You know those ads with the games where you get "a free cell phone ring tone" or whatever if you win? I've been resisting the urge for a long time until one day I gave up. I played tic tac toe and then I lost on purpose. And it said I won.
I don't know what happens after you click to "get your prize" though. So what happens after that? Uhh..crap. I thought it was in the lounge. Sorry :P |

i love playing those games...haha
there's this one game where you race against this man to see who can wheeling in a fish the fastest.  i play it, but since i use mozilla fox, it blocks up all the pop up ads that usually come out after you win.

They are fun. I remember there was this one with Arnold Swachzenhshf and George Bush in a race against each other.
After it you click on get your prize mostly it tells you to give them your info like email adress and credit card #. |

The ones with sounds, like the boxing one, are REALLY annoying. Except right now I pretty much keep my speakers off right now..
Yeah, I don't play those but I was WAY click happy back in 7th grade when I first started using the internet.. Our poor computer..

Games like those are awesome, 'cpecially when im bored. I don't know what happens afterwards cause i have a pop up blocker, but I think you gotta sign up like with your address, email and whatever and then you gota participate in some stuff. I'm not sure though.

I never play those things, but sometimes I feel like, "Damn! I just missed my chance to win a free Ipod!!!"
And then I feel stupid because I know that it's just a scam.

QUOTE(nyctophiliac @ Jul 19 2006, 8:36 PM)  I've never seen a tic tac toe one...usually all I get is "shoot the bunny" or the fart button x] Crap the fart button (no pun intended) is very tempting. But when I read "you know you want to" it makes me not want to click it because it's like it's challenging me. :P |
