  1. Before the pandemic I would go to Florida at least once a year for a couple of weeks to escape the snow for a little while. Those were great times, not sure when and if they will return sadly. I would have gladly joined you for drink then!
  2. I know this has been said before, but what was the highest an IK GB went to? Are we inline to beat it when we turn to 11 or do we need more than that?
  3. But can be fun nonetheless in some instances. Depends on how seriously or not you believe in your prediction! ?
  4. I keep wondering what the breakdown of participants is. Since many, like myself, have entered more than once, how many unique participants there are? ? And what is the breakdown of once, twice, thrice or more entries participant is. Of course you realize I need to just pick up my guitar and play and forget about all this nonsense... I'll do it come October 1st, I promise! ?
  5. In an effort to get more entries into this thread, I propose a guess the number of freebies at the end of September contest! There are no rules, and you can use as many spreadsheet as you'd like for this! But if I where you, I would limit my guesses between 11 and 24! Oh, and be reasonable on the font size! ? Hopefully, the grand winner (or winer whichever suits him best!) of the unofficial and undisclosed "will we make it to 10,000 in time for an extension" contest will enlightened us with his best guess. Of course you all must have recognized I am talking about our own favorite IK guy: @Peter - IK Multimedia ! ? Anybody can enter the contest, even @cclarry who's knowledge of clocks is rather limited... ? Personally, being a true optimistic, my entry in the contest is of course 24! ? Edit: since there seems to be many different and not so flattering definitions for "winer", the one I refer to here is from the urban dictionary: "Someone who only drinks top shelf, high end wines."
  6. No this can't be! We can't let this happen! ?
  7. Juste woke up and saw the counters! This is my first GB and it is gonna be the best ever! Thanks IK! Ok, maybe IK's 50th anniversary GB will beat it!
  8. Understandable, clocks are very complicated things! ?
  9. Hey, we both agree, we both want you to be wrong! ?
  10. 8904 participants, c'mon lucky 10000 c'mon!!!
  11. ... but if you can get your kids to jump in, you can show them all the tricks! We won't tell anyone. Our lips are sealed! ?
  12. I like you Larry and all the help you give on this forum, but I hope this group buy will prove you wrong! ?
  13. And miss all the challenge of doing it myself! You take all the fun out of group buys! ?
  14. The suspense is killing me! ? Even my wife is asking where the group buy is at! ? But that's probably sarcastic and probably means: "Hey, did you just refresh that Group Buy counter page yet again!" ?
  15. Thanks mibby, this one is different and seems a very interesting concept. I'll have to give it a try!
  16. I agree yes, you will get great help in this forum for the best possible deals. I sure have. You got help from some of the best here. I would have gladly helped if I had seen a reply to my response in the GB thread. If you re-read my post you will understand that I was genuinely sad to hear your distress. I really thought you had left never to return. I am just glad everything turned out fine. Now, we just need to convinced you to get in for a second buy so we can make it over the 10000 tier to get an extra month! ?
  17. I am glad you didn't give up! In the other thread when you said you had given up I felt bad, honestly. This forum should not deter anyone from a good sale. I hear what you are saying about the complication of gear credits, jam points etc. and respect yours and everyone else's opinion on this. But, like I responded to you in the group thread, buying at the shown price is fine and would still yield a great group buy deal. Going the convulated way is just to get the best possible deal, nothing else. Save a few bucks. Its akin to shopping around for the best price possible for say a TV and then searching for coupons for the store, if they exist, to bring a price even lower. Some like to spend the time doing these research, some simply don't care to spend the time and pay retail is fine for them. This forum has been a great source of info on this, and many other deals, and it did make my head hurt trying to figure this one out at first. ? When I did understand it, I was glad for the knowledge it gave to save me a few bucks. But it's this forum, and other forums, that are raking our brains with how this deal works! Which btw I am very grateful for, not complaining. Lets be honest, IK never made it mandatory to use these methodes of bringing down the price! They just offer deals, like many other businesses, and its up to us to use them or not. And be ready to understand how they work. We may agree or disagree on how they setup their business model, but we always have the choice of foregoing the deals if it does not suit us. As for the support experience you have gotten, its not ideal I agree. Maybe they are overwelmed with this GB, but its not an excuse. And its not only a waste of time for you, but for them also. If it helps, from this forum I have seen many positive post about IK's support. I never had to deal with support yet so I can't offer personal experience and hope you have better luck next time.
  18. Oh yes we will Will you guys make up your minds! ?
  19. Exactly! I was drawn to the orange side of the force when IK gave away the Tiny Terror! Great crunch sound with good mids that come through the mix. I love it and the name of the amp reminds me of my 2 year old granddaughter! ? The Orange pack is high on my list of freebies!
  20. I think I'll reserve getting the brickwall only if the GB gets into so many freebies that I have exhausted other choices. The stealth should probably be enough for me.
  21. Quick question. If I get the T-Racks Stealth Limiter, is there any reason to also get the Brickwall Limiter? Does the stealth do everything the brickwall does and more?
