Wow, that thread was an awesome read. I wish I was part of the community for that! And now I know where the Pi icon came from. Another mystery solved for me!
And for that matter, can someone also explain the whole wiz's mom thing?
That started as a back-and-forth between myself and NGD over at NESWorld. Don't really remember how it started, but we used to go back and forth...he'd throw a mom joke and I'd throw a girlfriend joke, that kind of thing. Eventually it got picked up and since it really didn't bother me, it persisted. Wish I could dig up more details, but it seems the NESWorld forum has lost a good chunk of it's ancient posts. Also, this predates NESForums as well, so despite it being down now, the origin wouldn't be found anywhere on that forum..."Wiz's Mom" was there from day one

You just ruined the magic, buddy. Took the wind right out of my sails!
Sorry man, but that's really how shit went down. Like I say, the memory is a bit hazy on the details...it started around '04 or so, and I'm getting old.

That day will live on forever in your heart, won't it? On that day in 2015, long after we have all forgotten, you should post an anniversary tribute to remind us of our dark, sordid past.

Anyone considering possibly expanding upon Battymo's original list? This is some mighty interesting stuff. Or do I have to wait for Dain's autobio?

The countdown timer was the best part. Watching people log off in fear was hilarious. Dain was so giddy.
That one was probably my favorite NA prank yet.
Dain sold that well, I really thought it was real, damn you two....

I found this awhile back and consider it required reading for NA. Enjoy!

Although he did leave out the ultra important.

I remember falling for this shit, hook. line and sinker. I was truly sad about the whole thing you guys were going back and forth about lol.
So I'll just assume I did and feel all smug about it.
You could post in that one, but prolly a waste of time
