Jonathan takes on a partner (in Changelog)
This is a lot of fun to write. There has never been a Changelog post like this before.
NightStrike has agreed to buy an interest in CB and help develop it into the future. So you'll see him making changelog posts and sporting his shiny new Admin tag Real Soon Now. I'm very pleased to have his help; he's an accomplished programmer, and brings a fresh perspective to growing the CB community.
We now return you to your Saturday morning ranting about the Inspect changes. (I'm working on Show All. Now take a deep breath.)
P.S. We'd both like to request that ideas, bug reports, and complaints continue to be directed to the General forum; in other words, please don't spam NS's inbox or he'll turn into a grumpy curmudgeon like me. :)
Oh wow. I did not see that coming. Congrats, NS!

... So you're saying we can buy interest in CB? Hmm, I wonder how much one would have to pay for that...

"Does this mean change months will be twice as crazy now? =P"
Hopefully. Congrats, NightStrike!
So... in 20 years... will it be Jon's kids, or NS's kids running this game? :P

Or perhaps, in twenty years, there would be no difference between Jon's kids and NightStrike's kids... Bum, bum, bum.

Congrats to the use of the word 'curmudgeon', Jon, you really do give us some nice insight into that grey matter of yours occasionally :)
Hakai is a guy!? o.O
And gratz NS.
Congrats NS, welcome to the fold! :) I hope you like the new partnership!
<sarcasm> I don't like it. That would only make CB twice as interesting. I MORE interesting change. please please please.</sarcasm>

congrats NS.
"Hakai is a guy!? o.O "
Wth? where did that even come from? And, no. Last time I checked I was not a guy.
Hmm... I need to become a programmer. Then I can create cool games.

I completely missed this. Good stuff!
Strange but very cool changelog!
Congratulations to you, NightStrike, I'm sure this new partnership will do heaps of good to the game. I do not know you personally, but I can, as anyone with forum access can, see that you have had great influence on this gaming environment so far.
PS: Also, with the recent changes, I feel much closer to my CB-T :)
I'm glad I was around. It's like CB3, but without a number change :P
YAY! (I remember reading that you don't drink, but here, have a virtual beer, and 3000 Respect Points.)

Congrats NS :)
Heh. Way back when Nightstrike had the popular vote for QB but didn't win, I mailed Jon and told him to just stick Admin in front of Nightstrike's name and disqualify him from any future QB votes. It took him awhile, but he finally got around to it. Congrats!
