CAPPICGEAR is now on eBay! [Friends please read]
Current mood: accomplished
Category: Fashion, Style, Shopping

This past weekend I was able to FINALLY put my Gear up on eBay. I only put up Lids for all 32 teams and it was a lot of work so no hoodies yet. If you have been wanting to buy a Lid please do so on eBay, I would like build my Feedback. I do not want charity form someone who buys a Lid just so they can help out - only buy if you're a football fan and will actually wear it or buy it for someone who is a fan. I took a pic of the Auction page layout and this is what it looks like for all 32 teams. I spent all weekend long and I think it looks very pretty what do you guys think!? =D

CLICK HERE TO VIEW THE eBay AUCTIONS FOR ALL 32 TEAMS

Some of you already know that I will be doing a CAPPICGEAR Giveaway. The money I make from the eBay Auctions will go towards the Video Camera I would like to get. Rather than announcing the Giveaway winners in a Blog, I thought it would be fun to do it as a Video! You guys will actually get to see me pick out the winners from a fishbowl lol!! It's gonna be fun I am so excited yay!! <3Kristen

WARNING: DJ Magnetic Rip-off Alert [RIDERS READ]
Category: Pets and Animals

As much as I dislike giving our unfriendly foe DJ Magnetic any sort of attention I felt this Blog was necessary. I get quite a few Messages everyday with questions, help, concerns, suggestions, anything about the game pretty much I've gotten them all. The image of this certain Message below I received early June - this was the first Message of it's kind that I saved concerning DJ Magnetic. At the time we were all so innocent, $1 Million Dollars were rare and the game was still in it's early stages. After reading her Message, I never really understood of how and why she was scammed by DJ. Christine was one of my respected original Train Riders so I replied asking her what he did that was so hurtful... but she never replied back.

Honestly I never followed up on it thinking it would pass. However soon after, I received another Message from another Player saying they too were scammed by DJ, followed by another, and another and another.... and yes it is a fact and I know because I saved all those Messages. Christine's Message was almost two months ago - she got tricked by DJ and he still continues to do it to other Players. He is a bad person and we need to start warning other Players, so if you were scammed by DJ Magnetic you need to Comment below to let others know that they should not deal with DJ. <3Kristen

OYF REVOLUTION [OPEN] Riders read!
Current mood: fabulous
Category: Pets and Animals

"Let's make like a fabric softener and snuggle!"

OYF REVOLUTION
By Kristen Caporale

Main Entry: rev·o·lu·tion
Pronunciation: ..ˌre-və-ˈlü-shən..
Function: noun
Etymology: Middle English revolucioun, from Middle French revolution, from Late Latin revolution-, revolutio, from Latin revolvere to revolve

Definition:
a: a sudden, radical, or complete change b: a fundamental change in political organization; especially : the overthrow or renunciation of one government or ruler and the substitution of another by the governed c: activity or movement designed to effect fundamental changes in the socioeconomic situation d: a fundamental change in the way of thinking about or visualizing something : a change of paradigm

This game sure has come a long way hasn't it!? At first it was just a game - remember when Players would get mad and afterwards all you had to say to them was "it's just a game". You could say that to anyone about anything and it just made everything better lol. It was like your instant "get out of screwing someone over free" card. I think I may have seen that phrase about a hundred times, but as time went on you never see anyone say "it's just a game".

A lot of Players implicated me of wrong doing because I would not talk about the hot topic - some even thought I deleted my Blogs just so I could hide evidence. I deleted my Pet Blogs, for one, people would bring in drama distracting my Riders and at that point the game was not fun anymore. Everyone was so busy pointing fingers, worried about reaching millions, wanting to move millions... in the middle of this chaos the people who just wanted to play and get their worth up to a mere $100k were being neglected... where was the fun in that. Second, I was simply trying to uphold the concept to not "tattle tale". Ever since we were little, we were told not to do this and a lot of people, even as adults still misconstrued it's true meaning. Not so you would get your friend in trouble, it was to give your friend a chance to admit to the wrong doing. That was the case for the Glitchers - they were given that chance and they did admit but not as much you all wanted them to. Even though their performance enhanced methods were now disabled, they still had plenty to start their stronghold enough to greatly affect the game.

Quite frankly this was now old news so it's time to move on and there's no sense in beating a dead horse. I could've easily given up or see it as an opportunity to step up my game. As for my Pet Blogs, I do admit it was a mistake deleting them - it only added fire to their regime. Compared to the swap meet Forum, my Blogs were useful tools and was a place where Players could turn to for help and support. I never claimed to have or knew all the answers but at least my Pet Blogs gave Players a sense of direction on how to play and more importantly play the game on trust. After I deleted my Blogs they no longer had a neutral place to go to. Players are more vulnerable than ever and can now be easily manipulated by all these different clicks.

DJ obviously stepped up his game, and we all know how he plays =P - you have DJ, him and himself - then you have the njglitch - Will and David's group - the Millionaire's Club - all these different Trains... the game is now on a different level but they all have one thing in common... and that's to catch up to all those Glitchers. There's nothing wrong with that and there's nothing wrong with forming your own group, but Players were being blindsided into thinking you had to join a group in order to play just so you can advance. Not only that, but some of DJ's dirty tricks and the Clan's tactic's were being copied.... it is now hell out there and Players are doing what it takes to out do each other just to get back at the Borg Clan.

Everyone who plays this game has a life outside MySpace - they have kids, they go to school, work, friends, boyfriends, girlfriends... so I am sure they really aren't like that in real life and they do have ethics. Maybe since they'll never ever meet the people they play with they think it gives them the right to screw them over. OR they see a Player do this... they hear of another Player doing that... everybody is doing it to each other so why shouldn't you. OR maybe, it's just part of the game and you're suppose to deliberately hurt other Players in order to gain and advance. Not using lies and deceit is like not bringing a ball and bat to a baseball game - it has become that of an importance to exhibit shady behavior and is now a common practice amongst Players. "What we do In life echoes in eternity" ~Maximus. What we do in OYF echoes in MySpace, especially if it's shady.

However not all souls were lost. Defiance was strong, our independence and character could not be bargained with remaining true to the game. I'm not the one for "I'm first to this first to that and I only play with winners" blah blah blah. This was not just about topping the Rankings but more importantly it was about how we topped the Rankings. Trust was a key element and this is how we came together - we depended on one another and there were no hesitations to help each other. Even though our group was small our impact was big enough to still prevail. I was not part of a Clan, didn't have to be a Borg, work in a Casino, join the njglitch, do the glitch nor scammed or hustled. I didn't want to and I chose not to and you also have this choice... everyone has that choice and besides it's just not worth it. I never compromised character for conquer because in the end I still remembered that... "it's just a game". <3Kristen

>>>>>>>>>>    <<<<<<<<<<

Well it just proves my point even more on how far this game has gone from being "just a game". I have decided to close Comments for this Blog because there really is no sense in going toe to toe with David and it seems he has taken this game to another level. I never wanted to get caught up with the game and this was the reason why I avoided the Forums. If there were more than one, then it would've been worth my time to listen and continue this Blog - however there are over 6 million Players and David seems to be the only one who has taken this game way too personal.... besides I really don't want to ride a merry go round with only one other person. This Blog was meant to show appreciation to my Riders and to all the Players but I guess all good things must come to an end. I will continue to leave this Blog up to show and remind everyone of how ugly this game has become.

The Pet Express - need help raising your Worth?
Current mood: accomplished
Category: Pets and Animals

Shortly after OYF was released on MySpace, Cissa, Meme and I (yes us 3 women) started... and were the first ones, to start the Pet Trains. I first started the Trains through my Blogs and from there the "Train" concept caught on and is still the most effective way to quickly up your Worth. I have 1,375 Friends who Subscribed to my Pet Train Blogs and all 1,375 are now worth over $1 MILLION DOLLARS. We still do Pet Trains and between the three of us we have helped thousands of Players reach their MILLION DOLLAR goal!

>>Who can ride the Train?
Everyone is welcome to ride, however If you are worth $1mil or over you cannot ride NO EXCEPTIONS so please don't be greedy - give other Players a chance.

>>What do I need to do first?
You must have enough money saved up. This has always been my rule so if you want to be worth $1 MILLION DOLLARS you must have $1 MILLION DOLLARS.

>>What if I do not have enough money?
If you really are serious about playing this game you have to put in the time - you have to buy/gift as much as possible and earn the money. Some of you may not have enough Friends to buy and gift to, that is why I have set up this page click here.

>>How much will my Worth go up?
If you ride my Express Train - if you are willing to help others - if you follow the Steps - everyone who rides my The Pet Express will reach the $1 MILLION DOLLAR goal!

==============================================================

If you're ready to ride The Pet Express,
just follow these Steps!

Step 1
I will check to make sure you have at least $1 MILLION DOLLARS in funds. If not you need to buy/gift as much as possible to earn the money. If you do not have $1 MILLION DOLLARS in funds YOU CANNOT RIDE MY TRAIN! Before you do any moves, please leave me a Comment to let me know you are ready to ride, thank you.

Step 2
Once you've been verified, I will search a Pet that cost between $300k and $200k then you have to gift that Pet to me. This is the ticket cost to ride my Train and yes, you'll be getting this money back - it will be automatically added to your funds while we're upping your worth.

Step 3
After I up your worth to $900,000 - you should have over $1 MILLION DOLLARS in funds. I helped you, now you have to help me so in order to keep the Train moving YOU HAVE TO BUY A PET FROM THE PET STATION.

Step 4
Once you have bought the Pet, only then I will place you in the $1 MILLION DOLLAR PET STATION where you will wait to be bought by another Player. Once a Player picks you up and buys you from the Station, you'll now be worth $1 MILLION DOLLARS!     

==============================================================

Worth: $924563   Buy chrizzypoo! {reject army}!

==============================================================

 Good luck to everyone and have fun! <3Kristen

Now, I made an XL Raiders and 3X Greenbay - I will be setting up your page in shopit so you can buy from there just so it's official. I took these Pics so you can see the size difference. The 3X is for a friend 6 ft 3, 235 lbs that's why the XL on top of the 3X makes it look really really small - but the XL is still way too big on me. I do have more Raiders and Greenbay fabric so if you would like one let me know your size =D <3Kristen

Category: no no no it’s FABULOUSNESS! Art and Photography

Step 1. Find Inspiration:

Internet is full of it you just have to look =] I found this at www.coolchaser.com - they also have this logo as a ready made themed layout.

 

This one started it all, the original and famous "Famous Stars and Straps" logo.

 

Step 2. Start from scratch:

Yes I used pencil and paper lol - it was the only way.. create from nothing baby! This was the finalized scanned design.

 

Step 3. Photoshop:

I would've loved to have done this in Vector, but I'm not good with the Pen Tool AND I do not have Illustrator (hint hint)

 

Step 4. The Goods:

Ta daaaaaaaa!! There you have it my version of the famous Famous logo, The Famous "K"! Approximate time of completion 5 hours so NOBODY BETTER STEAL MY SHIT or else I will kill you!! If you want to use my artwork, all you have to do is ask =] and make sure you give props too.

 

Step 5. Share the Wealth:

This one I made for a very dear Friend of mine and if you would be so kind to send him a Friend Request, http://www.myspace.com/pimpedoutprofiles13 I will be stoked! The Famous "R" was made for him and only him so I decided to make this off limits. Ray has the rights so if you need the letter R you need to ask for his permission.

 

Step 6. Subscribe to my Blog:

On my spare time I will be recreating all letters "A" through "Z". I will then post each one, one by one through this Blog and they will all be Royalty Free for anyone to use =] Sooooo please make sure you Subscribe to my Blog and you'll be the first to hear about the NEW Famous letters <3Kristen
