Recommended Posts

Tipit is possibly the only, and possibly the oldest, video-game-fansite-named-after-a-real-game!

I found this while doing some spring cleaning

My god that is incredible. Great find! I'm so tempted to crop that into a signature. I will sign the petition to change the tipit logo to that.

Not a clue. I can only find one reference to it. Found it in a google images search.

On a completely unrelated note, I'm hungry.

my difinition of noob is i dont like u, either u are better then me or u are worst them me

Buying spins make you a bad person...don't do it. It's like buying nukes for North Korea.

Well if it bothers you that the game is more fun now, then you can go cry in a corner. :shame:

your article was the equivalent of a circumcized porcupine

The only thing wrong with it is the lack of a percentage for when you need to stroke it.

And be sure to get the last drop out of living. Isn't it nice that "Tip It" acts as a toast? I'm 90 years old, and I think "Tip It!" even works pretty well as a motto for living to the fullest. So, Tip It! today.

I like the logo as it is, thank you very much.

 

Awesome find though.
