What do you think POS will do for their birthday this year?

They will release some REALLY cool stuff! Better than Last year!

Some new stuff, not much

Nothing new at all. Just rephrasing some old, useless info with no meaning

There is in  reality no TSL, POS is working with VU on the downfall of KQ as we know it, and Cesar is not who he says he is...

I really don't care what they show off. The project is a waste of time

They'll just announce that we were all Punk'd!

We've been Punk'd! :P

No, seriously, they will release some REALLY cool stuff!

If we've been punk'd, then Ashton Kutcher would start posting it on the forum. Wait, from the distance, I can barely see something. It's a bird, it's plane, it's Ashton Kutcher! I crack myself up sometimes!

Ok, the visuals caused by that post are WAY too entertaining. XD

Guys, I wouldn't use the acronym POS for Phoenix Online Studios.  When I first saw the topic, I thought it was a joke.

POS, AFAIK, has always stood for Piece Of S***.

Phoenix isn't that.


Actually, the acronym POS stands for a whole bunch of things.
When googling for the acronym POS, only ~45,000 of the ~222,000 hits mention "piece of", so this usage can't be the most common one ('Point Of Sale' gets even more hits). Also, googling for POS finds several companies which use it, regardless of the 'alternative' meaning.
Whether you see it as a 'Piece Of S***' or not is totally up to you, I guess... :-\

Yeah I'm used to POS as piece of ____, but it never crossed my mind.

That's fine, but alot of people (yes, alot) are like me, and when I saw POS, I thought "Wha?  Who are they talking about? Who's a Piece of ____"  You get my point.

Just something to think about.

I certainly didn't think "Man, it's Point of Sale's Birthday!" (Off Topic, I almost took a job at NCR, the supreme Point of Sale creator).

Either way, in this place POS stands for "Phoenix Online Studios" and I believe that has been already cleared up.

Whatever other connotation given over here would become personal, anyhow. Whenever we've been featured at an article usually they write "Phoenix Online Studios" first and therefore they write down POS, obviously as it goes in writing.

No, we're not a Piece Of sh*t, but I believe the whole point about that matter has been cleared up by previous posts.


Going back to TSL birthday, Cesar and I have been discussing about it and it, although nothing is set on stone what we're going to give out/do that day, is going to be awesoommeeee :)

Hahaha, someone please tie up the crazy man away :P

Either way, I'd like to hear what you think will happen that day!!

My guesses are:
1.- Cesar will dress up as bunny and dance around  :o
2.- The website will disappear!  :dead:
3.- Neil will give out cookies to everyone :D


I vote for... number 3 :P

Although, seriously, you've got 2 months to start wondering what the surprise will be ;)

LOTS of cool stuff. BETTER than last year by FAR!  ;D

Right, Neil?  :P

Maybe it's because she's different--not the same

Yay, cookies! Are they sugar cookies? I hate Chocolate Chip! Aww, why can't you tell us? I've been a good boy, haven't I? I've done the drooling over the wonderfully done screenshots... My guess is this: You will A. Bring us closer to the release of the game, or B. You WILL release the game that day! I hope it's option B! (It have better be, or else!)

I would love to see option 1! And option 2 would be very dissapointing!
