Greetings, programs! - Flynn Aug 4, 21:34 12
- I almost fell over when my daughter said she'd never heard of Tron. But I can't decide if I should make her watch it because I'm guessing it doesn't - JaxSean Aug 4, 21:41 8

        i can't see him either! - 'lia Aug 4, 22:26
I love Mark Summers. I love Unwrapped. But I don't think there is a need for them to try and sell DVDs of the show. -- nm - Qale Aug 4, 21:20 2
- it's odd. - b! Aug 4, 21:26 1

CT: this is a facebook game, no? Why not congratulate people in facebook? - Reagen Aug 4, 21:11 24
- Why do people talk about fantasy football and not on the site they play on? Why do people talk about HSX still here? It's a social site maybe? - Redmond Aug 4, 21:14 23
  - Fantasy football messaging systems suck. Facebook *is* messaging. - Reagen Aug 4, 21:16 2
    - He is just upset you never call him after your 1 night stand together -- nm - amoxy Aug 4, 21:37
    - I backpedaled the second I blew my gasket. Sorry about that. - Redmond Aug 4, 21:24
  - Okay the IM is over the top. I escalated that way past what it should have. We can have a reasonable discussion. -- nm - Redmond Aug 4, 21:15 18
    - If I gave you guys a play by play of everything I did within Ikariam, I'd get lynched in a day. -- nm - Reagen Aug 4, 21:18 17
      - The mousebook stuff is not nearly as bad as Ike has been or even worse Conquer Club - amoxy Aug 4, 21:36 2
        
        It hasn't - but as I said I'm trying to think forward, seeing how those got. -- nm - Reagen Aug 4, 21:39
        
        Mousehunt, hoD -- nm - amoxy Aug 4, 21:36
      - There are Ikariam posts made here, as there are others who post Mouse Hunt stuff here. - Redmond Aug 4, 21:23 13
        
        fwiw, i agree with you about this. the mouse stuff is just another thing. - b! Aug 4, 21:32 9
        
        I agree it's just another thing. - Reagen Aug 4, 21:37 7
        
        i haven't been paying attention to the mouse posts, really; but i thought they discussed strategies or the like, too. - b! Aug 4, 21:43 6
        
        as I *said* - some do and that's fine - Reagen Aug 4, 21:46 5
        
        i haven't been paying attention to all the complaints about the mouse posts. - b! Aug 4, 21:50 4
        
        I think it has all gone invisible to me. -- nm - loosilu Aug 4, 22:06
        
        that's cuz there haven't been that many complaints - nm - 'lia Aug 4, 21:54
        
        You are reading my posts for my stated reason, right? - Reagen Aug 4, 21:53 1
        
        yes. - b! Aug 4, 22:02
        
        gah, that took several minutes to load for some reason. -- nm - b! Aug 4, 21:34
        
        I didn't tell you can or can't do anything. I made a polite request that you consider not going down the path of posting every single little thing - Reagen Aug 4, 21:27 2
        
        Well it doesn't work that way. I have 100 friends 8 play the game. There is no way to only send a message to them, that I know of. - Redmond Aug 4, 21:31 1
        
        so why is it that you wouldn't send that message on FB, but you would send it here? -- nm - Reagen Aug 4, 21:33
  - well the IM is obvious -- nm - 500 dugs of summer Aug 4, 21:15
