I would love to see this thing bouncing on a low of .25 while getting legs for a real run!
Akamai cashing the data on the edge of the internet works wonders. It absolutely says something about the company that they are relying on the likes of Akamai ( just see who Akamai's clients are mlb.com, google, yahoo all the bandwidth intensive clients use this to get thier content delievered super fast. Lets not forget who IBM is and who's leveraging their technology as well GAMEFLIX ...
Another good point for those who are in fear of a pump & dump scame ( what pump & dump scam ) signed contracts for commericals on primetime..
If you can't see the potential or are afraid of the risk I can assure you its a losing proposition if you DONT buy not if you do...
Someday we shall see $10....Who knows when but I'm here for the long term...

Site is basically the same visually, but boy it is a huge step in speed. These guys know how to manage a company. Appearance can be upgraded down the line, but right now they are focusing on customer satisfaction and generating revenue. I couldn't agree with this post more. JMHO
P.S. -- It's funny how so many new posters come on deck on the board in the midst of huge developments. Sweet irony, I believe ya call it. DD people ... do it!

Gmoney, are you sure the new backend is up? From my location and a few others it still apears to be hosted on peer1 and not Akamai.net like most other clients of theirs. I could be wrong though.. maybe your dns server has propagated faster than others.

They are definately using peer1 for their web hosting.
I actually received a pop-up stating that the new site will launch on Wednesday afternoon?

New site goes live at 6am est. They said they wanted it to go live when all the staff was there just in case. Because of the high traffic to see the new site. This was from email by the way.

From what I see it means that it is not from my end. But like the other guy said the DNS might not have propagated out to my ISP yet.
If they moved to akamai, then a trace route should be going through their (akamai's)servers somewhere. Perhaps tomorrow it will all be done. HOPEFULLY.

Posted from another board, Don't know if its true but here it is:
e-mail from GameznFlix IT - The website has been switched over - give it time and be PATIENT. This is a e-commerce website that is in the trasition mode now that can come up at any time - read the e-mail and sit back as it's on it's way. You should be very happy for a company that has soooooo much to offer.
e-Mail form Ken Below
Yes, the process has started as it works its way through the WWW. It could be up anytime. It went as scheduled. Ken

hmmm, is anyone else having problems getting to the site. Everytime I try to go to it, it comes up and says the site can't be found.

More then likely are switching servers check back in a little bit and it should be up. It takes a while to fully propagate when changing the DNS.

Same here, must have something to do with new site.

That is what I was thinking too but wanted to make sure it wasn't just me. Looks like we should have a new site soon

the site seems very fast which is impressive considering it is probably getting pounded right now with everyone checking it out.

Wow, this new site is very very buggy. I hope they get all of this fixed soon. It seams that nothing is functional. It boggles my mind as to why they didn't get all this done before the airing of their commercials. I bet they lost close to 50% of the signups they already got.
Ive been waiting 10 days for movies now and still havn't got them.

I heard you guys advertised on Howard Stern again this morning. I live in San Diego, where Howard was kicked off the air, but when I travel up to L.A. once a week for work I get to listen to him. Both this week and last I have heard GZFX mentioned. Last week it was when Ben Curtis was the guest, and today it was an actual commercial. For anyone not aware of how important this is, Howard Stern fans are extremly loyal to him and anyone or company that supports him. With all the grief he is getting from the FCC and Washington, his listeners will support him however they can. What this translates to----> With over 14 million regular listeners everyday, people will subscribe based on Howard Stern alone. Although I don't plan on actually using the service, I will subcribe just to support an advertisor who supports Howard. Many other of his listeners will do the same. Once I clear up some funds, hopefully next week, I will be buying this stock as a long term investment, and I don't usually buy long term. I am a daytrader. Good luck everyone!! Go Howard and GZFX!!!

On a side note, I am dissapointed with the website. I hope they fix it before all the Stern fans flood it.

Do you honestly think your negativity is going to shake the strong hands here ?
I have some advice for you, if the site isn't meeting your expectation nor the company then be gone you flea.
Lets go back in time when Yahoo, Google or any other ecommerce site first entered the market. Do you honestly think it was smooth sailing for any of those companies getting the bugs out and have their infrastructure running efficently from day one ?
No it's called trials and tribulations ! So small minded and so ignorant its amazing someone like you even knows what the potential is here....
Another poster, BE GONE you slug !

They have to come in here and bash to try to keep it down. But you know what I find is funny, I went to one of the biggest boards and checked out the NetFlix board. Do you know what I found? GZFX. GZFX is all they are posting about. The only time they even mention Netflix is the GZFX bashers saying NetFlix is faster, lol. Thats it. To me it looks like they are worried. Don't know why, this field is wide open and GZFX has plenty of room. They know that, but they are still afraid.

Go GZFX, make me some more money.

I'm loving this! Yes we're being talked about the very people that fear us most. That is validation. "FOR BOTH COMPANIES!" Get a grip Netflix, this will only hurt for a minute & help you long term.

Not sure if we are using the other thread yet so I'll post this here as well...
Did anyone notice this?
This is a quote off the first page that comes up... Welcome to the new GameznFlix web site.

This is a qote from the FAQ page...

They are stating 3 different "free trial" durations.

I checked out the Netflix board and man are they grasping at straws.
This only makes me want to add to my position and for once in my trading career I'm holding this one for years to come... My only concern is where do I pull the trigger ? At 5$ a share ? 15$ ? or $30 ?
Everyone is forgetting about a possible takeover from a brick and click that would like to have an established ecommerce site to compete with the likes of Netflix.
Has anyone thought of a blockbuster, barnes & noble, WalMart, Amazon who may swoop in and buy them out ?
Its all good people lets buy up as much as we can !
