jsnickle, Congratulations on being the top player. Unfortunately, they stopped the contest a few months ago, so now you have another thing to be "upset and frustrated" about. Cheers to you!
48 hours(ish) and counting... I'm going to miss ppx.
mg.mikael: You might want to think about what your saying, BEFORE you post a strong comment like that. arkadi: Well, you jumped ahead of me... way ahead... awesome job:)
"how cute, you still believe that they actually care what we want, and or think." Actually, I know they don't care, but I figured I would ask anyways.
I doubt that anything is going to close before the end. Opening new props is just for Taylors amusement, like a slap in the face.
So... are we going to try this, or not? I would like to see how low we can get this prop; just for the hell of it. This might be the last fun thing we do...
I had a "DICCUSION" once when playing dodge ball. I couldn't walk for a week, and it hurt to urinate.
arkadi: How do you cover a prop, that was halted back in February? Oh, and your $30,000 away from 56th place... can you catch me? *** that was a lighthearted taunt*** Rant: I am beginning to think that, this game has just been abandoned all together by popsci, and I wouldn't be surprised if the props never pay out.
I'm going to assume, that the admins will ignore this thread too... I understand that they have more important work to do, but it only takes 15 min to skim the forums, and give a quick yes, no answer. Some of us never got answers to other questions. I will try this quiz thing once it launches, but if I see the same neglect, as was evident with ppx, I won't stick around too long. We the players are like pets, we all need support, and our bellies rubbed, otherwise we run away to a better game. Please don't ignore the forums.
I have the same complaint, it seems like ppx is turning into an after thought for popsci. Dose taylor answer questions in the forums anymore? I had a question regarding the leagues two months ago, and I never got a reply, from any of the admins. And why do the props take so long to pay out? I understand she has a ton of work, but just how long dose it take to halt and payout two props, 5 days? What about the SEEDS prop that halted back in February, why hasn't it payed out yet, it's been 3 months? And I would also like to add that, popsci mag is losing some of it's appeal as well. I have been a subscriber to this magazine for almost 8 years. Lately, some of the articles have been written with some really corny humor. I have noticed this with some of the props on ppx as well. Please stop with the corny humor. aadailey
