Just to get this out of the way...

I wanted to let everyone know that I refuse to participate in the stupidity that is April Fool's Day on the Internet. 99.9% of the "jokes" that most sites perpetrate are unoriginal and unfunny, ranging from the "oh, ha ha, we totally changed the look of our site" to the "we're shutting down everything and changing our business model" to even weaker attempts at humor. This kind of crap generally renders the Internet useless for most of the day, and I refuse to insult my readers and fans with that garbage.

And now back to our regularly scheduled blogging and sticker-hunting...

Insidious Coming Soon sticker

Changes regarding the forum

I've had some questions crop up recently regarding privacy and personal security on the forum. In the interest of that I have made a few adjustments. The forum will still be free for everyone to use, but it will now require registration in order to be able to view the posts. Registration is quick and easy and once you've registered you'll be able to both view the discussions as well as post your comments.

As always, you can view the forum from the page here on the blog, or directly at stickerfaq.vanillaforums.com

Showtime Sports Fan

Req: ???
Note: This one triggered out of the blue on a check-in to a Showtime Boxing event, so I'm not exactly sure of the requirements. I suspect that it requires a check-in to at least one each of a NASCAR, NFL, MMA, and Boxing event.




You'll notice that the Strikeforce Fan sticker is conspicuously absent from this post. This is because despite my checking-in to multiple Strikeforce events and every Strikeforce topic I can find, the sticker refuses to trigger for me. If anyone can suggest a Strikeforce-related event or topic that is not one of the ones listed below, I'd be happy to hear it:
