    Any Chance the Book returns before the 25th?

    this is brutal.
    I have two kids, 2 and under, so haven't "come over to the dark side" yet with my deposit to become pro and play with the big boys, but this sucks nonetheless. I miss playing with my points, as terrible as I am and as probably necessary as it is...
    Any chance this date gets moved up? please?

    Hi rthoughton,

    The downtime caused by the necessary upgrade stinks, but sometimes a car needs a new engine. Good news is this is likely the last surgery of its kind. We're aiming for the 25th, give or take.

    You're still able to get down in our manual prop/game-line threads. Check out SBR Contests too.

    I have $200, just not for gambling. thanks. Soon enough, though, thanks for your input. Maybe Ill ask for it for my birthday. ha.

    lou, thanks for the point. But I can't really play the in-thread lines, as much as Id love to, because I can only transfer 2. Another lovely change/perk once the pros came along.
    But, Ill be alright, a break never hurt anyone. Maybe Ill come back rolling. This might give me a little perspective.

    And other dude, ya, no casino, no racebook, no nuttin'.

    Thanks, i guess, for at least letting me load up, 6 at a time, for a couple weeks.

    It's not just the book. It's live chat, the casino, poker, everything. It's either do it all at once when it's more quiet in the summer and have people complain in one shot, or spread it out and have people get cranky repeatedly. And during busier times.

    If you're so sure the book won't be back, search Bill's posts and take him up on the bet he offered at +100 of it being back by the 25th I think.

    My wife is a first year physician. Just started her residency. I am/was a chef, but now I have the luxury of spending all of my time at home raising my children. It's fantastic.
    And no, we dont have tons of cash now to blow here and there, but in a couple of years, friends...
    I just like to play with my points. I guess that makes me a little girl or whatever...

    So, Im sorry for being such a loser, no cash, shouldn't-be-breeding ass... but thanks for the info.

    I think it's amazing how gigantic all of these assbags are on this forum. One thing is for sure, Gambling has made most of you miserable.
