The sad thing is that if we held a poll on who likes/doesn't like the old worker site, the numbers probably wouldn't be that much better either. I am just grateful to all of the hard working turkers out there who have created scripts that actually bring functionality to these sites. Real change only seems to happen from the bottom up these days.

Probably true, but if you had a poll about which you prefer it'd probably skew overwhelmingly in favor of the old site. It has a lot of issues, but the new one seems like a step back with no real improvements for the things we lose (like being able to view AA time).

Is there anything that's actually better?

Um, what about the poll with me that I almost won before they added "Buffalo Wings" in the middle of it?

You say that like buffalo wings stole your votes rather than buffalo wings just making people want to die less

Buffalo wings kinda make me want to die, so I don't think that was the case at all. Really, buffalo wings and death are just two sides of the same coin.

That's definitely an interesting way of looking at it.

To be honest I'm not a huge fan of wings myself

after trying it several times... i can't think of anything that is better compared to the old site

I think I am going to breath life into an old gaming rig to use for my primary "twurking" (my step son calls it that so idk) rig. Would be so much better than the core2duo I use now, but the power and noise. On the plus side I could run many virtual machines.

btw - I run ubuntu so I can use a low spec machine no problem - but no inquisit, I also do not have flash installed.

I'd sign up to slickdeals and set an alert for good deals on shoes. I've picked up 3 news pairs over the last few months for 15-30 bucks each for a couple pairs of Adidas and a pair of Pumas

I been with slickdeals since 7/2009 (can't believe I've had an account there for that long). I remember the good ole days of posting to the SB Task thread, lol. Anyways, yeah, I need to look on there for a deal because only place in Vancouver, WA that I know of that sells somewhat decent shoes is JC Penny. I just worry that I'll have to return the shoes a 100 times cause they won't fit.

I just remember thinking "give me liberty or give me death"
and liberty wasn't an option, so .. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
