Alright, I have mentioned before that whenever i rent NHL2002 from my local blockbuster, it freezes during play.. but i always cave and rent it again thinking they got a new copy when i tell them its ****ed... well... i flipped out this time... i noticed the Disc Sheild was a little peeled up...
well, a thread that was pointless i posted earlier about the XBOX help line relates to this... i phoned them to ask about the freezing and such, feeding them info about when and how and such.. well... they gave me the harddrive format code etc.. but i didnt do it instead they told me to delete all my NHL 2002 saved files (something which i never did... slipped my mind) ... didnt work.. still froze!!!!!!!!
i told the guy it didnt help, he asked if it was a rental... i said yes... he asked if they put a cover on it... i said yes... he told me that the cover can potentially harm the XBOX and such, the added weight, the potential un-evenness of the sheild could harm the XBOX... all understandable... he expressed his concerns of using the sheilded disc... i expressed my concerns of taking it off (they supposuidley make you pay for the game)
here is where i get in trouble!! :
i took off the disc sheild (ahhhh) put in the game to see if it would help... IT GOT STUCK IN MY XBOX! THE TRAY WOULDNT OPEN TO LET ME GET THE GAME OUT! i was worried ****less.... thanks to the amazing XBOX design, i was able to use a pin to make the XBOX spit out its disc... YAY... i noticed the reason it got stuck... little glue dabs from the disc sheild (understandable)
now what I need to do... get rid of the little glue stains so it will spin in the XBOX correctly... so what I need some of you great people to help me think...
1) How to fix the game disc (get rid of the glue sticky ****)
2) Ways to convince Blockbuster i HAD to take off the sheild (yeah that means lie to them)
-------------
I rented it today... so i have until thrusday/friday or maybe a bit later ( i dont mind a couple days late considering my circumstances ) .... so i need your help guys! I am counting on the vets here (maxy, ninja, mods, smart people) whatever! there is no way I am paying Blockbuster for them ****ing up games in the first place (adding disc sheilds)
-------------
Another thing i would like to add is I want to encourage everybody that rents from a blockbuster video that puts disc sheilds on their games to write a letter to the blockbuster store, and a letter to BlockBuster Canada/America's main building whereever it may be in your area and TELL THEM TO REMOVE THEIR DISC SHEILDS! TELL THEM THEY ARE HARMING YOUR XBOX! If we work together and spread this words... maybe we can make an impact

Ok, I'm rambling... number 1.. HELP ME OUT PLEASE!
