Britt, my opinion of Gord is well document. The abuse he has given to other webmasters is as well.
If you need any help with a new registrar, e-mail me. I can also put you in touch with some people who have had similiar problems as you.

DomainNameSystems....
Can someone tell me if I have made a mistake transferring several domains there from Network Solutions?
I am in the process of moving all my domains to DNS and don't want to make a mistake.
What is the scoop on them, and what has Gord done wrong?
Also, is it the same Gord as TLDNS or something like that from a few years back?
I just don't want to move my domains and watch DomainNameSystems go up in smoke. Netsol has given me more grief then I can handle, don't need more now. :)

The lack of an announcement of the entertainment at the Players Ball has nothing to do with any naked kings..it's all about security measures, and not having a mob scene at the door that could possibly crush webmasters like the Riverfront WHO concert of 1979
That being said I spoke to several legends today on the phone and they can't wait to blow up LV....:-))

I heard that DMX and others might be playing at this PlayersBall, but it appeared to only be a rumor. I would have thought about sneaking over for a hot show like that. It seems there will only be some local bands playing at most, and of course webmaster talent show. ( which I am confident I could have done, Serge and I have a great soft shoe routine!!)

1 thing i noticed on the 2 cartoons is sharky, and the guys from playahaterball poked fun of themselves in the cartoon. they make fun of themselves.
whereas fantasyman has himself setup as the cool man, and everything revolves around him. he did not even include d$, evan or anyone else. he does not make of himself or his team at all.
it appears fantasyman has everything revolving around himself. i dont think sharky and those guys were knocking fantasyman himself, rather then the whole idea of the playasball. i remember mike ai, brad, johnip and other comaplaing about the setup.
guess some people take things personally. fantasyman against the world. the planets revolve around him.

oh...i think maybe u are talking about this week's WEEKLY competition, the one which http://www.maxcash.com is providing the prize for. You can do the regular tie breaker for that one.
I am talking about the whole season champion, how to break a tie as KK and Vick are only seperated by one. Also possible if they stumble badly a few other could jump up.

Miss Pickem 2001! Vick would look good in a tierra and evening gown!
When we set up Pickem game nowhere in the fine print did it say we gave up the right to humiliate you if you won!
um........about tie breakers....i don't think a tie breaking formula like the ones we've been doing lately would be fair, to settle a contest that has gone on for over 4 months on a few select games. But i can't really think of anything better, if we had thought about it before the contest started, i would have suggested weekly championships might have been a good way to settle it. But that isn't fair now since i think KK already leads in that department.
Since it is only two people most likely who would be tied, we could extend it to overtime, make them keep going into the playoffs, sudden death, first won to pick a game wrong loses.

There has been some confusion by ignorant people who cannot read. The application at http://playerhaterball.com is ONLY for those who are not in the original groups of 125. That is people who are not already friends of ourse. ( those who are going to be invited already know to have that evening available... )
We thought it would be a great opportunity to set up a lottery for people we did not know, to have a shot of joining our small, intimate gathering. From the overwelming response we had, there was a demand for this.
The form which we created was a 80% joke, but we figured we might as well see what peoples opinions were of popular Credit Card Processing, Webmaster Programs, who people host with, etc...
This is called market research.... I think the people who are raising the issues, are the same people who are concerned about questioanires. Some of the ratings we have got have been shocking.
I have been debating with some of my friends on if we should release the information to show the overall rating of programs and billing companies so the public can be educated on what the polling has shown.
Some people out there probably do not want this information released and are already in "damage control" spin doctoring mode...
But hey what do I know. Some people actually gave DMR processing high marks! hahaha
