Re: Top times: Full Network Challenge
Marc Gawleys time was posted and VERIFIED by Guinness so yes, I trust it is valid.
As no time nor person, although is no doubt Adham has been posted then yes I will take that with a pinch of salt

Re: Top times: Full Network Challenge

Re: Top times: Full Network Challenge
How do I miss the point exactly? You're posting that a time has been completed, yet are not willing to post the time, so you're better off saying NOTHING in the first place then causing aggro.palkanetoijala31 wrote:but you miss the point sam gawley and adham treated same no was gawley ever criticised for not posting his time no he wasnt and in fact a lot of secrecy in routes and planning and times all came from his successful attempt! did a lot of people ask for his route well yes they did did he have a right to be secretive yes he did.Sam wrote:Marc Gawleys time was posted and VERIFIED by Guinness so yes, I trust it is valid.

Re: Top times: Full Network Challenge
my point is why does it cause you aggro not knowing then! for example a few people on here found about the ians attempt a lot wouldnt have known about in fact there are probably more attempts going on each day that no one knows about but someone decided to post about it so you now actually know!Sam wrote:How do I miss the point exactly?

for example you were very upset i lied about going out dec 14th 2009 but there is and was no reason for me to tell you we had planned it well before your dec 4th attempt you got record then and well done on that perhaps
the point here is sam you dont like me i dont like you you dont like for this and that reason and i dont like you for this and that reason etc. (tubeguru can i have a moderator position
getting back to topic top times the officlal top ten doesnt even really matter even the top 50 doesnt matter even the top one the record doesnt matter because in my case for example and sorry geoff i have to quote you here no hard feelings
anybody can beat the record and i wouldnt give a monkeys some people continue to the bitter end people like geoff wont continue if past 17h (the record is all he wants) and sorry geoff you are the person i like least to break it sorry! but i have reasons for this a) your dont respect other tube challengers b) you have held before let someone who hasnt broken do so first and c) i just think with the team rhys coming up snapping at the heels its the youth turn to rise up and be the future sorry but that is just my opinion
but hell if you were to break it then well done its about time someone did and perhaps they did this second as writing this who knows the top times should be taken as hey my name is on board myles is on board rhys politician on board welcome 2 ians mc intyre and imrie on board

Re: Top times: Full Network Challenge
Right, lets clear one thing up shall we, I don't particularly CARE whether I am in the top 10 or not, that is not my issue.
My issue is with you posting about something then not backing it up with facts, just a little "I know something you don't", which you have a habit of, no one else does that... yes someone else could well be out there now, and ya know what I don't give a stuff.
If you aren't willing to post the full story then SAY NOTHING and no one will get on your case, but hey, we've been here before and you feel you can do no wrong.
Oh, and for the record, I wasn't bothered about your record attempt being done in secret, it was you and Steve telling me you had no plans anytime soon to go out... that's called LIES, there is a big difference between keeping something quiet and out and out lying. I don't like liars hence why I don't like you.
Grow up.

Geoff hasn't had this configuration, his record was on the 275 configuration. I think he should be allowed this one once!

look yes i lied you put me in a spot at the time perhaps the right thing to do was put the phone down perhaps!
and yes i can do wrong but so can others i admit this freely the point is when i do it people get on my back when others do it then dont and yes others do it they have been well documentated posts in this forum when people have done wrong do they get same treatment as me hell no!
the simple fact is i posted ff on my signature a fact unknown to everyone until tubeguru brought it up 2 months after i did it does it allude to a secret organisation a nwo as it were and it was ss before that if you go back far enough (tubeguru can confirm this perhaps) i have no wish to reveal this until it actually happens revealing before then could scupper some of my plans.
and no its not a secret organisation if i post a person time and dont reveal i did reveal ******** 2 time he called me up at 23:45 when i was asleep with sara at time i remember the date tired i just said well done and that i was tired and congratulations call me in morning please!
besides there have always been factions on this board forum you cant help people falling out with each other that is human nature unfortunately

Anyone who can get around the network in a time below 16 hours, 29 minutes and 13 seconds deserves the record in my opinion...
