Marathon Messageboard Thread is it defunct??

I can't get to the Chocolate Planet anymore - is there a problem somewhere? It's time the inhabitants of that thread to squeak up! What the error message reads as----------------

.... Happy Birthday, Fuzzy. (he's so big because he's so late. Seems he's been scarfing down birthday cake in secret).

See, we lost lots of our history. Our beloved emoticon pals, our threads that helped keep track of birthdays.

my birthday got missed too.. I think a couple of years in a row. I was kind of glad.

I hope you guys find a way to get the old "chocolate planet" thread to function again. I tried to open it with no success.

Keep in ming though if this thread is the new marathon thread it will suffer the same fate once it gets bigger.

finally feeling able to continue, and that i wont fall asleep en-route i trundle up to fuzzy wuzzy and present him with a scroll to read. it is a royal proclamation! *awe struck expression*

To whom it may concern

the present, past, future and for all time rulers of all of the known universe and beyond have noticed that fuzzy wuzzy has engaged in devious and underhand activities in an attempt to avoid people knowing it his his birthday!

since such acts are clearly quite wrong, this state of affairs is not to be accepted! so by royal decree we hear by announce that for this year only fuzzy wuzzy will be celebrating his 21st birthday on 1st April, since this gives us the time and warning to prepare for the presentation of the organized 5,000,021 birthday spanks that he so clearly deserves!

signed and sealed with the royal seal
*cat paw print*

feline peaks at the scroll as fuzzy wuzzy reads it

all of this talk of birthdays has got me thinking. perhaps it is time i presented my birthday list, so that people will have time to organise the things i want *big grin*

i would like the following items:

* a positive stardock experience, one that does not leave me feeling the need to write another negative and depressing email, asking if software will ever be fixed

* the marathon thread back - i refuse to look at this site until this ultimate sin has been resolved! i may well refuse to look at the site even afterwards, but that can be sorted out later

* 1,000,000 cadburies chocolate buttons. 2/3 of them in dark chocolate and 1/3 of them in white chocolate

* a diagram showing all of the ticklish spots on both fuzzy wuzzy and GM, along with notes about which are the most ticklish, and which spots become more ticklish with tickling *big grin*

* a treacle and chocolate trap with GM caught in the middle of it, wearing only a chocolate soluble chocolate nurses uniform! after all, once she gets better how else are we going to keep up with her? it is for the best! *innocent expression number 91*

* a large keg of chocolate ale to present to OC on his birthday. after all being prepared in advance is a good thing.

Indeed. You will not be able to see the site from within your new leather and straps jacket...

* 1,000,000 cadburies chocolate buttons. 2/3 of them in dark chocolate and 1/3 of them in white chocolate

Now where have all the milk chocolate buttons gone ***innocent look No 22***

* a diagram showing all of the ticklish spots on both fuzzy wuzzy and GM, along with notes about which are the most ticklish, and which spots become more ticklish with tickling *big grin*

Hmmm, I don't have a diagram of ticklish spots, but if you'd like to stand still for a moments I can demonstrate ***TICKLE*** ***TICKLE*** ***TICKLE***

As for the trap...I'll be here tomorrow covered in treacle

Methinks that cat paw print is a rip. Someone is going to have an awfully sore bottom for this

I was able to get into the thread, but when I added a comment and clicked submit, it eventually timed out without ever accepting my post.

Better then any of us so far. I've been trying every so often and still get the errors. Even when the forum was dead.
