Gloves

I just wish it was set in a more interesting section of the timeline. 

Mmmmm noted. The current site header is definitely still kiiiiinda placeholder. More important to launch and have a home I think that have it necessarily be perfect out of the gate.

I'm open to suggestions, as well as... submissions?

I'll fiddle around with it when I get time but I'm quite busy at the moment so may take some... time.

And just to add some controversy to the thread...  the N64 library on the whole is superior to the SNES library.  Fight me

Don't make me add "Dislike"s just for you. 

Well jeez maybe don't BLITZ to the other side of the page!

No but seriously, it's possible that the page is still loading as you scroll down and perhaps your browser thinks "when page loaded, be at X position".

Are you seeing this just on threads? Or all over the place?

Welcome. I’m looking forward to our first Thanksgiving.

Thanksgiving was earlier this month bro.

I was gonna make a Nintendo Switch joke but OP beat me to it. Frick.

What are the differences in subscription level besides $?

Nothing at the moment. I just know that some people have asked me to be able to give more than $5/month so I wanted to let them do so. You DO get access to a sub-only forum, and in there I have a thread asking for feedback on what sort of stuff people would like for different tiers, if anything.

Is that $45 a month/week/year/day?

$45/mth.

That said, to Jone's point - it can definitely go up pretty significantly based on usage. Early days!

It’s ok guys. Jeff can’t read your PMs here.

I can though, so WATCH IT!

Hey all!

One of the most-requested features is "let me throw money at you", and who are we to deny you that pleasure? We've added the "Store" tab to the main navigation at the top of the site with both a Donation and a Subscription feature, as well as links to view and manage your transactions.

For transparency's sake, right now the total costs of running the site itself are around the $45 USD mark, and I've added $20 to that total for our Donation Goals to account for image hosting costs (moving to Amazon S3 soon).

But Gloves, what if you get so many donations that you have excess funds?

Damn that'd be cool eh? You guys are too cool. There are no SET plans at the moment and we're always open to feedback. My CURRENT plan is to pool excess funds for a rainy day where monthly subs/donations don't meet the requirements; BUT if we find ourselves really just sitting on a bunch of funds I want to put it straight back into the community with physical prizes to give out to Event winners, maybe something nice for top contributors, and potentially some sort of homebrew support fund.

Let me know your thoughts, and thanks once again for all the support!

I'm absolutely getting this as well as the dock, but honestly I think I already have basically all the games I need. I may consider looking into some "best of" lists to bulk up the handheld collection a bit, and perhaps dip a little into these other non-Nintendo handhelds to see how they hold up. Really excited to get my hands on it!

Here's a quick example copy-paste from Google Sheets to whet your appetite. I do think it'd work quite well for you, rather than trying to manage multiple threads:

We also have little icons under our roles. (which will be updated to other images soon) 

That said, we'll consider a color or something to really drive it home, potentially.

@Gloves Can you move my Zelda thread over? I don't think the thread owner has that permission. Here the link: 

^ Fancy. Just pasted the raw link and it did that on it's own.

 

Done. And yup - pretty nice right?

Ask and ye shall receive.

Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Eh?

Mostly Runescape right now. Minit on the commute.

Newborn at home, deliberate life choice, or debilitating happenstance?

This website. All of the above.

I've upgraded a couple boxes from lower condition ones I had previously for sure. I really like when things are clean and crisp. 

Yep. Plan to! I'm gonna work ol' @LambBrainz to the bone!

Majora's Mask for me. I always loved the creepy atmosphere and time mechanics.

I've decided to give up sleep, apparently.

Good call. I don't have one so I forgot about it, but have added it. Enjoy!

Woohooo!

 

Now how do we restore the Shoot-em-up Leaderboard.

Ah shit!

Whoa whoa whoa there's more Mistborn? When was that released? 

Edit: never mind that's just a different cover lol. 

I have one ready to add, I plan to make it a secondary theme you can toggle. 

I just can't add it until the site has launched, as the system still thinks its in demo mode. 

100% happening!
