    i didn't either, it just looked like teh only market with a bit of value for the game,
    looking good so far, 70 mins 0 subs, I expect a load in the last 10 mins tho lol!!

    Edit:Birmingham sub straight away ha

    was the first chance i got to post on here, sure i'll change the starting balance seeing as 2 people aren't happy about it!

    Edit: it won't let me change it now for some reason,must be too much time has passed
