Well no matter what happens tomorrow, I am not worried. This thing is going soon no matter what. I feel a new carrier in the air. Is it the rumor? Who really knows. But if you look back, rumors seem to be more true then we would like to think. Don't know if it a ploy to move us or what. If the buyback is over and they want to see the shares rise but are not allowed to release yet. A rumor may be a way to go. It is causing excitement anyway. No matter what is true.

Matt!
Sub numbers or like Ric just said, new carrier. It's already to run on it's own but we just might get a confirmation that the Buyback is complete & that could well take us through a billion share trading day.
All I know is we will see a couple of days where volume does multiple billions.

Won't it be fun!!!
Here TV, Pink & LOGO, that's if LOGO ever gets off the ground, will have to pay us for rights to re-broadcast content!
Redstone better call Frank if he really wants any of that $6000,000,000,000.oo!
Frank has a documented history of building these media companies & selling them. ...................................................................

Terry!
It's possible for this to see a dollar based on a $600 Billion Dollar target. However I have a sinking feeling that I may never see a dollar only because Frank admits to & has a documented history of developing media companies & selling them. Hope we go through a dollar first but he will sell at some point & if I had to guess & put a cash value to him selling, I would take a shot in the dark & say about .38 only because anything more than that would mean he's not selling for three or more years. I believe he sells sometime within 2 & 1/2 years. We could see a buck by then but i don't think so. Just my very humble opinion this morning & subject to change after some sleep!
I do know this! Frank will sell at some point & it will be a whole lot more than it's worth today.

Looked up Gay Games 2006 on internet. Check out the main website where they feature an article (dated Sept. 2004) "QBID is affiliated with RCN and OTHER PROVIDERS"
I'm pretty sure that they already know who our next providers are as that would have been disclosed for contract purposes. Perhaps final signing of this contract had something to do with making sure the other provider(s) had been signed.

That makes prfect sense. I think your on to something. Maybe those rumors aren't so far fetched even if they're not exactly accurate they are pointed in the right direction. We'll soon see!
I've got more time then anything.This is fun way to spend some of it. It's just a matter of time now.$$$

I was thinking about something. The actual completion of the contract is nothing. We're focusing on that instead of the message behind it.
The 2006 GayGames would not sign with a Network who's only on with RCN but would sign with a network that can deliver in all markets and more then 30 countries.
So this almost GAURANTEE's we have another carrier! PPS usually rises before word is out and I dought it is rising because of the Gay Games final contract, it's rising because WE HAVE ANOTHER CARRIER.
Buckle Up. It's all a strategy on Franks part. I would wait for the PPS to be at .02 to mention the carrier, maybe .03. Then we can fly to .10

If you think about what the terms of contract probably are, they wouldn't sign with a network that can only offer limited coverage.

i see after all the drinking last night you folks had the same idea hit ya. i'm guessing but frank may have had to prove he had more carriers before they would finalize. from the first pr about the games & the cc it seemed the money part was agreed on, thus why wait to finalize the contract. frank did say by the end of dec. we'd be in 35% of the country & RCN doesn't cover that much area. its early, still finishing first cup of coffee but wasn't end of jan. to be 55% of the country??

Mornin' all........

final signed contract in hand. loi is 1 thing, but contract quite another. big. means that deep pockets like sumner redstone's viacom (logo), euro pinkTV, or others go through us--just like frank said in the pr announcing signing of loi. think they went with us because the q is "for the gay community, BY the gay community"--logo will be a gay network produced by the straight people.
sets up the future nicely. they'll be promo-ing the hell outta this all next year--enticing new subs. this is a whole new MEDIA venue--not just gay stuff. traditional media will have to pay more than just lip service to this whole enterprise, and the q. could be the beginning of a broadcasting icon (qtn). baseball--nbc game of the week, abc monday night football, qtn gay olympics provider to the masses 2006, 2010 and beyond.
the thrill of victory, and the agony of defeat...all on our own little network....
