March: The Big 100

Everybody loves 100... Look to the left. If I was offering to send each and every Arcader a 100 dollar bill in the mail... would any of you object?

Well, you won't be recieving any $100 bills in the mail. But the point I am trying to make is that we all love 100!

FilmArcade.Net is coming up on its 2 month anniversary. Over the past two months, it has been fun to see the site grow. We originally started off with 10 reviewers. We now have 19 successful Arcaders contributing to the success of the site. We have an amazing view count: over 200 views a day, linking to us from all over the web.

This past month, admin Tony D was featured on Mike and Alex's Blog Talk Radio show (HMF Radio), where he promoted the site. The Oscars were a huge thing here at the Arcade. We had the Oscar Cleanup, where almost every film nominated for an Oscar was reviewed by an Arcader (yes, even Norbit). We had predictions, and of course, the extremely fun Oscar Live Blog, where many of the Arcaders chatted and interacted as the Oscars were happening live. The site got over 800 hits that night. What a success.

I would like to take the time to thank Tony. He has done such an amazing job with this site. And there is still more to come! Staff pages... forums... a radio show? FilmArcade will only get better! Thank you, Tony. You are truly awesome.

Back in January, there were some issues with the domain, and the site didn't officially go up until about the 7th. However, there were 84 posts that month. I was really looking forward to hitting 100... However, I thought that the down week was what held us back. So, I looked forward to hitting it in February.

What I overlooked was the fact that February is the short month... And with today being the last day of the month, and only 83 posts, I think it is obvious that there will be no 100 in February.

However, we all love 100 right??? And March has 31 days right???

I love the number 100 just as much as the next guy. And with the site being so successful, I want to see 100 posts! Everyone here are excellent reviewers, and I know we can do it.

So everyone work extra hard this month to get those reviews on the site. I want to log into FilmArcade.Net on March 31st and see to the right:

January 84
February 83
March 103

I would like to thank all of the arcaders. It has been a pleasure, and a lot of fun, working with you all. Also once again, big thanks to TonyD. Without you none of this would be possible.

Until March 31st, Happy Reviewing! =) And get those reviews on here!!!
