Happy New Year!

Post by Lady Nerevar »

Exteriors and most of the Interiors were claimed, and we produced many excellent pieces of concept art. Several quests were created, and Map 1 NPCs were completely redone. Our object database was also completed and converted into .esm form. Special thanks goes out to Garfield, both for hosting us and for paying for the domain name. For those of you who have not yet been with us for a year, and for those who are too drunk to remember it, here is a quick timeline of the passing year.

Now onto '06! The firts major event of the New Year will be the switch to a closed community. The switch will start on Jan 1. The forums will be divided into Public (for general Members) and Private (for TR Modders), along with the removal of the dreaded warning bar, the Bolt Ons forum, and the screening process. TR moders will be Core, Reviewers, most Honorary Members, as well as those who applied and were accepted. If you still haven’t applied, don’t worry! The TR Modder Status Tryouts thread is still open, so feel free to apply for Modder status.

Finally, Enjoy your New Year! Don’t get too drunk, cause you’ll feel terrible tomorrow. Hope to see you back soon!

Yay! Happy New Year everyone! Looking over that timeline has reminded me of a lot of stuff that's happened this year, like the crash of Friday the 13th, I'd forgotten that was way back in May! I feel like I'm getting older :P

Does anybody have any New Year's resolutions?

The same as ever, I will work harder!
It sort of revolves around everything you do, so I like it.
Anyone else have some good resolutions?

My resolution is to at least TRY to stop sucking at life. :-P
my grades are pretty abysmal, so that's priority 1, or should be at least. I'm pretty sure that it'll be a broken resolution.

Oh, and TR-Wise, my resolution is to be as active as possible when oblivion comes out - I actually hope to make the claim map, if possible.

It's already being made, so unlukcy on that one.

Erm, I don't make resolutions, but getting a new monitor would certainly improve it.

Well, it's been a couple days, but happy new year, everyone, all the same. Looking back, I can already tell it'll be another happy year, even though maybe not the luckiest one I've had - I lost in all games I've played so far ;)

My NYE resolution is to shag more, worry less and keep smoking.

Hope everyone had a wacky party - I'm still cleaning up the house and it's the 3rd!

Happy New Year!

I, on the other hand, decided to stop smoking. Well, to stop smoking sigarets that is. :wink:

It's quite hard, but you only realise that when you stop.
