Da Penguin Senior Member USA 1094 Posts	Posted - 11 Jun 2002 : 17:49:51 Power to you trash! There is a reason that website listing i made WAS made. I clearly told anyone to email me if they had a problem with it. I recieved an email from wonko, and wonko alone. Because of this i feel everyone should stick to what they eitehr posted there, or adjust friendly. I almost doubled the money i originally put in, yet have not doubled my "portion." I think we need to all sit back and stick to what was originally said. No one has pulled what we have off before, let this go down in history as a successful coop.

AnubisTTP Junior Member USA 308 Posts	Posted - 11 Jun 2002 : 17:55:09 Penguin, did you get my check yet? I mailed it last Friday. Looking over Timacs list, it looks like there will be enough floppys and CD ROM drives and plastic bits for everyone to get at least one mostly complete Mac.

thelip Full Member USA 729 Posts	Posted - 11 Jun 2002 : 18:01:53 I agree with trash and penguin, as i said in the beginning as well, i would help make up some slack with funds. I also hope that this problem doesn't mess up future ebay attempts. I say we stick with the list a close as possible and make sure that everybody manages to get a case and mobo. If that's too much to ask then i'll regret joining this group. blood pressure dropping, returning to chair Sgt.

We need a good way of getting this together. I'm thinking maybe new topic for JUST that. No side comments or anythign else?

Just a thought. it's a good thought, but i think it makes more sense to keep EVERYTHING about this venture right here. this is an historic event and it deserves to be unfolded in the open for the entire Army and everyone who visits us to see. if someone breaks faith with the spirit of sharing fairly, they will have to do it in the open. this thing started out and developed that way and i think that is how it should be finished. comments? jt ™.

Wonkothesane Full Member USA 506 Posts	Posted - 11 Jun 2002 : 18:20:13 One system per person? I'm okay with that. What about parts though? I can't make much use of it without keyboards and mice, though. I would also like a CD-ROM drive, if the 6240 doesn't have one. If no one wants the RAM or Manhattan board, I'd like that too (ONLY if no one else wants it though-if you would like to take it, please speak up). I hope I'm not asking for too much.

And yes, i agree with that, i only meant that its hard jumping from page to page to see what ppl said :-/. other than that tho it SHOULD be left open. I want ppl to do what they want and i want all to watch. This will either be great or terrible, whicever it is, all should and shall see.

NO REPORTS will be issued to ANYONE about which systems are actually functional until we reach a consensus. i trust Ti to be impartial and to keep quiet. everyone will decide whether to vote for keeping what it is determined that they claimed when they offered to join or to choose ONE BOX from their claim and X number of alternates from the remainder with the expectation that they will get their first choice or first alternate or second alternate, whichever system is determined to be functional. the extra systems stay at Ti's until all the boxen arrive without suffering the fate of the UPS'ed 950 now listed among the deceased. if one cannot be made to work, yadda yadda i say you guys vote on the plan blind, i abstain as does Ti because he knows too much about how the chips may fall and i covered his stake when he ran out of funds and i fully expect him to go along with me as a personal favor even if he disagrees with me. email me privately if you object to my suggestions, Ti. that's the best i can do now, gotta get some sleep, i was fried MUCH earlier today! comments? jt ™.

I can still have what i claimed in the beginng, its still available. But here is my suggestion: Everyone take a step back, look at what u contributed, then EMAIL me with what u want. That way no one knows who else wants the same stuff. This way we can figure out what needs to be divided up and what doesnt.

Captain Z Mobile Ops Commander USA 637 Posts	Posted - 12 Jun 2002 : 12:01:37 According to what was claimed prior to winning the auction, the Mini Towers were claimed by TiMac, myself, and AnubisTTP. The Desktops were claimed by myself, Da Penguin, and TheLip. The 6400's were claimed by TiMac, Da Penguin, and Wonkothesane. The 6100 and Performa 6300 were originally claimed by TiMac, but he changed his claim after he found out what was in the lot, to include a Desktop and drop the 6100. I think TiMac, TheLip, and CyberWolf are working something out, but I don't know who is has come yet. ------------------ Captain Z - Mobile Operations Commander 68K Macintosh Liberation Army 18 68K Macs Liberated Visit Captain Z's Starbase of EV Stuff

AnubisTTP Junior Member USA 308 Posts	Posted - 12 Jun 2002 : 13:41:55 Why don't we just follow what was on the table? I probably missed some critical decision at some point, but the stuff in the table seems to line up with what is in the actual lot. It seems to me that the original plan was to use what parts were in the lot(floppy drives, motherboards, and whatnot) to finish off the computers as much as possible, and not worry about the rest of the parts until after everyones computers had been supplied with replacement parts.
