another way to screw the new people.
giligan posted the pw in the forum 10 minutes after entry started, and 30 minutes before the game was filled, so shut up.

It was a skill testing question to see who could use the forum search feature. I don't expect anyone to actually remember the password from last time!

I had to go to bed two minutes before this was announced, didn't I?
I will pretend that I'm that lime-green dude with four armies in China.
Also: Yay for game number 1,000,000! Do we actually know how many games have been played to the finish, though?
My set is a bone coat-of-arms and chandelier! How cool is that?

About 825,000. Just look at the number of pages on the game finder and multiply by 100.

a great site and i'm looking forward to seeing 2 million served soon. now if we could just make a few changes.
first one i would suggest is moving the 1 million served banner to the middle of the page instead of off to the left.
peace

This is a stupid complaint.
The one millionth game is a celebration for the site and all its accomplishments. If those who have been around want to have a special game for those who have been here from the beginning that is and should be OK.
In reality though, this isn't what happened as the password was out there for anyone to find and you were just too lazy to look.
Its just asinine to think that anyone on this site would want to screw the noobs like you and I.

That's what I did, just typed in Battle royale IV, clicked on topic from D2A, and it was br4, so i presumed this time it was br5.
And Gilligan posted it all over the forums, so it must have been hard to miss, jako, even two new recruits managed to join I think

It was created to specifically be played by the players that are the first ones on the site when it was created. Since lackattack is from Canada it only makes sense that the rest of them are.

Speaking of one million... theres only 6 people in the game, but I bet lack still has only one in a million shot of winning it
