anyone have rollover minutes? do you like it? can you only roll over month to month or rack them up all year?

I still have rollover minutes going from way back when they first offered them years ago.  I have about 9000 minutes racked up and that's after they totally voided them when I made a change in my program back a few years ago.  They're nice to have but I wouldn't pay too much extra for them.  I got mine as part of my deal.  $12.99/month for 140 minutes with rollover.

I was the one in charge of the parks guesses.  I have the sheets made up with another sheet with all the Ramsey county parks and rec centers. (Thanks KC)  I have 40 spots listed but could go more if needed.  I'll be selling the tags for $5 where you can put your screen name or real name on them.  We need to determine a good time to draw since everyone entered needs to be present to pick their park when their name is called.  Any ideas?  A park will be crossed off the list once someone picks it.  So be ready to think of some obscure parks if your name doesn't end up getting picked until later in the draw.  We'll also need someone to draw that isn't in on it since I want the same chance as the rest of you.  But one thing you can count on is that even if I'm picked #1, CoNo will not come from these lips. (as if you didn't already know that)

Lemmy know a good time and how many of you might be interested so I can change the board if need be.

Can you please get a board going for this THX?  Maybe include the basics from this post as well?  It doesn't even necessarily need to be a posting thread since I'll just include who has what park.

Anyone can buy a tag up until we decide to draw.  That's the part that we need to figure out since I know some won't be staying that late either.

I walked around Central Park for two hours yesterday. It felt like a "medallion" park.

Ok guys.. so I don't piss off people... What should I share and not share on the resources page.

I don't care either way. Kitch made a good point in that the crew should have all those tools at their finger tips... lurkers should not....

Tell me what you think so I can get stuff squared away.

I guess it's not a big deal, any of the information you're protecting can be found if someone spends the time looking. Basically protecting it is only keeping the casual net surfer from gaining a bunch of resources without any effort.

Thats what I was thinking. They can google it and find it on their own. If we have it pooled in one place it I figure it should be just for the crew. If someone comes along and "joins the crew" then they can enjoy it too.

Wow Marley King, for the last few years you had me thinking you were serious about the hunt.

Hey man... come on, why you gotta be like that?

Why does he have to be like "what"?

Offensive to others?

Nothing wrong with that, as far as I can tell.

Infact, I would like to see more of it. This little group has become so lame, and so much of a joke, that I'm surprised its lasted this long.

Oh yea, and before you ask, La Bamba, yes, im drinking.

You can stop sending me egrams, trying to get me to stop dissing you, too. I dont care how nicely you ask.

"what do I have against you"??

Everything. You suck, and always have, and I'm only telling it like it is. I'm actually glad you finally saw things for how they've always been, "pal".

Keep em comin, buddy.

"Whats with the La Bamba shit?"

Would you rather I refer to you as Disco Inferno? Mo' Town?? How about The Rapping Dumbass?? Got another choice of your own?

Hey, whats this I was reading on one of the other threads about some new chick thats gonna start hunting with you?

How'd you manage that? Has she seen you in person yet? I bet she'll change her mind, when she does.

Yea, your missing the fact that Nick is a little bitch with no friends, anymore, and that your getting involved with the cooler crew is a mistake, because its all a sham anyways.

Sorry man.... that sucks :(   I for one, know full well what a  last day of work feels like... Ive had them many times.

Dont involve others on the board in your bullshit, they have nothing to do with this.

Your right, but who cares. You've made it impossible for me to bother you, in any other way, and I dont really care what any of these people think anymore, really.

Only point I was trying to make was that Marley has been no where to be found for the last year. I wasn't saying anything bad, but as usual something is taken so far out of context that it's twisted, turned, cut, and completely distorted to make me look bad. Was my post offensive THX?

Well thank you for that.

BTW OTS, i'm sure you'll be interested to know that I do brush my teeth during the hunt.

AND I'm not ashamed of taking the hunt far more seriously than most.......

Not to mention the fact that I spoke one or two sentances to you at the PDG last year before someone told you who I was, then all of a sudden you act like you know what I'm about.......... give me a break and get to know me and DECIDE FOR YOURSELF!

Well, then I apologize if I offended you... it just seemed like maybe you were taking a shot at Marley... I realize now that maybe you could have even been joking  or something....  or even meant nothing at all by the post, sorry.

OK, fair enough. I'm referring to some earlier posts too.....

Thanks for the apology, Wicked Nick. I appreciate it. But your still a fag.

Newbie, It looks like you have like three conversations going on.. I just want to make sure I'm answering the parts that apply to me.

It's not as if Marley has gone out of his way to show me any kind of decency, the guy has done everything he can to bash me over the last two years. I find it interesting that as soon as I stand up for myself THX feels the need to kick me out......

Fri, 01/21/2005 - 3:51 AM Permalink
Wicked Nick

I think I skipped like 250 posts.... im guessing that its been revealed as to whom you actually are?

I am asking anyone who has issues with me to take it up with me at the PDG face to face where I can defend myself, I've read enough. Tim, it's too bad you have given in to persuasion. What have I ever done to you, other then encourage you to have fun hunting?

Jake... I'm asking you... what part of this are you directing towards me.

Legit JOE!

And to be honest, there are many who bash me that mean absolutely nothing to me, but when you are cool to someone and go out of your way to help them and they turn around and talk smack, its not cool. At least I have the gumption to come on here and post what I really think knowing that most will overreact and want me banned so they can feel as if they have some sort of authority........

Pretty quick there, shit-for-brains. I'm not even on here every day and even I knew that.

My point is you and pretty much everyone else in here don't know a damn thing about me........ yet everyone seems to think they know more about me than I do.......

I know what was said to me and my wife about the cooler crew before I even knew anyone here by you.

I also know when I first met you talking online you were saying and doing the same things that got people upset with you here on PF in my chat room.
