It probably didn't help I had it standing up, believe me it helps when you lay it on it's side, and don't forget to have a good circuit breaker strip, not an sp, because you'll lower the joules. Microsoft tried to argue with me on this saying to plug it into the wall, and nothing else.

Sux dude! I have the elite too. Got it about 2007 or so. I have gotten three rings, but not the four rings of death. *knock on wood*

I agree with the standing it up. The only time(s) I ever got the rings, was when I had it standing up. Since the last time, I have been laying it down and havn't gotten them since. Plus, I also have mine plugged into a surge protector strip.

I'd join the dark side if they had more games I liked, and the online was better. I need some bandaids for my car, hit a sign on our neglected roads from the township. Will be getting a lawyer, and I have an army of people to help, and video proof for two years of these roads, and then our furnace crapped out, go figure. I might need to become a stripper so I can makes me lots of money right now lol. I'll put pics up soon, but any who, how's everyone been?

Pennsylvania's roads are the worst I've been on, ever...and that's saying something lol. Syn...if you become a stripper, I'm going to avoid PA altogether jkjk!

Sorry about your car though, I'm sure things will work out well

Been pretty good, lol still saving up for my 8, and waiting...waiting waiting...story of my life haha! I wish you the best for your 8! We still need to arrange a party sort of thing at your place. It's just so hard to get a hold of some people...maybe we should organize it and then tell people it's their fault for missing out if they don't go lol

Downtown in PA cities might be bad but PA for me in general has been fine with roads in all the years I've traveled there.

Let's get this party started lol. I agree vlaze about the roads, and so on, but some of these townships don't do anything, hell our road is still completely one big sheet of snow and ice since they don't put down anything. Most the back roads we've been on in the past couple days are basically cleared.

As for waiting for your 8, sometimes waiting will pay off big.

Hopefully if I make it to the first meet I'll have most my stuff on, but it won't be painted. Here's the picture of my ouchy. Sorry for the quality, it was taken on my phone.



And here is my nice road of solid ice with no treatment. Funny thing, I spun out and couldn't do anything, but I was able to drive right out of the ditch.

Ohhh syn! that's so sad! I'm really glad you're safe though, the car can be replaced, the driver can't.

However, this is precisely why I say Pennsylvania has the worst roads, and even worse road care for situations such as snow/ice. If I may ask, what specifically did the car hit? It's not in the pics.

The damage wasn't to bad, just the back door, bottom corner of the front door, and a little of the rocker panel. It was a 35 mph sign. I think that damn sign did it on purpose since I was going a little under 30, it must of got jealous.

I can be replaced, me and rory made a clone of me in our secret lad, and sync us together hahahaha.

I wish I could've used the money we spent on the house to buy a turbo for my car. We redid the breaker box, all electrical, 1/4 of plumbing, tankless water heater, heat pump, new furniture, remodeled the living room, and now I'm broke haha. I need to find someone that knows how to tune the 8, just got an access port, flywheel & clutch.
