Dunenewt Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Following on from previous topics about this site, and how it is 10 years old, I was just wondering why we haven't had any birthday celebrations. In light of this, I am proposing a belated FED2k birthday bash, to take place in the Summer. On this day, the Second Emperor Landsraad tournament will commence, we will have lots of new Dune news, as well as interviews, and major updates on the Dune Editing scene. We can get everyone on the chatroom, try and coax some of the old timers back for the day, such as Gunwounds, Emprworm, Navaros, Ken, Doc Nyar, etc. On this day, the winner of the logo competition can also be announced too. So what d'ya all think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Not a bad idea to have an eventful day/week.Hopefully there will be a demo of battle for dune as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D2k Sardaukar Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Speaking about Glob, where does he fit in this '10 year happy birthday' spirit? I hardly see him posting on the subject. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khan Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 He's busy. Very busy.Besides I think the majority of his involvement is paying for and maintaining the servers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mahdi Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Gob's away for a couple weeks. He still reads every message posted on these forums, even if he doesn't reply much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exatreide Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 who doesn't need a drunken liberal gun totting combat medic around in each party? whoo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dante Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 ...We can get everyone on the chatroom, try and coax some of the old timers back for the day, such as Gunwounds, Emprworm, Navaros... Why does anyone want any of these people back? I mean I've seen the names crop up, and I think, "why?" All they were good for was inciting flame wars, which is not the same thing as long winded yet constructive debate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gunner154 Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 I can see much of the planning is already being done. This is a good idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunenewt Posted May 8, 2008 Author Share Posted May 8, 2008 We just need a day where everyone is free to go on the forums for as long as possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunner154 Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 This Saturday should be a good day for me, I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunenewt Posted May 8, 2008 Author Share Posted May 8, 2008 I think we should wait a bit, to see when the likes of Mahdi and Gob are free, and to see if we can get some of the old timers back for the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirby Gotenks absorbed Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 We just need a day where everyone is free to go on the forums for as long as possible.I have school on weekdays, my friend is coming over to my house on Saturday, I need to study for exams and I have two-three projects I need to do + homework... But I'm most likely to be free on Sunday or Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunenewt Posted May 10, 2008 Author Share Posted May 10, 2008 Okay fair point. I'm holding off announcing a date until I know when Mahdi and Gob are free anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunenewt Posted May 15, 2008 Author Share Posted May 15, 2008 Mahdi, when are you free? We need as many of the Staff as possible for this day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 What about having it on a weekend over a couple days? People could come and go and not need to be here at a specific time.Also I'll be gone this Friday afternoon and back Monday night. In case anyone tries to contact me.

Mahdi Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 Can't say. Make a date, I'll see if I can find some time to stop in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunenewt Posted May 17, 2008 Author Share Posted May 17, 2008 I'm thinking of a Saturday in mid June, and because of the different time zones it would spread throughout the weekend anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
