This is a day that marks something very special. It's so special that I can't even say what it is. If you can guess and you live within easy walking distance, I will give you a cookie. Otherwise, you can have the satisfaction of knowing that you are smart.

—Alorael, who did not just create this topic for the sake of creating a topic, although it may seem that way. No, really, there's a point!

A couple of guesses:

Because of this?

My last guess, because of one of these Mathematicians:

You came out of the closet?

EDIT: Losing your virginity at the age of 54 (or whatnot) is not something you celebrate. And definitely not something you tell people at SW.

Lets see:

1991 - Collapse of the Soviet Union: Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev is put under house arrest while he was vacationing in the Crimea. The coup was led by eight high-ranking hard-liners (the coup will collapse in less than 72 hours).

1992 - Wang Laboratories files for bankruptcy.

1227 - Genghis Khan, Mongol leader died

No?

Or it might just be HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALO!?

She? Virginity? Oh, my! Oh, dear!

In a word, no.

—Alorael, who did recognize the wonderful events of yesterday, but it is nothing so monumentous as that. Or as creepy as what you're suggesting. You are not healthy people.

I know what's special about it. It is the only August 18 in the whole year of 2004. Therefore, the next one won't come for a whole 365 more days, so everybody, enjoy it while you can.

I need directions to your house for my cookie, Alo. :D

The anniversary of the day you became a moderator?

Anniversary of Spidweb? Anniversary of these boards?

Actually if I had to go with anything, it would be Slith's guess.

Its Desperance.nets third birthday.

If you have some toast then you need some milk. If you have some milk then you need a cookie.
If you have a cookie you need to go outside.
If you need to go outside than have a smoke.
If you have a smoke then you need to go inside.
If you are inside its time to get some toast.

:P :eek: :D

In order to stop generating spam, I cordially inform you that I have hit the 101 moniker mark. I would have mentioned the 100 moniker mark, but I missed it due to a counting error.

Yes, this justifies everything anyone has ever said about me. Please don't rub it in.

Well, like I said, I've been keeping a list of all your monikers since the "Alorael, but not" topic (if you remember it), so now is a good opportunity to post it. There's only 12 that I've cought since then, but...

A vaccination in the obfuscation
Dog is Treag
Transpicuous Gloom
Alorael Abroad
Alorael at Large
Monty Haul
The Mean-looking mercenary
Angriness is a Warm Modem
Googlewhack Aperiodicity
One hundred paging one hundred
Moniker that will live in infamy
Purveyor of Perpetual Peristalsis

It should be worth at least one cookie. :D

EDIT: Oh, and are you keeping a list? :confused:

This may be just a guess, but...

Perhaps August 18 was the day that Spidweb switched from the Ikonboard to UBB? Forgive me if I'm wrong.
