Well, it has been a year since I posted this on the boards:

happy 2002! hopefully this will be a great year for dosgames.com not to mension this is the first post for 2002. cheers!

And indeed, it was a good year. We went from 3 to 125 users. We went from a text and basic HTML only board which was on one page to a nice, organized one. We even got a few website updates from Emmzee this time around!

I went from being a relitive newbie on the website to a Administrator. A lot of people started posting. The ~1,400 lurkers continue to lurk, the posters continue to post, Nanobot continues to be Nanobot by posting a message just as you start to think he's left... in fact I would say the only bad thing that has really happened is Ally's departure.

In any case, party on dudes! I managed to get a bottle of champaign in and have more than enough movies+chips to keep me going 'til 6 o'clock tomorrow morning!

BTW: First person to post after 12:00 EST (New York time) gets forever placed in my hall of fame for being the first to post this year.

I usually stay up late, so I'll just leave the post window open.

Yeah, but they get the #1 saddest person award for being on the computer when they should be outside making noise!

But that wasn't BAD, though. That was entertaining and fun, annoying as he was.

I suppose I could always get my BB gun out, and start firing shots into the air

Nope. TD lives on St. Cruz (-4 hours Greenwitch) which is an hour ahead of NY (-5 hours Greenwitch) meaning he posted at 11:07 PM December 31 2002. Therefore, the first person to post this year is John The Ax at 12:09 EST.
