Seriously, that store ever gonna go live?

thrash1294 12-09-05 04:34 PM

I think the winner will be the person with the 50,000 post ;)

Talking Poker 12-09-05 04:53 PM

I'm seriously going to try to get to it tonight. I've just been unmotivated.

Penguinfan 12-09-05 05:04 PM

You know the more I think about it:

You say you don't have enough time to play as many cash games as you should, you haven't got the store up, you don't have a regular job,

WHAT THE HELL DO YOU DO?

rookette22 12-09-05 05:14 PM

What do you mean he doesn't have a regular job? What does he do for a living?

rookette22 12-09-05 05:16 PM

Hey TP , hows about you tell us a little about yourself?

And maybe we can all share something about ourselves too. :cool:

studiopet 12-09-05 05:23 PM

Read away Rock.


rookette22 12-09-05 05:29 PM

But I wanted to start it in here ; maybe that's what the contest was about lol

Getting to know the real TP 'uno a uno'

Edit: Hey thx Studiopet; I hadn't read that far down in that thread.

Hey TP ; have a question for you; you once posted about dreams, did you by chance have a dream the night before the 9/11 disaster? And do you ever think about how great it is to be alive? Like when you mentioned that part in your post, it literally sent shivers down my back. So I was just wondering.

FatRufus 12-09-05 05:39 PM

I've run out of ideas to win the contest. I say you give me the money and then everybody is happy lol. If there's a more interesting contest for $50 out i want to know. lol

Talking Poker 12-09-05 07:54 PM

Firstly, winning this contest has nothing to do with getting this thread off topic over and over again, so no, that's not it. So I'll answer your dream question in the correct thread.

And, for the record, I knew I could make you quiver someday... just didn't think it would be quite this soon... ;)

Oh wait - you said shiver. Dammit! :D

Favre[4] 12-09-05 07:59 PM

Everyone stop posting in this thread and no one ever post in it again and lets see what happens.

FatRufus 12-09-05 08:25 PM

I wanna win favre so i might as well keep posting. I dont know about you but $50 sounds good to me.

Hawt 12-09-05 08:29 PM

I doubt that whoever posts in this thread the most will be the winner. or maybe you're on to something.

rookette22 12-09-05 08:39 PM

Hmm is the 50 bucks still up for grabs? Hey TP I was just thinking about something; can you guess what it was I'm thinking about? :p

rookette22 12-09-05 08:40 PM

Ok well the 666 curse if over with; who thinks I should go our and party and who thinks I should stay home and relax and go party tmr night?

rookette22 12-09-05 08:48 PM

~~~~~~~~~~~~ 50posts / $50.00 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~

sounds good to me tyvm :D

EDIT: come on TP; the suspense is killing me here. Did I win? Please please please....... say I won ! :p

2nd Edit: Where is he??? There should be a buzzer so that we can buzzz the ppl we're looking for lol

3rd Edit: He's replying to the dream post...grrrrrr he skipped right over this one; which could mean that, I didn't win or that he's just making me suffer especially after he reads that post in the dream thread lol

4th Edit: shhhh he's here ! lol

Talking Poker 12-09-05 08:58 PM

Yeah.

No winner yet.

Talking Poker 12-09-05 08:58 PM

Quit stalking me!!!

LOL. :D

rookette22 12-09-05 09:00 PM


Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr...........How much do I hate thee ; let me count the ways .....right now about 50 posts worth :mad: ;)

FatRufus 12-09-05 09:24 PM

wow i give up on this contest i have no clue what your looking for

Favre[4] 12-09-05 09:45 PM

jamayo i love ur sig.

kmb13592 12-10-05 10:35 AM

Hey TP. Did I win yet?

420Smurf 12-10-05 11:19 AM

TP, the things you do here are pretty awesome I must say, had a week worth of moving to take care of but I am pretty much done with that and can get some time here a bit, Just wanted to say you are awesome with the free rolls, and contests, etc., not to mention a wsop seat(WOW), gl everyone on the Surprise lol.

rookette22 12-10-05 12:47 PM

I think I got it !

Leave the forum for 50days / come back for the 50 dollars ?!~ :rolleyes:

olysports 12-10-05 09:19 PM

hmm, this contest sounds fishy. I think TP is the winner, since it is his money. That way, he won't lose anything. ;) He is just tricking us to get us all worked up for nothing. ;)

Talking Poker 12-10-05 09:36 PM

Yeah, that sounds exactly like me.

Talking Poker 12-10-05 09:43 PM

I'm actually a bit surprised that not a single person has thought of something that seems fairly obvious to me.

I'll give you a hint: I just closed it, so it's can't grow any more.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm................ how interesting. What in the world could I be talkign about?

Everyone thought 10 pages was significant for some reason, but no one thought of this. Huh.

I won't say if this is or is not the contest, but I will tell you from here on out, if I even THINK you are flooding this thread with useless or off topic posts, you'll be disqualified from winning the $50. And I just might delete your posts too.

With that said.... I think we'll get there eventually.

Oh, and that's not the contest anyway.

Confused yet? Good.

PShabi 12-10-05 09:50 PM

The first person who kills himself as a result of reading this thread wins.

Gimme a second.

Talking Poker 12-10-05 09:51 PM

Nice!

Er, no. I think someone already guessed that anyway.

wdson01 12-10-05 10:00 PM

um alright ill take a stab....your new store!!!

Zybomb 12-10-05 10:01 PM

:eek: :eek: :eek:

I am 100% done opening this thread :mad:

Talking Poker 12-10-05 10:07 PM

Me too.

GL Blibbity. Sucker.

helmuths henchman 12-11-05 06:14 AM

I remember you talking about how Pokerstars is better than Partypoker. Did you by chance close your Party or Empire account. It makes sense cause if you close it your bankroll can't grow any more. Just an idea.

helmuths henchman 12-11-05 06:18 AM

Or maybe you opened a special bank account where you were saving money until you got 10,000 dollars. Since you won your way in now you closed the account. If its closed it can't grow any more. And thats where the 50 dollar prize is coming out of. If i'm wrong on my last 2 guesses am I at least close?

rookette22 12-11-05 07:42 AM

This has to be it!

TP : You've mentioned we should 'stop' stalking you, so I was thinking maybe you wanted us doing just the opposite. So I started stalking you more and more, but didn't have a clue as to what I was searching for, until I read last night's post. ( Which btw, how mean of you to give a hint while I wasn't even around to see it :( ) Anyway, when I read this," I'll give you a hint: I just closed it, so it's can't grow any more." I went searching for all your recent locked threads.

And luckily found this one: which makes too much sense not to be the winner!

On .....

12-04-2005 : closed : Free $25 For Two New Members! @ 9:03 pm

12-04-2005 : opened : $50 Surprise Contest.... @ 9:19 pm

Well I'm thinking this has to be it...but I'm not gonna get all excited again for no reason, not until you tell me, I won! lol

Edit: Ok, had a party last nite and have a class at 1p.m., it's only 7:45 am right now.... so I'm going to grab some more zz's. Wake me up only if I won ... :p

rookette22 12-11-05 12:29 PM

Well I'm off to class ...guess my last post wasn't the winner for this contest so........w/e I tried my best this time ; so I give up!

Cya all later....

Talking Poker 12-11-05 12:43 PM

I have no diea what you are talking about or suggesting or asking.

Sorry.

Talking Poker 12-11-05 12:44 PM

Sorry, but I'm not really sure what you are talking about either.

rookette22 12-11-05 12:48 PM


Now I'm gonna be late for class but ..........

I meant you closed one contest to open this one up. Damn ...I'm gonna need to kick someone soon!

Later!

Talking Poker 12-11-05 05:00 PM

You guys missed what I was getting at. I thought it was obvious. I was suggesting that if this became the longest thread on the site, the person to break the old record would be the winner.

But that's not it.

It will happen when it happens. I just hope it's soon, because even I am tiring of this contest now. I can't speed up time though, so I guess it's just a matter of waiting until we have a winner.

Talking Poker 12-11-05 05:01 PM

And for the record... the winner of this contest will be the person WHO WINS IT.... not the person who guesses what the contest is.

rookette22 12-11-05 05:06 PM

You messin with our minds man lol

RaWrRRRRRRrrrrrr..........

Talking Poker 12-11-05 05:17 PM

Not at all. Well, not now, anyway. I've just noticed a lot of people lately writing some random theory and then wondering where their $50 is... and that's not how it works. You need to be the winner to win - not just have a theory about what needs to happen in order for someone to win.

Like, I still don't understand how me closing an old contest thread (the one asking for nominations, which I closed when I put the poll up) and starting a new contest thread has anything to do with anything. Even if those things were related (and they aren't), how does that mean someone would win $50? And why would that someone by you? Just because you noticed that I closed a thread a week ago? That seems like a pretty stupid contest, don't you think?

rookette22 12-11-05 05:54 PM

Hey I was just going by the hint you left on this thread.

You said , " I'll give you a hint: I just closed it, so it's can't grow any more."

That's where I got the notion to look up posts you closed. Oh just forget it!

rookette22 12-11-05 06:28 PM

Well you left us with nothing really. You said it was a contest and that's it. We don't have a clue as to what you want from us. You tell us you don't want us posting random stuff, but this thread is just that. We were guessing as to what the contest was about. You only just now in your last post told us to stop the guessing. Would've been loads easier if you had just said that from the start! Wouldn't have maxed out this thread for no reason.

Is it even alright to ask questions?

Talking Poker 12-11-05 06:32 PM

Well, the thread you found was closed a week ago. The thread I closed when I posted was the longest one on this site.

Talking Poker 12-11-05 06:35 PM

Of course. And when did I say to stop guessing? I don't remember saying that. I said guessing it correctly won't make you the winner (you'll still need to actually win), and I said that posting tons and tons of off topic posts in this thread (to make it the longest thread ever, which is what I thought SOMEONE would come up with) would get you disqualified. I never said you had to stop guessing though - that's not off topic.

rookette22 12-11-05 06:36 PM

Hmmm...you are confusing me again. :(

Is that a hint or not?

And whatever is to happen, does it happen in here or all over the forum?

rookette22 12-11-05 06:56 PM
