    I wonder has Robbie Keane said that playing for Aston Villa was a boyhood dream yet? :p

    Moving on..........

    Diabhal refusing to fight the power. How boring has the transfer window been the poor sap on sky with his giant iPad on about the same stories as this day last week Cahill to Chelsea, Keane to Villa & Tevez to Milan. Tis a pity Liverpool aren't in for a striker then again after our judgement in transfers lately i'd rather we bought nobody to avoid dissapointment.

    Could be worse you could have to re sign a retiree to cover your midfield difficulties. oh wait we did that at UTD already :rolleyes:

    Probably the same guys that say Andy Carroll just needs games, then he gets them and my response is 90 minutes down another 810 minutes before Suarez returns. Seems Pato may be heading to PSG been hugely dissapointed with him the last few months hasn't done it at all for Milan but has been doing Berlusconi's daughter alrite.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,238 ✭✭✭✭Diabhal Beag


    Really thought at one point that Pato had the same potential as Messi when he burst onto the scene. Himself and Nilmar when he was at Lyon have been the only two who I'd really thought would be the best players in the world in their prime.

    Does anyone have a verified account for the Deathvalley driver forum? I say i must have rgistered 30-40 times in the last few years and my account has never once been verified.

    I only want access at this stage so all my previous efforts have not been in vain.

    A case of explosive diaorerra (stomach flu) and the mot coming home from work in tears just there due a massive work incident that wasnt her fault but she will probably be blamed for. What a better start to the weekend!!!! :(

    Depends which forum you are on. PM Alan4L is probably the best and most accessible way as he has a fast track as knows a few mods well there.

    People used to think DVDR was being douchey and exclusive in accepting new members. In actual fact the DVDR email rarely gets checked and is riddled with spam.

    No I guess.

    He changed his username from Rob Naylor to Col. Da Bears not too much before he got signed. He hasnt logged in since September under that (Admin) account. Just as well as he wrote all sorts about everyone and used put out bootleg DVD comps baring his name on the DVDR forum.

    What a performance by Ulster tonite, twas immense.
    Blackburn fans are staging a 24 hour protest outside their home stadium, ewood part I think. It'd be priceless if it was outside Steve Kean's house. How sad are some football fans though, as if clubs care what their fans do.

    how could u access the US version of netflix - wouldn't you need a US credit card? I wonder if u could use this over Xbox Live, which is now partnered with Netflix.

    I'm actually using it on my Xbox!

    Signed up for Netflix last week(free for 1 month)but the Irish lineup is pretty limited,so thought I'd try the US version tonight.So much more movies and TV shows then our version!

    Just followed the directions here: http://support.unblock-us.com/customer/portal/articles/291532 (Unblock is free for the 1st week)

    Works perfectly,just watched The Fighter there and I'm going to watch the AWA documentary now!

    Do you have to set up a new netflix account for this to work?

    I set up a netflix account last week for my xbox but if I change the DNS and then click into netflix will I automatically get the US stuff or will I have to sign up again?

    Thanks


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,116 ✭✭✭starviewadams


    No you don't have to sign up again,I'm still using the one I signed up with originally.


  • Posts: 6,247 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]

    Cool mate thanks.

    Just 1 more thing. I'm a bit crap with computers etc but is there anything to worry about by using the DNS provided? Could it be some way of "hacking" ya etc.

    Sorry if its a ridiculous question.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,116 ✭✭✭starviewadams


    Not 100% sure,but the site looks pretty professional and there isn't much they could hack from my Xbox anyways if it is dodgy.Good amount of people recommended them on the netflix thread over on the film forum too.

    What is this, the playstation network?! :pac:

    I think that's just changing your IP to point to theirs. This sounds fairly amazing alright. I'm gonna check it out at a mate's/he already has netflix then i think it'll be full steam ahead. €7 for Netflix Ireland and $5 to access the US account is wonderful! No excuse really!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,600 ✭✭✭✭CMpunked


    I gave unblock-us nothing, no email address, nothing. Just changed the DNs on my Xbox and have the us content.
    Suppose I'll see is it still working in a weeks time. :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,014 ✭✭✭✭jaykhunter

    I'd say that's what gimmick looked like when we were all crapping ourselves about the draft!

    Hold up, 10,000 posts?!

    Is there any content removed from netflix when you switch from the Irish version to the U.S version? Anything noticeable anyway.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,492 ✭✭✭EdK


    love the result of the dns netflix trick but now any way to not pay $4.99 a month for the dns server?

    Few British shows. Misfits, peep show etc. no big deal really as 4od and the likes usually have the shows you miss.
    But strangely, Netflix us has more eps of top gear than the Irish one.
