if that's the pretty water one), I didn't connect with Facebook. There is a "Don't have a Facebook account, click here" that when you click, you just enter your e-mail address. I do have one Facebook account, but only use it for contests when there is no other choice.
I click when the 59 second mark hits because :
1. the official time clock states it may be off due to your connection speed
2,. I figure it takes a little while for my entry to get to the contest.
Again, I don't do this all the time, just at random now and then. But I keep a list of wins on my calendar and try to note the time of any wins.
I hope that you feel better soon-try to keep moving-it hurts, but when the muscles get warmed up, things are better than when you get stiff from being still.
Good Luck to all!
it did that to me yesterday

Do you have a clock on the lower right of your screen? Left click on that to see the time in seconds too.
I use the website in the previous post and left click on the clock on the lower right of my screen and compare the time. Then if my clock is slow (usually it is), I add the seconds. So if I am 3 seconds slow, I try to click at :56.
I turn off my computer when I go to bed. So when I bring my computer back up, I will have a different connection lag each day. That's one more reason that I don't do this for all contests, everyday.
Hope that you get a good night's sleep. Try to stretch a little in the morning -you will ache, but stretching gradually won't be as bad as trying to move right away.

My HP 6500 printer, purchased with my first ever sweeps win (from Office Depot), died a few days ago and has now been replaced. I have some left-over ink cartridges -- 1 each of the three color cartridges that are about half full, and one black cartridge that is full but has been opened. These are Genuine HP High Capacity 920XL cartridges that I purchased directly from HP.
If anyone wants them just PM your address and I'll be glad to mail them to you. The black cartridge should yield about 1,200 pages, and the color cartridges should have an approximate remaining yield of about 350 pages.
Ink cartridges are expensive and I would really hate to end up recycling them without using the ink.
