It was at the Wheat Sheaf at King/Bathurst. It was a good time and I remember you winning it and them posting a pic of you holding everything.

I'm still rocking the crappy PS Display I got for under $100 when it first came out.
Where is that site now?
It was Fyrewulff that ran it. Looks like he requested an account deletion and doesn't post here anymore.
I'm still salty I went the wrong way when that Mister entered the bar and walked around at Warp factor 9 then bolted.
I should have taken a picture of the Stargate Command patch I got in the mail for buying their streaming service. You'd be jealous then!

Seriously thanks for posting this. Got $40-$52 for each game. Excellent deal and several games all sold at once, waaaaaaay more convenient than running around with online buyers.
Switch lite incoming
Tsilon was a golden age for deals. Got so many good deals. Went to the mortal kombat 9 tournament as well, they gave out copies of resistance vita there.
I literally would not be a vita collector if not for Tsilon. One of there accounts on steam, Mister R, is still active and plays games.

tsilon was good times, good deals on games. I think I got one of those turtlebeach headsets from FS for like $10? That bullshit MGR CE with the lavalamp thing wasn't that much more expensive, but they sent me the wrong copy iirc. What a waste that whole thing was.
Tsilon was amazing guys. Have so many memories of it. Still have my card as well. Still have Mister R and G and whoever on my various friends list.
Another cool event was going to the Assassin's Creed 3 press only event. Unlimited open bar in the distelleey district and for to play the prerelease game. For us it was being at like E3 or something.
And then the guy in sunglasses randomly comes in and starts handing out cards and then leaves. All this type of planning and stuff. I want to really know the story behind it!
But ya really good times. Still have my metal card as well. I'll try and find it.
I was talking about Tsilon with some of the Misters involved a while back, and the work put into the challenges was actually pretty fascinating. They would actually do the challenges themselves to see if they were plausible.
I also believe that I was one of the only people to actually do the FF6 Paladin Shield challenge.

smh at you all sleeping on fighting 255 battles with the cursed shield
I got from Tsilon: ACIII launch party invite, a bunch of $20 off preorders codes, that completely no strings attached free game(chose KOA: Reckoning), $70 off 3ds making it $100. $50 off WiiU preorder, and a pile of Cinema Now codes that I used to rent movies for a couple of years.
Just sold mine.
The move controllers alone could net up to $40. Compatible with PSVR so there's value.
Console between $50-$80 assuming controllers are original sony brand and still work.
Have you guys seen that the new Final rates for aggregated wholesale high-speed access services that were published by the CRTC this week? They are ridiculously low! This means that third party ISPs who are using Bell/Videotron/Rogers/Cogeco's lines will now pay a LOT less for those lines which, in turn, means that the price to the consumer will go down by a lot soon too.
Here's the thread on DSL Reports about it in the EBOX sub forum (my ISP).. Even the EBOX CEO cannot believe it lol
And here's an handy table showing you the prices and the difference with the old rates from 2016 (first column is Speed)

Well, I assume I should get excited when someone can actually point me to a plan I can buy now and say "wow this is cheap!"
Yeah those new rates will go in effect soon so it will take a few weeks to trickle down
Yeah I agree but, for my ISP anyway, pretty much anything over like 200MBps automatically comes with unlimited.
That will change if the CRTC let's Robelus go hog wild increasing data fees in response to this. You know they are going to try.

I'm expecting Rogers and Bell are prepping to raise prices for their direct customers to make up for "lost revenue"

I've currently got to renew my home internet and was about to call Rogers to get them to discount me on the student plan.. I don't want to get locked into higher rates for 12 months.
Could be anywhere from a few weeks to several months to see any difference.
I could see independent providers start to simplify plans even further since the access rates between mid and high tier plans no longer has such a wide difference. So maybe we see something like:
30/5 for $30
150/10 for $40
250/20 for $50
Gigabit for $70
It's hard to say as every isp has their own metrics, cash flow situation, and long term strategy (eg growth in users vs growth in profit).
What are the numbers representing? I get the Down/Up speeds, but is the 12,79 supposed to be $12.79 average for a 5/1 plan?Have you guys seen that the new Final rates for aggregated wholesale high-speed access services that were published by the CRTC this week?

It's the price that the third party isp is paying the big telecom to "rent" the line.
Excellent ISP. Referred a ton of relatives to them since they actually answer their phones and respectfully respond with advice. I'm hoping for the same!
Other than Best Buy and Staples - what stores sell decent priced laptop bags? Need to get it today so can't order online
Backpacks or like a carrying case? I have a nice black Hershel backpack that is fitted for laptops. Id recommend it.
Yeah. I had been hearing but good things about them. Hopefully they will lower the price of 250/20 and I will definitely switch to them.
I don't know, I'm not looking to spend a lot on it, messenger bag style would be best though
Too bad my camera backpack isn't big enough to hold it
It's a 17 inch laptop
Oh really? A lot of the challenges I legit did as well. Sometimes I had to do savestates on emulators, but I tried most of the time. If anything, they were real pictures for sure and not taken from somewhere online.
I always hoped the metal card would do something one day. :(
All in all I probably got close $1000 worth of items/discounts with Tsilon aka nolisT aka G-List. Good times for sure.
Out here in the Atlantic provinces where Bell Alliant exists, the prices are already comparatively reasonable provided you're able to nab a special offer. Glad to see things slowly but surely move forward elsewhere.
That said, I am looking forward whatever personal savings may come for said provinces for Fiber Op.

Older friends (60+) had some ancient capped plan at $80/mth approx since I got them into Netflix. Told them to call in and ask for them to match Fido ($60? Unlimited was key) and according to her they got resistance from CSR.
They eventually made it happen but she was questioning why they would even resist matching their own owned-brand lol.
I guess there's lots of people still on capped plans from 2005 with the annual $3-$5 increase tacked on.
it comes into play in January, so probably February for price changes
Still on the gigabit plan for 40? 60? A month or whatever. Don't think I'm moving back to a reseller anytime soon. Don't recall any of them even going above 250-300 mbps. And with the new pricing, I kinda don't expect them to offer gigabit sub $60 anyway. Would love to be proven wrong though.
