Prolly just you kinda still mad at the 411 in general. I think any competition is fun.... however I dont believe any other forum ever has a chance at winning as team ironmods always seems to take it home :Dizzy:

hell every time pretty much jeff 2Chesapeaks myself, bill and gunny have competed... but now with the diluted classes it could get interesting as this time there are no cooling restrictions :thumbsup:

Not trying to offend anyone when I say this but I'm not mad and never was mad at 411 just alot of douches running around there. The forum headed in a different direction than what I liked. Kinda like EVGA pt. II. Also the forums were always setup in a hard to navigate way and still are and my dumb ass offered my ideas in the beginning just to get them dismissed like I was a retarded monkey. I'm glad they didn't get used as we wouldn't have been able to use some of those ideas here in the beginning when things were being setup. We would have looked like a copycat forum in a way. Then the kicker of the deal is when the owner showed back up and everybody was just a swingin off his nuts and then boned again! Comical I will say as well as a lesson in what not to do with a forum. :laughing:

Can't help ya either. I tried reading thru it a long time ago and looked poorly setup to me as well as it really didn't make much sense to me either. That might explain why the same 4-5 forums only compete in it every time.

The Warz is just a contest, nothing more. Any website/group can get in a give it a try. Its actually ok if you get into it with your website/group.

Problems tho

People waiting for the last minute to enter scores, which makes it a mess. Rules change to often and to many benches to run in the past.

Yes but the site owner just showing up one day out of the blue causing all kinds of heck, then just disappearing in the blink of an eye was the last straw for me.

Oh yeah he did do a few good things when he did show up that one time, like helpping that one person go away ;)

hahahaha yes that one guy did go away which was good. he took a few with him in the process, but no big loss in my eyes.

all in all OCA is in a very strong point as long as we stay the way we are and dont let the spam bs and argumentative crap show up like XS does. :thumbdown:

They started that after all the flame wars that would go on non stop, say anything about NVIDA, Intel, AMD, ATI or shoot just about anything and hell would break loose. Plus they banned a lot of people who would not conform LOL.

I pretty much just look at the sections I am interested in and leave all the rest alone.

Man.... I am sooooooooo in the dark. Is it because I skip the drama queen posts, or? I hope I am not one of the Douches :blush: I like posting there because many of you are there. If you did not, I would not. Simple as that. But if I am one of the Douches I can fix that right quick and get a sex change =]

The local ice house here told me they had a surcharge on small purchases and that was to get the small frys like me to go to the grocery stores to purchase it. I asked him how much I would have to buy not to be a small fry and he was talking 50+lbs. I only need 10 lbs at a time or so.

I can get dry ice here for around $1.25/lb from the local grocery stores. Only about 50% of the local Wal-Mart's carry it though.
