I hope and pray you are right. I am not selling but I am also no longer dreaming about all the loot I was going to make on this stock. That Q was a massive jolt of reality. So much money has been wasted and for what? I have been a believer since '04 and this is very hard to stomach.
British and a Manchester United fan to boot! Live in Ca. now so no better placed than anyone else on the board to check on the filings in England. Feeling extremely negative after the Q. I was trying to be positive all this time, but realistically there is NO way out of this abyss unless there is a MASSIVE nationwide advertising campaign that lasts for months and months. We know there is no money for that so it is over. JMHO
Bitterly disappointed that with the refer a friend, the new affiliates programme, the bus tour and the shell gas card that we have lost 3,000 subs since the last (count?).
This just goes to show that nothing will replace a NATIONAL advertising campaign on T.V, radio etc., The word of mouth, referrals etc., was always a cheap attempt and was never going to work in the face of the bombardment of advertising from Blockbuster, Netflix and Gamefly. I think I am finally admitting defeat on this. J.F. has frittered away all our money the last few years just when we should have been going head to head with the above companies. They have all the market share and we have NOTHING...IT IS OVER. JMHO.
By the way a few of us were questioning the D.C. operations and could tell something was up...next time people should listen instead of slamming down the poster.
Thanks for the info! I know this is the longest of long shots now. I just hope and pray there is a way out of this quagmire without an R/S.
Maybe there is more to this September rumour than just hot air? Maybe people in the " know " are loading up? No idea, just playing the guessing game.
I have a question for Z-Axis, Itrade, Jack897 and Fibinacci ( if you are out there )
Is there any historical data/evidence of a company surviving this toxic financing death spiral that you all called correctly? If the answer is no...what are we still doing here?
To be honest this stock has turned me into a Jekyll & Hyde. One day positive next day full of doom and gloom. Really, really want an end to this one way or another!
I have to say your argument is very convincing and has me more than a little unsettled. This was my first and last foray into penny land. I only put play money into this but I really thought it was a winner. If this is the case it will be very hard to stomach. The sad thing is that it really could have worked and been a great success! Why would J.F. want to be hated and reviled when he could have been a hero!? If he had make me a millionaire I would have personally flown out to Franklin to shake his hand and tell him what a genius he is...I am sure alot of other people would have well. Why would you want to be loathed, despised, known as an incompentent buffon etc., when you could have been placed high on a pedestal and had people telling you what a brilliant visionary you are? Gameznflix is the right product at the right time. Come on J.F...be the hero not the villain! JMHO
Say you are right and this was set up purely for the selling of shares. Why 9 distribution centers? Why not just 2 or 3 to look respectable. Gamefly ( much to my surprise has been operating on one for a long time ). Why rent the satellite, why have all those t.v. shows, why have the bus, why have the digital option, why find and hire Moroch? If I was running a scam I really do not think that I would waste all the money I had gained from the sales of all these shares on things that were not essential to the scam. Why would the scammer just turn around and throw the money away is what I am asking?
I do not think Moroch would have signed up with a shell/scam company. J.F. is using toxic financing as he had no other avenues at the time that was available. Every single filing has noted the effects of dilution on the shareholders holdings...what scam warns the punter up front that they have a very high possibility of losing all their money.
For all those bashers who come on here every day and print the same old crap about dilution and how we have all been taken why don't you just try something new for a change...get a life!?
I just want this over one way or another and at this point I am not sure if I really care about a good or bad outcome. Just want GZFX out of my life. I have been a loyal subscriber even though I can't get half the films I want. Soon as this " supposed " September "event" has either happened or not, I am cancelling my subscripton as I have given GZFX more than enough of my money for a service I don't really want .I guess I am a throwback as I have no problem dropping by the video store on the way home and I enjoy walking around deciding which film to rent. In this respect I am not anti-Gameznflix, I just prefer the old way of renting a video/DVD.
Samohttac,
Thanks for the info...do you have any idea why GZFX is releasing info this way and what is the significance?
Could someone tell me what this new filing is and where I can find it?
Thanks in advance!
If there is one consolation to be had from GZFX at the present time it is this; while the stock markets around the world are on the verge of some kind of financial collapse, WE have already " been there, done that". As one poster used to say " up from here" as there really is no other direction to go! JMHO
I used to get my DVD's from Torrance, however, now they come from Highlands and go back to Highlands so there is no redistribution going on. Has they happened to anyone else in CA? Could be something is going on with the D.C's. If anyone is still getting stuff from Torrance please let me know?
Holter,
I am with you all the way in your sentiment...the sad thing ( actually really, really really sad thing ), is that if J.F. had kept to the script and done what Blockbuster, Netflix and Gamefly are doing over the last few years, we MIGHT have become millionaires! I have never been on the ground floor of a stock that no one else knew about and with the potential to be massive; it was an amazing feeling. And then to watch all the money squandered on LITV, Clickcaster,the two T.V. channels, the satellite, the audio book thingy,and other stuff I might have forgotton about, has been a living nightmare.
The only reason I still have a tiny glimmer of hope and why I am still here is Moroch. I would not trust J.F to run a hot dog stand...way too complicated for him JMHO
Wayne,
When J.F should have been buying inventory, adding D.C's, and most importantly of all ADVERTISING, he was in fact spending all of our investment on these programs. The idea was that it would differentiate GnF from the competition and provide free advertising nationwide as all the T.V/cable companies rushed to buy these amazing shows. Well apparently only only one cable company in Seattle showed any interest and so it has been a massive failure. J.F. is out of money and ideas and that is why we have seen all the recent deletions from the web-site. He may have thought he could afford to keep one channel going, but actions speak louder than words.
I suggest for your sanity you move on...you will not find the remainng channel...it is GONE... just like all our money! JMHO
Holter,
Appreciate it; J.F. does appear to give you info from time to time and this is something we really need to know about. Most of the investors money that should have gone on inventory and advertising on the core rental business went on those programs and the satelite etc.,
Holter,
I have sent him an e-mail; he may or may not reply but this is a big change of direction for Gameznflix and we need to be informed by mgmt of this change.
Al,
The channel is gone; you can now only see Gamebytes on the web-site. What good is that? Nobody knows it is there apart from a few subscribers and investors! If my conclusions are incorrect it is incumbent upon J.F. to tell us what the f--k is going on!? JMHO
Al,
I am trying my best to be positive; I am not one of the serial bashers on this board. What I am doing is pointing out changes that I believe may or may not have significance! In the past when the button at the top was removed it meant that part of Gameznflix was being discontinued i.e. the book deal etc., and the other one beginning with C that I can't even rememeber. Is it such a stretch to conclude that GNFENT is gone if that button is gone and there is no way of bringing it up on the web-site? As for the bus tour it is unbelievable that there is not an updated itinerary. I am very suspicious of the D.C's as I used to always get mine from Torrance and now I get them from North Highlands ( Sacramento ). I always check the DVD sleeve and it always say N. Highlands. Therefore they are not being redistributed. What happened to Torrance. Without word from J.F what else can I conclude?JMHO
Flux,
If that is the case a ton of our investors money was just flushed down the toliet and the least J.F could do is make some kind of statement; wasn't the ideas to sell that channel and use if for free advertising at the top of the hour? What options are left now for any national advertising?
Wayne,
How do I find it on the web-site?
Thanks,
Alstocks_98,
Thanks for the upadate, however I would hardly call that a slight change to the website. It appears GNFENT is gone which is a massive change of direction for the company. If it has been discontinued all that money pumped into all those programs and consultants has just been flushed down the crapper and we no longer have programs to sell which was supposed to be one of GNF's strengths. Add that to the fact that the bus tour stops at July 28th and we are all getting our DVD's from different D.C's than we used to and I think things are looking very grim. I am wondering if certain D.C's have been closed due to cost cutting and we have not been told? Would be nice to have some firm information instead of always having to guess about the the f--k is going on over there in Fleming land. JMHO
Which broker are you using?
I am trying to buy 5 million at .0002 but so far no luck through Scottrade. Maybe tomorrow???
For anyone who likes to gamble this is IT. I am loading up at this level and loving every second of it. Everyone things I am an idiot so I have nothing to lose now; if by some miracle GnF can pull it off I will definitely have the last laugh and never work another day of my life...if GnF fails then I lost and so be it. I am buying these shares with my eyes wide open and will only have to look in a mirror to see who is to blame.
Point of the post...this is now gambling pure and simple. All those who still do DD are just wasting their time in my opinion. It is now a roll of the dice and the odds are firmly in the houses favor...and I love it!
Look at it this way. America was still a very young country at the time of the Civil War and many of the soldiers on both sides will have been fresh of the boat from Ireland ( there're both Irish actors ), Britain and Europe; so there will have been all kinds of accents flying around at that time and not the American accents that you know today! Hopefully that will persuade you to watch what looks like one of those raw, gritty Westerns that portrays what the West was really like.
I am going to rent if from Blockbuster as it is a must see movie for me!
Movie Gallery is getting destroyed by Blockbuster and Netflix. They are supposed to be starting their own online service but I cannot see how they could afford it, as they cannot pay their debts now! As they also offer Games through Game Crazy why not buy out Gameznflix which is already an existing service but does not have the cash to go big time. The timing could not be more perfect as they both appear to really need each other. Just a thought as I ponder the future for Gameznflix and wonder how they will ever break out of the small business mode? JMHO
There seems to be no rhyme or reason to the films they stock or do not stock. I am very disappointed that they do not have Seraphim Falls or The Last Confederate.
Yes, if you read my earlier post of the day they no longer have a queue for films they do not have - " titles on order or not released" which in my opinion is a good thing.
Can only hope and pray J.F. follows through on all this. Inventory does have to be the next priority. I am not a Gamer so I have no idea what is missing but they are missing a lot of good films.
Prof,
I agree. I have films in my availible queue which have also been there forever. They must only have a very few copies of certain titles. Still, I am thankful that the other change has been made. The web-site is getting better and better. I have to believe at some point we are going to have a national advertising campaign. What is the point of making all the improvements otherwise? Holter said J.F. had alluded to something big in September. I am keeping the Faith for now! JMHO
Big change on the web-site which is going to make a lot of people happy. My " Titles on order or not released " queue has been cleaned out. I went back into the DVD search and looked for a couple that I really wanted to see e.g. Seraphim Falls and The Last Confederate - they came up in the search, however, the rent button had a faded colour to it. When I clicked on it for both films a box appeared that said " This title is not currently available for rental".
This shows J.F. is still listening and making positive changes. I know we have all been complaining for a long time that you can have a film on order forever and it is never added to the queue. I am sure there was a huge amount of churn due to this. Well at least now they are being honest and saying we just don't have it to rent. I think this is a big improvement and the transparency should hopefully reduce the churn rate. What does anyone else think?
Wick or Agent,
Could you clarify for me what you are talking about? I am completely lost.
Thanks!
Holter,
I agree, and that is why being an investor in this stock is so painful. Despite all the diversions of the last three years this company still has massive potential. Will it ever be realized? That is the million dollar question?
Like most longs I have too much invested to walk away. This stock has literally become an obsession for me and judging by the posts I read alot of other people as well. We just keep hoping and praying that despite himself, J.F. will eventually get it right. He is literally making peanuts now compared to what he would make if this company succeeded.
Come on J.F...it's time to make some REAL money! JMHO
Quizzy,
That is the article I read. The wave is there to ride the next four years. If J.F. can finally get it right we will all be extremely wealthy. I know it's a big IF? With Moroch pulling the strings we may have a chance. I am buying when I can and enjoying the game!
Good luck to us all!
I read yesterday that Gaming is set to explode the next four year through 2011 due to the new consoles and games coming out. That is why Moroch got involved and that is why I still have hope!
I know it is an extemely long shot, however, I am still buying whenever I can though I do not have as much to invest as I used to. I was pondering my investment the other day and wondering why I continue to believe; came to the conclusion that I like to gamble and unlike the casino where my money is gone for good, my money is still in play here every business day. Like a house there is only the buying price and the selling price that matters and in between maybe a crazy roller coaster ride.
Gameznflix is driving me nuts ( that would be mental, as I still have no idea what" nuts" William keeps refering to ), but oh what a beautiful gamble it is...that is why I still hold and keep buying when I can. JMHO
Really appreciate you sharing the facts of your conversation with J.F In the end as Wayne says, we have to have some Faith. If it is misplaced then it will be an expensive lesson learnt, however, your conversation with J.F has given me some renewed optimism. As they say, it is always darkest before the dawn!
Glad to hear that. There were other statements that led many to invest such as break even at 15,000 subscribers. I remember that very clearly!
