ok, I REALY want some 40mm s&s but I don't get the money unitil the 24th.

And it's torture for me, and as torture is agasint the human rights I feel all of you should give me money so I can buy some figs.

Lets say I get 1 dollar for each post I've posted on this forum so I should have $2,286 by the end of the day

Ok, GIVE ME money, or I might have to rob a bank or something

You need to be more intimidating – something along the lines of "This is a very nice website you have here Bill – be a pity if something were to happen to it" If you can follow this up with a massive surprise increase in instances of The Bug, so much the better.

It also helps if you are wearing a badly-fitted suit, and you have a large partner along with you who accidentally knocks over pottery in Bill's house as you talk, to emphasize the point.

Extra points also if you wave around an aromatic cigarette or cigar during the conversation.

BigLee16 Nov 2009 9:49 a.m. PST

Alternatively you could threaten to pepper every thread on the message boards with random Zardoz pictures (shudder).

You come to us on the day of our… on the day after the day after John passed a bar mitzvah on the way to work, and ask us to do this…

Wait, what was it again?

"stand and deliver, your money or your life"

I ignore ALL muggers who don't have the courtesy to use the correct ettiquette.

Gunfreak16 Nov 2009 10:23 a.m. PST

I got the nukes for $1 USD a piece on the russian black market,

I'm not demanding guy I only want money for my figs.

The nukes are set on random detonator, I only press a button and a computer decides which of the 40 nukes go off

Do you have a Mini Gunfreak????? Or a white cat???

I do have a mini me, and a big fat brown dachshund that sits on my lap, she is actualy the evil brains behind the operation, a more ruthless dog there is not.

Cyrus the Great16 Nov 2009 11:59 a.m. PST

Instead of intimidation, you might want to try the "sense of entitlement" ploy! evil grin

I'm trying to get paypal to use my mastercard as I have no money on my visa, but even tho I have put my master card as my primary card, I can't pay with it

Gunfreak…you need to go to Bongolesia you learn how to get money from rubes…errr…I mean "contributions from donors" successfully!

wink

Rudysnelson16 Nov 2009 12:24 p.m. PST

I only support 15mm gaming. I do not wstock 40mm and very little 25mm (skirmish). If you want money for 40mm apply for an Obama stimulus grant. LOL!

Inquisitor Thaken16 Nov 2009 12:29 p.m. PST

BigLee "Alternatively you could threaten to pepper every thread on the message boards with random Zardoz pictures (shudder)."

And that would be different than every other day on TMP, how?

Ok, give me $2,286 for 15mm, and I "promise" to only use them on 15mm

Gunfreak,

I forwarded your request to the Liberian Lottery Commission.

You should have all the money you will ever need soon.

No need to thank me, I was pleased to help.

If you had only asked nicely, I may have bought them myself and had them shipped to you. Too late now.

Gunfreak16 Nov 2009 1:04 p.m. PST

That was me asking nicely, if I asked the normal way it would have involded threats of serious bodely harm, especaly to bottom, we are talking spiked baseball bats, and no lube

shelldrake16 Nov 2009 2:06 p.m. PST

Well, seeing as this thread is about money I might as well make my own demands: Give me $3,000 so I can take a trip to Japan or I will post my photo on the internet! (insert dramatic music)

Personal logo M1Fanboy Supporting Member of TMP16 Nov 2009 2:47 p.m. PST

Ok, that's it…enough of you amateurs!

GIVE ME MONEY!!!

Or I'll start singing selected Rodgers and Hammerstein tunes…

Andrew, don't worry, just drill into your kids the definition of grandchildren: vengeance!

Hey GF, go ahead and push the button. I dare you. Can we pick which city goes first?

SECURITY MINISTER CRITTER16 Nov 2009 7:08 p.m. PST

involved threats of serious Bodely harm,

Hey, I'm all for hurting Mr. Scott. 8-)

Andrew, I have 2 daughters (and a wife). I have been broke for over 20 years now.

Hank: By the way, Homer, what's your least favorite country: Italy or
France?
Homer: France.

If y'all are throwing money around, I'll take a share.

Is there a cash for clunkers miniature program? You could trade a poorly performing unit for a shiny new one.
