News / Eighth Annual Dirty East Contest At The Flow

« on: October 14, 2008, 10:53:38 PM »

Not too terribly many details about this contest just yet.  In years past we've had some pretty big names show up and throw down some Dew Tour sized maneuvers.  The Knights Inn down the street usually proves to be an entertaining time for those not nearly as interested in riding their stunt machines.  I'll post more info as it is provided.

Bumping
-Bumping your own thread, will get your thread deleted.

-Bumping somone elses, will get you a warning, at the very least. Possibly more.

-Using stupid tricks to get your thread bumped will not be tolerated.

-If your thread falls, TOUGH. It is because no one else is interested in seeing it.  So KNOCK IT OFF.

Image Size
-I'm tired of clicking on threads that have images that take up the entire screen and require scrolling to see the entire frame.  If you are going to post a picture resize it to a reasonable size or I will delete the thread.

-I don't want to hear anyone bitching about this because with the advent and popularity of Photoshop and similar programs this is not a difficult task to accomplish.

Flags/Smileys/Etc attached to initial thread
-I know that the site offers all sorts of fun little icons for you to use when you post a thread to draw attention to yourself.  Now here is the problem.  Not a single one of you deserves to have your thread looked at over someone else's thread.  Do not use these little icons to draw attention to yourself.  Only a few people have been doing this and I've heard complaints about it from a few other posters.  I have been going through deleting the icons as I see them but I've grown tired of doing so and will just delete your thread from here on out.  What that means for you is that if you want people to actually see what you are posting leave those icons off.

-I am only saying this for the person that is creating the thread becuase the icon they attach is visible within the actual forum.  If you're replying I could care less if you use those icons becuase it doesn't draw extra attention to the thread.

News / Contest @ The Flow!!!

« on: November 01, 2005, 10:46:42 AM »

That's right boys and girls.  It has come to be the time of the year where The Flow holds their annual Dirty East contest.  We're less than a week away from the fifth installment of this epic display of bicycle stuntery.

The contest is running two days.  That's right, two.  Not just one.  The way it should be.  More fun for everyone.  Now I know all you greedy little bastards are sitting out there drooling over the thought of coming to one of the best skateparks in the world but you're a bit confused becuase you don't know exactly what date this shindig is occuring.  Consider me your savior becuase I'm about to tell you that important bit of information...

Saturday, November 5th: Amateur Competition
Sunday, November 6th: Pro Competition

So there you go.  You know what day the contest is occuring.  Now all you're going to have to do is pack all your little friends into that one kid's mom's mini-van and roadtrip your sorry asses out here to Columbus from where ever the hell it is that you live.

Now I know you've all got erections and you can't wait for this weekend knowing that this may be your last chance to be at a contest at The Flow.  But I've got even more good news for you.  Not only will you have the chance to ride The Flow but you'll be more than welcome to session the public parks around the Columbus area.  Of course you're probably wondering, "Nobody, just how many public parks are there in Columbus?"  And of course I'm going to give you the answer, it's not just one.  It's not even two... or three... or four... or even five.  Oh no.  There are at least ten public parks in the Columbus area.  I'm tempted to say that the exact number is thirteen but I just might be wrong.

All you older kids, the eighteen and up crowd... I've got some exciting news for you.  Very exciting.  Directly next door to The Flow is the Sundance Saloon.  Sounds cheesy eh?  It sure does.  But that's the beauty in it.  The Sundance Saloon is a hip-hop/R&B/country club complete with a mechanical bull and multiple dance rooms.  Now if that isnt' good enough how excited would you be to know that there are two separate strip clubs within walking distance of the skatepark... we're talking merely on the other side of the parking lot.  How exciting is that?

So now that you know everything that you're going to be missing out on if you don't make it out here I hope to see every last one of you at the contest this weekend.  Of course when I say I hope to see you I mean I only hope to see you... if any of you come up to me I'll just pretend that I don't know what you're talking about... unless you know the secret password.  Then you'll be granted a siq beej.
