Hello, after looking at some old posts and clicking a few links, I decided that we should form a history of armor games.

Would the greatest, oldest, and most worthy step forward to help in the quest of knowledge? The bounty will be plentiful.

The coming and going of our friends and acquaintances would be cool, although the mods would lock it for discussing users, even if it's in a good light -.-

*sigh*

I've only been part of the community since july or so, and I only knew of AG a month or so before that.
TSL3, I understand your point, but if we talk to them, maybe they would have respect for lost friends, for important people in the history of AG.

I think some of the Mods would really enjoy that.

No, but I did come here once or twice when it was nothing but a list of games.

I started playing armorgames a little after it changed names, due to prince of war...(battle of gondor)

Sadly, no. You can't really discuss anyone without the mods getting relatively unhappy, but you might ask about it.

I wonder what constitutes important people, though. Some could argue one or two people are more important than these one or two people. Some could say, for instance, I am more important than the_manta, even though I might have a different say on it, even if it involved me.

Hopefully Manta won't kill me for using him as an example >>.>>

Why would people want to know the history of armorgames? O.O
Just read the armorblog or the news...

TSL3, when I started thinking about this thread, I was thinking about how people argue, and that very point came to mind.
So, I decided that the thread would be each people's representation of the history of AG, and how each person felt about it. And maybe, probably not, but just maybe we could combine those accounts into one solid history of AG.
I made this thread out of shear respect for others, so anything anyone does here represents me and what I did. I'm the bottle opener, and if someone's soda was shaken up, then let it fizz down before you drink it here.

Does anyone think the mods should make an all time top one hundred users? And btw, who was #1 before firetail? i seem to remember is was a select few who kept trading places.
