Updates to Subsim history page, ideas?

Onkel Neal · 10-06-20, 11:08 AM

So, apparently it's been 4 years since I updated the site history page, I am looking for suggestions about noteworthy news and updates, such as:

Things related to Subsim
significant mods (with a link)
game news that is associated with Subsim
forum developments, who did something interesting
etc

thanks!
Neal

I was going to suggest Wolfpack, then checked the section

The 2018 Das Boot?

Texas Red · 10-06-20, 04:26 PM

Fall of the Rising Sun Ultimate release:
https://www.subsim.com/radioroom/dow...o=file&id=5572

In my opinion the most significant SH4 mod released.

There is a history page?

Onkel Neal · 11-24-20, 06:54 PM

You don't get out much, eh?

Embarrassing enough, my bookmarks go directly to the forums.

I keep forgetting that there is a lot more to subsim then just reading whiny posts.

Onkel Neal · 11-24-20, 07:17 PM

Lol, no worries, probably 93% of the traffic goes directly to the mods section

I can't see anyone of you have mentioned a very specific event in the history of Subsim.

I'm talking about the famous trial against Drebbel(I think it was his nickname)

Thanks, Markus! That is in Nov 2004, I believe.

Quote:

Nov. 2004 -- In the days before Silent Hunter III was released, everyone was speculating wildly on the SH3 release date. One November fine day, Subsim members saw a thread that said: New release date for SHIII. It was a clever hoax by Drebbel (especially the part where he said "Haha, got you" ). Subsim skippers formed a lynch mod and we kicked off a trial for Drebbel. Sailor Steve was Drebbel's defense lawyer, Hitman was the judge, JJ was the prosecutor, Torplexed was the court reporter, Neal was the bailiff, and Codmander and several others served as witnesses. The hoax thread by Drebbel that started it all: New release date for SHIII The Trial Proceedings Thread: Trial for Drebbel The Spectator's Gallery, including the art by court reporter Torplexed: Drebbel's punishment for behaving badly, **Spectator Gallery Sailor Steve's Press Conf: PRESS CONFERENCE!

This is what I have so far. Kinda sad that I let this section fall apart, but to be fair to me, I was managing a lot in RL, plus a 60 hour work week since 2016.

I recommend recognition of when a separate US politics forum was started and enforced. Made it easy to ignore those posts.

Made GT a little better
