...Announcment 

[attachment deleted by admin]

Yeah it's probably been set to 01/01/** (UK date notation)

I was looking at the number of the upcoming b'days earlier and figured that a lot of them just used 01/01 instead of their real date of birth.

[BlackDove]

Still, we should hold a party for Announcment.

[Fineus]

Good friend of mine, Announcment. Think of him like The Stig of Top Gear.

[BlackDove]

In fact I think we're insulting "them", since it's announcments, so I guess there's more of them.

.....are they infinite though?

[Fineus]

They are noone.

[BlackDove]

Then how do we explain their complex existance?

[Setekh]

We are all Announcements.

[Gortef]

Hey Announcement should also get a celebration of it's birth.

But what to get it as a present?

[WMCoolmon]

Its freedom.

[Announcements]

I'm touched.  You guys remembered my birthday for the second year in a row!

I haven't gotten any cake yet, though.

[CP5670]

how did you get that many posts?

[Kamikaze]

Precisely 2^16 posts too. Sweet.

BTW: Why does it say 2^15 for 2^16 posts?

[CP5670]

I was wondering about that too. Maybe that's the maximum number of posts possible and the script is messing up at that point.

[edit] It says 2¹⁶ now. Weird.

[Goober5000]

There wasn't a 2^16 usergroup.  It's been fixed.

[Sandwich]

I've adjusted the birthday of Announcements to today, considering that it's HLP's birthday.

[BlackDove]

Thanks for letting us know, we'll all be sure to cross the date in our calendars to reflect said facts.

[Corsair]

Happy birthday!

[Ford Prefect]

I really hope that isn't a picture of a cake that you actually baked for this occasion.

Ooh, chocolate oranges...
