Very nice and compact, saves a heap of space over the old forum. Can't see anybody/thing missed, but then I've never had that much to do with that part of the forum anyway, at least not for a couple of years...

Oh and FIRST VIEW + RESPONSE HELLS YEAH

One criticism I do have though is that it moves a bit too fast, so its a bit difficult to read all of it. (Then again, I am a slow reader. :o )
Fixed. :p

Wow, really good layout.
I know you'll get mad at me for saying this, but it would be cool to have little scenes in the background of the scrolling text like in the endgame of CaveStory.
Of course, it's already great enough!

Already considered that. Problem is that such a thing would require emulating cave story physics, which seems like too much work. Plus I can't use anything that could be classified as spoilers.

Wow, that's... awesome! Pure goodness, if I can tell.
I just think it could also use some music. I'd suggest Outer Wall (or Moonsong, as it's named in OrgView). Is that possible?

It's possible, but inserting music into a page of an otherwise silent website would be annoying for some.

Or maybe you can make it such that it plays the music throughout every page of the website. So long as it continues when you click another link and doesn't restart everytime you click on a new link within the website, I think ppl won't find it annoying.

There isn't a way to continue the music without frames, and frames screw up searches. So, no. If I had to do it then it would be that page only.

Well, to lower the annoyance level, you could turn the volume down a little.

I don't like the idea of adding music to this website. Wouldn't it cause the web site to lag on slower connections? And anyways, I prefer to listen to my own music on my computer, so it would be aggravating if I had to turn off the music every time I visited the website. This idea just sounds like a waste of time and bandwidth IMO.

Umm, how often do you actually visit the Special Thanks page?

I agree. NO MUSIC.

By the way, it fails miserably for me. I suspect it's partly because I'm using FlashBlock, but I don't even see the Play button that FlashBock usually replaces a flash file with...

Instead of making it repeat, why not add an easter egg at the end for the people that watched the whole thing?
Ikachan or somethin?

Great job otherwise.
