Eric,

did you take those eclipse pics through welding glasses?

Through one of my welding helmets.

Here's the bike without the helmet cam

Is it really that hard?

I agree! Maybe even take a pic on the same ride on your way to get the existing tag is ok too. It's pretty easy to do as I've played this game off and on for almost 2 years. I'm not the riding game police

but the original rules listed say up to 48 hrs for next tag, but it really should be the same day or maybe within a couple of hours to keep interest going. Otherwise it's a free new tag for the first one to post up. So rather than turn this into a major controversy, Spyder needs to post a tag today by 7:34pm EST or anyone can start a new tag. And in the future try to post up the new tag on the same run even if it's not very creative. Could be that we're starting to run out of ideas.

If you are sitting on your computer waiting for the next tag get a life.

Yeah! It got cold here. I took that picture as I was about to pull into my garage. Noticed my neighbor has a tramp. Haven't got back on the bike since then. Don't want to wait for it then skip me. It's just a game guys. No points and no trophies...

No skipping ! Maybe when we get more people playing, the rules can be modified. But for now " the rules is the rules ! "

Not getting off that easy. Cold, rain etc. don't matter. Otherwise you'll have to sign a waiver of tag form in triplicate! Now get out here...The world is waiting!!

If you're gonna be that way, we'll apply a 48 minute tag rule for you

I'll get it after work today. Was going to ride but it was a balmy 48 degrees. Too cold for me on a 32 mile trek to work.

**Guest** · 05-22-2012, 09:22 AM

Yeah, we're having fun now!

Everybody having fun? Somebody let me know when it becomes a GAME again, and I'll start playing again. Sorry, if this offends the "it's a game, not a compitition" crowd, but where I grew up "games" are competitive. Not this PC crap, where it's not fair, because I can't get a trophy like those who try harder and make an effort. There is a thread for those who like to take liesurely rides and post their photos. Not to long ago we had 4 tags in one day! Two or three tags in a week, are you kidding me! I see hints, but no one wants to say it out loud, so I will. This was a fun game, but now it's "BOREING". Ok, my rants over, have a nice day.

I totally agree!! I mean come guys lets just change the "rules" to state that you have to post the "new tag" with the "old tag" being met. It is not that hard and by the whinning Spyder has been doing about the "it's cold" and "I forgot" and saying he got the tramp tag just before he entered his garage it sounds like he pushed his bike out of the garage and got the pic. My neighbor has a tramp but I rode somewhere to get mine! Like Rick said if you wanna take your time post it in the "went for a ride" thread. And I also agree it was fun now it is a snore fest of green pictures. You guys can call me an ahole all you want but I'm with Rick either this speeds up or I am out of here too. My apologies to Spyder for my comments as I don't mean to be hard on you but it's just not cool.

C'mon Rick, we need more players, not less. You've made some great tags.

**bccap** · 05-22-2012, 09:40 AM

Why not have a poll, with a finite period of time ? You Yanks can look on it as the First Amendment. Then it's settled once and for all.

Don't worry, it will pick up the pace when winter rolls back around.

Simple... YOU POST BOTH TAGS AT THE SAME TIME!!!

I mean come on since I started playing this game last Sept. It is safe to say that I have been one of the more frequent posters, yet everytime I posted both at the same time. And I ain't that smert either!

Trevor, I meant the poll had a finite period of time, and then the rules are changed or they aren't.

Oh ok Garth

sorry. Why don't we start with the question..
Should both tags have to be posted at the same time?
