Hey guys, I have been slacking and I need some help filling in the years 2013, 2014, and 2015. If you think of anything noteworthy that happened in Subsim, please post. No, there have not been any April Fools jokes since 2009 or so. When was LOL Boot?

Anything? Meaning what? Subsim in general or General Topic's?

Here's one: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=204774

Red October's "The movie thread" :up:

Well, meaning anything, I guess. I found LOLBoot, that was 2011. So, anything means stuff like the stuff listed here http://www.subsim.com/ssr/ssr_history.html

I will add the Best ofs, and Subsim TeamSpeak, note the passing of Laufen, the revival of DEF....any really significant mods.... that kind of stuff.

I should keep this up monthly, I used to, but there's so much to do, so many emails to answer and PMs, and people who want me to referee their arguements, which sometimes I start, etc. lol, a lot of stuff to keep up with, and maybe some of you will remember some cool stuff that happened here.:yep:

He means things that are important. One thread, no matter how good, is not an important event in the life of SubSim itself.

Cool stuff? I believe Betonov became our resident Ghurka-level Khukiri Knife Master in 2015. :)

But after his one true love he found in York....

Other than Jim, that is. :03:

There was also the two Subsim 'A World At War' matches, I think the first was around 2008, and the second about a year or so later. I have no idea where they've disappeared to though or I'd link them.

True. There was another attack earlier this year, but the Red Alert Team crushed it pretty quick.

And there was Frau Kaleun's 'Buying a House' thread, which I consider the greatest of all. Still not an event in the life of SubSim.

I'd add the 100 Years Ago Today thread into that category.

Agreed, another noteworthy thread. Thanks and thanks, I will start updating now.
