Hey folks,

I am looking for a kind soul here who would do me the honor of
providing me with a PIF of HP #1-3.

In a tale of woe some of you might find "interesting," I initially
requested these in this other request thread on the forum
10 days back. Unfortunately, the person who WAS going
to send me a copy was unable to do so a couple days later.
Instead, he asked me to contact another person for the disc
set, who forwarded me to another person, which in turn led
to Boomstick.... who suggested that I repost my request in
this thread and get myself into the current PIF lineup. (Many
thanks to Boomstick and the others for all their help -- it's
appreciated).

And there we are -- how's that for a fun week-long PM runaround,
eh? Oh well, such is life, and we move on. But I'm glad that
I now seem to be in the proper thread for requesting the
HP set. (Er, at least I hope I am...)

As I posted in the "other" thread, I did have one request regarding
the HP's, which I hope doesn't sound too strange. Here goes:
I am looking to obtain an HP set in both DL and SL formats.

Here's why...

In all honesty, I was initially interested in obtaining only the DL set
for myself and for PIF'ing. Unfortunately, thanks to some nasty curves
life has thrown at me recently, I no longer have the ability to burn DL
discs -- at least until I can afford to rebuy a new external burner.
Because of this, I would not be able to PIF any DL sets for a least a
couple of months... and that simply didn't sit right with me. I don't
know about other people, but I take my PIF obligations seriously.

Therefore, I was looking for someone -- or a couple of people -- who could
provide with me either the DL or SL HP sets, separately or both together.

This way, I could enjoy watching my own DL HP set until I am able to get
my burner upgrade. And in the meantime, this arrangement would also allow
me to immediately begin fulfilling my PIF obligations by getting some SL
sets out to folks in the need. I do already have several people who've arranged
to obtain PIF sets thorugh me once I receive them, but I will gladly provide
some additional SL sets here on the forum as well.

Because of my "unusual" DL+SL request, I plan on PIF'ing more than the
usual 3 copies/sets most people seem to be willing to provide. I think that's
only fair...

Oh, and before I forget, if you do have a DL set you could forward to me,
please make sure you CAN provide it as a "ready-to-pop-in-and-watch"
version. A couple folks I spoke with earlier DID have DL sets, yet were
unable (or... um... unwilling) to provide them to me as an actual DL DVD
set -- instead, I would have been sent 5 CD-ROMs with RAR'd files.
Normally not an issue, but with my current situation, well... that's what
I'd call a major show stopper!

Well, that's that -- I've babbled on more than enough for one posting.
And speaking of posts, I know this is only my 3rd or 4th post here,
even though I've been reading the forum just about every day for the
past few months. As such, please feel free to check out my own "PIF"
seeding stats over at myspleen under "baronbrain" if you are curious.
(No .20 or .30 ratio for me... I'm around 1.2 now, but constantly seeding
and trying to reach my goal of a 2.0!)

Many MANY thanks in advance for anyone able to help me out with
this in any way -- it's VERY much appreciated! Please PM me if you
are able to help me spread the H.P. joy around a bit more. (Just as
FYI for mailing purposes, I'm in L.A.)

Regards to all...
