The Canada cord cutting option question has been posted a few times but the information is sparse. I wanted to put together a definitive list for options available to us Canadians for 2012. I cut the cord myself about 2 years ago and my setup is as follows:

• BoxeeBox (by D-Link)
• TekSavvy
• OTA antenna
• Blocknews account
• Unblock-us proxy

I currently love my setup and wouldn't change a thing but I'm in the process of cord cutting for my parents who have a cable bill north of $200 a month. The first thing I'm doing is cancelling cable/internet and phone and will be replacing those with OTA antenna, TekSavvy (or similar) and VOIP.ms for phone.

What I wanted to ask the community is

I'm not bashing in this question but I am trying to understand the problem with the NASL live stream. I'm currently watching IGNPL live on best quality with no lag (no fee). Last night I tried to watch NASL with my paid subscription ($25) and I had to keep dropping the quality to the point where I was watching a slideshow during any action on 240p. At this point I just turned it off and went to sleep.

Can someone help me understand what the problem is? I can watch the VODs fine and they look great but I'd rather be watching the live stream. Further to this point, as the NASL gets deeper into the season I will want to be watching the live stream over the VOD. Is that ever going to be p

I was using mofreeze for sporting events but it seems to have gone downhill lately. With hockey season up now are there any reliable sites posting up live stream links for games?

1x Rane TTM 57 SL ($1300) images!

The mixer is in great condition with all knobs working fine and no wear on any of the dial labels (see attached photos). Unit comes with USB/Power cable and orginal box (if I can find it). The latest Serato Scratch software can be downloaded online.

1x Numark TTX ($200) images!

I have a pair of TTXs for sale but 1 of them is in better condition than the other. The turntable has seen some use but never in a club environment. There are minor scuffs and nicks on the unit but nothing that impacts the function on the turntable itself.

Optional: 1x Numark TTX ($150)

Serious inquires only please. I

Not sure if my post format was correct but I was hoping to get rid of some extra stuff I have around the house.

For sale:

• 1 PSP (s/n PSP1001) - it was very hackable when I got it but it hasn't been used in over 2 years.

• PSP games - if you take the PSP the games are yours

• 1 Volcano Vapourizer - not the digital one.

(I have no idea what to price the above items at so best offer takes it)

I'm just starting up a resolution to get in shape and feel better and wondering if anyone is looking for a buddy in the east end at system x fitness (corner or queen and kingston). I'm horribly out of shape from a broken leg this year so I'm starting off real slow with a couch to 5k. Right now I'm starting off just on the legs so I can get some muscle built up on the broken leg but I would really like to incorporate a proper schedule working all muscles.

Is anyone in the area and interested?

Does anyone else have issues with Medic revive points after this patch? I was having some weird problems where one life would work fine and give points while another life would give me points on everything but revives. I haven't been able to recreate how or why this happens but it's quite often for me.

Just last night I was a medic rushing up the second set of mcoms of Nelson and I was getting proper revive points. I died and was revived by a nearby medic but I noticed that I was getting 0 points for revives and health kits I dropped. I died a few minutes later and was back to getting points.

People thought I was just bitching and trying to trick people into going medic (on a heavily o

Had to let the server run out this month. We got our server up to #5 in Canada which is awesome so thanks everyone (especially SmilingJoe!).

The weather is too nice outside, the patch is too slow and the new 'map pack' does not really contain new maps. It was a fun run but the game is definitely running dry right now. I'll probably be back in a few months depending on content.

I'm having problems trying to populate my 32-man server. Does anyone have tips of attracting (and keeping) players? I know there's definitely a critical mass at about 16 people but getting to that point seems impossible these days. I got the server for the month and I would keep it longer but right now having <10 people on a good night is disheartening. Any help/tips appreciated.

Update: We finally filled the server last night and we're still full at this moment. Thanks for the tips and we'd love to see you guys out.

Our original server was 16 player but it didn't seem to fill up quite well so we thought to try out a 32 man for the month.

Best way to find us is to type Bacon in the search box on the server browser. Hope to see you out tonight - we'll be starting around 8pm EST.

Ventrilo server available here: vent15.gameservers.com

port: 4303

I am using gameservers right now but they are a little pricey. Just wondering if there is somewhere to get a list of companies that provide server rentals for BC2. Through some searching I found lowpinggameservers.com who seem to be very cheap ($0.89/slot) and offer 100% money back if you're not happy.

Who do you guys use and are you happy? What do you pay?

For the Toronto redditors - me and my buddies have rented a server for the month and will keep it going longer as long as the traffic stays. The server is located in Montreal but we're all local Toronto players. Anyone is welcome to join,
