Heartland

The days are getting shorter, the christmas stuff is in the shops again, and on long boring eves the wee ones want to hear stories from the elders.

Stories like "How did this place here start? Who had the idea, what was the way the Modgods found their way to gather and design the place?"
I just did a search which had no result of that topic ever being treated in a thread of it's own, thus I started it.

So, how did it happen back in 2002?

I think I'll leave that to Barry to tackle. Rest assured, I promise to fill in any missing bits, or help out with any necessary "corrections" to the tale...

Stay tuned.

Can't you just go back and look at the posts, Jurgen? I did, once... it was pants in those days before I came along though

Why does the expression "hell in a handcart" immediately spring to mind?

.....and on the seventh day James Blast prophecied disaster....

Which time of you comming along? first or second?
I just did go back very far, and had to tackle a serious urge for a massive thread-necro attack.
