New Data: Chapter 7: Hack the Signs (REVOLUTION Logs)

June 14th, 2021

I updated the behind the scenes stuff a bit on the site. This should make things a little bit more organized on the story page, and make it easier to modify the site going forward. It's not precisely ~exciting~ but you know, when you have a website that's dynamic that's also old, cruft starts to appear at the edges and data becomes really hard to find or organize properly.

New Data: Chapter 6: Assassins in the Park? (REVOLUTION Logs)

May 24th, 2021

On this day I note the 19th anniversary of SSQ starting. Most people from then aren't here, and those who are probably weren't around for all of it. As one of the few that was there for almost all of it, I have this to say: It has certainly been a crazy ride, with all sorts of ups and downs. Even though the core SSQ experience is slowly coming to a conclusion (because after all, doing the same thing for all eternity doesn't have that much appeal to it), it has to be said that it is quite amazing it lasted this long. People told me it was going to die back in 2004, back 15 years ago, with the utmost certainty. Others told me that IRC was going to fade away and I had to move to whatever the recent (and most likely dead by now) chat services were popular at the time. In fact, I was told this no less than 3-4 different times, for 3-4 different chat services, across the years.

But in the end it goes to show what persistence and interest in something can yield. All I can say is I hope whatever comes next can be as successful... but even if it is not, this already has been completed far beyond the wildest thoughts of its original creators, anyways. Of course, I will do what I can to carry on for another year... '20 years of SSQ' certainly has a nice ring to it, don't you think?

Put up the REVELATION ARC 1 Commentary, thus completing that. Next up... REVOLUTION's first piece? Huh. I guess we'll have a full-ish slice... although I need to speed up a little, otherwise I'll never loop back around to the past and get those last seasons. I mean, sure, they aren't great, but, I'd like to complete the old days some day... ah well.
