Thanatos340 1 #3 November 23, 2005 I will be there. Just one question though.. Why 6:00PM Eastern time?? That will cut out many west cost people who will still be at work at that time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I guess it's because my time zone calculation was dyslexic. I will change it to 9:00pm ET. Thanks for the heads up. If you have already registered you will need to re-register after I remake the tourney. Skydive Radio Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

diverds 0 #13 November 26, 2005 Sorry to hear you had so many problems. Glad you got in. I think we're up to 5 registered now. Hopefully we will get at least 4 more to sign up. That would give us 1 full table. -Dave Skydive Radio Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boinky 0 #14 November 26, 2005 Awww...it's OK. I rationalize it by saying to myself that every time I have issues with my computer, I have to learn something new to make it work right. One of my favorite phrases is "Only the mediocre are always at their best." The way [B]MY[/B] computer acts, I'll be learning for the rest of my life!!!! Never have to worry about Alzheimer's that way! Nina Are we called "DAWGs" because we stick our noses up people's butts?

shellybellyfly 0 #15 November 28, 2005 Damn! The freaking thing will not take any of my credit cards... and I've even been practicing since it had been awhile since I've played... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
diverds 0 #16 November 28, 2005 Shelly, Open a Neteller account. That will accept your credit cards and pokerstars will accept neteller. It takes a day or two to sign up to neteller though. You have to verify your bank account the same way as with paypal. -Dave Skydive Radio Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thanatos340 1 #17 November 28, 2005 Anyone who wants to play in this tournament but doesnt want to Jump through all the Hoops to set up a Real Money Account (AND THAT I KNOW PERSONALLY), PM me and I can transfer money into your account so that you can play, You can just pay me back with Paypal or in person. You will need to set up a regular account and then PM me your User Name. It takes 24 to 48 Hours for an account transfer to show up so dont wait untill the last minute.

shellybellyfly 0 #18 November 28, 2005 Geez, Neteller won't work either. It would take 4-5 business days to verify my account info. I should NOT have waited until the last minute! They should just use paypal.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thanatos340 1 #19 November 28, 2005 Neteller or Firepay only takes 2 to 3 days usually. Go ahead and set it up. If it doent go through in time, We will find a way to get you in. As for Paypal... Once paypal was bought out by Ebay, Ebay decided they did not want to do business with Gambling sites. It is not the Poker sites not taking paypal.. It is Paypal not taking Gambling Sites.

NickDG 23 #22 November 28, 2005 Anyone getting the "bandwidth exceeded" message when trying to access Skydive Radio? NickD BASE 194 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
diverds 0 #23 November 28, 2005 The site is back up now. Sorry for the inconvenience. Our hosting company had to pull the plug on us until they could secure more bandwidth or they were going to loose all the other sites they host as well. We're trying to upgrade to 300 GB per month. If this works out we shouldn't have any more problems for awhile. Skydive Radio Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
diverds 0 #24 November 30, 2005 The Tourney is in 2 days. You still have time to sign up. Good luck. Skydive Radio Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
