will the wright state game be on TV? it would be great if they hand the wildcats a big, red L. also, this is in continuation of Jason's post...if we register a redirectional domain (i.e. if you type in www.flamesboard.com, for example, then it will redirect you to uicflames.proboards28.com so people wont have to remember this address), it can be very inexpensive to do so... for example, we can get www.uichoops.com for $7.49 per year, so its pretty cheap... i'd be willing to chip in to that. the only problem is, you have to pay for the 10 years simultaneously, so it costs $74.90 to reserve the name for the next 10 years... any thoughts?

I like to consider myself one of the "regular postrers" I would chip in.

I would also chip in.....and I would vote for uichoops.com over flamesboard.com. Actually, the site could become kind of like a whoosh!...maybe a merger is in order.....and then it could have a link to this board or whatever other board we use As for the Raiders, that was a nice win at Tulsa....would we have been able to win that one? uicMayur, what do you think of this board....do you like the other new one better?

i like this board a lot better. i think we should decide between this board (proboards) and our original one.
i think (with the approval of Jason T) we should just make the official move here.
Let our good friend Mike Pankow over at Whoosh! know and ask him to update the address for the UIC board.
I hope we don't lose any of our regulars from this move...

I have to agree. I like this board alot and I think that we should make this the official board. It seems tha t the majority of people believe this. I don't want to be negative or anthing, but right now it seems both are being used. Would it help this one if we got rid of the old one all together so everyone would come here?

Well, I didn't even e-mail Mike at Whoosh! but his "links" page has been updated to inlude both the original board and this new board.
I think eventually, one board or the other must be chosen....there's just no point in splitting up the few fans that already post. Who knows when that decision will be made. I really would like proboards to prove that they are a reliable host (i.e., server not crashing often and what not). It didn't help that that happened on the day after we signed up for the board, but the good news is that it hasn't happened any other time.
There are tons of people who have not registered for this site yet.

I e-mailed Pankow about the new board the other day. With utmost respect for Jason T, knowing he put in a lot of work in maintaining the original board, I think I'm going to be using this one.
Also, I'm game for helping put in for the 74.90 amount for the uichoops.com domain. Where do I send my amount. And speaking of amount how many will be sending in what amount? Do we just need 10 of us to send in 7.49 or 5 to send in 14.98? What's the breakdown?
