If you win the contest, you will be able to customize your current generic rank. So instead of it saying "Chicken Feather" etc., it will be able to say whatever you want (within limits). I think he means, will the winning entry's list be used, replacing the current rank list? These ranks have been used since near the start of tipit.

I heard about this just before booking lots of greyhound trips across america. Maybe I'll fly them instead.

My friend said he was about to go on a rollercoaster when that earthquake hit :ohnoes: I've been in a 5.2 one before in SW Turkey. Was damn scary. 3am and we were sleeping in a tall hotel block. Everyone from the town spent that night and the next outside. People were scared as it was just after the big earthquake in northern turkey which killed thousands so was still in people's memories. Looking back now it was just a big adventure. I was about 15 at the time.

I've only heard and seen them since I've been here in New Zealand in the past month but I think they are pretty funny. Will definitely watch more when I get back home. If there's still a conversation worth having here then there's no problem. Plus it's not that old.

There are quite a few boards within the forum where post counts are not added to your total count See this sticky viewtopic.php?f=90&t=611960 specifically point number 2. (The list there might not be exactly up to date though, not sure.)

Technically I have less that $0 and I'm on the other side of the world from home :ohnoes: And people keep telling me they hope do the same one day.

Bring back the OTET :mrgreen: I'm not sure what the OP is meaning but whilst we are on the the otet topic... The plan for the otet was to include non-forum events (like other games & stuff) It was a way to try and generate ideas really. We got a few decent topics out of it at the time. Just needs quite a few people who are willing to put in some effort. And I'm sure the staff would be able to find the threads from the old otet forum if they really wanted. ;) But yeah it died out before because lack of activity on our part I think.

Nice on Peter. Have fun. :)

is tempting to post some stories from Thailand :shock:

Damn mods always messing with the forums :ohnoes: (All good. Just as long as it's not over-moderated. :P )

:shock: Nice one das! Good luck man.

Heh, I've been thinking about this quite a bit lately tbh, but I'll probably need to think about it a bit more to give a true answer :|

Yeah I remember it too. Apparently it's about a year old http://news10now.com/content/all_news/3 ... fault.aspx

Hey, thanks :) OTET just died out when I first left. I'm sure if someone had the time to do the planning and organising then it could be started up. Up to the current staff though I suppose.

Good to see Spain win it. 8-)

Congrats :mrgreen:

We used to bet on when the commentators would mention England. It's usually around the 10-15 minute mark. ;)

*reminisces back to the OTET*

'mon the Spain. Should be able to catch the semis & final pretty easily now I'm back in the bigger cities. I'm not surprised Russia has made it this far though, got a great team there.

24. Helping to raise the average just a little bit.

Definitely one I'll be trying to catch, though I wont mind if Portugal win. Still hoping Spain will go all the way though.

I remember it being suggested ages ago but was decided against. I like the feature on other forums I use, so I'm all for it.

I'm rooting for Spain this year, though they'll probably never win. Worst thing about being in Oz is that all the games are on at either 3am or 5am :( edit - nooo, what happened to my av?

Please don't edit out the original post when you have solved your problem. It means that it wont help anyone in the future with a similar problem. Even adding in an extra post on how you solved it would help.

Is there a specific post of yours you are talking about here? Looking through your post history I can only see two which have been removed in the past few days. Remember though not to jump on the throats of the staff, we do have a number of trainee mods at the moment who are still trying to learn the ropes. You also always have the ability to pm a mod or admin if you feel you want to discuss a removed post.
