Happy Birthday to us! EcoModder turns six. Prizes! (ScanGauges, etc.)

EcoModder turned 6 last week - December 3.

One more lap around the sun!


Birthday cake: By Rev Dan Catt

(Yes, I'm getting even lazier with the birthday cake. No cake was made this year, unlike the real cake made on our 2nd birthday. USUAL WARNING: DO NOT attempt to skip cake with an actual 6 year old.)


Birthday Party Prizes


We're celebrating by giving away a few prizes...
  • ScanGauge II: thanks to Linear Logic for offering to sponsor our birthday party by giving away a ScanGauge II. It will be awarded at random to one member* who posts in any thread in the forum between 12:01 AM EST (Dec. 3) and 11:59 PM EST 1 week from today (Dec. 16).
  • EcoModder decals: one additional randomly chosen member who posts in the forum in the same time period will receive a free pair of decals.
* ... only members who joined before today can win.

So, Happy Birthday to us! And as always, thanks to everyone -- moderators and members alike -- who make EcoModder worth celebrating.

Contest results to be posted [here] later.

Congratulations on not becoming useless, or dead, or boring, or erupting in civil war, or selling out, or any of those other things forums tend to do. Here's to many more!
