I am thinking more in terms of good old BKMP show me that you can dip to a .0002-3's. I off loaded all my stocks at .001 and will be glad to join in again at those levels....for those who are here for a long term here is a piece of advice...take it for what its worth...BKMP is a company with a lot of fan fare and very little material..they hardly own anything...20% for the Fight network is nothing...compared to the number of shares they have floating...my best guess for this share is a .005 level at the max..and that too if the Fight network is able to get in the US market really quick..I mean not just via satalite but Comcast or Time Warner...if that is the max this share can do in that case..its always best to run for the small profits..of which there are many...all the best..to all of you...

Sorry to keep talking AMSN on this thread but while I wait for BKMP to move I figure some of the old timers might be interested in this stuff. Found something on pinksheets (not good) which may account for the large volume.

Could be people unloading because of this. Also AMSN is just comming down from a run that took it close to .10 PPS.
Alright, I'll stop with AMSN now and stay true to the thread.
I was hoping we were starting to see the begining of a subtle accumulation increase in pps. It may still happen but the dips down to 4 seem to take no time at all. Thankfully they are few and I would just guess MM's rather than individuals are the ones getting lucky there. Probably stop limits that MM's are fleecing out.
So, we stay at 5 today. I guess that's ok. I'd be real surprised if Warcraft gets his 3's though. Too many shares were traded at a higher pps than that on this last run. Holders won't want to sell that cheap.
GLTA! Off to turn over some rocks and get a little grub.
The Bigfoot
Hmmm. 5K trade at 5. MM's need shares? Could be an interesting EOD.

MM's fooled people in to thinking the PPS was rising, then they took it back down. It is sad that BKMP is back down to .0004 already.

This spike was purely artificial. Investor hype because of the coming soon flags on TFN's website, thats all. MM's saw the increased activity on the boards over the weekend (if you think they're not watching we need to send an "I'm with Stupid" T-shirt to your best freind or spouse) not to mention the added buying pressure the following Monday. We have no reason to be down on this, at all. If you sold on the up and made some bank, good for you. If you bought high hoping this was the run just wait a bit, it will come. When the bashers show up, give it a while, they were here this weekend and today a bit. Patience is the key to making money. My two cents, keep the change

They did hook a brother up though. I have 2 account (Ameritrade and Choicetrade) so what I do is flip 1 account at a time (I try to do it every day) rotating accounts. Anyway the MMs let me sell at the ask today * 0.0006. Now if I can only buy it at 0.0004.
The strange thing is my last few times I have bought and sold, my trades have not appeared on the L2s. Hmmmm.

Blackout Media Corp. Issues Letter to Shareholders
E-mail | Print | | Disable live quotes Last Update: 9:15 AM ET Jun 6, 2006
TORONTO, Jun 06, 2006 (MARKET WIRE via COMTEX) -- Blackout Media Corp. (PINKSHEETS: BKMP) announced today that it has released a Letter to Shareholders from President Sandy Winick. The text of the letter appears below. Dear Shareholders: Before discussing the various areas under The Fight Network, I would like to address the issue surrounding the untimely passing of Ryan Bennett. It is a very tragic event that occurred last Wednesday night and we are all very deeply saddened and scared by what had occurred. But we are also very mindful that we must carry on and we will. We will miss Ryan and he left us with big shoes that must be filled and they will be filled. It is everyone's job at The Fight Network to ensure that the company proceeds and succeeds and everybody at the company is committed to those goals. I hope that all the shareholders that supported us prior to this most tragic event will support us now more then ever. We are a strong and focused group and together we will be stronger and more driven by this. Blackout Media's main asset is its 20% interest in The Fight Network and all its various brand extensions through Blackout Communications Inc. It has been our goal from day one to build The Fight Network into a globally recognized brand that combatant sports fans will come to identify as "the Source" for fight sports events and entertainment. With that being said a number of initiatives have been implemented to achieve that long-term goal. Here are a few of the highlights: Television To date we have launched our services on most of the major carriers in Canada and a number of the smaller carriers. We anticipate by the end of 2006 that the remaining carriers will add TFN to their line-ups. In addition we have hired Trajectory Sports of New York to assist in getting us launched in the United States; the people from Trajectory are working very hard and we feel that it is only a matter of time before we lock down our first of many U.S. carriage deals. As well, we have had enquiries from several other countries around the world (Mexico, Panama, Australia, England, Ireland) which we are pursuing with the same conviction as North America. It is our goal to provide viewers with the best possible programs and experience which is why we have further expanded our news coverage and presence at many of the top Pay Per View (PPV) fight events across North America (UFC Ultimate Fighting Championships, Showtime Boxing, and HBO Boxing) and Internationally (Pride Fighting Championships and K-1) in order to deliver in-depth pre-fight coverage of the weigh-ins and press conferences followed by post-fight coverage with interviews and wrap-ups done by our own dedicated news staff and unrivaled by any other sports network in the marketplace today. Nielsen Media Research In just seven (7) short months The Fight Network according to the Nielsen rankings for Digital Networks (Feb 27th to Mar 26, 2006) was the number one (1) Sports Specialty channel in Canada and was also listed as the twelfth (12) most popular specialty digital channel in Canada for that same period. *It should also be noted at the time of the rankings that The Fight Network was still not available on all systems across Canada. Fight Network Radio Fight Network has syndicated across Canada our weekly LIVE talk radio show "Live Audio Wrestling" which covers the behind the scene news and information for pro wrestling and mixed martial arts. The current ratings for the show for males 18-34 was 17.8 and for males 25-49 was an 18.7, making the show number one (1) in the Toronto market for its time slot according to BBM for March 2006. Fight Mobile We have just recently launched Fight Mobile on cell phones. This service enables fight fans to get up to the minute news, information and round by round results plus more, right to their cell phones. FIGHT MOBILE is now available in the United States on Verizon Wireless' Mobile Web 2.0 network. Other first-tier carriers are preparing to launch the U.S. service in the near future, while Canadian national and regional carriers are in discussions to add FIGHT MOBILE to their mobile content. When fully deployed, FIGHT MOBILE has the potential of reaching over 220,000,000 (Two Hundred and Twenty Million) cell phones in North America. Fight Network Online The Fight Network also has a very strong web presents with thefightnetwork.com while also owning and managing several other "Fight"-related web properties such as the highly popular liveaudiowrestling.com, mmaweekly.com, and the wrestlingobserver.com. Collectively these sites attract over 1.7MM unique visitors per month. Another area that we are working on and anticipate launching very shortly is The Fight Store -- our e-commerce offering, enabling fans to purchase all the great Fight Network gear plus unique and limited editions articles. Stock Buy-Back To date the company has purchased just over 600,000,000 shares of the planned one billion. This was done within six months of the announcement of the buy-back plan. We anticipate that company finishing the entire repurchase depending on market conditions, company's available cash flow and any other limiting factors. There are other opportunities that we are looking at, which will be released to the shareholders as they evolve. I truly believe that this will be a great year for the company and the future is looking very bright and extremely optimistic. Thank you. Sandy Winick, President - Blackout Media Corp.

"We anticipate that company finishing the entire repurchase depending on market conditions, company's available cash flow and any other limiting factors."
Not sure I like the wording on that too much. They said they were buying back the shares, what's the whole "We anticipate, depending on" wording there. And this would have to stay at these levels I would think for them to purchase the remaining shares. All in all a nice PR, just don't lkike that paragraph. "Depending on their available cashflow." If they said they were buying back these shares, shouldn't they have made sure they had the cashflow available??
Oh well....I'm prolly just reading too deep into it. Gotta read these things carefully after what IPRE pulled yesterday, lol.
