When I first came here, about 6 and a half months ago, it was still below 1500 pages, so... yeah, pretty popular :smirk:

It's mostly just, wow, this thing is almost 5 years old. We started at 50 bob-ombs I believe...also, thread has been updated.

Oh hey, the person we owe thanks to for creating this thread posted. I didn't think I'd ever see you post here again. :p "bows"

Yeah, this thread's remained one of the more popular forum games. The most, in fact. It's gotten to the point where most of the regulars use it as a social thread, more than the actual forum games social.

I remember back when there were dozens of these games, new threads were made just to one-up the previous ones. It was good times. I guess this one got so big mods just kept updating the title

EDIT

Back to the good old times

I enjoy the challenge of 300.

Also I helped break the record twice considerably. I'd list everyone else who I can remember helping out in those times (I have in the past) but I'm too lazy at the moment to go look for/type them down, lol.

I like to think I've been most consistent regular here, at least since October 2013 when I found this thread. For a while it was pretty much just me and @ Metalbro Metalbro counting here, other members would only stop by occasionally.

I could go on about how this thread's little community of regulars grew and developed.

I honestly can't remember the last time I regularly posted, must have been 3 or 4 years ago to be honest. I'm glad it's grown into a little community though!

I can't wait for the day when we'll be surpassing 500 in no time. If I posted like I used to when I was in school, we'd constantly be surpassing 300. Nowadays I probably post here about 10-15 times a day

Let's see....

I found this thread and it as mostly just me and Metal counting for at time. Falkoopa was also a regular, but I only lurked in this thread for quite some time. By the time I had finally posted, Fal had been given the position as a moderator. Another user who doesn't visit here anymore joined in and helped the two of us break 200. It was a good day, all three of us became good friends with each other around that time too.

Some time came by, and two other uses showed up: MisterVideoGaming and lonekonwolf. With more regulars, there came to be more social talk, random fun, and it became easier to reach higher numbers. The result was this thread slowly evolving into a social thread for the forum games, as we all got along well with each other in addition to having our common goal of counting to 200/300 in this thread. We'd talk about a lot of things or just mess around with silly little RPs often. Eventually, over the course of a few days, all of the previously mentioned regulars, along with PATH O__o and Frostwraith counted to 526, with me being the one to hit that number and ultimately break the number, and soon we reached 613. The thread really began to pick up after that. One of my friends viewed me as a leader, of something called "Team Phantom" to be specific.

Things took a different change though. The user you now know as Fluttershy was a long time forum games regular, but he frequented this thread more in particular once I announced that I had become a brony. :p Keyblade found this place after that happened.

Apart from that, things pretty much remained the same for this thread from that point on for several months up until December, when Jay found this place.

Is there more or was that the general gist of it?

I probably forgot a few fairly notable things, but that's the general gist of it.

During Frost's time as a moderator he was viewed as the almighty evil overlord of this thread, and he ruled it over in a long and cruel reign. All of us regulars had fun joking about that though, lol

Oh yes, I forogt Dimsionsword found this place at some point last year and was a regular for a few good months. Around that time, avatar bets started to become a thing, thanks to MVG and Kon. A few of us felt like this thread could be made a little more interesting with something, and they had the perfect ideas for it.

Dimensionsword is the one who praised us with Dorabro for the very first time.

I'm also forgetting that CyanideOxide started frequented this place around last year, too.

Must've been a lot of fun. Too bad I wasn't here :urg:

Makes me wonder if a certain non-mod could have the ability to break the count in the future :lol:

I doubt that would happen anyway.

Y'know, tomorrow I'm gonna dig back through my like pages to look back at some of the more memorable times in this thread and share em' here. Don't hit like on them though, I'd rather any of us not get spammed by that on series of old posts.

I for one would like to see what travesty happens to this forum if SG became a mod.
