#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 Another year closes for the MB.What do you consider an event that characterised this year for you, Forum wise?What happened here that you want to remember, or forget as soon as possible?This can be something that happened on the MB itself, or related to the MB or John Williams (like going to a film music concert and hooking up with some other members)Stefancos- heading to Mother for his yearly dose of oliebollen en appelflappen.

Mr. Breathmask 555 Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 Off the top of my head:- The Lucasfilm invasion.- Roald's scare over WotW.- The constant scrounging for unreleased RotS material.- The board wars with MF.com and those classical folks.- Three out of four JW scores leaking early. Oh, and there was some personnel change here, apparently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin 2 Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 Is that a low point?Justin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Breathmask 555 Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 You want to see a low point? I'd also add Incanus' (and others') constant stressing over the FotR release date (perhaps not an ultimate highlight, but it certainly was entertaining ), and Joe's very touching and personal post when his partner died (still thinking of you, Joe, hope you're well).I'd have to think of stuff that happened earlier on in this year.

John McClane 1 Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 - Roald's scare over WotW.Definitely that was great!Also, some fun came form that dude who wanted to turn us into a bunh of Tom Petty fans...One of the bad things, the disappearing of John Crichton, one of the funniest members.

Romão 2,274 Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 It was surprising, but I wouldn't call it a low point, apart from the fact in coincided with his companion's unfortuante death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John McClane 1 Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 In fact I didn't call it "low point", but shoking. The death of his companion was sad, but his revelation was a very surprising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John McClane 1 Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 The fact is that I was sure he had a wife and two sons. I'm sure he wrote that somewhile, now I realize he was joking. Of course I too don't know him. Nobody does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted December 31, 2005 Author Share Posted December 31, 2005 No, not in the very least, Joe is still Joe.But the death of his friend is definatly the low point for me this year.The high point was meeting hitch in Amsterdam.Funnily enough both events happened in the space of a single week.Other points of interest:Change of Moderation. (Marc is doing well, though he to damn soft!)The return of Roald and all the fanboy hysterics that came along with it.A record number of Star Wars related threads.AlexCremers warming up to me (or am I just imagining this)Ren dissapearing almost completely. (damn women always pull this crap on me!)Mirko.The staggering number of posts done by me, most of them I can't even remember.ROTS MP3's leaking and causing a frenzy.

Trent B 337 Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 I think for me the highlight of this year has definitely been the leaking of Revenge Of The Sith score a month before it's release and of course the 'leaking' of the unreleased material from the games. Of course there's also me being banned for one week. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted December 31, 2005 Author Share Posted December 31, 2005 People losing their minds over mediocre quality MP3's a looong time before the film and the score is officially released, making the MB almost impossible to visit for people who wish to remain uninformed for the time being.Another low point.People here being personally offended by Patrick Doyle and his GOOD score for the 4th Potter film.Despite the fact that Williams chose not to score that film.

Lurker 5 Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 Steef calling me at work pretending to be George Lucas was certainly a highlight of this past year.Johnnyecks got married this year and hopefully this board was a big part of getting him a free wedding and a paid honeymoon in the Bahamas.

The mediocre (as you put it) quality of the Mp3's did bother me a bit but I didn't loose my mind over it. I was glad to hear the score early before I saw the film. Made me appreciate it even more. I was all ready spoiled with the spoilers but I can see where it was a bit un-nerving to try to avoid the threads if you weren't spoiled with the spoilers from MF and other places as well as with the score. If that made sense... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There seemed to be only three of us awake at the time the Shore news broke. If you look at that original thread, it's the same people posting back and forth for about 3 hours. It got so lonely here that we invaded the JNH board to get more involved. LOL Good times....Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
