    Yeah... I get that feeling a lot too when I see a friend that has a lot of odd apps (hidden gems) and I wonder if they come to TA, but never ask since I am a closet apple nerd. ;)

    I guess by the numbers, there are millions of ipod users and only 10,000? TA users, so the odds aren't good.

    Oh well, I am rambling now.

    EDIT: 40,00 members and 8,000 active, still million to 40,000 are not not good odds. :/

    I don't. Then everyone will realize that instead of hanging out with them I post here and play on my ipod.

    Well I mean that they are here, I wouldn't want them to know.

    Yeah I'm a closet apple nerd too. But when I see someone who has games on their iPod I always comment and I tell them about some great games that they'd otherwise never know about. (like doodle jump before it hit top100, I felt good about that one)

    Little of my friends have iPods and I'm the only one who has access to a credit card, the rest just get free ones or crack them; I told my friend about Infinity Project and he said he would check it out, I said "Great, so youre going to buy it then?" "No, I'll just use ...." you get the idea.

    It would be cool if I knew some of you so I actually know my friends actually use real money to get apps ;).

    That's not the question, you need to start reading topics, that's what they're for :rolleyes:

    There are one or two people on here I talk to on MSN, but none of my real life friends care about iPhones enough... well one does, but he doesn't care about games enough to sign up.

    Nope. And if anyone of my friends see this account with over 4,000 posts, I'll never hear the end of it.

    I'm glad people don't. I get all the hidden gems and new releases before anyone else. And boast that I got them free with promo codes!

    I'm friends with ziggeye creator of gravulous. Interestingly enough I worked with him many years ago and had no idea he was the developer :)

    I have one real life friend that's a TA member, but he's never posted. I'm the one that made him a TA account, because I'm forcibly trying to make him be as into iPhone gaming as me. If he could just put Modern Warfare 2 down for 5 minutes, that is. Other than that I've never met any of you IRL, but it seems like there's a good handful of people from my same area. Maybe someday we'll organize a gathering.
