...and another one begins! Happy Birthday, Casino! 
Yes, one year to this day, our first participants signed up, marking the beginning of this forum's life. How long it was to last, none could say, though few expected it to last this long at all. And few can say how much longer it will last.
We've had our ups and our downs. We've had waves of players at once and grueling periods of inactivities. We've lasted through a shutdown and a banning. We've witnessed the end of a tournament, the delay of another, and the conception of a third. We've taken part in scores of games and minigames, dealer- and player-created. We've seen great wins and great losses: teamwork, betrayal, and battles.
And background messages. Freih, you're still checking?
Players come, and players go. The Casino closes, yet the forum lives on. Its final destination in the vague future, its lifetime is uncertain, but thanks to all of you who stick with us and ask for games to be played, it lives on. So thank you all, as we begin our second year of the Casino and another game!
P.S. It would appear to be a good time for an LGT tournament update. LGT3 still doesn't have a dealer, so it will likely be run after LGT4 (meaning a name change for one or both). LGT4 is in the works and still needs about 4 games placed in order to be ready to get things going. We have three unplaced games, so we're well on our way to getting the tournament going, but due to busy lives, preparation, and a want for time to advertise, the tournament may not begin for another year still. Of course, it could also start within the year as well, if we get things done quickly. That's where we are, and we'll make sure to inform you all once we have everything completed!
