Let's see what we can come up with here...

If You Set You Alarm For Midnight Just To Check The New Deals...You Might Be An ApexAddict!

If you leave a browser open on the deals Forums page so you can go back and refresh it every 5 minutes...... you might be an ApexAddict. http://www.gotapex.com/ubb/smile.gif

If you set up an auto-refresh script that automatically refreshes the deals page.

Bonus ApexAddict points:

The script notifies you via email/noise that the page has been changed.

I don't actually have a script written up yet, I'm sorta lazy like that. If I get around to making something like it I will create a mailing list for everyone. I'm warning you all that I am very very lazy so it might take me a little while to get around to it.

You might be an ApexAddict, if you stop at the local library to see if anyone responded to your post, on the way to and from work.

Especially if the library is 10 minutes away!

05-19-2000, 07:58 PM
Yeah, but just how much money does he make while we're looking at his website! Quite a bit considering he's now a full-time webmaster for gotapex.com and still has enough time to plan a 500 person wedding and pay for it...

Man I've said this before and I will say this again...Apex has us all brain washed. I was wondering why everytime I went to the deals page before it came up there would be a flash of black on the screen. Next time that comes up...try to print screen it. I finally caught it and it reads "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"

Scary stuff but it's true. For all you newbies, I got one piece of advice. RUN It's too late for people like SBP, Hapoo, Maggie, and me. If you leave now you may have a chance. http://www.gotapex.com/ubb/eek.gif

NiceMann I deleted what it says. You should have never been able to catch it. I have speeded up the timing now. Try to catch it now!

You might be an Apex addict if not being able to find out the "hidden message" at the beginning of the deals page is going to ruin your week.

i don't think so, but did i go too far when i set up a specific grant to ensure that UCLA students would be posting under a shared name, "ProMinx," well into the 37th century? I just put all of the money that I saved from the deals that this page got me, so that's somewhere around "10 beeeeeeeeeeellion dollars."
