Oh noooo

Just had the mother of all brainfarts and reported my own high score on audiosurf.
My logic went like this:
"Wow I wish I knew what my high score was before bonuses so I'd know what to aim for" (I was in second place by ~4000 points)
"Hmm I'll look around the high score screen and see if I can find a more detailed score breakdown"
"Oh look 'report' great a score report that must be it"
*click*

....yep, it nuked my score. After playing it again I'm still in second place, but now I'm trailing by more like 71 000 points. Fffff.

I can't seem to connect to Bay 12 at all from my own IP.  After being assured by ToonyMan that I hadn't been banned, I've tried and found out that I can only access here via a proxy.  Huhh.

I would bet money Andrew has edited things retroactively, except I can't prove anything because it was edited retroactively.

Hey, remember some months ago, when I had the exact same problem with the Iron Tower Studios forums? I have that now again too, for no apparent reason.

Huhh indeed.

A corporation I won a roughly $60K judgment against is playing corporate shell games: they have intentionally looted every asset from the company as I was about to forcibly levy against... their bank accounts. Thus, they have quite quickly turned their corporation into a shell of its former self with nothing to take.... The bank account balance is was $445, and over 700K has been recently withdrawn.... This serves no real purpose beyond delay, as I shall track them to the ends of the earth and pierce corporate veils/garnish the individual directors personally if I can establish alter ego defense.

It does, however, add numerous unappreciated hours to my work....

Winning, merely gives you a piece of paper called a judgment. Then you have to collect. Defense counsel wants me to settle for $45K and this might be the prudent thing to do rather than fight them, but fuck that.... I consider this a form of extortion, but clearly "the corporation is well within it's rights...." This is legalized theft; I hate his very soul....

$445 down, $58,281 to go.... Fuck I hate this corporate abuse....

unfortunately the abuse/theft is the reason.... [sigh]

Edit: I'm sorry Leafsnail, it occurred to me after the fact that you might be talking about something else, that's the odd nature of message boards.... My apologies.

Oh, sorry, I didn't really check to see if what I said could be taken in another context with regards to your post.
