 |
|
I just realized that May 11 2006 was the date that Arcade Boss came into existence! That means May 11th of this year was its 5th anniversary!
Happy 5th birthday, Arcade Boss! May there be another happy 5 years for this awesome site! Maybe ArcadeBoss or some of the older members who registered back in 2006 like Joe.Boxer or Miss Priss could tell us what this site was like back then and how it has changed and improved over the years? |

I can't believe it's already been so long. I've been a member of this site for well over 4 years now, and I can say that this site has changed so much.
When I first joined, the sites background was white or something, and it looked WAY different. There was no BOTM tournaments or TOTM, I don't even think POTM existed. There was only one tournament, Game of the month. Arcadeboss would select a game, and the people who placed at the top of the list would earn money at the end of the month.
Also, not to long after I joined (and when botm was created), Pimpin101 + Nitestalker + Me would battle it out for the BOTM contest along with many others.
I really can't believe this site has been up for so long, I'm proud of AB and hope he will continue to run this site for as long as he can. Also, without for such a great community here, this site may not still exist.
Thanks to Everyone for making this possible.

For the record, players get paid for getting enough TOP scores on games. Players don't get paid for JUST playing the games as 2nd place in a game doesn't get you anything! 
We don't post on forms because if we did it would feel more like doing surveys. We do get prizes for being a top poster at the end of the month though.
Please do proofread your messages BEFORE you post them. |

When one considers how fast many sites shut down I would guess that it would be more like 1 year equals 6 months.

So would it be accurate to say that 5 years in real time would equal to 10 years in cyberspace time?  |

Wouldn't 5 years = 2.5 years, not 10 |

Based on what I said I'm not certain I understand how you figured it would equal 10 years?
