Welcome to our 5th annual Homecoming Fiesta Friday!! Can't Post



It’s time again for that special Fiesta we hold each year to welcome back TORn alumni, celebrate the folks who are regulars here (new and old) and possibly even lure out a lurker or two *looks through screen* You know who you are! LoL! Laugh

As is appropriate during homecoming celebrations, I took a look at past homecoming threads and had a few chuckles at where we were and where we’ve come over the past four years. It’s been quite a ride! So, I put together a little retrospective below for a quick walk down memory lane.

We also had a very special announcement yesterday on the Feedback board that I wanted to repeat here: the board Admins are pleased and excited to welcome three new members to our ranks:


dernwyn Heart



Earl Heart



entmaiden Heart



We know they’ll do a great job and we also know you’ll all be extra easy on them as they learn the ropes. Wink


Since we have much to celebrate, we’d better get this party started! We’ve set out our best hors d’ouevres, put up our best decorations and, of course, stocked up on only the best virtual libations just for this very occasion. So enjoy!


*kicks juke box* the Welcome Back Kotter theme starts to play


Enjoy Fiesta and don’t you alumni and lurkers be strangers. Stick around and join in the anticipation of The Hobbit, and all the exciting things we'll have to celebrate next year!!


Homecoming Fiesta Retrospective:
Homecoming Fiesta threads started in the last year of the first age of the message boards (a few months before the new boards came to be in February 2007). Board members took a vote and decided early- to mid-November would be a good time to have it because there aren’t any major holidays or Tolkien milestones around this time of year.


Sadly, we don’t get as many oldies as we used to because some of the oldies who used to alert other oldies have also sailed to the west. However, they all continue to be welcome here whether it be at Homecoming Fiesta time or any other time throughout the year.


2006 (1st Homecoming Fiesta): thread gets so big it crashes the boards. A 2nd thread is necessary to free things up. In Home Page news, there were rumors MGM was in talks with Peter Jackson to make two Hobbit movies. The Two Towers complete recordings were released.


2007 (2nd annual Homecoming): Fisrt Homecoming Fiesta on the new boards. The Home Page had also been updated after a major crash lasting several days. In Home Page news, the feud between New Line and PJ was delaying Hobbit talks. ROTK Complete recordings were released.


2008 (3rd annual Homecoming): By this Homecoming, we ‘knew’ PJ would produce The Hobbit and Guillermo Del Toro would direct, the Hobbit Movie board was new and the boards were approaching 3,000 new members.


2009 (4th annual Homecoming): FOTR at Radio City; Bilbo casting rumors abounded on the internet; Ian McKellen announced he has read the script for The Hobbit, and we were all looking forward to filming starting in the spring of 2010.


2010 (5th annual Homecoming): Del Toro is out and Jackson is *back* in. A number of major roles have been cast. The boards, especially the Hobbit board, are hopping, getting up to over 800 posts per day overall at times. The boards surpass 5500 registered users.


Here’s to looking forward to Homecoming 2011!!!



********************

Welcome back,
Your dreams were your ticket out.

Welcome back,
To that same old place that you laughed about.

Well the names have all changed since you hung around,
But those dreams have remained and they're turned around.

Who'd have thought they'd lead ya (Who'd have thought they'd lead ya)
Here where we need ya (Here where we need ya)

Yeah we tease him a lot cause we've hot him on the spot, welcome back,
Welcome back, welcome back, welcome back.
