Yes, today is the site's birthday. On July 14th, 2000, the site officially launched. Which means it's been online for 15 years, which as you probably realize is a really high number for a website, and a really really absurdly high number for a forum.
As always, I want to thank all of you for being a part of this--the biggest part, as it so happens. As much as I have building stuff for you guys to use, how you use it (and how you invent new traditions and games and tournaments of your own) is always the fun part.
In honor of the 15th birthday, and as the title indicates, a small thank you: for today (and maybe a little longer), you can know everything. Meaning you can ask me all sorts of random questions about various site statistics and I'll do my best to answer. For example, you can ask me exactly how many times you've used a particular phrase, or how many posts of yours contain a specific smilie, or what the single longest review on the site is, etc.
I'm sure a handful will involve too much work to answer, but if it's not too extreme, I'll do it.
