Right now (12/14 at 9PM eastern) on the episode regarding the death of Rock Hudson. I didn't even know they knew one another much less were that close.

Just saying, but its not always possible to access a 'full version'. I was out of town during the week and only had access via my phone. I was curious to see what show it was too.

Upgrade your phone.

The LG Genesis is less than year old and features a rather large screen. Please let me know if you know of a special version of the Android browser that displays the subtitles (My guess is you don't).

Upgrade your phone.
Going to help him pay for it? ;-)

I don't think that has anything to do with it. I have a Samsung Stratosphere and it doesn't show subtitles on mine either. I don't remember if they showed up on my old Blackberry.
/ObGameShow: A trip to the Stratosphere hotel was the consolation prize on Card Sharks 01.

I don't. Just wanted to see if you snarky responders can take it as well as you dish it out.

Of course not. Maybe use a real browser, then?

My God, Jimmy. If you're gonna snark, at least know what in the holy hell you're talking about.

Back to the topic, IIRC, during a phone conversation with Susan (this was the time she was involved in Dan Enright's life, so our paths momentarily crossed), she mentioned both she and Pat Boone made frequent visits to Rock in his final days for company and encouragement. Have to admit it was an awkward time, as Dan was head over heels for Susan, but still married. She later went on to say in an interview that the relationship did cost her a few things professionally and personally. If you've seen Dan's headstone at Find A Grave, you see how some of Dan's more orthodox associates were not happy with it. However, I still have a copy somewhere of the memorial packet she put together for Dan's funeral, and it definitely shows a deep affection for him. Her marriages to Gordon McLendon and Dick Ebersol and her Wheel of Fortune work put her in several celebrity circles, and she made many friends with stars and their wives.

You know what? I'm calling BS on this whole thing. The mobile site should be the same across all platforms.
...shouldn't it?
(I'm sorry- today has got me in one of those moods...)

Yeahhh.... there's no (http://img208.imageshack.us/img208/3718/img0328.png) subtitle (http://img64.imageshack.us/img64/921/img0329.png) on the mobile version of this site. All detracting parties are free to send Mr. Nelson or Odor a fruit basket.

But there's a fantastic little "Full Version" link at the bottom of the goddamn page. (http://"http://f.cl.ly/items/2N3G3L3W1m0I0E1l0J2w/photo.PNG")

Clearly. But I'm not going to expect someone to use the full version on their phone when the mobile version is the one your phone directs to and is more convenient.

Well, when someone doesn't use it and asks a question that can be answered if they could be bothered to push that one button, how can you have sympathy for it? I mean, it isn't THAT hard.

My apologies for not adding the show in the body of the message, I didn't know it would appear that way on mobile devices. Next time, I'll keep it mobile friendly. Carry on.

And how are we supposed to know that the detail we want is in the subtitle if we can't friggin' see it?

Rule 1 of mobile web usage: if you think you're missing something, look for the "full version" link. No excuses for "convenience."

Wow, that's quite an engraving, all right!

That's not my problem, honestly.

But yet you found it your problem to chastize him for the miscommunication that we're trying to explain in the first place?

I figured rule one of forum posting would probably be to include all pertinent information in the body of the post.

The point- which you're missing- is that there is a simple solution to the problem that if one looked for it, one could find it VERY easily. Is the mobile site good? Yes, but there are limits to it, one of them being the inability to view certain things such as a full title. In that case, there is a way around that particular limit, which enables the user to view the full screen version of the site.
I mean, why am I the bad guy for telling someone the answer is right in front of his face if he can be bothered to look for it? How is that different from anyone who can't be bothered to Google information and instead poll the forum, or someone who asks an obvious question that they could simply find with the search function? I don't think I'm being unreasonable.
Boy, that two years on moderated status did wonders, didn't it?
I wouldn't talk, Mark. I'm shocked YOU haven't been put on modded status at any point- my attitude may not always be pleasant but yours isn't exactly sunshine, lollipops, and rainbows either.
-
The point- which you're missing- is that there is a simple solution to the problem that if one looked for it,
I get the point. But I think my point supersedes that point, being "just put the information in the proper location and no one has to look for anything in the first place."
my attitude may not always be pleasant but yours isn't exactly sunshine, lollipops, and rainbows either.
Yes, but I don't think Mark has ever publicly declared to be trying to turn things around and then contacted someone who has criticized his "changed ways" in public when they appear to be patterning the same things we've seen before.
ETA: There's a thread about this (http://"http://gameshow.ipbhost.com/index.php?showtopic=22632") in Behind the Scenes now, so I guess furthered discussion of this issue can be taken up there instead of polluting here.

I don't agree, although your point is valid. The information in this case, IMO, was easy enough to find. But to each his own.

Well, when I have people like you and Mark constantly watching my posts waiting for the slightest thing that might set you off and point and say "look look look same old crap", it kind of defeats the purpose, doesn't it?
I mean, I don't understand a couple of things. The point should have simply ended with "full version". And it DEFINITELY should have ended when the dude of pac set everyone who wasn't straight straight. (That doesn't sound right, I know.) And I also don't understand why this was made into such a big deal- was it just because I said it?
Maybe we all (especially me) just need to breathe a bit. (I seriously didn't think my comments were going to cause THAT much of a stir, especially considering how easy things could have been found- and I'll keep hammering that point home, sorry.)
ETA: Okay, I didn't see that thread. But these are going to be my last comments on the issue so I'm sticking them here. Because the last thing I want to do is continue this any further than it's already gone.
