omg you actually got help? Zandi's the **** basically. Here's my response when I asked them to write my paper and if I could concierge it as a supernova. First though I had asked for motivational limerick because haikus didn't do it for me (http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/54...wesome-357676/). These are my responses:

Hello Zachary,

Thank you for your email.

The motivation of our players to hit milestones is of the utmost
importance to us, and when confronted with such a motivational request, we
have one of our specialists undertake the task.

I have forwarded your message to a limerick specialist for review. Please
allow us some time to research this matter; it may take several days if
the matter is particularly complex. We will be back to you as soon as
possible.

Thank you in advance for your patience.

Regards,

Andy

Hello Zachary,

Thank you for contacting PokerStars.

Unfortunately we are unable to write your essay for you. I have decided to
kill two birds with one stone and explain our position in the form of a
limerick:

We do not condone plagiarism,
Your essay by you must be written.
If you write it yourself,
without our help,
you'll avoid academic derision.

I wish you all the best in writing your essay and in getting your 200k
milestone bonus by the end of the year. If there is anything else we can
help you with, please do not hesitate to contact us again.

Thank you for choosing PokerStars, and best of luck at the tables!

Also even if you don't, email Stars support and request that they give Zandi D a raise .

Wonder if PS gives benefits? The people there seem to have a great time with their jobs.
12-05-2008 , 03:07 PM
Okay, so you know how my location has been "Watching the mail?" Well today the paperwork finally came. One problem though...IT WASN'T SIGNED!!! asjfsdkjfsadkjfsdjfasldjasjdfjsdflasj

Not much I can do about it immediately so reframing my response from this: to this: .
12-05-2008 , 03:20 PM
It was probably a mistake but that's a ****ing weakass thing to do IYAM.

Also, its all about reframing


edit: can you see how much the cat has grown in that pic I posted?

Oh, sorry I wasn't more clear. The ex did sign it but the judge didn't. LOL


I liked the pictures that were big enough to see, but the cat one is too small on this pc. Can't even tell there is a cat in the photo. Maybe take a new one? Surely everyone 's pet photos (except DQH ofc).
12-05-2008 , 03:37 PM
Does anyone have money on Stars they're interested in trading for FT money? I'm looking for up to 10K, I'm willing to pay a vig. PM if you're interested.

Hello XXXXXXX,

Thank you for your email.

A very nifty method that you can use is to place the events in question in
the future (as the assignment, as you describe it, has no time limit), where
Egypt is suddenly faced with a surge of growing undercover alien population
and they eat tobacco for a living, then you can much more entertainingly
discuss the implications of the rise of tobacco consumption on the Nile
plains, which would probably all be used to grow tobacco. You can also
involve a special squad of the Health Ministry trying to combat lung cancer.

Or alternatively, put it in the past and discuss the effect of tobacco on
dinosaurs (you can just make it up, as no research has been done yet).

And after you fail your course, you can become a successful science fiction
writer.

Alternatively you could be boring and use
www1.worldbank.org/tobacco/pdf/country%20briefs/egypt.doc and

http://www.who.int/tobacco/media/en/Egypt.pdf

and perhaps stick in

http://www.euromonitor.com/Tobacco_in_Egypt

and to be entertaining use

http://hypography.com/forums/history...n-mummies.html


and there's always

www1.worldbank.org/tobacco/pdf/Nassar%20-%20The%20Economics%20-%20whole.pdf

If you get a good grade please let us know. If you do not, it is not our fault.

If there is anything else we can do for you, please do not hesitate to
contact us.

I already was using the fourth link anyways. Shouldve just had stars do the research apparently.
This is quite possibly the most amazing thing i have ever seen

Zandi,

Thank you very much for this well thought out email. I had already planned on using the second worldbank source, but the other 3 seem to be of great use too. I'll try to work them in. If I don't use them I'll put them in the bibliography anyways. Professors love that type of thing. I'm still debating on if I'll go the dinosaur or alien route with the paper. Its now about 60% finished, but I think I'll throw in a surprise twist at the end.

BlueDevils09



Hello XXXXXXX,

Thank you for your email.

I am glad to be of help. Please be aware that if you include the twist you will need to telegraph it through-out your work, by having your characters stare mysteriously or smile secretively, that's how the Hollywood movies do it anyway (and it helps if you give the secretly evil character a German or British accent; bonus points if he is a scientist and the good guy is a regular Joe).

Another good tip I have heard is to read a really obscure work and quote it a few times, then you can put the more obvious ones in the bibliography and it will lead people to believe you actually read all of them.

To quote PokerStars support please use the following system: PokerStars Support. (2008) Personal Email Correspondence - email received on 2/DEC/2008. [it's always better to make it seem you actually started working before the last day]

If there is anything else we can do for you, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Thank you again Zandi. I was wondering if I could concierge an edited copy of my paper a few hours from now and how much that would cost?

Thanks again,
BlueDevils09




Hello XXXXXXX,

Thank you for your email.

Of course such a transaction is possible, our concierge knows no limits
(last year a very dedicated player purchased the Milky Way), unfortunately
the cost to concierge an edited copy of your paper would be exactly 1 more
FPP than your total amount of FPPs.

Please use this handy formula to calculate the cost yourself.

cost of concierging the paper to you = [your FPPs] + 1

If there is anything else we can do for you, please do not hesitate to
contact us.

Can anyone suggest a good Christmas gift for my parents? I'm graduating from college, have some money to spend, and am looking to get them something big as a thank you for dealing with 21 years of my bull****. I was going to book them a cruise, but my mom doesn't have a passport, and I don't know if she would have liked that anyway. Any other ideas?
12-05-2008 , 06:52 PM


Or



Imo.
12-05-2008 , 06:57 PM
OMG Jeanie since we've been discussing locations is yours from Who Frame Roger Rabbit??? That was one of my favorites as a kid.
On a related note, there is a dude who I've seen on stars a couple times with a Jessica Rabbit Avatar who's name is something like nice boobies or something; whatever it was it was pretty disturbing that he was so enamored of a cartoon character

...that said, Jessica Rabbit was hot.
