Heh, I got to the front page of the wiki, saw all the bright colors, and my first thought was what the f*** I'm on the wrong site.

Anyway, we're doing great with this site. Go us.

Wow, one year thats pretty cool, seems like yesterday I was visiting Luckys vb game programming site.

Well done everybody, hope we have more content to add this year, lets try to make a sort of Moores (wiki) law, with content doubling roughly every 18 months :)

WOOOHHH!!! Nice job with the graphics and such, Sion! Let's leave it up until Lucky comes back, and not tell him anything. So it'll be a surprise.

Doesn't seem like it's been that long. Is that a good thing?

Hey guys; I've got internet here in Montreal, so I thought I'd check up on the wiki... thanks for putting up the birthday page, Sion! Looks great :)

One note: That pageviews stat is way low... I disabled that feature a long time ago because it adds extra load to the server. The wiki has actually had 2259208 page views in its first year!

Anyway, a big thanks to everyone for making this whole thing possible! gpwiki has really come a long way... it started out with not much more than my old VB gaming tutorials! And look at all of the great info it houses now. I'm proud of us :ego

He already knows... :)
I think I'll be leaving it up about a week and then remove it again.

Roger that, I'll change it. I didn't really understand it either, but it made the page this morning before I left for work. So I was in bit of a hurry - almost missed my bus :rolleyes

If anyone here - who has been a GPWiki member in this last year - has made any complete games this past year, please feel free to add them to the anniversery statistics-page. ;)

Are Eat, Paddles, and BlockBreak big enough and finished enough to add?

I dunno - Paddles and Blockbreak are Linux ONLY! :(
Eat might be a little too feature incomplete to qualify for the title of a "complete" game, but this is a Wiki so judge for yourself and add it if you want to. :)

I just won't add anything. Mostly because I'm too lazy.

I added a news item at GameDev .Net about the GPWiki turning one year. Hopefully they'll approve it... and before the day has ended! ;)

I added my game to the list, but I was wondering, is the list sortted in any particular way? I wasn't sure if it goes by alphabetical by title, first-come-first-served, which game grossed the most sales, who could pee the farthest, etc.
