As far as adding the scores in through an admin, having the info on weekly winners out by Tuesday morning (always a Monday Night game), adding the new line every week, acting as a impartial judge in case of any disputes, reminding players to get their picks in every week (I like the idea of a short weekly email) than I can help out

Have to find out where Mutt got the software to run the pool, think it was easy to find and inexpensive (does anyone have facts on it?) If not I can look around or drop Mutt an email

Bottom line is if it adds/offers something of value to Oprano, something members of Oprano want, increases revenues, visits, visibility, memberbase and something advertisers want in on

The NFL season opens on Thursday September 8

Damn I have a gift for the obvious!!!

Yeah so let's talk (if the members are up for it again this year). I'll be busy most of Tuesday but might be able to free up a little time, If not Wednesday will work.

Think last year might have been the biggest in terms of amount of players

It's 4:33A.M/ EST (GMT -5) so am not at my brightest

Everyone please feel free to chime in

Vick you might also want to check with the folks over at NAt Net as I think they own the domain that Pick Em runs under as well.

So what am I missing here? Was this the old board format? One single continuous string? Very interesting.

Most of the old scripts werent capabile of doing multi threads so the message boards consisted of one long thread. Always reminded me of some of the old BBS software where people wrote graffitti on the wall.

This thread sponsored by Macdaddybucks.
Its a different kind of promo for a change.

Welcome to the good ol' bad ol' days, Steve...where the board went on...and on...and on...you get the picture.

Speaking of first threaded scripts. Did anyone else make the mistake of running Gossamer Threads script back in the day?

That was guranteed to drag the beefiest box down to a crawl.

According to Guile's disclaimer ... Morgan would still be ineligible since she is affiliated with the site... you should give me the money instead :P

failing that... Morgan can always buy me and her some interesting toys :P

[Dravyk]

Today's word is "slut". Today's letters are "F" and "U".

Come and play, everything's a-ok ....

I believe that's the point - it's Dr. Guile's disclaimer, not Oprano's

[Bhelliom]

LOL that's why I specifically attributed it to DrGuile

That was the dude that had the $300 picpost script. I think he was in Fat City until Matt from Shaven Ferrett released that free picpost script and followed it up with the free TGP script.

The killing blow could have been when he included the multi submitter within the script. I remember that thing well.... post one pic or one gallery and tell it to multisubmit... it was instant traffic.

Nick would have been proud of how we used to leverage that thing.

Maverick! I used to get the most endearing e-mails from the delightful German: "Morgan, the only thing I understood was the last sentence."

[Bhelliom]

Why, thank you, Dr. Guile.

You weren't around the Lounge on Marseillaise Day, so you didn't get to see my page.

Ive always meant to ask. Why did you change it from CONDOM to netpond?
Is it true you have a "fish" in your pool?

[Newton]

Bhelliom, french beer is shite? So what does Quebec have that it can be proud of and call its own from a canadians point of view?

[TheEnforcer]

MOMMY!!!

You were still drunk when you woke up - now you're sobering up and finding out why I don't drink much

[Evil Chris]

[DrGuile]

Morgan, Bhelliom, you both have France and Quebec confused.

And to someone from Quebec, that's a terrible insult.

Also, Bhelliom, as a squarehead ontarian, you should know that you cant insult canadian beer, that's just not done.



HANK: By the way Homer, what is your least favorite country? Italy or France?
HOMER: hm... France...
HANK: No one ever says Italy

No never did get the fish as i sold it to meat and aga.

The change was because I wanted to concentrate it on NON adult.

Therefore at one point of time it was actually very hard to find the adult section of Netpond from the index page.

So we were basically trying to place ourselves in a position ot go public with it , probably by way of RTO.

It went really well until we had to complete resume thingys on all senior management....and literally Kaiser left it til the last moment to tell me that he had a felony conviction for pandering...

Sir, I would never deign to insult Canadian beer. I am however, insulting French canadian beer, The vie du monde for example is crap.

As for the france/Quebec confusion, I don't believe I ever confused the two but if I did I apologize... I do know how much of an insult that it :P

[Newton]

TE this would be a terrible time to think about an oyster and tuna meringue cooked in sausage and bacon fat left to stand for a few days, mixed with oatmeal and sweetcorn and covered with white gravy. All washed down with a nice big jug of orange juice that reminds you of bile. Might wanna take a few aspirins and plenty of water mate lol

on a serious note... I have been trying a lot of new beers lately... anything that's lighter that is interesting?

You need a trip to the Awful Waffle!

BTW, you couldn't quote a thread on the non-threaded boards - methinks there's some cheating and using of new technology running around. Not to mention the cute smilies now

[Newton]

Ah thats more like it http://www.2camels.com/destination13.php3 but they are drinking other countries offerings
