I wonder if its something like if you have ALL the points for a game you are considered TIED for first place. meaning everyone that has all points in a game are ranked first.



edit:
looking at it more, yeah thats it. every game he has 100% in, he is scored as number 1.

Nevermind, it just means he got all 1000 gamer points for that game.
Everyone who has finished the game 100% is ranked #1 for that game.
Oh well, keith had his 15mins of fame.

well, yes- compass is similar to narnia in genre. the cgi, story, characters are all really good. but, the movie has gotten a lot of bad publicity due to the right-wing christian coalition coming out of the woodwork to boycott it like the bubonic plague.

i watched the movie 2x's and don't know anything about what the heck they're protesting about. it's a good movie and worth seeing in the theater i thought. my company just didn't know how to market it i guess. <shrugs>

most defiently, he's owned this car for years, and put alot of money into it, taken it to many racetracks.. he knows how to drive, so i wasnt nervous at all..... it was just a freak accident.... it happens..



not understanding the comment here....



that was kinda the point though....



very true.... i completely agree with you here.... but again, thats why they call them accidents... hes a very compitent driver... it just wasnt his night..... even professional racecar drivers crash!



in this situation, i believe his driving skill is superior to mine... he has more track time, and is 10 years older than me.. so he also has more seat time....



all in all.... **** happens... doesnt mean hes a bad driver...... the street is a very empty industrial street, so no lives were at stake (minus our own)(but we accept the risk anytime we do these things, so doesw anyone getting behind the wheel)
Ok, good feedback. Good thing you are both ok.

That's why I try to resist like hell driving fast on the street/mountains.

A track has controlled enviromental conditions. No surprises around the corners.

Except cars that spin a 180 and are looking at you in the face.

You were in his car when that happened? It was pretty sad to hear about that. It sounds like the car is not totalled though.

ok, sorry guys....I missed the forum on Thursday as I left work early not feeling well...and then again on Friday, left early due to a migraine. I hate those things. They take you down for that day, and you feel fuzzy the following day.

As to my celebrity status.....it doesn't really make a difference now, as my hard drive fried. You guys now have about a two week grace period to try and catch up to my gamepoints. Once that new hard drive arrives, I'm gonna be playing like crazy to get back to where I need to be to move forward. Probably burn out my box next as it is really starting to get LOUD. It started making the same noise when the first box crashed.

As far as plans once/if the RX Z88M sells....Erica and I have been offered my mom's 99 blazer. That blazer has the same blue book as our 99 s10 truck. So. I'm gonna try and sell that for the money needed for the Blazer...and since that is a fairly big vehicle, I may just get a brand new, cheap commuter car to ruin back and forth on my drives. Sentra, Civic....Fit....I don't know.

I've been seeing a lot of used 08 Lancers already...i wonder why...maybe because people end up not liking them? The Lancer is a good option though. Failry big 4 -door car and fairly cheap as a base model (which is kinda ugly)....I may end up getting the GTS version which has the body pieces, 18 inch wheels and tech pacakge inside.....I don't know. First things first....cars have to sell.


Keep up on this page, as I'm going to download some of the pics from our Rock Band party soon....

I think I found who was stealing all the beverages....

I think it is that "hands in the cookie jar" look that gave him away.
