View Full Version : re-think for pes3 3000 post comp
hows about you give the top 5 posters by the time pes3 is released a copy of the game. i'm pretty sure there's no way anyone apart from zygalski and rebusrahman will reach 3000 posts anyway. I'm just saying this because i want a free copy of the game. (i'm currently in 7th place).
how can you check wot place you are at?

do you think i can afford 5 copies of the game? Running the website costs enough as it as. and its 2500 posts...
you can check where you are by clicking on the member link at the top and sorting it into the top posters.
im 8th but i aint fussed because i just want to help the people who need help.

Seems I may have to add this to my signature or something but I'm not eligable to win!
oh right, so rebushraman is leading.

just wondering, how much does it cost to own this webspace?
may be a small fee permonth i guess may be 10quid a month

Somebody should calculate the highest posts per day averages, then calculate the expected number of posts at date of release when the competition ends (you'd have to guess this), then we could see who was favourite to win!

PESinsight gets on everyday 25,000 page views per day.... each of them page views costs me money in bandwidth. now, as you can imagine, at the moment the most popular pages at the moment are those with we7 and pes3 screenshots on them, and these cost more bandwidth because they are large images.
this month's hosting bill is currently standing at £85.... from advertising on the site I make around £60 a month, so at the moment I am out of pocket anyway.
yeah we all know that zygalski' gonna get a copy. i iant really fussed but their was something on another forum in this website that asked about a comp and i was puzzled.

Lucky dog, I'd love that free copy!
hitmanuk2k your doin a fine job with the forums and stuff so keep it up m8. :)
i just read an email sent by hitman2uk and the sites hit a trouble spot. i think we should donate and help keep the site open.

20-07-2003, 18:46
i am only looking for donations from people who can AFFORD to donate. i dont want anyone at all feeling obliged to donate or to use or links to order pes3 or we7. it would obviously be nice and a great help for me... but i dont want to turn this into a pay site, so dont feel as though u have to donate :)
how would £2 or £3 help yoor cause?
hitmanuk2k
20-07-2003, 19:47
it would help greatly... any amount will add up if a few people help out.
ok - wots the paypal add? so i can send the money when ive configured it correctly.

Why r people complaining about the post compo. Yes, I am leading at the moment but I'm not cheating or anything? Would it better if I stopped posting for a few weeks until everyone caught up with me to make it fairer? This is silly. If is that important then if I win I will give it to charity!
Zygalski

Or you can drop out of the competition too!
It's strange how some people are getting so competitive over this.

By the time the game does come out there will probably still be people not even on 2000 posts, and they will have been the ones complaining about it!

Yeah, and now we're merging it should be easier.
BTW, when are we merging? Sometime today, or later this week?
well Hitman told me it could be by today but I aint fully sure,
and us xfn members aint eligable for this as alot of us already ahve beaten the 2500 post mark like I almost have double that at xfn and these will add to my current post count once the merge has finished :D,
so it's only for the people that were here originally so u don't have to worry about as much competition ;)
rebusrahman
17-08-2003, 21:34
Does this mean that the compo is now open to people who came in from other forums... or is it only open to PESInsight folk?
Also I notice that jag has been very busy in my absence racking up the posts. All informative and concise I hope!!!
rebusrahman i have been trying to help people whilst you have been away. i have tried to be informative and concise as always and am never shy to submit any opinions. nice to have you back rebusrahman!!!
rebusrahman
17-08-2003, 21:45
Thanking you, buddy ;-)
Keep up the good work. Race you to 3000! Only joking!
ok your on!! :p. youd probably beat me as im going back to school in 10 days and wont have all that free time. :(
rebusrahman
17-08-2003, 21:49
6th form? Hope you've been doing some out of school reading too?
yeah 6th form to do a-levels. i have been reading alot of golf books and AS chemistry and biology books to get a head start.
rebusrahman
17-08-2003, 21:54
R u doing sport science? How is your chemistry? What is the valency of carbon?
rebusrahman, i have been browsing and havent been learning yet. the valency of carbon is always 4.
rebusrahman
17-08-2003, 22:01
I thought it had diff numbers because of the diff allotropes?
im unsure rebusrahman. when i get back to school i'll tell you.

Just off the top of my head, I reckon that:
The valency of Carbon is four (Tetravalent). The Lewis Dot Structure of Carbon consists of four unpaired electrons in the valence (outermost) region of the atom. These four bonding pairs could take the form of single, double, or triple co-valent bonds as long as the total adds up to four co-valent bonds. If one looks at the electronic configuration of a Carbon atom,1s2, 2s2, 2p2 one observes that there are only two unpaired electrons that could presumably be able to form a total of two bonding pairs when bonded to other atoms, but we have just said that most Organic compounds have Carbon in the Tetravalent state. Why is Carbon Tetravalent usually instead of Divalent as we might expect looking at the electronic configuration? Linus Pauling in the 1950's attempted to answer that question by proposing the Theory of Hybridization of Atomic Orbitals. He explained that Carbon atoms undergo one of three types of hybridization depending upon the energy available. If Carbon atoms underwent sp3 hybridization then it could form four single bonds with other atoms. If the Carbon atom underwent sp2 hybridization then it would form one double and two single bonds with other atoms. If a Carbon atom underwent sp hybridization then it would form a triple and a single bond with other atoms. In each case the carbon atom would have four unpaired electrons in the hybridized state explaining why Carbon is usually Tetravalent. Silicon is also said to be sp3 hybridized.
Sorry to be so brief lads ;)

if that's off the top of your head, what happens when you think for a while? :)
a google search zy or was tha really off the top of your head? :)

how much is for a copy of the game hitman? and why don't you open an account in an international bank so we can help you with the costs. we are about 3000 members if we give you 5 or 10 euros each would be a great help don't you think?
Zygalski
18-08-2003, 17:33
OK then. It was a search on ask.com
Apparently, http://www.teoma.com/ is a more useful search engine than google - just heard it today so not too sure. Anyone else heard of it?
zygalski, its very powerful and fordfocus, all respect to hitman2uk, but i dont think he can afford to give us all 10e each
fordfocus
18-08-2003, 19:06
we will give hitman 10e not him. in order to "help" him

Has anybody noticed that from the 3141 members only 247 (at the time of posting) has 10 or more posts? I think that anyone who doesn't post for over 1 month should be thrown out. what do you guys think?

You should write CVs for a living. :)

Do i sound good to you pic? :) I do sound good if i say so myself. :p
rebusrahman
06-09-2003, 22:13
Er... what?
What he says is that i sound really proffesional and it looks like iv taken it from CV! Thats all Rebus!
hearing of hitmans monetary issues running this website - EVERYBODY BUY PES3 OR WE7 THROUGH THIS WEBSITE!!!!!!
I think hitmans doing fine and yeah most of us already know to buy through amazon via this website. have you ordered PES3 or played We7?
