Thanks David! :-)

I've been waiting a couple hours this morning to get back to the Forums... As everyone is aware, they had been down since last night. It is good to be back. :-)


The rules:

1. Winner of the last thread starts the new one with a post of these rules.
2. Chooses a future event which triggers the winner, e.g. post number, date-time, and records it privately somehow (yellow sticky, etc.)
3. Everyone has fun posting until the target event is reached.
4. When the target is reached, old winner posts declaration of new winner and also PMs them.
5. Shortly after this a Mod will lock the recently won thread. (My preference is for the winner to ask the mods to lock the old thread after the new one is started.)
6. No double posts. Violator buys a round for the house in Rocky's Pub.

Congratulations TimeLord - I trust you didn't use the TARDIS to establish exactly what criteria were required for victory....

Curiously, I believe he would have also won if it had been the last post before I got v8s for GPU.

Finally, after over a month, I can once again say Ping!

Message 1759291 - Posted: 25 Jan 2016, 23:33:26 UTC

Came home to find a sticky note from UPS on my door. That's odd, I thought, I'm not expecting a package. So after doing other necessary things, I went online and looked up the number on it. It's for a pickup. That's even odder, I thought. I'm not sending a package either. After a brief fight with their voice response system, I got to a person, who said there was no company name for whoever entered the order, just "return center." I said I'm not sending a package and they said okay, we'll cancel the pickup for tomorrow.

Ping!

Winning after work.
Things slowing down, only 5 machine operators left.
Progressing on end-of season maintenance.
Techs may be done sometime next week.
Ready for a vacation.

Nyet(No), it's just hardware for 3 video cards, specifically from Siberia, via air mail, complete w/tracking.


An Asetek pump and either an 80mm or 92mm fan mounted on a video card.
