Welcome to 20 years of greatness! (Almost)

Post by Catspaw »

Hey all,

Welcome to the subforum dedicated to honouring the past twenty years of the Town of Odyssey! :party: Bookworm, Bren and I thought that such a momentous occasion warranted more than just one or two threads. Please contribute to other threads and start your own to flood the place with memories and fun. :D Whether you joined (almost) twenty years ago or just recently found out that unofficial AIO message boards where we currently mostly have non-AIO-related topics are fun, welcome to the party! \:D/

It's hard to believe that this place wasn't even 3 years old when I joined.

I feel very old when I start thinking about how I was in college when I joined the ToO, which was apparently 20 years ago. It just doesn't seem possible!

I know!!! How?!?! I was 18, and now I'm almost 40. Goodness.

Luckily, we both maintain such a youthful glow that nobody will ever guess! :yes:

Shout out to @Eugene for another fantastic logo. I love how it's a throwback but also feels somewhat modern too.

Hey everyone,

Wow, reading these posts brings back so many memories! It's incredible to think we're almost at the 20-year mark. I remember when this place was just a tiny seed of an idea, and to see it grow into this vibrant community is truly something special.

It's amazing how time flies, and how much this place has evolved. I'm so grateful to each and every one of you who have contributed to making The Too what it is today. Let's definitely keep the celebration going! Share your stories, your favourite memories, and let's flood this place with the nostalgia and fun that makes The ToO so unique.

Here's to many more years of laughter, friendship, and shared experiences!

This place was such a core part of my childhood 15(!!!) years ago, and it'll always hold a special place in my heart. Happy birthday, Too \:D/
