Why do people post 'open invites' then say subscribers only? Do they get something special from fellow subscribers? Maybe they have a secret handshake? idk seems fishy to me..

"Excuse me sir, u mind sharing this taxi?"

Sorry, Subscribers Only...

Maybe they are counting on their huge game loads to act as a handicap, making winning against them easier...? ^_^

Talking of taxi's, I heard the reason so many Chinese live in London is that when they hail a cab they say "Harrow, taxi driver".

i dont know why i would rather play none subs for this reason but i dont mind who i play as long as i'm learning something or teaching someone. none subs usually give up lost positions because they only get 6 games. but subscribers on the other hand can sometimes drag a game on for months.

There's a very good friend of mine who is Chinese and he speaks like that 🙂
We spend a lot of time joking about each others accents, I'm living in Cork, Ireland, and believe me... we have the worst accent ever here.
