I am getting a TINY bit freek'd by this and other bored happenings, sorry, board happening of late.

Gameboy - WTF are Mamster's:-doh! :confused

And like an episode of Lost - where is Lancelot's post that good2talk quotes:eek: - and how does Bronks know what board traffic existed 5hrs ago :eek: (i.e., I thought the 'viewing this thread' number had been turned off).:eek:

Freeky Madness.:eek: :eek:

Find out next week, when and if rolf comes back from France, to find out .... in the next instalment of SatellitesGetMeOutOf HereParadiseIslandInvasionLostBigBrotherPrisonBreak.

I'm going to bed. My Hot chocolate went cold by the time 'Preview Post' came back with a preview:mad:

Have Fun.

One of the Mods made a typo in a posting (step forward Analoguesat) and mistakenly typed and M instead of an H.

Of course this was like throwing a bucket of offal into a pack of sharks and he had the p*** taken out of him mercilessly by the other Mods for weeks afterwards.

Just goes to show that you should take care with your spelling - just like your teacher used to tell you.

who's online: 209 members 0 guests

is that the reason?

The guests don't show on the who's online page, only in the admin control panel at the moment. A rule of thumb is around 3 times as many guests as those who are logged in.

It was something to do with the servers running slow, and I meant to ask if the hamster that powered our system had died

Analogue might have mis-spelt hamsters; but there is one thing for sure - Admin Rolf really does own some mamsters. Maybe the server is slow coz he took them to France with him?

BTW - the old wrinkly in the picture (now adopted by said boss) is a technician testing out the first MOOG.

The Mamster must never be forgotten - why do you think I have so many posts!

AS - it was the best typo ever. Let anyone who hasn't made one say different.

Just wait until June when the 'Rambo' Mamsters arrive to power the new servers - you may not be laughing then...

Nothing personal AS I honestly couldn't remember who started it - and it doesn't matter.

Just some members with 'great' memories keep reminding us!

Mamsters, Beavers where's it all going to end?

:-smallmam

What's Portuguese for Mamster? - LOL
