Speaking of semantics, that's not a "couple" of things, that's three things (or a "few")! Stick out tongue

It made me think of the Monty Python Spanish Inquisition sketch ... AMONGST the things ...

Pizza guys are getting worse and worse looking. I guess all the good ones went into porn.

That is from the TV series ... which well preceded the films.  I was already a major fan by the time Holy Grail came out ...

lol...I hear that a lot from my wife and mother in law when discussing film, though you saying it actually has more relevance here.  When they say it, it's concerning films like 'It's a Wonderful Life' or 'Labyrinth' (with David Bowie) that I've missed.

I haven't appeared in this thread in at least 5 pages, so I must justify my full email inbox.  Hear me fellows!  Lend me your ear!

Oh, what sad times are these when passing ruffians can say Ni at will to old ladies. There is a pestilence upon this land, nothing is sacred. Even those who arrange and design shrubberies are under considerable economic stress in this period in history.

I believe that is all that must be said here.  First and last, first and final. Confused

So there are exceptions to “EVERYTHING”?  Really?  That’s news to me!

And when you say “CE/LE games aren't included when he says games below 950 points aren't affected”, does that mean you actually spoke with zanna to clarify that, because you seem pretty sure about it?  Or are you just assuming that’s what he meant?  If so, that’s okay!  Maybe that IS what he meant… but what I was simply pointing out originally is that it was a little confusing when there seemed to be inconsistencies in his statements (through acceptable human error I’m sure, because zanna’s the man)!  So I’m not doubting that there is a possibility that’s what he meant, but it was still a little confusing the way it was written.  Then you replied with “it’s really not that confusing” (twice), trying (<---key word) to act all smart and clever.  Anyway… so since I said it was a LITTLE confusing and you said it wasn’t THAT confusing… what would you have liked me to say?  “It’s somewhere between not confusing and a little confusing”?  Would that have satisfied you?  I’ll edit my comment if you’d like! Wink

You're taking anything I say and making sound how you want it to. You knew EXACTLY what I've been saying. And no, it isn't that I KNOW that CE/LE games aren't included, but it's what a reasonable person would have concluded through the information he gave, and actually looking at the current list of games. Rather than do something that simple, you'd just like to make stupid replies trying to prove that everything I say is wrong, when it's not and you know it.

I'm done replying to you or this thread for that matter. It's turned from a discussion about the points increase, to a pissing match, and I'm sick of it.

And by "here" I mean merely in my last post.  By all means carry on the pissing match!  I have set the record at all the way to the top of an 8 ft wall!  Beat that gents!  Separate the boys from the men!  YesBig Smile

This may have been mentioned before in this thread (or others) but I didn't want to tread back thru 30 pages to see.

I think raising the point cap is fine but why not do some staggered pricing for games that are complete, disc & manual, or disc only?  It seems unfair that if you request the disc or cart only that you still have to pay the full amount of points given for a complete package.

You finally gave up, did you?  I think you're better off not replying anyway because it seems like you just keep shooting yourself in the foot... and really, I feel bad for you!

And my mistake, I didn't realize it was that "simple" to sort through all 30282 games on Goozex and count every single CE/LE and bundled game!

By the way, I don't recall saying everything you said was wrong.  Oh wait, that's because I never did.  Nor have I tried to prove everything you say wrong.  I've only pointed out the things that you have said that were either wrong, or didn't make sense, which wasn't "everything" (just most things)! Stick out tongue

zannabianca:

Guys, I'll counter-check our figures and will update the stats on the games. Hoepfully we can sort out the difference in our data.

zanna hasn't come back yet and it's already dark out!  Come back zanna, you know how I worry!

Shoot himself in the foot? You are ridiculous. You openly make fun of your opponent

VICVANCE2011:

I'm not a big fan of this either, but at least I can put up a decent argument as to why it shouldn't be done.

This made me lol.

And you take what he said out of context.

And when you say “CE/LE games aren't included when he says games below 950 points aren't affected”, does that mean you actually spoke with zanna to clarify that, because you seem pretty sure about it?  Or are you just assuming that’s what he meant?  If so, that’s okay!  Maybe that IS what he meant… but what I was simply pointing out originally is that it was a little confusing when there seemed to be inconsistencies in his statements (through acceptable human error I’m sure, because zanna’s the man)!  So I’m not doubting that there is a possibility that’s what he meant, but it was still a little confusing the way it was written.  Then you replied with “it’s really not that confusing” (twice), trying (<---key word) to act all smart and clever.  Anyway… so since I said it was a LITTLE confusing and you said it wasn’t THAT confusing… what would you have liked me to say?  “It’s somewhere between not confusing and a little confusing”?  Would that have satisfied you?  I’ll edit my comment if you’d like!

When what he originally said was

"one can only assume that CE/LE bundles are not included when they say that games at or below 950 points won't be affected."

Doesn't seem so sure to me, seems like he flat out said he was making an assumption. That's High School debate there, and you'd do well to respect your opponent as your equal.

You know what's ridiculous? When someone comes in out of nowhere and calls you ridiculous!  Honestly, where did you come from?  Are you VICVANCE2011's replacement now that he's bowed out? haha what is wrong with making fun of someone, if it's not mean-spirited and they understand that?

How is laughing at something taking it out of context?

Okay there kung-fu sensei!  First of all, get your facts straight.  Second of all, when quoting someone, you are not allowed to change their quote in any way other than removing unecessary sentences/paragraphs.  Bolding is included as changing a persons quote (at least according to the mods).  Third of all, I only said that he SEEMED pretty sure about it... and that was after he said these things:

VICVANCE2011:
I seriously doubt he got his figures wrong. With all the controversy in this thread, I think that would be the last mistake they would make. What I said is that I(as well as anyone else with basic reasoning skills) assumed that some CE/LE games would move up in price even if they are under 950 points

VICVANCE2011:
one can only assume that CE/LE bundles are not included when they say that games at or below 950 points won't be affected.

VICVANCE2011:

Anyway, what I'm saying is that the CE/LE games aren't included when he says games below 950 points aren't affected. There are exceptions to everything. This is no different.

Seems to me like he was pretty sure about it.  Not 100% sure, but pretty sure.  And not he IS pretty sure, he SEEMS pretty sure.  Learn how to read... and think for that matter!  Did you not see what I said directly after that?  Here, let me help you:

dtp11:

Weren't you one of the people who called this whole cap increase a "money grab"?

This is becoming a personal pissing contest that goes beyond the purpose of this thread. I suggest you take these comments privately (PM?). I'll lock this thread.

I will start a new one soon once we get more info on the number of games affected by the proposed change, so that we can continue sharing feedback based on constructive grounds.

 


This discussion continues on a new thread. See here:
