No...just the first two versions of this message board crashed horribly on me after a while...once I moved to vBulletin, I didn't have anymore problems...
All the early posts from the first year or two were lost...

Yes, that's where Scoop Cone gave us the Key to Winning and then it was lost.

And a very special THANK YOU goes out to all the great people who have helped me through the years, for free I might add, because I'm a cheap bastard.
cj, BillW, Jay Trotter, Track Collector, eddy1, Buddah (where are you?), and all the rest who have ever helped moderate a contest or a forum...you guys are the best!!! |
Ah just hitting the peak of puberty. Things ought to really get crazy now

Happy birthday to the site that pisses on all other gambling sites as well as all other social media..........it's the only forum you can get any answer you want from the well informed members!!!!
You know it's good when check what's going on here before I go on Facebook to see what's going on in people's lives I've know for 30 years

Great job Mike! 
Got to the party late but the last 9 years have proven to me that this is the absolute best players forum on the web!

Not a lot sites last 14 years, it takes a lot of hard work and dedication from both the site and its members. Congrats to everyone involved.

Great Job, Mike. Just think, without this board what would half the poster do at work. Just kidding!  This board has been a God-sent in my retirement. I hope it goes forever. Thanks Mike

I can attest to the "cheap bastard" comment! I think my wage would amount to less than what those Apple workers in China earn!
Seriously though, congrats on 14 years. That's a good run, especially in a basically non-profit racket like this.

I remember when you started the board....I think I've re-registered at least twice over the years, for whatever reason, I can't recall.
I love all you guys, I've come to know some really great friends on here.

14 years??!!?? Good God. I hope you make it a 1000 more while we all turn into Cyborg/machine handicappers. As long as the horses are flesh and blood....
