The Town of Odyssey Turns Nine!

Post by Catspaw »

Everyone,

I am pleased to announce that the ToO has offically turned nine! \:D/

It's hard to believe that it has been so long since Shadowpaw started this amazing board! Every year it gets more unbelievable that the ToO has been around for so many years. We're only one year short of a decade - that's almost as long as some of our members have been alive. :shock: Join me in celebrating nine wonderful years of amazing ToOness! They have all been filled with awesomeness. :yes:


The statistics below prove that there are a lot of dedicated ToOers who love to post! \:D/ This year we hit a million posts! :mad:

Number of posts: 1000757
Posts per day: 304.47
Number of topics:28828
Topics per day: 8.77
Number of users: 1279
Users per day: 0.39


Thanks to Dan for providing his traditional special anniversary surprise! Click here to see the thread that contains all the images of the construction process. Don't let the smileys down after all their hard work - go take a look!

I'm including Dan's description in the spoiler tag below. Try to figure it out for yourself first! \:D/
Because the ToO is getting so old, some of our members are getting old, so I decided to build a retirement home for old ToOers. \:D/
I laughed...because it was true. ;) Sign me up and move me in!


If you would like to read past anniversary threads, they are all archived in City Hall. You won't be able to post in them, but feel free to peruse past celebrations! Click the following links if you're interested: 1st 2nd 3rd 4th 5th 6th 7th 8th

The time has come to end the Town of Odyssey and evole into something new and fresh. I present you the new way to enjoy Odyssey content on a more free site that offers you the most fun The Town Hall

The Town Hall has it all, Odyssey, Cats, and human jukeboxes, which are midgets dressed as Kanye West that sing whatever you want when you put a quarter in its ear.

One Rule. No Catspaw. She is bad for the internet as a whole. This forum will be free and for the people by the people to do what they want. Unless it involves Catspaw. Then its bad and the people are wrong. So no posting Catspaw stuff on it. I mean it. No coup either please.


The Town Hall for brighter and funnier future.

At first it does seem amazing that we’ve lasted this long, but really it’s not. It’s because of the amazing people we have here! :D

I came in here to celebrate the ToO's ninth birthday, but now I'm convinced that Catspaw is a horrible and deceitful person and I plan on joining up with Bmuntz over at the Town Hall. Who asked for a "town of odyssey" forum anyways? :noway:

Welcome to your new life. You will not regret this choice. You will be made a mod and get to choose the name of a new sub-forum.

You two deserve each other. :noway: Lies! All lies! Mostly lies, at the very least! :x

Bookworm is right that the great people on the ToO are what has brought us to nine years of existence! Yay! \:D/

Who am I? I'd rather not answer that question, the real question is, "Who are you?". Right now I am trying to think of something witty to put here.. I might not find anything, but that's fine. This block of text should be fine for a signature. Wait, are you still reading this? Why are you reading this? Stop. Seriously.
STOP.
This sentence is true.
The sentence above is false.

I dare you not to read this.
Hey! I said not to read this.
Maybe if I talk like this.
Wait, you still see me? *sighs* I give up.
