Hey Peeps!!! What Did I Miss?

D-realJos · 02-08-2003, 02:17 AM

Haven't been around lately, so just decide to drop by on the gang.

My original ISP(compuserve) account got canceled some time in early Jan. I made a switch to AOL for the time being. Damn AOL sucks hard, I got some annoying navigational problems that makes browsing tedious at times.

Haven't been around much cause pretty much all my resources are on my former account(compuserve), so I can't work on any topics sketches I had and it's also difficult to keep up with the latest news.

(I hang around IGN a log right now. I figure if the slightest bit of news comes out, those "pack of wild dogs" will jump on it in a heartbeat, so, I'm likely to catch it)

Anyway, what I came to say, is; when I get my account up and running again, I can continue work on a really neat topic I think you folks will love(if all goes according to plan), and of course, the regular Developer Trio updates as well.

Peace!

PS: Ahhhh, I feel like a total stranger again. I wonder what I missed...

You too? So have I, but your's looks better. I just have some under my chin, but it sure looks nice.

I see you guys are still crazy as ever, so I guess nothing changed.

Sadly, I think "yes" would be the correct answer. I totall got offset last time, even before I could properly start compiling E³ results. That made it even harder to continue it later down the line because it was much more difficult to track what did/didn't occur at the event.

This year's E³ would seem like a perfect opportunity, but I'm a lot more busy now, so I can't guarantee when/if I could ever do another one. There's a bounty for my head already, so I won't be talking any chances starting another one that I can't complete.

I hope others don't get the idea that I screwed you guys over or anything. It was unfortunate for you, but it was for me too, cause I put a ton of planning/work into the last one(betting boubloons and all). That was all in vain.

PS: If someone(or some people) is willing to "host" it for me(meaning: organize and coordinate the result updates) then that'd be another story. I would gladly fork over whatever material they'll need to get started(rules, scoring , layout, some questions, etc).

Well, D-Real, if you can send me a PM explaining how this E3 prediction thing works (I've never participated in it...), then I'd be glad to host it.

Joeiss · 02-09-2003, 12:53 PM

Me and the penguin man were going to help out last time... but then it fell apart.

GameKinG · 02-09-2003, 02:08 PM

You best start now then...

D-realJos · 02-10-2003, 03:02 AM

ok.. i'll see what i can do in the following days..

Ahha! maybe you guys would see it's no easy task.

You'll have to put everything in some kind of chart so it's easy to spot potential mistakes in scoring and stuff.

Imma holla at you guys later!

PS: I wouldn't mind playing, especially knowing the workload isn't on me.
