Snaking the HIVE

[megamania]

numpties?

If you look in Wiki you see the face of a 39 year old over weight guy with a chemical burn on his forehead wearing glasses with a three week stubble on chin. Known alias include: Andy, Andrew, Dean, "That comicbook guy", weirdo, "oh him" (said with a sick demenure) and more recently megamania or mania.

Mega, how much are you currently paying for your internet sevice?

At this point... 20/month.

I'm looking to do either the phone company's net this winter or Comcast this spring. I'm sick of not being able to be a part of so much on the net because of speed issues.


oh...and "Hi".

 

[megamania]

It's free. Go here to get the rules.

Will I be able to?

It took me 8 minutes (I timed it) to Wiki '2012'. Are you ready for everything ending as you know it? (previously was the release date for 4e... wished to avoid bad press so advanced it to 2008..... mixed press.)


just kidding.

Comcast is the way to go for high speed service. I've been using it since my dads company started paying the bill for it. Since the company is no longer paying for due to my father's demise, I have to foot the bill, but it is $50 well spent. The internet and televisual entertainment is my livelihood.

Of course, the cost per month doesn't include the cost of equipment; that can run up to $150, most likely less if you don't buy into the Pre-N hardware.

Heh. I getting pressure to bow down to 4e.

The only player from the last group without a substance abuse issue bought 4e books last month and now wants to play FR 4e. Called me this morning (yesterday morning)

Trying to stick with 3.5. Can't ignore the thousands of dollars in books I have for 3/3.5 ed.

gutshot!

I was susposed to do Comcast this past month but September was a major disaster for money. Spent about 800 dollars I did not expect and another 1400 in medical that as it turns out will not be covered by my horrid insurance.

Here is what I can do for you; since I own the Wireless G hardware and would like to buy into the N hardware once it is finalized I'll send you my older hardware. For free, I'll even absorb the cost of shipping.

I'm pretty sure this should be happening within the next year. So as long as we stay in contact, all I'll need from you is your address once I have completed the upgrade.

 

[megamania]

Hate to go but I gotta sleep.

Still thinking out what to do if I start a new group (earliest grains of an idea have already begun that involves artifacts, dragons and intelligent swords with.... of course... a Drogan trap. level 1-10. Time will see.


Good night.

op.... hold up hold on.....

Appreciate the thought but I'm still "feeling out" Comcast. In September when I researching the idea of using them I had THREE different offers-

Their website said one thing

Their sales rep said another

...and each of the local workers, rep, cable guy and phone guy said something else.

scares me a bit.
