Where am I losing my money this week?
May 11, 2010 – 12:56 pmBakesment debut?
Halfpenny?
The 06415?
We LOVE playing in Milford
Bakesment debut?
Halfpenny?
The 06415?
Evidently Pete is going to host, since the Bakesment still isn’t ready for prime time.
I’m going to turn off the Ning site now; if you ever want to add quotes, the password is Zig’s game.
ATTENDANCE EDIT:
IN: Tim, Zig, Pit
PROBABLE: Curry, Bake, Jamie
TENTATIVE: Jay
NO WORD: Anybody else.
So as I mentioned to you dimwits, Ning.com is going to start charging for their little page. Since I lose enough money on Thursdays and shell out $10 a year to own this domain anyway, we’ll be transitioning back to here.
As you may or may not remember, each of you has a Thursdaypoker.com email address, which is Gmail. Zig and I are the only ones who use it; but you all have accounts with logins. By using those logins, you will be able to create calendar events such as the one listed to the right. Hopefully by sending out email ‘invitations’ to events, it will work the same way to keep a tally of who is in and who is out.
Since most of you have never logged in, I’ll have to send you your temp passwords again. I’ll look them up later.
EDIT: In the meantime, you should have gotten an email invitation for this week’s game. In the email, you can click ‘yes’, ‘no’, or ‘maybe’.
I’m trying to figure out a way to make it automatically display attendees, but I have not as of yet. If you don’t like it, suck I dick.
Per Pit’s idea, I’ve set up a chat that can be used during baseball games and the like. You need to be registered to get in; if you haven’t registered on here you can find the link on the righthand side under the ‘random pics’.
On a different note, I’m amused to see that quotes added this year are on this page, too…
You all should have gotten an email (check your spam filter; that’s where mine went) with the subject “Come join me on Thursday Poker”. Leads you here:
http://thursdaypoker.ning.com/
Figured I’d throw something else up there and give it a shot since you all seem to hate this setup so much…
Check it out and give me some feedback. If it works, I’ll make the switch permanent.
Captain Morgan – Check. Busch – Check. Cards-Check. If someone doesn’t have a good night of cards – Check please!
