Well, the dog days of summer are here. That big, burning globe that most of us pasty white geeks shun is doing it's worst, trying to catch us off guard and fry us like bacon. But we know better - we hide inside, basking in the cold glow of our oversized LED screens, living in a world not too far from our bathroom.
But I digress.
As a point of note, our most recent recruit, Supreme Commander Exedor, is rockin' the forum, with over 8 posts per day on average! GameJunkie is another heavy hitter, and between these two, nothing is slipping through the cracks. Well done, indeed! *Salutes*
And let's congratulate Asandir, who just ranked up to General - and well deserved, at that.
Finally, let's not forget our lovable and curmudgeonly Coop, who is quietly regaining his stance as a continual top point leader, and being a shining example of what we're all about - speak softly, but carry a big, honkin' stick!
It was a good month, and I see that, as a group, we are doing better despite the swings in the Portal. "Wars may come and go, but my soldiers are eternal" (to quote a current-day urban poet)
So, without further adieu (which is French for "bullshit") I present:
