None for me. If I picked up that many at one time the wife would out me out with the cat! Tight work.
Re: What is an ALT in here?
Whenever anyone here says "alt" I always think about those crazy alt girls I used to party with in high school, good times.

Asking for a friend, huh?
Oops, I hadn’t seen this post yet. Tied, if not the winning POTD.

This thread seems counterproductive.Well, it was either this or another "Oh look how great the cacs is" thread. THKS!
I think you must secretly have a crush on CAC and just pretend to dislike it so much. You bring up the topic of CAC as much as anyone I know and it’s often in threads like this, which have nothing to do with CAC.

Why would someone want two names?
A split personality?
We are all adults here, right?
No, we are not all adults.

Stacks is the most difficult regarding bid limits. At HA I have no limit, and at GC my limit is 1 mil. It didn’t start that high, but it seems like Ian gradually increases it as time goes on. With Stacks it’s not difficult to get it raised, but unlike the others, requires some action on your part.HA required me to fill out a detailed credit application, and to provide proof of available funds.
Interesting. I once accidentally bid $99,999,999 on heritage and it took my bid. [The 9 key got stuck.] Do i havw to add that i don't have $100 million?
I am reminded of a horrifying programming bug I created. A manager want to have a text notification sent to his phone when certain events happened. I tested using my own flip phone, which had a 5 cent charge per text message. I only planned to send a couple of messages, but I put a LOOP statement in the wrong place. By the time I stopped my code, horrified, I had rung up $3000 in charges. Fortunately, I called customer support at the phone company, and they agreed that nobody could receive 60,000 messages in one minute, and canceled all the charges.
Do I have to add that I didn’t have $3000, much less $100,000,000 as in your case!
Edit: Another time, I was pushing myself to work past midnight. I nodded out at the keyboard. When I woke up, the screen was literally filled from top to bottom with ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ’s.
Re: 2024 New England Patriots Discussion Thread
Ofcourse Ju Ju Smith pretty much matched his entire Patriots career production in last night's game alone.
