It's October Already
Dear $username -
Time flies when you're having fun. We had an "incident" this weekend where we had articles posted at both Digg.com, reddit.com and some other sites - resulting in us breaking the maximum online users at any one moment with a huge margin!
It did also cause some downtime, so it was not all fun. But it's good to see that people find Hypography interesting.
We've had a flurry of new members coming in, but few of them post. To all newcomers: Please make your first post in the introduction forum, and we'll make sure you feel welcome.
We'll be announcing some cool stuff soon: A photography contest, and possibly an essay contest - as well as a barrage of quizzes. If you have ideas for contests, please let me know!
Also, please help with trying out Killean's cool game, FlipMatch. All who try it out and leave their score and some feedback in this thread will participate in a raffle for two t-shirts. Deadline is November 5.

See you at the forums!
All the best,
Tormod
