Random NYSkiBlog Stuff That You Might Not Care About

Yeah, I’ll revisit that. All day long.

I’m still offended that you thought I was stuffing the box. I guess you really don’t want subscribers, either that or my kids aren’t as deserving of the chance of winning a pair of skis as anyone else?

Wether it was me, or one of my kids, who ski, it would have been nice to have the same chance as anyone else to not have to buy another pair. I assume anyone here can surmise that I don’t have a problem buying myself new equipment. I don’t need to stuff your stupid box.

Sheesh. I’ll never forget it, either....and I don’t appreciate what I’m perceiving as attitude.

Believe whatever you want. So much for putting up a trip report....

How many times did you and your kids vote?

Once for each of us. I asked if they were interested. They said sure. I was hoping to get them to stop making fun of my NYSB habit, maybe get involved themselves. You know, encourage new users. So much for that. If anything, I need to cut back.

That's seems fair. Not buying you were trying to drive traffic.
 
My son was headed off to Plattsburgh, figured he could legit benefit from following the blog, for conditions at least.

Did I think my daughter and younger son would really get involved? Not really. However, isn’t that the point of the weenie (give away).....encourage people to subscribe, then hope to have some percentage stick and get involved? Ask Harvey, I bet the percentage of people who subscribed for the giveaway and since have used the blog/been active isn’t all that high.

I don’t really care, I unsubscribed us all at the time, didn’t want Harvey’s skis after he accused me of stuffing the ballot box. It’s just ironic that Harvey wants subscribers, but he chased subscribers off. That’s the only reason I mentioned it.

Harvey, this forum is a godsend. It has become the first or second page I hit in the morning, after checking my local weather. I love the off-topic pages and to see what ScottySkis has had for lunch! I just realized that there is a weather page.

Thanks wp and cerv.

JT and I are working from different versions of the facts, so I'm not willing to invest in arguing.

It's something that pissed me off and I hadnt thought about it in a long time.
 
In our directory of NY Ski Areas:

nyskiblog.com

New York Ski Areas and Resorts

More lift-served ski areas than any other state.
nyskiblog.com nyskiblog.com

We have these sections that made sense to me when I did it. I knew it wasn't perfect:

Adirondacks
Catskills
Tug Hill
Downstate NY
Central NY
Western NY

Brownski and I have duked it out over how to organize the sections and also over WHERE to put Catamount. He says putting Cat Downstate ain't right. We could change Downstate to Hudson Valley and maybe include Maple.

IMO The rest of the sections don't change (Adk Cats Tug Central and Western) except as possibly discussed above.

Anyway. What do you think about Catamount. Do they go in the Catskills? Other ideas, create a Capital District or rename Downstate, to HV.
