Frist will be reserved for you at the Cheshunt Store until null.

Obviously, the ERROR guy from Zelda 2 made a comeback in a dlink router.
|
|
Second to say FRIST !
|
|
I'll say frist now so it will be posted back then.
|
|
ERROR: The comment is error.
|

That much to get your marbles blasted? I can get that done for free by my angry bird just by going home late.
Guess it's one more bonus for Android, even angry birds is free for that. |
|
Well they do say you can run Linux on a toaster so why not a hand dryer? Maybe it folds proteins or something between blasts
|
|
Hand dryers have come a long way from the days of:
1. RUB HANDS UNDER wARM air 2. PUSH BUTTon 3. RECEIVE BACON |
|
I hope Bill did submit an error report after reading that detailed (and only partially illegible) description.

I like the check box. If you are not between 30 and 40, then you have the option of being 2 ages. If you are between 30 and 40, you have to be 2 ages.
Looks like a bsd or nix box. I don't think its applicable because it appears to be having a problem connecting to the server it gets its ads from. Fix the server (or failed hardware), reboot the hand dryer, and you are golden. |

I actually like the suggested names for Kyle. They break out of the boring "Kyle5838, or Kyle5839, or Kyle5840..." rut and encourage more wide-ranging solutions.
It might be a bug, it might be a small chunk of fun code that also picks some random pieces. |
|
I immediately recognized Jonski's "sleep interrupted" example as ColdFusion.
I suspect it is a custom thrown error using CFTHROW that the developer forgot to handle. Oops. |

First post ships on April 17th
Guaranteed delivery by April 13th |

Enter your name: Alex Papadumbass
That name is available! |
|
Anyone else find it weird that the person is scheduling store pick up of the item while they're in the store? I feel like it'd be simpler to walk over and just pick up the item...
|
|
SO THAT'S THE DICK THAT STOLE MY NAME
|
|
A large PC chain has cheaper online prices than instore.
It's a common trick to go in the store, get out your phone and reserve the item online to collect from the store later. Leave store, go grab food, come back, collect item. My friend and I both got £70 instore goods for £40 like that, which was quite welcoming. |
What exactly are you planning on doing with that, you sicko? |

What if the item won't be on the shelf until NULL? I don't feel like hanging around the store that NULL. |
|
See where it says click for details?
when you do, it pops up a little box that says "next year" |
|
We've seen that sort of pricing on the Xbox network before. In this case, it is meant to make the item unavailable for new downloads by making it prohibitively expensive while still allowing re-downloads from someone who has already purchased the content. If you manage to find Marble Blast Ultra on the website (you need to click through from someone who has played it, it's been removed from search) you will see none of the usual download options.
Other times, the very high price has been used to prevent downloads of pre-release items that are available to reviewers only using a download code. |

That's not a hand drier, notice the perfectly angled tube at the bottom. Hence the need for it to be more complex.
|
|
According to Kotaku:
The studio behind the game told XBLA Fans that the title was removed in the confusion over who now owns the rights to it. It sounds like GarageGames was rebranded as Instant Action in 2009 and reformed after Instant Action shut down. Unfortunately, much of GarageGames' intellectual property was sold off in the meantime. That included the rights to Marble Blast Ultra. It's not even known who owns its rights. |
|
Maybe they got as far as 30-40 before noticing that persons with ages evenly divisible by 10 could claim two ranges, then they forgot again. Bad at math, easily distracted, don't we all know many people like that?
|
|
The Marble Blast Ultra is just a hack. It's been removed from the marketplace because of licensing issues so MS just set the points value to -1, since you can still try to get there from the trial game that shipped with some 360s
|
|
If they are blasting your marbles, is that the same as getting your balls busted?
Or do we need that *nix drying to blast our marbles? And how does the plush pony come into play here? So many things I'm not sure I want the answer for. |
|
I think it's just their slogan: 'LEGO Mindstorms - no matter how old you are, they can make you feel like a 30-40 year old grownup' |
They're just facing the reality that people between 30 and 40 are going to lie about their age anyway. So, you can put the age you are, and the age you want to be. |
OK, that's it, we have officially reached the end of civilization. It can't get any worse. Oops! I guess it can get worse! |
Yeah, but you're only 40 for about a nanosecond before you turn 40.000000000000000000000000001 so now you're not in the 30-40 range any more. And it will take you longer than that to hit submit. |
Yes but who does that. Being 40 for the whole year is the whole point. You don't need to tell anybody you are older than you are. I'm 28. When I'm 28 years and 364 days and someone asks me how old I am, I'm gonna tell them I'm 28. If I have a radio button and I can choose 20-30 or 30-40, and I'm 30, I'm choosing 20-30. Find me someone else who would choose the latter and maybe they can do qa for fake nagesh. |
|
They didn't say which December 23.
|
|
They took down Marble Blast Ultra over a year ago because of some licensing issue. Too bad that number wasn't negative.

Checkbox is the age of the buyer. Radio buttons are the age of the end user -- or the person who shows the buyer how to use the product.
Captcha Bene
|
That was my thought. Maybe it has an old P4 and uses the waste heat from the CPU for drying hands. |
|
|
If you're 30 or 40, you're supposed to click the checkbox AND the radio button above or below, because both apply. Hence the checkbox. |

There was a retail chain (Best Buy, I believe) which, up until a couple of years ago (when this "trick" was made public), would have its website display the in-store price if you were using the in-store kiosks, which prevented you from doing just what you describe. |
Well no, because if you are not between 30 and 40 then you would not check the box, which means you would only be one age. |
Hence the word "Option". My point was that radio buttons are mandatory. So if you are between 30 and 40, you would check the box, but there's no way to uncheck all the radios. Also, when I say you have the option of being 2 ages, I mean you will be lying about 1 of them. My point was form validation. Your point was "Real Life". Real life and I don't get along really well, So I'm gonna stick with Form validation. |
|
Your item will be ready for pickup on December 22, 2012
|
|
I haven't quoted fractional ages since I was about 10.
In any case, I don't know my age to quite so many decimal points; I can tell you the time of my birth to within about 3 hours, say 1/3000 of a year. Captcha: facilisis as facilis does. |

The in-store kiosks changed the price when you used your phone? |
|
TRWTF is that you cannot use LEGO products if you are more than 99 years old.
|
What will happen when someone with $53 million tries to buy it? Clearly this workaround is only delaying the problem. Now more seriously, I find it hard to believe that they can't just fix this server-side. |

They are afraid you'll choke on the small pieces. |
It was more than that; they would redirect anyone using their in-store Wi-Fi to a different site with the store prices; instead of the online prices you might see at home. |
