Ian Posted September 29, 2006 Posted September 29, 2006 Okay so I'm watching this movie and then all of the sudden this storm rolls in and it KILLS THE SATELLITE SIGNAL. So I missed the last 10 minutes of the movie (which were REALLLY IMPORTANT). Have you guys ever had this happen to you <_<?
Ellie_Penguin Posted September 29, 2006 Posted September 29, 2006 Actually yes, but a storm didn't cause that lol just a blackout. What movie was it?
Samuel Posted September 29, 2006 Posted September 29, 2006 Not that, but I've had similar: last 15 minutes, late night, some really good drama. And the elerctric runs out. (I dunno if you Americans have this; but we pay for electricity on a special key which needs to be topped up; inserting the key into your electric machine thing gives you the electric, reading how much you paid, and calculating how much you get; anyway, we had forgotton to put the key in the machine, so we had £10 of electric on the key but not on the meter) And thus the stupid film cuts out -_- As well as the electric, so I'm there in the dark, looking for a torch and the stupid key to turn the meter/machine back on XD
The Original Luna Posted September 29, 2006 Posted September 29, 2006 *UNRELATED* i was playing neopets, when mum burnt the washing, the electrics burned out. I lost my great scores!! But a movie, that's never happened..
dailyneogirl_ Posted September 30, 2006 Posted September 30, 2006 Just to be serious, It happened to me loads of times. x((((
Y E L L O W S T A R Posted September 30, 2006 Posted September 30, 2006 Happened to me, at my granparents' , and a tree fell on the wire-cable things in the sky, and we didn't have electricity for 3 days, and the movie was cut halfway... ^Yes, what movie was it?
Guest HBK Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 Movies not really, but once my friends of my class cut the school's electricity and we had classes in the dark for the whole morning, lol!
Awesome_Paul Posted October 8, 2006 Posted October 8, 2006 Yeah that is really annoying, about 5 maybe 6 years ago, Sky tv was doing the Godfather Part I, II, III in 3 days (like part 1 on first day, part 2 on second etc) so i watch the first 2 parts. So the third part comes on, and im like all into the story, 30 minutes before the end, its gets realkly windy and the signal goes, I was so annoyed, I was having a go at the wind and the Sky Box. Nearly 3 Hours per Part, watched Over 8 Hours of it across the 3 Days and i miss the last 30 minutes :crying:
Erika Posted October 9, 2006 Posted October 9, 2006 Storms never get my tv/computer off. It's like impossible
.Dan. Posted October 10, 2006 Posted October 10, 2006 Maybe a decent power connection or a surge protector. Those things are so chunky..
Justin Posted November 27, 2006 Posted November 27, 2006 Storms killing satellite signals... I'm still doubting it. About these frustrating experiences, I'll share mine as well. Last week, the hot water machine (Is it what that called? That thingy to give you hot water when bathing) went *mad* and when I was about to wash off the shampoo on my hair, *bang* the electricity went cut. (I dunno it's the prob with the machine YET) What pis*ed me most is that, when dad came home, he did the same thing, and i was right using my PC. When I was about to press the save button for a piece of essay I wrote the WHOLE night, THE #)(%*@)# ELECTRICITY WENT CUT AGAIN, and I had to write half of the whole thing again....
Strategos Posted December 5, 2006 Posted December 5, 2006 Yikes, Tipem. (even though you're missing.) Anyways, no, that's never happened. One reason is that I don't watch TV. Ha. :P
Bit950340 Posted December 29, 2006 Posted December 29, 2006 I was playing the darkest faerie the video game and I got to a really good part and my power shut off!!!Nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!! :O
