* IMPORTANT * NBA Internext Pool Round 2 Picks
IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT ABOUT THE NBA POOL
The NBA has decided to schedule games for Round 2 before all the series in Round 1 are complete. This throws a monkey wrench into our NBA Internext Pool because we need picks for Round 2 before it starts. So, anyone with 4 or more correct picks as of right now will need to send in their picks for these Round 2 series by Sunday at 3:00 PM EDT:
Los Angeles vs San Antonio
New Jersey vs Detroit
The following people have 4 or more correct picks for Round 1:
adamneve
AdultLegal-Jim
Cash
dareutwo
donger
Dr Bizzaro
dunkin
EclectiXXX
esham
Extreme Nate
Fonz
gmoney
KatVixen
Linkster
MatrixFan
mikeyddddd
Ramster
Rictor
ritchie
srcharp
Tart
Thiago Dickman
TijuanaPat
Torn
Tuna
vicki
Yell
Your picks for those 2 games MUST be sent to me via the Private Message system by 3:0 PM EDT Sunday - NO EXCEPTIONS!
Some of these picks will be a "just incase" scenario - picking these 2 Round 2 series does NOT mean that you are officially in Round 2 - only those that have the most correct picks from Round 1 will be officially moved to Round 2 - but since we do not know who will be there before all the series in Round 1 are complete, everyone on the above list MUST submit picks for those 2 games.
Hopefully this post is clear, but if you have any question, please post them here.

Bad, Nasty Counters
With the recent sale of a very popular counter and the turn of events that have followed, I have seen people talking about moving to a different counter.
I have been told in confidence by a large counter owner that they have been doing the same thing with their counter but with much more stealth. And, they have been doing it for a couple of years.
Any TGP or Link List owner knows, the least amount of traffic they receive is from the small recip banners placed on sites and pages. So, how do counters survive without getting a lot of traffic from their counters themselves? I understand that there is money advertising banners in the webmaster area but, is that really enough for them to survive?
My opinion is this...
Trust no free counter. They not only have access to all of your webmasters but also all surfers that visit your site or page. Almost all counter programmers have the ability to write something within their code that you and your customers will not want on their machines. Not all of them do it but, at any time, they can.
Do yourself a favor. Get some usable server stats from your logs and leave the 3rd party counters alone. Not only is there always a chance that some viscous code may be installed but it is also a leak on your our pages that you can do without. Server stats are more accurate and tell you more information than you will ever get from 3rd. party counters.
Have a Good Day
