IMPORTANT SITE NOTICE - The END TIMES are here!

Heh what an idiot, there’s not going to be a space program in the future

As another long-time lurker and occasional poster (I was there back on the blog), I approve this decision. If the new format for the site can really break this place out of its clubhouse cliquishness, I might even post more.

Wait, we have POINTS??!

You didn't know that?

Minus 5 points for Gryffindor!

Sevej, you probably have enough by now to get the metal detector or the RC car. Talk to Shellie about redemption.

I’ve traded mine in on x-ray glasses. Three times.

Wow! That URL changed fast!

Sounds great!

The rules regarding language in the forum aren't changing. Don't put curse words in thread subjects, because it gets the site blocked at people's work. Posts and comments that are judged NSFW or get the site blocked will get moved to Bitchfest.

Important question... at the new site can we make dick jokes?

Pirate walks into a bar. Bartendender says "excuse me, looks like you have a ships wheel in your trousers." Pirate replies, "Aye, its drivin me nuts"

I have been checking out this site since 2010 or so (coincides with my move to LA). What originally brought me was the reviews and I stayed for the forums. I am a big fan of Barnes game reviews specifically. so anything that brings more of that is great. Also would echo the sentiment that driving fresh people to the party and breaking up the clubhouse vibe might be a good thing.

The redirect isn't working at the moment, well not this side of the pond, as I just lost the site on a page refresh and then had to remember what the new name was

I'm also going to be contributing regular content to TWBG, and I couldn't be more excited about it. We have a regular Murderer's Row of writers here, including a couple who I think can really drive traffic here.

I had to take down the redirect for a while to find an old, forgotten, hard coded redirect that was causing an infinate loop. Should work now.

Hard-coded IP addresses is the bane of my life (server infrastructure management) with our developers, why would they want to use a nasty DNS record for their mail server reference when it is much easier to type in an IP address in their code .... then they frakking moan to us a few years later when all their apps email stop after we upgrade the mail server environment.
Rant over ... stop triggering me like that, please be nice so I don't call you names.

'There will be Games' eh?

There'd better be games!
