Today is my cakeday! I haven't been overly active over the past year, I even missed doing something for my last cakeday. Today that changes. Today I create a thread. A thread of reminiscing and one question. I think we'll have fun.

This cakeday marks six years for me. Six years is a long time to be active on a forum. I registered back in 2013. My gods I was just a baby back then. 6 years! This got me to thinking of the time I've spent on here and the people I've got to meet. The things we've done together. It's more than being just about giveaways, it's about cherishing the time we spend together and fostering these relationships that will last an unspecified amount of time. I'm sure there are many of you that have met people and become friends with them over this website. That in and of itself is pretty amazing. Meeting people online and caring about them, crazy.

This also got me to thinking of all the awesome events and threads that have been created. So many unique ideas that have come about.

The ones that come to the top of my mind include:

These are just few of the many many moments/events/experiences you've come to appreciate on this beloved site of ours.

On to the question now! :D

What's been you're favorite event, moment or experience here so far? Does one come to the top of you mind or has this all been a massive waste of time? Or perhaps you have registered here many moons ago, only to stay in the shadows as a lurker. Never contributing, only leeching. Less than ten comments altogether. To you I say now is the best time to jump in! The water is just right!

Obligitory cakeday giveaway
Bad Rats VR courtisy of the great Fiftykyu

Solution: Each number/letter of the giveaway code was italicized above, and they were the only things that was italicized. Put together you had the code "aM63O" leading you to my train here: https://www.steamgifts.com/giveaway/aM63O/60-parsecs :)

If you had difficulty with this, you should check out Zelghadis' Puzzle Guide.

A favorite event, off the top of my head, are the community trains. Those are really nice to see, and I appreciate the ones who initiate and participate in them. :)

I used to be more active in discussions in the past, then university became more hectic and I barely posted 5 comments a month for a year. First three months was my most active time. I'm also fairly certain many of those weren't just bumps or thank yous. Looking at it now, I wonder how I had so much time to write that many comments... ;; But right now I'm more active than I was in late 2018 - early 2019.

Happy cake day! :D

I joined after the Fortix craze, so, yay, I get a chance to win it!

My favorite have been the 'community' trains where everyone adds something, for sure!

Oh, and happy cake day!

Mine would be student123's puzzle threads. That way i learned a lot of stuff like i didnt even know what "backlog" means before i was here. :D So i got hooked with puzzle threads. I had such respect for people giving their time to create such puzzles some of them was really impressive. That's just from the top of my head but i believe that was the most engaging part of the site for me. Yeah all good memories. Happy cake day again! :)

Happy cakeday! :)

My second year of activity here. o/ 'Community trains' are really fun, but I think that my favorite event would be "Dungeon Sandbox" and now 'Play a game you won on SG'. As I am having fun each month that way. ;D

I still consider me relatively new:
I really enjoyed the
The-ziggurat-of-disappointment

Thanks for pointing our these other cool topics and the giveaways.
Wait why is the harassment thread closed?
First I thought the answer is obvious RAFO (read and find out) buuuut ???

My puzzles don't fit in the "fun" rankings of everyone at SG.XD
Anyway.
I personally like the community train. And the dungeon is not bad either.(&jig)

Happy cake day, Fyantastic!
My favorite event is the monthly "play a game you won", games pick by friends are usually better than algorithms especially when you have a huge backlog and less time to play.

Ive been here for only a year but so far community trains were a lot of fun. And that Christmas event with giveaways as presents that you need to open everyday. And maze created by someone where you need to walk through this big dungeon and look for treasures. Cant remember who created it sadly. HAPPY CAKES btw!

I can't choose best event, I liked too many of them, so I'll put here a link to just one of them, worth mentioning:
THE ZIGGURAT OF DISAPPOINTMENT™ by fiftykyu. His puzzles are not always complex, but it's always something you don't want to miss.
