...Well, kind of.

First of all, thanks to Cathartic for pointing this out to me today. I've had a miserable week of having a car accident (totaled my car), a friend who damn near died of a heart problem no one knew he had, his brother having a car wreck (totaled his car), transitioning from a company I've worked for for 10 years to a new one, and a ton of other minutiae. Yes, Cath, it helped.

Anyway, he pointed out to me that Massively.com has a short entry under their "Daily Grind" column titled How do you learn the game? That screenshot at the top of the article looks very familiar!

Also, I'm honored that we made the pages of The Paragon Tattler as what they refer to as "the enablers." Personally, I figure that every dollar that Paragon Studios saves on killing trees with official manuals (or for that matter, every dollar they don't ask players to spend in the form of official third-party guides) is a dollar that can be put to better use in developing (and paying for) the game.

Last, but not least, I think it's kind of funny that our reach even extends to "that other game." I saw this post on their forums, asking if there's "an equivalent to Paragon Wiki." (The answer is yes, and hopefully the non-Wikia one will be successful, as I wouldn't wish selling one's soul to Wikia on people...)

So, I just wanted to say thanks again to everyone who has helped make the Paragon Wiki an awesome community resource, and for your continued support. It really does mean a lot!

P.S. In case anyone is curious: My friend is recovering well with a brand spankin' new ICD implanted, his brother is bruised but okay, and the insurance company offered a fair amount for the car and I'm buying one just like it but upgraded and with less mileage. If I can just survive 2009, hopefully life is finally headed in the right direction again for 2010.

We've been saving Paragon City for eight and a half years. It's time to do it one more time.
(If you love this game as much as I do, please read that post.)

I love Paragon Wiki! It's especially fun and useful when the content of the game sorta blurs by (like on a TF) and you want to go back and figure out what just happened. It's a HUGE resource for the semi-casual player like myself.

Gratz on the nod, thanks for all your hard work, and hang in there!

Stay Gold, Paragon. Stay Gold.
Nolite te bastardes carborundorum.

In this case, the old site that (last I heard) won't be updated much after the wiki moved to Titan Network.

I could be wrong though.

Hope things keep improving for you, Tony. Thanks again for the best wiki ever.

There are no words for what this community, and the friends I have made here mean to me. Please know that I care for all of you, yes, even you. If you Twitter, I'm MrThan. If you're Unleashed, I'm dumps. I'll try and get registered on the Titan Forums as well. Peace, and thanks for the best nine years anyone could ever ask for.

I love the Paragon Wiki!

Also, good luck with your various problems, Tony. Because all of those suck really bad. >_>
