Just trying to keep the thread up ............. May help alot of us ........... GL

Just to bring to your attention that 2 of these people posted on this thread promoting "do it yourself" are using a fast service on scramble day. They promote slow delivery "do it yourself" to beat you toward the scramble. I have seen few posts by the same pople talking of using a scramble service. Just wonderign why they are doing that!

I have seen few posts by nisma and paradoxic...pleas step up and tell us.

Just warning you that emotions are high and you may get in trouble for such tricks...it happened before.

If you never have done that on your own do not listen to anyone.
