The Stingray Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Why do you guys write "reserved"? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitik Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 I was just going to ask the same question. I've never played this game before, so I'm a little confused. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Gittes Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 The "reserved" posts are for predictions, which we'll put in there sometime before April 26. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichWS Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Didn't play last year. I'd like a spot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Stingray Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Calm down dude, it wasn't meant to start a fight. It was more of a joke... Take it easy, lol. You can say it nicely, too, no need to caps me like I'm a moron. I'm pretty sure people read posts that aren't caps locked, too. This is baumer's house, and you're Rick James-ing all over his couch. Very bad use of intelligence. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baumer Posted April 3, 2013 Author Share Posted April 3, 2013 I wasn't yelling at you Ch...I just simply want people to know that the game does start April 26th.Part of the problem with the first post is that it is so big that some people don't read it. So it's important for people to know that the date has changed this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChD Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Am I really the only one who was bored enough and read the whole post? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted April 3, 2013 Author Share Posted April 3, 2013 Well the reason why the first post is so long is because there is a lot of information in it. So people actually should read all the way through it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tower Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Why do you guys write "reserved"? So that I can then edit the post with my predictions, that way I can easily keep track of it on the first page rather than have it dumped wherever the thread happened to get to when I was predicting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Founder / Operator Shawn Robbins Posted April 4, 2013 Founder / Operator Share Posted April 4, 2013 (edited) So that I can then edit the post with my predictions, that way I can easily keep track of it on the first page rather than have it dumped wherever the thread happened to get to when I was predicting. I think this partly began because, at Mojo, we couldn't link directly to posts. Even with bookmarking, you'd have to find your post on a page. Here, though, we can link directly to any post on the forum. For example: http://forums.boxoffice.com/index.php?/topic/9467-baumers-summer-game-season-6-starts-april-26th/page-4#entry709973 At this point, I think reserving is more of a time-honored tradition for the first thread of the game than a full-on necessity.

baumer Posted April 4, 2013 Author Share Posted April 4, 2013 Guys, I know I keep saying this but I will have the rest of the game up this weekend. I just have a lot on my plate right now.
