Author Topic: Fungi Forums 2003: A year in review (Read 5347 times)

2003 was a year of changes in the Fungi Forums and TMK. We saw several new members join, such as.. well there's too many to list. We also saw older members return. There were happy moments, such as the 2000th and 3000th posts in the Mario Bar and Mario Word association, and sad moments such as the parting of Watoad, and the news of Axem Green's (AKA Tony Hinneman. Don't shoot me if I spelled his name wrong) death.

There was the start of my club/ restaurant, The Circle, the start of Club '86, and several other memorable moments. One I forgot was one of the greatest Mario fanfics ever, "the Prophecy" was introduced by Sapphira. Another great fic was Insane Steve's "The third attempt" Then, there were my colossal flops, "The fight for Freedom", and "The Mushroom Kingdom Conquest"

All in all, it was a great year for the Fungi forums. Feel free to post any tidbit or event that I forgot.

And now you know, the rest of the story.

It was also a great year since the chatroom for #tmk premiered, Mario Kart: Double Dash!! and Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga came out too. 0h, and I joined the forums too. THat's a big thing. =D

I believe it was "Club 86'".

Hm, this is, what, my second year here...maybe more? Feh, I've lost track of how long I've been here, but, I must say, this year has been the most enjoyable one so far. This due, mainly, because of the great members who've been around. I won't name names, mostly because I'd forget people, but I would like to thank those people for making last year a great one.

I should have mentioned the chatroom. Last year was also great because I came onto the scene. Not trying to sound vain, but I probably did.

And now you know, the rest of the story.

Yeah, it would be nice, organized, and ready to read if SOMEONE WOULD HAVE UPDATED THE ACTIVE MEMBER LIST like requested many time by some posters, including me.

I'd like to name some of the good friends I've made thanks to the forums....

Sapphira, Chupperson, Trainman, King Boo (Pink King Boo), Lizard Dude, Luigi~lover.

Yes. The Fungi Forums are a wonderful place.

Don't forget about the addition of HTML.

I wrote this about 12:50 this morning, so I missed quite a few things.

And now you know, the rest of the story.

I did a yay SPAM thing a few months ago where I yayed in lots of threads.

That was one of the low points of the year.

And now you know, the rest of the story.

SO?

Also, Mario started dancing in his pants, which he made backwards.

At the end of the year, I started posting my "Anti Oven Mitt" and "Anti Yugioh" stories. Speaking of which, I just posted a pretty funny and sick Yugioh death story in the Anti Yugioh thread.

And now you know, the rest of the story.

Yes, 2003 has been a great year! You all have been so good to me, if only I could repay you all in some way....

Thank-you Meowrik

! You have been a wonderful friend! Thank-you everyone! Let's hope 2004 will be fun!

Sorry to change the subject but, I might not be here as often for some time. I injured my hand in hockey, and it makes it very hard for me to type. But hopefully I'll be back soon, but for now, good bye everyone and happy new year!
