what else is new with the cba#acd?
I might repeat this later, but what's with the Fark thing under the Xixax logo? Fark is not the best place to recruit, I thought the new movement was against clique-ness.
Huh? I LOVE Fark (http://fark.com)!
I bought a classified ad on Fark today. It'll run for a week.
Just cross-pollination... Not sure about the whole clique thing.
After 1/2 day, we've had 8 click throughs and 0 signups. Not the best numbers, but who knows.

WooHOO!!!
Now we officially exist! (http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=%22xixax%2E%2Bcom%22)
I think we need to readjust the marketing scheme to increase the ammount of non PTA boarders.
I'm game.
I think the most effective thing we can do with no budget is for people to post plugs on the other boards they frequent.
Or maybe get plugs on movie news/DVD websites, I know some of you have connections.
Here's the problem, though... let's face it, the only reason that so many people found the first message board is because it was a Paul Thomas Anderson message board. I don't see how promoting through director-specific sites like c & c could not be effective, but how realistic is it that we'll show up on search engines if we're not specific? And how specific would we need to be?
Sure. The Xixax awards have already gotten us some press on Greg's board, and we've seen several new users from it.
Likewise, if directors are honored with a nomination or an award, maybe they will post that news as well.
My only problem is that I'm not a member of any of these board. We need something like a little "press release" that we can e-mail to the keepers of these director's web sites.
How do you go about getting on IMDB where you click a movie and you see where it has been nominated...?
Quote from: Duck SauceHow do you go about getting on IMDB where you click a movie and you see where it has been nominated...?
Sphinx posted some really friggin' complicated thing a while ago, we should look into that...
I came because of another....
but that's only a best case scenario
This place is great.
Greg at ptanderson's mention in NEWS drove me here
I clicked the ad on //www.theuncool.com (A Cameron Crowe site)
This is a really great place, I want to reply to almost every thread I see, but that would get annoying and plus, that's a lot of typing...I feel so overwhelmed
Welcome, sloth!
We just started running the ads on TheUncool.com and PTAnderson.com and are already seeing a lot of new faces.
Have fun!

That hasn't stopped some.
I found out by Greg's site (in news).
i came to this site because i can't find enough people to have good film conversation with....i now feel like my taste in movies is not unique, and boring...i'm going to find a more shallow, "mainstream" message board. :?
second official use of a smily

Before I got on the PTA board I thought I was pretty well versed in movies, especially more obscure ones. But really, I was only seeing the Requiem For A Dreams, and Magnolias... ect. Boards are great
Don't go away upset, Moonshiner!
Bonanzataz has TERRIBLE taste in films and we all know it, but we love him anyway!
:P
(Xixax noogies Taz)
Xixax, I don't think you understand my obsession with bad films. Key word, my man. CAMP!
please redirect me to some of bonanzataz's bad picks...
I found this place by accident, i clicked on a banner somewhere, don't remember where though. I think this place is awsome, it's the first board i've been on, which is cool because you guys don't talk about shitty movies.
Quote from: Jr. Stonephreewhich is cool because you guys don't talk about shitty movies.
We do, just not favorably.
I found this board thru the banner ad in www.cameroncroweonline.com , hence me being a Cameron Crowe fanboy 8) :lol: :P
clicked through from ptanderson.com: http://www.ptanderson.com/latestnews/main.htm
whoops just posted this answer in the other thread. snaporaz told me about this forum. it's great!
I few months back someone posted this board on the imdb message board. I looked it over and forgot about it.
Then, a week ago, someone posted about the PDL DVD on The Home Theater Forum, and mentioned this site. I checked it out again and joined this time. :(

i was arrested for treason-- the judge gave me 100 hours of xixax and 1 year probation.
Hi there. New here. Saw this place mentioned either at an IMDB forum, or from the ptanderson.com page - I think it was the latter, actually, because I was looking for info on PTA's new projects, and came across the link to the Couch thread. So yeah, these forums are a breath of fresh air. So great to find intelligent people who enjoy films and filmmaking as much as I do. :)

I like that name.
I often saw Cyclists in my picnic days but now they all seem to have been Replaced by all of you. Why is Xixax? We think it is Hilarious.
Hats Off To You, Hugh
Hmm.
I found this place.
How?
Well, you see
One Day
In 1975
Our regular announcer,
Johnny Olson
Went down with a case of the sneezes
And Bern Bennett subbed in
for one week
and one week only
on the friday, that was to be his last day
he said to me:
will it all not be great gene?
and i said: what is that bern
he said: in 28 some odd years many of these cats will sit and pray to their think boxes, nattering over the moving pictures?
and i looked at him, sort of cross:
'think boxes, you say?'
'yes, gene, think boxes...they will be run by horrible people and talk to you while you sleep'
well, i had poor ol' bern commited.
and that was the last time i drank ginger ale before a taping of the show.
"charles nelson reilly, what is this you speak of"
"i speak of nothing, other than the retched filth of a zebra who not only conquered the lion, but also claimed to be bi-racial on his census form"
Followed somebody here.
Don't think he knows it yet.
I went to check out www.seduceanddestroy.com after seeing Magnolia a month ago and it took me to this site.
Makes sense.
Hi, I'm new here. I found the Xixax banner on ptanderson.com and the word that made me click on was "cinephiles". Don't know why... Looks like Roland Barthes' punctum I guess.
clicked the add on ptanderson.com it was just that simple.
Keep Well,
Dan
I typed www.seduceanddestory.com in and it brought me here:)

I really wish www.sparklemotion.com came here.... :cry:
I thought about going to www.seduceanddestroy.com after seeing Magnolia again, but I was already posting here...which made me love the site even more.
I find that www.sexycoeds.com dosen't redirect me to here, what's the deal with that?

Haha...good one :-D
..Never got around to answering yet..
the old board e-mail notification is what brought me here..
I'm either here from The Home Theater Forum or a site promoting pics of female anal bukakke.....forgot which one :idea:
The Home Theater Forum does promote female anal bukkake.
I don't remember what I searched but the first thread I openend is "How To Steal DVDs" or something of the like :oops:

Hey, Walrus KooKooajajaboob, great animation avatar! Good job
I love The Swedish Chef, with him and my powers combined, the annual XIXAX barbecue will be a huge success.
Thanks, and I look forward to those BBQ's.
