Guantanamo
Is it true that Colin was picked up by the FBI at Andy's request and is now being held in Guantanamo?--Bob's your unkle 14:26, 11 September 2007 (MDT)
 * No. That rumor is categorically untrue, and you can't prove it anyway. human be in 14:33, 11 September 2007 (MDT)
 * It's just that it fits the facts SO well. There's a conspiracy theory waiting to be born there somewhere. Remember that Trent was MIA at the start of RW2 as well. Was he brainwashed and returned?--Bob's your unkle 14:37, 11 September 2007 (MDT)
 * Trent is Andrew Schlafly's sockpuppet on RW. We all know that! human be in 14:48, 11 September 2007 (MDT)

I am amused by the date on which the above discussion occurred... human  16:28, 6 March 2008 (EST)

2.2.1
So all that work and all I get is a revision bump :P --  Nx / talk 08:55, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Hey, you got named, didn't you? What do you want, a friggin' medal?  I'll make you one if you want :)  Seriously, I will...  09:00, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Also, since "2.0" not a hell of a lot has changed - yes, we've been through a server change, and at least two MW updates, but we are still RW2.something as I make it. 09:05, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Yeah, software changes are one thing, but that's not what's important. Anyway, I don't do this because of medals, or barnstars or having my name praised here, so thank you, but I don't want a medal. (I've read RA's parthian, hence the change of tone) --  Nx / talk 09:55, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Leave Ra out of it. You deserve a medal for how well you & Trent did the last upgrade.  All the pre-testing on beta of your new versions of our "special" extensions, etc.  Yeah, it's "behind the scenes" work, and the less you fuck it up, the less people notice (horrible deduction: if you want fame, destroy the site for a day, then rescue it - please don't).  But re the RA thing, yeah, you do it because you want to, right?  I dunno.  I don't have no pretty barnstars or awards.  Sometimes people refer to me, it runs about 50/50 positive/negative.  I don't care about that.  If someone laughs at my joke, I get high.  If they don't, I try to make a better joke.  That's all I have to offer, really.  You, on the other hand, have invested hardcore hours (as did Trent) on the background, the software.  Seriously, I do think you deserve a pretty barnstar.   A unique one.  Give me a few days?  PS, I think I left this window open with the goal of doing such, but I uploaded some crap user.js thing from Ed Poor's aSockdrawer account and it borked and closed my open tabs.  SRSLY you deserve a bahnstah.  I will you make.  And then you will be stuck with it.  :)  08:49, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, Yeh! Barnstar for NX!!--Bobbing up 15:44, 7 May 2009 (UTC)

TOC
That contents box is a masterpiece of minimalism. Totnesmartin 11:59, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
 * That is sweet indeed. I think it were Pi what nested our headers properly for that.  I never even noticed...  23:34, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Dang, I mucked them up by using text in a new header... 00:37, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

Birthday
What are we all doing? is there a page for posting up pictures of cakes? Totnesmartin 21:43, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Later tonight I figure I'll push the ratty furniture out of the way at my talk page to make room for balloons and goat pilaf and much drunken celebratoriations. Maybe around midnight my time. Maybe sooner. A Splendid Time is Guaranteed for All. Feel free to bring any and all refreshments.  I think there's even a swimming pool or piano around here somewhere, if someone can find it.  23:38, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

1.0
Trent posted this diff at WP as the first manifestation of the idea that became RW, and it's in March. 00:15, 11 April 2010 (UTC)

3.0
While I may have gone a bit overboard, I do think the RWF and the server move are separate sub-revs. But let's worry about that after the move and the election are in the past so we see how they pan out. 16:06, 10 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Perhaps wait and combine the move and MW upgrade into a 3.1.... just thinking out loud... 16:07, 10 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Well, the way I'm thinking is: RWF + initial board was 3.0 beta 1 (2.9.1), move+upgrade will be 3.0 beta 2 (2.9.2), and finally when the new board is elected we'll have 3.0. Am I taking this too seriously? -- Nx  / talk 16:11, 10 November 2010 (UTC)
