Supposed to be reading Absalom, Absalom but all I can do is click refresh in hopes of there being a thread with the new NPD numbers. Agh!

 

[Beezy]

*raises hand*

 

[bheemer]

will it make a difference if you find out right away or 2 hours from now? i mean the market is closed so you cannot benefit from any information immediately.

either way you have at least an hour before it comes

 

[Odysseus]

Yeah, but who will be the sources? Last I heard (which has been a few days, I must admit), sonycowboy is away, bunkum is banned, and Datawhore hasn't been updating.

 

[Baron]

I'm supposed to be editing this 4th Quarter 2004 Oxygen Emitter System Progress Report for a client.

But....duhh...internet!

 

[human5892]

You know it!

I'm hitting it especially frantically now because the work day is almost over, and I don't think I'll be getting online after work at all. So I only have 17 more minutes for the numbers to arrive, damnit!

 

[Matlock]

Wow, NPD numbers are so fucking important that I can eschew reality to get meaningless sales data to back my meaningless posts.

 

[Kiriku]

I do that just about every day.

 

[Hollywood]

So NPD is coming out today? knew it had to be something with 400 plus on this forum.

 

[human5892]

Wow, NPD numbers are so fucking important that I can eschew reality to get meaningless sales data to back my meaningless posts.

And so important that they force Matlock to eschew reality in order to comment on the users who are interested in them!

 

[Cain]

It's a snow day, so my hitting refresh is about the only thing to do, aside from reading or playing games or going outside and walking around in ice and slush and freezing rain.

 

[fart]

<-- in class

 

[johnjohnson]

I'm in the last dungeon of Kotor 2, but keep hitting apple + R every 2 minutes.

bunkum is banned?

 

[human5892]

bunkum is banned?

Yeah, for posting that thread with the "Top 10 Uses For A GC In 2005" or something like that.

 

[Meier]

Yeah, for posting that thread with the "Top 10 Uses For A GC In 2005" or something like that.

Wait, so someone who is actually important and provides the forum with an invaluable service posts a GC troll post and is banned, but people who once wrote for GAF or are just snarky journalists can do it with impunity? Sounds fair.

Touche'.

Haha, important?

Yeah -- it was a stupid thread and all, but given some of the other things that are said around here sometimes (about all platforms, not just GC), I don't think it was ban-worthy, especially since (AFAIK) bunkum wasn't on the "black list" for anything previously.

 

[border]

Yeah, nobody that has access to the data is going to be able to post it. I wouldn't be getting all excited, if I were you...

Wasn't Bunkum's "Top 10" thread just a cut n' paste from some lame website? I don't think he should really get banned for that...

FUCK

banned for a month too! haha.

But don't worry, Mike Works promised he would be posting the NPD numbers himself instead this month.

How is he getting the data?

 

[GhaleonEB]

*raises hand*

Hi, my handle is GhaleonEB, and I'm an NPD addict.

 

[The Faceless Master]

oooh, NPD day... looks like i'll have to set mozilla to auto refresh

 

[bitwise]

How is he getting the data?

I don't think he really meant it.
