I'm constantly thinking Madiaba is female. Sorry Mad if you're not :frown:

:O  :ban_smily:

Mad has a wife! And children!
Title: Re: BOTM May 2010

While it is possible, I highly doubt Mad being a woman.

Before I joined, I used to think you were female as well :embarr

Well, an email address of loulou doesn't help.

...Now i don't feel like laughing at all.

Hehe, I is not a female.  And I understand the feminine 'a'-suffix thingy, since Greek and Latin are the same...
Actually 'madiaba' is a Bantu word from Swahili (half Arabic + half Bantu).  It's meaning is an inside joke with a colleague, (look it up for yourself if you want).
 
 BOT, please...

It says it only does .png and .jpg, is that just an out of date piece of text?

LOL I had the idea since I first joined.. but it was never allowed.... I didnt bother bugging ACAMS as I figured file-size would be an issue

but if he is prepared 2mb... thats cool  :mrgreen:

You have a 33.3333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333% chance maybe even a few more 3's, but it wont change much unless we get another entry, then your chances drop to 25.000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000%
