    Hi !
    I have an idea.
    I propose to all users, to choose All Saints to be the official celebration day of Major Geeks .
    After all, they save us all the time...
    How do you find the idea ?

    WHAT? Are you implying that there is any luck to this computer business? The only time "luck" is involved is when things go bad, and that's bad luck. When thing go well, that's skill, knowledge, and analytical creativeness.

    At least that's the impression I try to convey.

    Actually, an interesting idea.

    Oh, and I see you are new here, welcome!

    If I believed in that, I would have a lot more hair! Hair-pulling is a part of computing.. Kinda goes hand in hand.... LOL :-D

    Welcome to MG Jenny 2! :wave

    I'm not aiming at luck !
    Saints are professionals - in saving . In saving = salvation, not saving = back up.
    Although , again, back up = salvation, usually.
    The point is : I insist on the idea :)

    Thought you ment the pop group All Saints and I would have gone for that, but IIRC Majorgeeks was officially opened on some day in Jan 2002, so likely 01/01/xxxx is a good day to celebrate.

    Could as its computing based forum, choose the birthdate of one of the creators of the computer, although thats a topic of descusion as do you go ahincent in the Abacus or modern and you have a few to choose from Charles Babbage, Alan Turing and Konrad Zuse and others but as its a minefield, lets stick with New Years Day :)

    Looking at the earliest Join Date in the Member's List shows MA's 12/11/01, CP's 1/01/02, Halo, Phantom and the rest started joining on 1/6/02. So I would say 6 January. Nothing wrong with 1/1/ though.

    Yes, the 6th of January has the advantage that it adds a celebration to the calender.

    But then, again, what is a celebration without a name. It has to be an absolutely nice, cool name.
    Now who will come up with the best name on earth?

    /geekday


    and could greet other geeks with the phrase "happy geekmass day" with "geek punch" (booze) and geekcake (for TimW) and dinner of "fiss oN chips" ............ damn I'm good at this.


    Hehehehehe @ Rustyjack, indeed pop and booze and good looking or funny girls are a winning mix in my book ;)

    Ok, now it’s getting more &more complicated.
    The 6th of January is the day, We have the appropriate menu, fiss on chips, that is, and, of course , a special recipe for the geekcake, is needed. Or how? Software& hardware with chocolate on top ?
    “Happy geek day! “ is a bit official, but never mind. Fiss on chips is coming.

    So what would be the name ? Geekday? Holy Geek Day? Saint Geek Day ? All Geeks day? (going to the disco included)
