  - Thanks. -- nm - Spawn Oct 22, 08:46
  - But her name was Maxine Kaiser. We're still boned! -- nm - Will Hunting Oct 22, 08:46 1

Gamefly is having an under $20 videogame sale.... -- (link) - Remlik Oct 22, 08:44 9
- Tiger Woods 2009. $20. Beating Remlik by 15 shots...priceless. -- nm - Will Hunting Oct 22, 08:44 8
  - you're good. no doubt. I'm up for a rematch! -- nm - Remlik Oct 22, 08:46 7
    - Sounds good. I need to see how that looks on the big screen. -- nm - Will Hunting Oct 22, 08:46 6
      - it looks amazing. I think it looks even better than Halo does. Granted they had an extra year to really tweak the graphics. but it;s terrifc. -- nm - Remlik Oct 22, 08:48 5
        
        *wonders if I should get this game* -- nm - tRuMaN Oct 22, 08:52
        
        Halo 3's graphics are mostly last-gen, barely enhanced for the 360's abilities. -- nm - Beryllium Oct 22, 08:51 1
        
        that's what I figured. -- nm - Remlik Oct 22, 08:52
        
        I worry about it being too realistic like. "Yep, three putting from 8 feet looks similar." -- nm - Will Hunting Oct 22, 08:50 1
        
        well since I'll probably never play any of those courses I won't worry about. -- nm - Remlik Oct 22, 08:51
Given the new HSX port page, do you think they have done away with reset and gone to a "continuous open" market concept? -- nm - gordon06 Oct 22, 08:39 7
- I think the consultants sold the redesign as a social site with the real purpose of the site put on the back burner "No one will actually trade." - lileve Oct 22, 08:41 5
  - makes you wonder if anyone was buying what they were selling in the first place? - znufrii Oct 22, 08:48 1
    - They've given us blogs, they plan to make money off of user created content. -- nm - lileve Oct 22, 08:53
  - absolutely they were planning this as a jump on the social networking bandwagon. heck, DMac has been using FB for news releases about the upgrade -- nm - zork Oct 22, 08:43 2
    - unfortunately, WE got jumped instead. -- nm - CrankYanker Oct 22, 08:44 1
      - Yes, the core users have been ripped off. -- nm - lileve Oct 22, 08:44
- Reset occurs, but they seem to be avoiding giving information related to it. - ty97 Oct 22, 08:40

- NO but for you! - Spawn Oct 22, 08:38 1
  - damnit! BUY damnit BUY! -- nm - Remlik Oct 22, 08:42
School boots out 22 kids a day......... sounds like the new HSX. -- (link) - CrankYanker Oct 22, 08:31
If 1000 active users stop trading ... it will leave a mark! -- nm - gordon06 Oct 22, 08:30 2
- Really the only way to "leave a mark" is for everyone to stop going there. Boycott HSX! (Somebody start a FB group.) -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Oct 22, 08:33 1
  - AMEN!!! -- nm - gordon06 Oct 22, 08:36
Did John McCain just say the "c" word on live TV? -- (link) - Don Homer Oct 22, 08:29 [youtube] 16
- Who would have thought it would be McCain to introduce porn into the campaign. -- nm - sheba Oct 22, 08:41
- hard to say. I'm not sure I would've even noticed if I weren't listening for it. -- nm - znufrii Oct 22, 08:38 2
  - When he corrected himself, he drew attention to it. -- nm - sheba Oct 22, 08:46

  - not on live tv, but to his wife in front of reporters, yes -- nm - The Calico Cat Coalition Oct 22, 08:31 1
    - HIs wife is a c-word? -- nm - secretslacker Oct 22, 08:44
I've always felt that the little acronyms people preface their posts with (LYC, SITWAP) are pointless and superfluous, HOWEVER - Reagen Oct 22, 08:29 15
- when I do it, whatever it says it means "I don't give a shit if you care, I'm posting it anyway." -- nm - mafic Oct 22, 08:52
- if I don't use the SITWAP, I get hounded by the Buddy folks. I effen hate Buddy posts -- nm - crash davis Oct 22, 08:37 5
  - god, me too. utterly pointless. -- nm - Andie Oct 22, 08:41
  - I'm a Labrador Retriever dammit not a lowly Hound! -- nm - Buddy Oct 22, 08:39
  - honestly, I don't care when people repost stuff at all. I've usually been too busy to backboard so I'm seeing it for the first time and it has value. - Callisto Oct 22, 08:38 1
    - exactly. i don't always catch something the first time. -- nm - Andie Oct 22, 08:41
  - you get hounded by them even if you do use SITWAP -- nm - znufrii Oct 22, 08:37
- kid, your face is pointless and superfluous -- nm - znufrii Oct 22, 08:36

- Oh, I was just jokin'. I will award you $1000 hsx for dick and boner in the same post! - Amy Oct 22, 08:31 6
  - ok just makin' sure.... sarcasm doesn't always translate well in printed words... - i'm not Undead yet ! Oct 22, 08:35 1
    - I have noticed that our sarcasm detectors have not fully converted from TT to ST. Bery really needs to work on that. -- nm - Spawn Oct 22, 08:40
  - I know what you mean. I think new HSX, leg pain, croup, barely being able to walk and just getting older made me Whiney McWhinerstein today. -- nm - Diva Oct 22, 08:34 3

- That's kilbo's photo--that no one looked at. See, I did know that. -- nm - Amy Oct 22, 08:19 3

  - Quit calling me no one! -- nm - Spawn Oct 22, 08:21
weirdest thing about the upgrade... the trolls are just coming out of the woodworks.. - colin Oct 22, 08:16 21
- I wouldn't say they're trolls - just a lot of people equally pissed off at the changes that weren't an active part of TT. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Oct 22, 08:32
- There are no BANNED usernames, so probably there are many that posted with an old USERNAME -- nm - gogreen Oct 22, 08:25
- I agree with ty97, they are non posting traders. It actaully takes a lot to post on TT. It is a close group of long time players. There are a large - gordon06 Oct 22, 08:25
- Video? -- nm - Mop Oct 22, 08:20 1
  - HSX Minute videos.. "analysis" by the so called "HSX Insiders"... - colin Oct 22, 08:23
- So that's who they were aiming for at the expense of longtime players? Interesting. -- nm - Diva Oct 22, 08:17 4
  - that's the feeling i get.. by making the "levels" end at 100M, they are targeting new players.. - colin Oct 22, 08:22
  - when you didn't want to do your bonds last night I knew they were in trouble... -- nm - Mel Profit Oct 22, 08:22 2
    - Couldn't even face them in that format. -- nm - Diva Oct 22, 08:23 1
      - like you didn't even want to consider it... -- nm - Mel Profit Oct 22, 08:23
- Well, at least they brought out their Target Demo -- nm - Scorpion Oct 22, 08:17
- I think many are just non-posting traders who are upset, not trolls per se -- nm - ty97 Oct 22, 08:17
- I'm sure it's just the veterans that don't like the new site. All the new people will like it. -- nm - JaxSean Oct 22, 08:17
- I hate that only your usename shows. I don't know who anybody is. -- nm - Amy Oct 22, 08:17 7
  - Exactly. How can THAT be an "upgrade?" -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Oct 22, 08:22 6
    - I love that someone's username is "sensualseduction". -- nm - Amy Oct 22, 08:23 5

        How do you even "find" anybody? -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Oct 22, 08:30 2
        
        Use 'Friends I may know' to search -- (link) - ty97 Oct 22, 08:35 1
        
        I guess my question DID imply I wanted to use the feature... - Cuzzin Todd Oct 22, 08:37
