So we haven't done this meme in ten years...

And man. We felt old back then.

So on this auspicious day back in 2005 this game came into existence and generated so many fun times and memories. So a FH Memories meme seems appropriate.

( Remember when... )

Hello, folks! So, as the tea and crumpet rain signified, Fandom High officially turned eleven yesterday, making it almost old enough to be in middle school. Insert your own "oh god we're ancient" jokes here.

In honor of the anniversary, we thought it might be fun to make "My Eleven Favorites" lists in the comments below. Your eleven favorite what? Well, that can be anything you want: your eleven favorite scenes, eleven favorite events, eleven favorite characters you've played in the past (for those of us who have been around way too long)--whatever strikes your fancy! So, set your walkers aside, shoo the children off your lawn, and celebrate!

Greetings, Fandomites of yesterday, today and tomorrow! We want to welcome you back to the island, no matter how long you may have been gone.

We also want this anniversary event to be as laid-back and fun as possible for everyone, so we've put together some info to hopefully answer any questions or worries people might have about jumping back in to play. (This is for current players as well as anniversary returnees, so everybody, please take a look!)

( Questions, Answers, and The Chance To Ask And Answer Yourself, All Behind Door Number One! )

[Aaaand comment threads are open for business! Or pleasure.]

Current Mood: nostalgic

There's going to be lots of returning characters coming back for the game's anniversary, and you know what that means: they're all going to be crashing at the Arms Hotel for a few nights! Will there be enough rooms for everyone, or will there be room-sharing shenanigans all weekend? Hopefully more of the latter, because I really want shenanigans.

I'm taking suites out of the picture this weekend to simplify things. Your options for visiting characters this weekend are:

reserve a room for a single character, for those that need their space

reserve a room for two to four characters who are planning to stay together

request a randomly-assigned roommate to share a room

or maximize the potential for hi-jinks by requesting a randomly assigned room for four. Yay paperwork errors!

If your characters are going to be staying at the hotel for anniversary weekend, please leave a comment under the appropriate thread for your preferred option. Be sure to list the names as they should appear on the spreadsheet since there's going to be a lot of copy-pasting going on. The deadline to sign up is Saturday, September 5, at 8 AM EDT. Please, please, please try to make the deadline so I know how much I have to organize. That said, if you miss the deadline, go ahead and leave a comment on option number one and I'll try to squeeze your characters in.

~~Please wait for the OCD.~~ OCD is a go! Comments have been screened to prevent spoilers, but questions and amusing gifs will be unscreened as necessary.

Hello there! With Fandom High's anniversary just two weekends away (gasp!) we wanted to give everyone a chance to start getting their deeply-missed-character ducks in a row. Are you struggling to figure out who to bring back for the weekend? Have you had trouble remembering those old passwords and usernames? Then this is the post for you!

Hello folks! We interrupt your BDE recovery for a very advance announcement!

You may be aware that this year, on September 5th, Fandom High will be turning 10 years old. While that makes some of us weep at how ancient we've become, it's also a huge milestone, and we figure it deserves a milestone celebration for everyone. Everyone.

On September 5th, the school will be throwing one of its usual "Hey alumni, come back and visit us" type events, but through the magic of a glitch in Portalocity's systems, the island will be open to every character who's ever been in the game. Awww yeah. The island will be open to everyone until Monday, September 7th, at which point Portalocity will unglitch itself and everyone who's not a current resident will have to go home.

We wanted to announce this way ahead of time to give everyone a chance to find those old character journals, figure out who might be coming back, and get any questions about the weekend answered, such as:

How many characters can I bring back?
As many as you think you can handle playing for three days! Next week, we'll put up a brainstorming post so people can list all the characters they've played (a very long list for some of us) and folks can figure out who they really want to bring back.

Can multiple versions of the same character come for the weekend?
Yes, for this weekend, we will allow multiple versions of characters to be in Fandom at the same time. Bring on all the Buffies!

What about people who don't play the game anymore?
When we say everyone, we mean everyone. We would love to have old players return for the weekend! We're going to try to contact folks we can find email addresses for, but if you're still in contact with old players, encourage them to come back!

Is anything else strange going to happen over the weekend?
There will be one minor invasion of things to fight, and probably some strange rain. It's not a true nostalgia trip without reminding people about Fandom's best features!

If you have any other questions, hit the comments and let us know!

Dear Fandom: Happy birthday to you, you are pretty much a zoo, you have stolen 9 years of our lii-iiives, and most of our brain cells too!

In honor of Fandom High's 9th anniversary, we're dipping back a few years into the past to steal a meme from...ourselves. As somebody pointed out, it's easier to answer when you've got more than one possible reply to "Favorite BDE."

So, with a couple of new additions, the ( FH memories meme! )

Answer all, some, or none; it's up to you! Links are lovely but not mandatory. Also, if you'd like to add some categories of your own, go for it -- we've tossed in a thread for that as well.

For your additional rememberying, birthdays past: 1st | 3rd | 4th | 5th | 6th | 7th (card) | 8th
