But... we'll always have the internet!

And... the staff appreciation week event (shameless plug!) :D

Well, everyone gets the news from the same wire anyway. -.-

Yup. I think there are 2-3 different agencies that journalists pull their info from. Then, there are other sources that they have to dig a little deeper to get a hold of.

Oh cool whens that event, elmira?
*nod* Like current tv... I love that media source. sadly those 2 poor woman reporters are being held captive in north korea... I hope they get released soon!

True Guivre. the same corporation owns all the media outlets... so there's not much "free" media anymore, its all controlled...

It's going on right now - through this week. We're holding the first trivia game, and I have 3 people who are contestants - need a couple more. The pic in my sig has the link.

I have a cousin who is a journalist for a paper in San Francisco. She's been a beat reporter as well - rough neighborhood. She loves it.

Cool elmira. I wish I knew more about the staff... I know next to nothin.
User run events are my favorite!

Yeah, I can imagine... It would be fun to live in san fran... I feel bad for her though because even the newspapers in san fran are falling on some hard times and I worry that journalist will have trouble finding jobs... and might start to diminish.

I haven't heard if her job is ok or not. She just had a baby, so it may be ok with her to stay home.

If not for the answer key, I'd have no clue ho to answer the questions! Still, it would be worth it for the prizes.

Thats great that she had a baby. Yeah staying home is whats important....

There's an answer key? Thats great... but than doesn't everyone know the answers?
Or only you know the answers? lol.

I know the answers, but posted them after the last person posted their answers... we run the game in rounds and there are different cards that we use for each round. Only LoveHate and I know the answers until we share the results with the players at the end of the round.

Oh thats good, otherwise the game would be way too easy.
Having trouble finding a seller for bee slips? I just noticed you've had that in your sig for a while... It seems like not many ppl are selling old CIs anymore...

No - and that's ok. It may be one of those weird things that will take a while to find. Like, it may be something I'll have to bid wildly on in the GBA or something!

Thank you for popping your head in the trivia thread and for creating on in the event forum!!

Hmm, maybe so elmira. I just remember when I first joined mene I quest for 2 weeks to afford the bee slips... of course back than they were only 3k...

Sure thang. I just want to show my appreciation to the staff.
So far it seems like not many people are interested in the event... I hope more members make threads soon and get involved.

The slippers are over 15k now and I can't believe how much crowns and the older CIs are going for. The thing is, they're still less expensive than Gaia's MCs from a couple years ago. You can't even get a hold of the current ones for 15k.

What are you looking for? If I see something, I'll let you know.

Are you looking for an orange or yellow one? I saw an orange one on the GBA last week. Haven't seen any pierced bunny ears lately - but I haven't been poking through the exchange like I usually do. If I see either, I'll let you know!

You could still go for the headband since it's from a different set - unless you have other items. I forgot about that catch! I have a lot of partial sets so it's sometimes a little difficult to find things on the GBA that I'm qualified for. I think I may head back to sleep. My allergies are kicking my butt.

I think it always works like that!

When you don't want something everyone is selling it when you do want something no one is.

I'll just have to wait for these items to turn up.

Yeah, keeping your eyes open and staying patient pays off. That's what I did back in the days I was addicted to Ebay. :P

ebay and etsy are both way too addictive.
