That must be a fancy option that's not in all the layouts. You can take the link for the page you're on and count down and modify the 'start' number to link your post directly as well.

Never thought about the other themes. So I did some testing.

AcidTech - The plus sign in a square next to the "Re: 'Thread title' " does the trick. (Top left of post)

GlossyBlue - The little paper icon next to the "Posted: 'Date / time' ". (Top right of post)

ProSilver - The little paper icon next to the "by 'username' on 'date / time' ". (On the top left of post)

SubSilver2 - Same as Glossy Blue.

i got links for 99 cents on ebay, or 5 bones with shipping included. i had 2 or 3 dollars in pay pal which accounts for the 3 dollar total. there are a few more games that i can snag for 99 cents on ebay. it's just a matter of being patient and waiting for those games to pop up in open auction.

i am glad to have road rash out the way. i wouldn't call it rare, but copies aren't always listed on ebay. but, they do pop up enough that prices aren't ridiculous. one just sold in open auction for 51 dollars. but, i am pretty sure shill bidding was going on; it was just two people going back and forth with the bidding. also, one recently sold for 11 in open auction which makes the 51 dollars look very suspicious.

and the reason i am keeping track of what i am spending is because i have a goal of averaging 10 dollars per game. not likely to happen, but definitely a good goal.

the problem with sega cd games on ebay is that most games are selling with BINs and most BINs have ridiculous prices. but, i am sure this trend follows with most other games on the bay. it's all about being patient and waiting for games to pop up in open auction. recently, chris leach put up a shit ton of sega cd games in his b/s/t thread with prices comparable to open auction prices. i couldn't pass them up. so i bought everything i didn't own from him...which was only 3 games. but, that is 3 less. do i plan on playing them?!? HEEELLL no.

PS: for anybody that gets this far, if you happen to see championship soccer '94 or espn nba hangtime '95 could you pretty please with sugar on top buy them. since they are sport titles you can get lucky with the price and you will make a nice profit when you sell them to me.
