Meh. They say Elroy is a whiz at robots and gadgets. So, we'll test the kid's technical aptitude for War in the Pacific with a wind-up PT boat to start.

Of course some people lurked for a long time before registering. Quite a few of the 2000/2001 registrations are no longer active too.

only 18 years for me. I was going to say I would like to catch up but then thought that means our friend would either have to leave the forum - NO

I lurked during the run up to the original WITP release but even so I can't match 20 years. I am used to being one of the old timers at work...here I am but a baby duck.
