    I've been thinking, we need to set aside a day for an international holiday celebrating SP and roleplaying games in general.
    So how about it? When would we have it? what kind of traditions would we have? Would there be presents? Maybe just cards? Lights? Costumes? Special food? Cupcakes?

    Thou stole my idea! :p

    I was thinking about this a few months ago, but never posted anything. This morning I thought about it again. What a coincedence.

    Anyhow, SP deserves a special holiday*. The most logical day would be when SP started. It would be kind of a SP anniversary.


    *No guarantee you get the day off from work or school.

    I forgot about that. We could claim its a religious holiday and need it off otherwise we'd sue! Just think, we could all meet in the chatroom at once to celebrate too!

    Ooh! A religious holiday... the worshippers of Taluntain, eh?

    I wonder if the chatroom can hofld up to the strain of 5000+ people in there?

    (Yes, I know only a fraction of us post but still... in theory! :p )

    I don't really remember the exact date. It'd be pretty hard to pinpoint considering that when it started SP was much different... End of September 1999 or so, I think.

    good idea!

    I really doubt Chatroom would be able to support all the masses. However I havent a clue about chatrooms so feel free to correct me.


    Otherwise, mIRC is always an option.
