mensch Posted September 1, 2000 Share Posted September 1, 2000 ok people I'm taking a bet the prize is a suprize (no not a ride in a van) heh give me your guess when Peng Thread hits 2000 you have to give the date and time. the one that is on target or the closest wins and gets... something from germany sent to them. (I'll try to confirm the exact time with BTS). just a note any altered dates will disqualify you from the Bet so first guess it written in stone Im writing down the dates from each person to make sure.. also all times will be assumed from EST. ---- Thats not fair they have Tigers!

Hundminen Posted September 1, 2000 Share Posted September 1, 2000 What is that thread all about anyway? I don't have time to sift through all that nonsense. Can anybody boil it down for me and describe it in 25 words or less? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Berlichtingen Posted September 1, 2000 Share Posted September 1, 2000 Word of warning folks. If the date you choose is getting close, don't hop over there and post 300 messages. That kinda crap contributed to the Great Release Crash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff Heidman<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> Makesnosense just tried that, but we are above that sort of nonsense, so that won't work. Hundminen: Hamster/Chinchilla debate, noble taunting, sewers, closets, gentlemanly challenges and kicking the opponents you just beat in the face when they are down already. Minnesota Joe, if you have an issue with it, don't go there. But I will go lightly on you because we derive our second name for the thread from your only post. Make sure you make no other, that way we just may(!) think fondly of you. ------------------ Andreas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mensch Posted September 2, 2000 Author Share Posted September 2, 2000 dear Jeff Heidman, Berlichtingen, Hundminen and Minnesota Joe, If I could change the title, it should have been "contest" cuz I don't win if anyone is wrong (that is a bet) this is just a contest I'm just giving out a prize (money out of my own pocket) becuase beeing a silent admirer of the Peng file and its enjoyable reading. You on the other hand if you don't wish to play or take a guess then don't. leave my thread in peace your swearing or instigating manor does not make you better then me, on the contrary it proves you have a bulling style. I also emailed BTS asking if this was ok because the thought did occur to me some "people" may come in and try to shoot this thread down.. sometimes people say what they think but never think what they say. sad realy, apparently having a sport of fun in this forum seems to be kicked or punched when it pops up. I guess I should limit my self to abusing people, its amazing the ballocks one has to insult another person when they dont have to look them in the eye. if your manor offline is such as it is online I am glad I have the pleasure in not encountering it. as mentioned before take a guess no cost no loss, aside from me sending something from germany to the winner.

Instigating? All I was just pointing out to those that plan on partaking of your contest a very real danger. I have no problem with your idea, i just don't want to see the entire board brought down like it was before. With that said... Oct. 3rd, 5:00pm.

Guest Germanboy Posted September 2, 2000 Share Posted September 2, 2000 Heh Greg, chill. Berli was just pointing out that there once was the 'refreshing monkeys' incident (about the same calibre as the Mukden Incident) on this board, at the time of the Gold Demo release. Brought the board down. Now if someone gets so overzealous to get one of your grandma's sweaters that he is going to post twohundred or such posts just to make it time-wise, there could be problems. And if Hundminen insists on being an adult, let him be. We know better than that, natsch natsch... Oh, and Sept.27th, 10.40 GMT. Seems you learned something while looking for aliens, nothing like a good contest, eh? ------------------ Andreas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark IV Posted September 2, 2000 Share Posted September 2, 2000 Many of you have expressed concerns in private correspondence about the 2000th post to the Peng Challenge thread, or P2K, as the media have come to call it. There are wild rumors that the board will crash, the server will split in twain, and the Demons of the Cesspool will spill out over the earth. People, there is no cause for alarm. The Pengennium will not actually begin until the 2001st post anyway. Have your Mac or PC checked for P2K compliance, and relax. The biggest danger will be human panic in reaction to this superstition, possibly resulting in another "Day of the Refreshing Monkeys" (and I'm not talking about a minty aftertaste, as those who were here will ruefully recall). P2K is a safe and manageable milestone on CM's road to greatness. Please remain calm.

Mark IV Posted September 3, 2000 Share Posted September 3, 2000 September 23, 2000 12:00 Noon PST Fingers, don't fail me now. At this time, that means a mere 644+ posts. Hell, Germanboy and Seanachai can do that on their own (if Seanachai posted each paragraph separately, we could see it by the 10th). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Mirage2k Posted September 3, 2000 Share Posted September 3, 2000 Speaking of the Peng thread, when it's all over (if it's ever over) I think I'm going to print it out and tape it to my wall. The material in there beats any TV comedy. Or maybe I won't...depends on what I ate the night before. -Andrew ------------------ VOTE BLAH FOR PRESIDENT! Throw me a frickin' smiley, people!
