CoasterBuzz Games now requires club membership

Priorities, priorities, priorities...

Like I've said... we get it, you don't see the value in it. That's fine, move along. The more people complain the more it makes my point.

What time does the water show start?

Why did you have to do this when I lost my job? It might be months before I not only get a new job, but get caught up on my bills, so that I could justify the $20.

Thank you spammers. I would have liked to use the site more, but now I can't.

Anyway, I am not happy about this either, but since it is Jeff's site, not mine, I will have to deal with it.

Jeff, thanks for at least not taking away downloading privaleges. That was the main feature I have used anyway. Hopefully, I will get a new job soon so I can post some of my designs. Do you have any need for a professional fundraiser?

EDIT: Maybe I could raise enough money for you to do your own hosting again :).

Hey... if I didn't become unemployed and lose my main advertising provider all in October 2001 there wouldn't have been a club at all. You'll get through it... don't let the world beat you down.

Thanks for the support Jeff, I really appreciate it. I don't know what I would do without your sites, as they help keep me from losing what little sanity I have.

I will hopefully join as soon as circumstances improve.

Only thing I am afraid of, or at least was afraid of, was that people wouldn't like my designs because I don't do scenery. If I join, maybe the nice folks will help me with adding scenery to my track files.

Can folks help me with the scenery stuff when I join? I think I have some nice designs. They just lack the scenery to make them worthy of all your creations.

AvalancheSam maybe now people will rate your files on what they do have(track design and such)instead of what they don't(scenery). That always irked me. Well that and the people who *****ed whe you gave yourself a 10. Hey if you thought it was good enough to share then you must be proud of it so give yourself a 10.

What is Chipotle?

$20 well spent I can't see a problem unless nobody else decides to pay and it turns into a 5 person ride exchange.

Wonder if Jeff'll start posting :)

A chipotle pepper is a jalapeno pepper that has been dried and smoked, but in this case I'm talking about the restaurant that sadly has not appeared quite everywhere just yet:

Hey, Jeff posts some of the most fun user created scenarios around. They're certainly "in the spirit" of the included ones - more so than any player created scenarios I've found yet.

Chipotle: the restaurant chain that is owned by mc'y d's -- love the fact that there are like a billion in the Chicago area.

A little side-note to all the people complaining about paying.... why not go start your own site? Put you're own hard-earned moeny into it if you don't like this one. See how much bandwidth actually costs. See how much time it takes to run one of these, keep it up to date, keep you're community happy. Do that and only then will you finally begin to see what Jeff here has to put up with.

Amen to that one ^

I used to go to Chipotle all the time - until I discovered Baja Fresh. A lot more choice, much better food, and when you get a burrito, it isn't nine parts rice and one part everything else.

Also, it's owned by Wendy's.... mmmm.

McD's only owns a stake in Chipotle... I don't think they're outright owners. I mean, it's the most low-tech restaurant I've ever seen, which is exactly the opposite of McD's.

I'm from England............all we have are ploughmans pub lunches :/

Don't forget blood pudding!

How is Chipotle low-tech? The interiors are about as po-mo as you can get, and it's not like they use an abacus to figure your bill...

No, but they do work on the barter system. Two beaver pelts and a hammer for some burritos.

The only piece of technology I've seen in a Chipotle restaurant is the cash register. They have no electronic signs, they have the cheapest fixtures you can get and the line is little more than a standard production line that requires humans to order and humans to prepare.

As webmaster of sixflagshouston.com, I totally understand what Jeff has to put up with. I've actually asked Jeff once or twice for advice on dealing with stupid people. I don't consider my website and Jeffs website competition, because I mainly focus on Texas parks... so... since I DID go and start my own website and have a ton of costs involved myself, perhaps Jeff should consider letting fellow webmasters in the club for free. Well, those of us who run respectable sites anyway. Afterall, we ALL have to deal with the 'tards. In fact, in one case, I had to get a RESTRAINING ORDER and in another I had to get the ACE EC involved. The things webmasters have to go through.
