Welcome to the Boom Boom Room and cheers!

We hope you enjoy your stay!

MENU AND RULES LOCATED HERE, FEEL FREE TO RECOMMEND ADDITIONS!


BOOM BOOM ROOM RULES:


1) Feel free to post chatty and off topic comments in the Boom Boom Room. While not advocating being a post-whore, you don't have to feel constrained either. Feel free to carry on banter and conversation.We all love to chat, but we have a lot of action going on in the Threads, and clutter and chat contribute to longer threads with more pages. After being off for a while, you want to go onto a Thread and catch up quickly from where you left off. If we keep our chat to the BBR, it is much easier and quicker catching up on the action in the threads.

2)No bashing between sides of the 2005 Hanso/Candle battle. A truce remains in effect in the Boom Boom Room. Here all are friends and equals, not bitter enemies. :catfight: :mischievo

3)There are no other rules at this time.

[Rhiannon]

Great idea lab! I rarely go to any of the other areas anymore, so this is cool. I just want to wish everyone Happy Holidays!!!!!!! Have fun and be safe......and don't eat too many cookies LOL. (Too late for me on that one)

[bighead421]

Boom Boom Room...NICE!!! The name alone prompted me to post on Christmas eve!!
I need a drink and a smoke please....

[Lab]

What's up bighead! Merry Christmas to you and yours!

Heres the smoke, and a Matchbook!

....and heres you a big Christmas Eggnog, with a double shot!

[truffula]

What a fantastic idea, Lab!!! A place for ramblings :D

Merry Xmas yal!! I wish I had something as cool as Yung's Dharma Flake for yal - wasn't that AWESOME!!??!!

I don't know how anyone can drink eggnog (ew, gross)
But the double shot by itself will do just nicely!

Peace,
Truff

[ILoveEko]

No booze or smokes for me, but I did just have a glass of egg nog :p
Twas yummy, hehe.

:p

[lorraineshere]

(and i really do too )

Edit: ps i have been known to be a bit of a bitch occasionally so...

[ILoveEko]

Thanks, Lorraine!
Hope you have a great time.
And Truff, I think you left out a couple words, lol.
Kyle's mom is a big fat bitch.
Isn't it that? LOL.
I didn't watch the old South Park's much. I watch them once in a while now.

:cool:
ILE.
ETA:
mmmmm i have a son named kyle :p
(and i really do too )
Well, you know we love you here! :)

[lorraineshere]

:heartpump :heartpump to you too !!!

[truffula]

Oh my goodness, I'm SO sorry Lorraine!! ;)
Mr. Hankey was making me laugh so hard...I wasn't thinkin when I was posting!!

YAY - and we get another one!! The SouthPark Holiday greeting card!
How many of yal saw that? The ORIGINAL email greeting card that spawned South Park? The Jesus vs. Santa uncensored one. I think it was Xmas 1995. It was sooooo funny!

Peace,
Truff

[Lab]

WASSUP ALL!
Them South Parks will be back to back till 1 am!

[Lab]

ILE, Heres the chance for you to hit 1000 posts by New Years!

Shouldn't be hard at all!

Merry Christmas!

[ILoveEko]

Yeah, I was aiming for Christmas at first...
Don't think I'll make it within the next 30 minutes, lol.
New Years it is now :D

[Lab]

LOL! When I first typed the post, I wrote Christmas, but then figured that still might be hard. That is, unless you wanna try and run, by current count, 63 posts in the next 28 minutes!

[truffula]

I hope I'm here for your 1000th ILE!
You realize you've accomplished something it took me months to do in mere weeks?!?!?
And like I said before, you are NO Post Whore!
Funny story, for kicks, I was reading through the original OWA/KCSP thread from the beginning. I saw ILE's first posts. To see how far you've come in such a short time....very good Watson, my padawan. :D
That thread was NUTS!!! Especially the VDM stuff, soo cool!

Peace,
Truff

[ILoveEko]

LOL.
Yeah, my first posts were in confusion over the sites, and I remember when I found the thread in use, I got a response from you, Truff, along the lines of "Very good, grasshopper"
Haha.
It's been a great few weeks, and it will continue to be so.
And I hope you're here for it too Truff. Why wouldn't you? LOL.
My luck though, I'll just keep posting without noticing and it will be some stupid ass post, lol.

[truffula]

When I hit 1000, I feared posting the closer I got. I know it sounds anal(ucia). But this is the first and only forum I post at (okay I have like 15 posts at Fuselage), and I wanted the BIG ones to really count.
I think you're gonna hit 1000 before NYE though ;)

Peace,
Truff

[ILoveEko]

Yeah same.
I'm guessing around the 28-9th.
Btw, loved the "anal(ucia)"
Too funny :p

[Lab]

OWA/KCSP started it for me as well.Hanso was just an added bonus! All I know, is I have folders and folders worth of pages on my favorites........ah, the Maze!

And we also have the posts forever in our threads of our live contacts with some of the creators. Ongoing while we cracked their sites! Live interaction at its best! Awesome!

[truffula]

lab, we should compare notes sometime. :D
You may be able to help with the NEW Webmaze Map.
I need exact dates for some of the updates; most of it is archived here in one of the threads, but there are still some holes.
That and my "visual aide" is lacking. It's too plain so far (just the site names and some colored lines connecting them accordingly). I want the actual "visual" Map to look really cool.
Who wants to help?

Peace,
Truff

[ILoveEko]

I have exact dates for the last few Mr. Clucks image changes. I think those are the only dates I have, lol. And you probably have them, lol.
But I have images for the cooridnates that used to be on www.globespotter.com and images of Aralai and stuff.

[truffula]

The coodinates offered on globespotter/aralai is something I do NOT have.
ILE, if you don't mind (when you get the chance) send those over via PM.
I have the Island images, but I must've started saving them once the coodinates disappeared.
See how the discussions became so intense that it was very easy to overlook something?
I'm gonna send a copy of the VDM Chapter of the new webmaze to the man, Vincent Madison, to make sure he corraborates all the info too.

I need someone with photoshop who has been following the webmaze...jocko...I think this may have your name written all over it...

Peace,
Truff

[ILoveEko]

Yeah, I've got Photoshop too, but I don't have anough skill with it to make anything worth seeing, lol.
As for the coordinate pics, I'll go try to send them to you now.

[truffula]

The first thought I had was to have a MAP, like Rousseau's Island map (or maybe aralai) as a faded background image, and then have the websites and the color coded connector lines come from points on the Island.
It wouldn't make sense cause there's portions of the Island that have yet to be explored, but just for the sake of having a cool visual tool...
I have some programs that might allow me to do this, but we'll see.

I do promise this - the New Webmaze Map will BLOW AWAY the first one.

Peace,
Truff

[ILoveEko]

Alrighty, Truff.
Coordinate images have been sent on over your way :)
Hope they're helpful somehow, lol.

[Lab]

I haven't got photoshop, sorry I can't help on this one, wasn't ignoring the discussion......

yeah, wheres jocko?

.......probably has just settled down for a long winters nap!

[ILoveEko]

Alright guys, well I'm headed off to bed.
My little brother is gonna wanna be up early to open presents, lol.
Talk to everyone later.
Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night :D
Haha.

ILE.

[truffula]

Merry Christmas to All, and to All a "Good" night! ;)

Peace,
Truff

[TheGuinea_Pig]

Peace,
Truff

How about this for an idea? You could make your background picture a patchwork of stuff (maybe even like a mini checkerboard?)... the island, Alvar, Marvin, Vinnie (well, maybe an oceanic plane), Mr Clucks..... and make each piece go to the relevant site(s). Well whatever you come up with I'm sure it'll be awesome... and if you need somewhere to host it let me know and I'll put it on my site.


Merry Christmas everybody and keep counting down to Jan 11th. Vinnie, if you wanted to put something nice in my stocking, you'd be the best secret santa. :D

[ILoveEko]

Merry Christmas everyone!
I'm so happy. :D
I finally got Season 1 on DVD! LOL.
I also got that book, "The Lost Chronicles". You know, with the behind the scenes stuff and whatnot :p
It's kool.

ILE.

[bighead421]

What's up bighead! Merry Christmas to you and yours!

Heres the smoke, and a Matchbook!

....and heres you a big Christmas Eggnog, with a double shot!

THank you very much! Same to you! Great to be here in the lounge, maybe I will sing a song...

[Khisanth]

Truff, awesum guide thru the maze. You're way more organized than I, I can't make much sense of my own notes. This helps out greatly. Even though I check here throughout the day, I miss alot and this fills in the blanks.

[truffula]

Boom Boom. Truff is here chillin. Xmas is done for me for this year.
Gonna go see KING KONG tomorrow, so I'm psyched for that.

Is there anybody out there?

Peace,
Truff

[Khisanth]

Well met Truff. Christmas is done for this dragon too. Catching up on posts and what not, chillen the most. Oh and thanx again for the jam the other day.

[truffula]

Not a problem Khisanth, it was my pleasure!!
We're hoping to have our NYE show online in weekly updates shortly after the new year (and NYE is always a HOT night for us, it'll be worth checkin out ;))

I see you've already posted in my new Map thread, glad you liked it!
I've been scouring over it since the Hodag "incident", glad it's finally done.
I figured today would be a good quiet day to get others caught up before the shnit starts hittin the fan again in a couple of days....and then, where are we....17 days including today til NEW LOST!?!?!?

Evil Hiatus has gone by lightning fast so far for me, don't know about yal.

Peace,
Truff

[RidersOnTheStorm]

Awesome guide Truff! Thanks!

[Khisanth]

You do a great job of keeping everyone up to date on the maze. Without you and ILE (and many others), I'd be even more Lost. Hence you both got several of my votes.
Yea 17 days to go, 19 til my b-day. New Lost for a gift YEA! I kinda look for something to happen at one of the numbers days to go. Like 15 days to go, 8 days to go, 4 days to go. I will try to be even more diligent watching the maze sites.
I'll be watching the band's site for new updates. Good stuff and that can't be said about most new rock on the stinkin radio.

[Lab]

Evening all!!! Had a super crappy day, but just wanted to wish everybody Merry Christmas!

[Khisanth]

Sorry to hear that Lab5. Great idea on the chat thread though. Merry Christmas back at ya.

[truffula]

Sucks you had a crappy day, lab. :(
Anything we can do to cheer ya up?
How about a dancing bunny?

:bunny:

Peace,
Truff

[Lab]

WAssup KHISANTH! Merry Christmas to ya! Mine has just been bad because I just bought a new car 2 months ago, and it died on the highway today in the middle of nowhere. Gotta try tomorrow and contact the dealer to see if they will tow and fix it..................sorry to grumble, just needed to vent! ARGGGH!

Anyways, Merry Christmas Khisanth! Welcome to the lounge. Double shot coming right up!

[Lab]

Aw the pretty bunny! AWWWWWWWWW!

Hell, naw....that didn't help!

NO ITS OK................ wassup TRUFF!

[Lab]

Holy Schnikees~!

Awesome job, Truff!

[Lab]

Just saw that new webmaze thread.................. awesome job , Truff!

To quote my dear friend 3-putt.......... You Magnificent Bastard!

[Khisanth]

You don't have to tell me about cars, I work on them, though not repairs. I hate cars. I'm useing the word 'hate' here; about cars.
Oh and can I turn that double into just 1, tightly rolled please ;-)

[truffula]

Lab - the SAME thing happened to me and my brother during Thanksgiving - I feel your pain!!
I don't know how bad it was for you but we were in 10 degree weather for over 2 hours with no heat on the highway in the middle of nowhere in the middle of the night waiting for AAA to show up.
I wrote down the whole tale in the "I'd like to share something with you" thread in Lostaways. It was a freaking NIGHTMARE.
I hope you didn't experience anything close to that!!!

I am chillin in my new DHARMA hat and OCEANIC T-Shirt, feeling quite stylish. And my mom LOST it when she opened up her S1 DVDs from me.

Thinkin bout watching a movie over here....waitin for the rest of the group to finish up with the fam and log in (cause you know how addicted to this we all are!! ;))

Peace,
Truff

[Lab]

YEAH, THAT STORY HELPS TRUFF!

I was only out for about an hour, borrowed my little sisters car, gonna call the dealer tomoorow! They BETTER pay to tow from parking lot its in now, pay for my rental, and pay to get it fixxed! ARGGGGGGGGGGGHHH! SO ANGRY!

Thanks for the story and support though.

Moms is a Lost fan, huh? Thats so cool!
I was thinking about busting out Season 1 myself right now.

Cool on the gear, I was thinking about getting an Oceanic shirt myself. Where did you get it? E-Bay?

[Khisanth]

I saw that thread of your's Truff. Promted me to post the story of my 1st jump in Airborne School...awesum thread

Lab...Dealers squirm in the presence of an unhappy customer. Give 'em what-for.

[Lab]

oh, soookee, sookeee............. got a fellow Paratrooper here, huh, Khisanth!
I was in the 82nd Airborne Division from 1995-2001. Army from 1991-2001.


They are all night jumps when you have your eyes closed!

[Lab]

ONE THOUSAND! TWO THOUSAND! THREE THOUSAND!


Check canopy and gain canopy control! HA!

[Khisanth]

Small world. Hoo-ah. I was in 50th SIGBN 35th SIG BDE. Smoke bomb hill area near SOCOM. Remember TDY Ted? I was in from 90-94 all at Bragg 'cept AIT and Jump School. <<<Slips left>>>>

[Lab]

SLIP AWAY! Always turn left to avoid collision! The lower jumper has the right of way!


Thats awesome, Khisanth! Small world! Yeah, I know right where you were. I was at Gruber/ Bastogne....3rd and 4th Battalion, 325th Airborne Infantry Regiment.....2nd Brigade....82nd Airborne Division! Small, small world!

[Khisanth]

I'm sure I ran past that area on a RUN or 2 or 20. Was there anywhere I didn't run past on all of Ft Bragg???

[Lab]

Yeah, man, I think about that all the time......we were some runnin mofos at that place huh? I swear I ran all over that place!!!!! Gotta have 1000s of miles in by now!

But, nowadays............................please........ ........

I'm mad if I got to run to the mailbox! HAHA!

ETA: Excuse the digression, folks, me and Khisanth were just reminescing on the good ol days! Ah, youth.....gone too soon ain't it!

[Khisanth]

Th running seemed so easy at the time but no way now. I always feel like I could build back up to that point, but then I come to my senses.

I'm off to play a game of Star Wars Galactic Battlegrounds. I'm sure to be back again tomarrow.

[Lab]

...................and I'm off for some Season 1 action to distract me from my busted up car.......Love to all! Merry Christmas!

:):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):) :):):):):)

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

[ILoveEko]

I was thinking about busting out Season 1 myself right now. I'm just about to click "play" for Tabula Rasa. :D

ETA: It's so weird to see them before they were sexy and scruffy! LOL.
Saywer without his longer hair, Locke with fresh eye slash, lol.
Jin being a total dick towards Sun. I forgot how much I hated Jin when the show started. Now he's one of my faves! :p

Edit: Woohoo!!! 4 months later and I caught a typo and fixed it!! Hehe.

[ILoveEko]

Reading through that, when I read this:
"KD", and "AH" (presumably for Karen DeGroot and Alvar Hanso)
I thought of Kate Dodd (one of the names she's gone by, lol).
I mean, if it's Dharma related it makes sense to be Karen, but Locke's name was there before, so it could be Kate.

[truffula]

Lab, ILE....yal know where to find the easter eggs right? They're posted here somewhere, but if you have trouble finding them, I'll PM em to you.

And be sure to check out Matthew Fox's Art from Disc 7.
And the commentary for Ep 1 and 2 from JJ and Damon.
What a GREAT DVD set!!!

Don't forget to look for clues in Ray Mullen's house, ILE!! ;) (jk)

[ILoveEko]

Haha.
I'm onto Walkabout now.
I don't know where the Easter Eggs are, but I'll go try to find the post(s) with them later or something.
Matt Fox's photographs were awesome. I absolutely loved them.
I watched 85% of disc 7 earlier, but then my brother wanted to watch some epi's, so I started from the beginning and am going to work me way through, hehe. :p

ETA: And the "Lost Chronicles" book seems pretty good.
Haven't read it yet, but I skimmed through it after I opened it. Looks like it will be a nice read. A refresher after watching everything. :)

[truffula]

I remember watching Exodus 2 on my DVDs right before S2 started...I actually waited to watch that Ep til then. I scoured the rest of the set, but I really wanted to save that one for right before S2E1 (even though ABC broadcated it - the DVDs are just SO much nicer!).

[ILoveEko]

Yeah, it's nice to have if you need to go back and double check stuff :p

ETA: I can't believe how emotional I am watching it though. The tail section breaking off and the plane going down was hard for me to watch. And when Jack confronts Rose about her missing Bernard, I nearly cried. With so much emotional investment in the characters, it's hard to watch them go through that shit again, lol.

[truffula]

Wait til you watch Boone die again!
And good lord, the raft setting sail!!!!
That one gets me every time.

[ILoveEko]

LOL.
And on I go to disc TWO. :)

ETA: And I wanna add that I really miss Walt, lol. I know so many people don't like him, neither did my friends who watched Lost, but I love the kid. LOL.

[truffula]

Are you KIDDING!?!? Walt is one of the best parts about the show!!
When he made the rain stop in Tabula Rasa, I knew this kid was gonna be a HIT!! Now he can talk backwards. What other tricks does Walt have up his sleeve for us (besides talking to us on bss1 ;))

[ILoveEko]

LOL.
I know, I don't understand why people don't like him.
I actually don't dislike anyone on the show.
Actually, for now, and probably a while, I dislike Ana.
Like, really dislike.
I'm super good with my Saywer and Eko though. Super good. Haha.

[yung23]

glad to see you back at it truff.

I think you should incorporate the energizer bunny into your avatar..

[truffula]

Haha - you ladies and Sawyer and Eko!!

I don't dislike anyone on the show, but you know they're ALL not gonna make it. And right now Ana is #1 on the hitlist.
When Kate said "This place is crazy" in S2E9, I couldn't have agreed more!!
And Evie's delivery gave me the shivers.

[truffula]

Hey yung, can we get a STICKY on this thread?

[ILoveEko]

Yeah.
Evie keeps getting better and better.
She's an amazing actress, it's hard to believe this is her first role.
I've seen veteran actresses with not nearly as much depth and power as she conveys over the screen.

As for :heartpump:love2:Saywer and Eko:love2::heartpump...

LOL.
I adore their accents, lol. Although, when I heard Adewale's real voice on the podcast, I was surprised, lol. I had heard him Nigerian and American (in Get Rich or Die Tryin') but never with his normal Brit accent, lol.
Same with Naveen. Heard him on the View once and was kinda shocked, lol, even though I knew in advance.
The accents are just hot, lol.
Naveen's Iraqi accent is nice too :p

Now you got me started!
Haha.

[truffula]

Adawale Akkinuoye Agbaje is a FANTASTIC actor!!! (I hope I got his name right!) I was shocked to hear his thick british accent in the podcast too.

There are some happenings at OWA if yal are interested....

Peace,
Truff

[major_matt]

Truff, how do you do it? How... I take my hat off to you.

Without a doubt one of the most, if not THE most, dedicated member on this forum in regards to information collection and sifting through the everything and TRYING to make sence of it!

Once again, thanks :)

[Lab]

YES SIR!

Vincent and OWA have been busy! SWEET!

[ILoveEko]

Yes he has.
But I still love Adewale, lmao.
And I agree Truff, he's a fantastic actor. He doesn't even speak and I fall in love with him.
He just has such presence.

[truffula]

I say this to all yal involved in the Webmaze in ANY way -
If you thought what has happened in the past three weeks has been crazy -
You Ain't Seen NOTHING yet!!!!

It will get more and more intense each day that we grow closer to the Return Of Eko.
Starting right now.

I mean, really, I don't think I got my point across here...those who were around for KCSP opening up, and VDM posting with us, and the Hodag "confession", yeah, those were AMAZING moments....BUT...
How about one of those Dham Dharma sites opening up? Or maybe even a NEW SITE to the Maze?!?!?
Something REALLY BIG is gonna happen here before Jan 11th.
Mark my words.

Peace,
Truff

[Khisanth]

I agree on somethin bigg coming Truff. I predict on Tues....15 days out, if not before.

[Lab]

:dunce::dunce::dunce::dunce::dunce::dunce::dunce:

I just wanna say I can't think of a better way to spend the wee hours of the morning than "deep in the Maze" right here with you guys!
:music::music::music:

Drinks are 2 for 1 all night while we continue to crack these updates!

Love ya'll!:heartpump:worshippy:worshippy:heartpump

[truffula]

Dude, the drinks are puttin me (to name one of the Greatest Movies of ALL Time) "Over The Top"!!!


:rotfl::rotfl:

[truffula]

And so the Truffula resigns for this day.
A Very Merry Xmas it has been, VDM made SURE of that (and I THANK him for it)!
Prepare yourselves. The next two weeks here are going to be UNREAL!!!

G'Nite and Peace,
Truff

I'm Back. Great idea Lab. I think we really needed this. No worries of thread-jacking here. I too got season 1 on DVD finally. Can't wait to start disecting it. Hope everyone had a Happy Holiday!

[agrillo]

Truff are you sure you really have a day job?
LOL

Great work as always.

[Lab]

Wassup agrillo and aggiesean, Nope, No thread jacking here! Been on season 1 myself for the last week. Make sure you check out the updates to OWA and on the Agents/Gold Members Thread! Our dear friend Vincent was busy yesterday!

[nimrod]

As someone who came to this place late just want to say thanks for this. Still got to read it properly. I've had a mad time looking at this place and some of these weird sites since finding the chat about a month ago. This place is intense and pretty addictive. I've hardly noticed Lost hasn't been on!

[truffula]

So I just got back from seeing KING KONG - and it was AMAZING!!!!

A little long, but totally worth sitting through (it's a 3 hour runtime).
The fight scenes with the T-Rexs and the Empire State Building scene will go down as two of the most intense things I've EVER seen on film.
Naomi Watts delivered an incredible performance too (I don't know about Jack Black though, he's too typecast for this role).
Did anyone see Peter Jackson and his daughter?
I couldn't find Pete (he LOVES putting himself and his kids in at least one shot in all of his films) but I saw his daughter walk by right at the beginning.

And on top of this movie being FIERCE, I hear that within 3 months, Jim Cameron is gonna implement his New 3d technology to it!!!
And STAR WARS is next!!!

:D

Peace,
Truff

[ILoveEko]

Ew. Star Wars.
LOL.
I'm not a sci-fi fan :p
Still watching Lost. I'm at Raised by Another now.

[truffula]

14 posts to go ILE!!! Looks like it's gonna be today!!
Woo-Hoo!!!

:celebrate:celebrate:celebrate:celebrate

1000 posts for ILE!!!

Enjoy the rest of S1!

Peace,
Truff

[ILoveEko]

LOL.
Yay for me!
Hehe.
It's not gonna be anything special, I have no reason for it to be, lol.

[ILoveEko]

Watching Raised by Another...
Dude says Claire's goodness has to be an influence and that no one else should raise the baby...
Could this be an allusion or whatever to Charlie? I think if I were her, that's how I'd be thinking...

[truffula]

Well I'm off to screw around with the emri site...
If I miss you hitting 1000 - Congrats ILE!!!

ETA - oooh Claire's "good"ness....hmmm, and the psychic knew....hmmmm
Peace,
Truff

[truffula]

Not sure if anyone else has seen this yet. So here goes.

I'm screwing around with the emri site, and I think I'm making some progress.
It's different each time, but my last conversation went something like this:
Me: Hello?
>: Who can you see?
Me: I see no one. It is dark. Who can you see?
>: Are you sure you see no one?
Me: I see Apollo. Who can you see?
>: You see Apollo. Interesting. Ok.
Me: Where Am I?
>: (and then I got this google map of the numbers used as coordinates).

Starting with "Hello?" gets the ball rolling nicely. But where to go beyond that, still workin on it. If my notes get too big, I may start up a thread on this site so the others don't get all the clutter.

More to come.

Peace,
Truff

[ILoveEko]

Oooh.
Boone and Locke just discovered the hatch!!!!!
LOL.

[ILoveEko]

I was wondering...
On our profiles, what's the "Referrals" thing?
:confused:

[yung23]

here ya go truff..

[ILoveEko]

Woohoo! Stickied!

:D

[truffula]

Thanks alot Master Yung!!!

[Lab]

EMRI and AGENTS threads are where the action is this evening folks! I'm off for the evening to finish my SEASON 1 MARATHON!

[truffula]

Ah, the Season One Marathon.
Good shnit.
I personally have done it 4 times. And EVERY time I rewatch, I catch something I missed before, or I begin a new line of thought regarding a theory.
Yeah folks, Lab is right. EMRI and Agents is where it's at right now.
But for some reason I think bss1 may end up getting some attention too....

Peace,
Truff

[Lab]

Woo-Hoo!!

[ILoveEko]

Haha.

No booze for me though.
Could I get a virgin strawberry daiquiri? Hehe.
Had one of those when I was like 11. It was gooood. :p

[truffula]

I see we have some New Zealanders here - AWESOME!!!
Yal live in one of the most (if not the most) beautiful countries in the world!!
Tell me one of yal got to be an extra in Lord of the Rings!?!?!

I almost took the "Red Carpet Tour" of all the LOTR "sets" in NZ a few years ago, regretting that I didn't even more now that I've seen KONG (also filmed primarily in NZ)

Yes, NEW ZEALAND ROCKS!!!

Peace,
Truff

[ILoveEko]

:weeping:
Michael just burned the comic book a few minutes ago.
LOL.

Ahh! Polar Bear very soon!!!!:no:
Bird about to hit a window!!!

lol, are you doing a marathon too? Ive been doing one too. Just got the last two episodes of S1 to go then will watch S2.

Think this is the third time Ive done a Lost marathon. It's the only show (other than 24) that I do marathon watching sessions.

Yay for Lost!

[rottenralf]

ILE - If you are looking at that episode, when exactly did Vincent show up at Brians? Was it before or after Susan's death?

[ILoveEko]

Vincent was around when Susan was still alive.
Cuz he was there when Walt made the bird crash into the window, lol.
He was staring at Vincenet before he was telling Brain/Susan to pay attention to him.

[aggiesean]

Vincent was around when Susan was still alive.
Cuz he was there when Walt made the bird crash into the window, lol.
He was staring at Vincenet before he was telling Brain/Susan to pay attention to him.
Perhaps Vincent killed the bird, not Walt, out of his devotion to the boy.

Or perhaps the holidays have made me weird and loopy and paranoid.

I'm away from my Season 1 DVDs until Sunday, and let me tell y'all, the separation anxiety is terrible.

[ILoveEko]

At 7:43 minutes into "Special" from Season 1, there's a coat of arms I think could be pointed out on purpose almost... It's on the juke box that Charlie's friend goes and turns on "You All Everybody".
I almost thought it was the KCSP one, lol. But it's not, :p

[oceanic_lisa]

Wha?? I've been missing the party??? :dunce:

Well, let me belly up to the bar, folks, 'cause I am seriously ready for a drink... LOL

Congrats ILE on the 1000th post... I may never get there!

Gotta go check out the OWA thread... seems like I missed something there too!

[ILoveEko]

LOL.
Thanks, Lisa :D

[Lab]

Afternoon , all....looks like several thread are active right now! LOVE TO SEE IT! Extra busy at work today...will check in later if I can, if not, see you all this evening.

[truffula]

The one thread I'm waiting to explode today hasn't yet, so that's a good thing. That means I didn't miss it.
Gonna do a quick peek at the webmaze and check my email to see if it has started.
See yal in a few hours.

Peace,
Truff

[ILoveEko]

Boone just died.
I just cried.
When Jack went to tell Shannon.
:weeping:

[TheGuinea_Pig]

What, we're writing Haikus now?? :D

[aggiesean]

What, we're writing Haikus now?? :D
What's wrong with haiku?
Creative juices help with
web maze, Guinea Pig.

[ILoveEko]

LOL.
I was writing, and then realized that it was poem-ish, lol.
:p
It's his funeral now. :weeping:
Damn, I miss Boone.

[bighead421]

What's wrong with haiku?
Creative juices help with
web maze, Guinea Pig.

This is funny. I have nothing creative to add or say.
Poo

[Lab]

This is funny. I have nothing creative to add or say.
Poo

AND that is just fine...bighead....this thread is exactly just for that!:)

I'll be home in an hour to check up on the days events! In a while, all!;)

[Lab]

cant type a hai ku,
dont get the format,
never have,
though i love to write!

[Lab]

guniea pig is funny,
big head is too,
i dont really get,
this thing called hai ku

[aggiesean]

cant type a hai ku,
dont get the format,
never have,
though i love to write!
Three lines: 5 syllables on the first, 7 on the second, 5 on the third.
Example, rewording what you said:

I can't write haiku,
Never understood format,
Though I love to write!

[truffula]

ILE that scene when Jack tells Shannon about Boone gets me everytime.
It's that MUSIC. It is SOOO emotionally intense, and it fits that scene so well.

Haha - you guys are writing haikus!
I'm a dumbass, I don't remember what a Haiku is. Sorry ;)

My email box is surprisingly still empty.
Maybe I should initiate contact....
Gonna read thru all I missed, and maybe I'll see if I can get the Doc's attention after.

Peace,
Truff

[bighead421]

AND that is just fine...bighead....this thread is exactly just for that!:)

I'll be home in an hour to check up on the days events! In a while, all!;)

Exactly why I said something...or nothing....because I can without worrying that I was cluttering up the thread.

Drive safely Lab. I can say that in this thread too!

[bighead421]

guniea pig is funny,
big head is too,
i dont really get,
this thing called hai ku

And thanks for that! You have your moments as well...:cool:

[Lab]

im off for the drive,
agg ie sean has taught les sons,
hai ku i will learn.

:dunce: :dunce: :dunce: :dunce: :dunce:

HA! ..... or something like that......ok getting ready to clock out now, be home shortly~

[ILoveEko]

Yup.
5.
7.
5.
It's all in the syllables :p

[ILoveEko]

Why doesn't Kate call her mom Mom? When she's talking to Tom she says, "Diane's dying of cancer." Most people would say, "My mom..." Right? Just seems weird.
And she also doesn't have the same last name as any that Kate goes by...
Janson/Jenson... something like that.

[truffula]

I think it was the writers trying to confuse us, ILE.

So MacGuffin said not til at least 8:15 for the "incident" - I agree (and I hope that's EST).
I'll also be sure to make my rounds at 4, 8, 15, 16, 23, and 42 minutes past the hour. :D

Peace,
Truff

[Lab]

All right, all! Good evening! Just got caught up on all the threads, sitting back waiting on the Update Craziness we are all anticipating to begin.

[Lab]

Mycroft57, Welcome to the boards!

[truffula]

Now I'm really getting antsy. :hyper:
No one has posted anything here in almost an hour. ETA - I knew by the time I finished typing someone would be here! Yo Lab!
To quote the Great GANDALF:
"It's the Deep Breath before the Plunge".

I'm stuck with the emri, I just looked thru the RD, and checked all the maze sites. Nothing.
Sorry, I'm bored. I would go into bss1, but I might miss "it".

Peace,
Truff

[Lab]

Now, Truff, don't go getting over anxious now! They seem to like to mess with our work schedule. I remember most of the big updates and craziness seem to come late nite. The webmasters won't be nice enough to give it to us this early. They love to wait till late. They just want to see how long they can keep us all up! HA! I'M WATCHING FOR IT WITH YA THOUGH, BRO!

[truffula]

Yeah, I hear that about the later updates.
But I'll be up for quite a while still, and I don't plan on missing "it" either.

And too late - I'm already buggin!! :D :hyper: :D
But it's all "good". Cause the FIERCE is coming.
I can FEEL it....

Peace,
Truff

[RidersOnTheStorm]

Hey all,

Just wondering... how do you know that something big is gonna go down soon?

[Lab]

its all in the numbers, Riders, its all in the numbers!

[bighead421]

Now, Truff, don't go getting over anxious now! They seem to like to mess with our work schedule. I remember most of the big updates and craziness seem to come late nite. The webmasters won't be nice enough to give it to us this early. They love to wait till late. They just want to see how long they can keep us all up! HA! I'M WATCHING FOR IT WITH YA THOUGH, BRO!

Also keep in mind, the writers are in California, thus they may hit the enter key that sends all of the updates to the servers as they are about to leave work. That would account for the 8:00PM EST craziness. Then they drive home and log on to their sites and watch the insanity as we all scramble to make sense of it all. Now, if these people were all in Hawaii and did it as they left work, we East coasters would be totally screwed since they are even later. I think its 5 hours now with daylight savings in effect...that would suck!

[truffula]

riders - Just in case you don't understand what Lab is sayin,
I got an email from Dr. Candle of KCSP on Dec 18th telling me that things would get interesting 4, 8, and 15 days before the new episodes here in the US and Canada.
Today is 15 days before the new Episode.
This is why I feel something BIG is gonna go down.

We'll see.
Peace,
Truff

[Lab]

Sorry, riders, didn't mean to sound cryptic, yes, what Truff said, the dates. And what time, may I ask, is it in lovely New Zealand right now?

Bighead, Never thought of it that way, but yup, could be West Coast. And the Hawaii thing always got me on the Dharma Inc/BSS1 thing, because the time you would think he was supposed to be at work, he would be online with us....If there was stuff coming from Hawaii, it would be like, what 2 or 3 am on the East Coast? Something like that.

[Lab]

So will you be providing breathalizers tonight, bighead, in your official "Lost Police" Capacity?

[truffula]

Well you may be right, head. The WhoIs for KCSP comes from Cali (Burbank I think it was).
So it may be a little while. BOOOO!!!

Come ON Dr. Candle - HOOK US UP!!! Lets start making things "Very Interesting"!!! I'm gettin itchy over here!

:hyper:

Peace,
Truff

[truffula]

If head is doin breathalizers, I'm gonna FAIL that sumbitch. ;)

[bighead421]

So will you be providing breathalizers tonight, bighead, in your official "Lost Police" Capacity?

No sir! I always let people drink and post. They always regret it later.
And at 5pm in hawaii it is 11PM EST...

ETA- No worries Truff...I'll let you slide!

[truffula]

Just so yal know, I have a "thing" for the beer ;)
I personally prefer Yuengling Traditional Lager, but my drummer makes MEAN homebrews of many styles (I believe he's offering an IPA and an Oatmeal Stout for NYE), so I'm usually well stocked.
:D

[ILoveEko]

No update yet???

[truffula]

No, not yet ILE....starting to get nervous here....if it doesn't happen within the next 2 hours I may begin to doubt.
I really hope we don't get ripped off.
He DID say today, and I DID remind him.
Hopefully it's just a West Coast thing, and it'll happen soon.
We'll see....

Peace,
Truff

[Lab]

CONGRATS RALF, ON CRACKING EMRI!

[rottenralf]

Thanks lab, feel good to win an emri, thank goodness it is evening here, those daytime emri's just aren't the same.

[truffula]

ralf - OMG!!! An "Emri".....

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:!!!!!

[truffula]

Come on, wake up folks...nothing to contribute about VDM's reference to Schrodinger's Cat? Go check out the latest update if you haven't already in the Agents thread!

[Lab]

WELCOME HOME LURKEELOO!

WELCOME ANTWERP!

[truffula]

Okay, I'm gonna take this one WAAAAY out there.
Since the Doc FAILED to hook it up today (at least for us on the East Coast of the US), I offer you this:

The Doc said things would get very interesting 4, 8, and 15 days before the new eps. Now it was pointed out that 23 days left, we were "given" the steganography hint from Hodag/Seabass.
And today, rottenralf cracks EMRI.
Is someone Remote Viewing us????
How the hell do they know when we're gonna dig up this crap!!??!!
I wonder if the "things are going to get very interesting" is the knowledge of the direct connection between Bss1 and Emri.
That works for me if that's the case.
But still.....how did THEY know?!?!?

Peace,
Truff

[ILoveEko]

Maybe it wasn't able to be cracked until today, and Ralf was just the lucky one to do it first.

[Lab]

and I personally expected to see more from KCSP.......it has really been a while since their last meaningful update.......hmmm..

[truffula]

I don't know ILE. The EMRI site has been there for a while, we've just paid no real serious attention to it until yesterday. The "answer" was there on Dec 19th at the latest as far as I can tell from their update log.

I'm becoming so paranoid I don't know what to do with myself ;)
It's all just happening TOO perfectly. Something is suspicious to me here....now I just have to put my finger on what.

But still, Ralf RULES for being the firstto crack the emri site!!
And if we Webmazers ever get an "awards" thing like the MLHTY awards, it HAS to be the "EMRIs"!!!

Peace,
Truff

[truffula]

Lab, I think the Doc may report with a "It was not safe to transmit at that time" line to try to make up for his lack of an update today.
He's gonna get another email from me before I pass out, that's for sure!
