Thanks for the update as always (at least this time you didn't do it late)

It's already in there, under March 2010:

Shouldn't we clarify that it mostly went down because it was losing money? Yes maintenance was part of the plan but I don't think the main reason.

Altho they never said they were down for maintainence thus losing money. They said it was to upgrade their crappy site and improve the games.

Have you watched their videos? It was stated that the reason why IA was taken down was because the IA Arcade was not a very good revenue generator. They gave us this to think about: would you rather have the Arcade stay up and have IA go bankrupt, or would you rather the Arcade come down for a little while until IA figures out a better way to generate some lasting revenue. Some major partnerships have already fallen through.

November update. Only one event of importance occurred, but it was certainly a biggie.

Shame I never had the chance to try out MBO. If it was as awesome as I hear it is, I probably would be playing that all day instead of minecraft.

Thanks for keeping this up!

Suggestion here: I think you should make each year into a separate post.

Considering that this thread is over 3 years old and 11 pages long, and the fact that the timeline is getting unwieldy to read and update, I think it would be a good idea to make an entirely new thread, and use MF's suggestion of making each year a separate post. Then this thread can be put into the Vault. What do you guys think?

Leave this one here for discussion, but unsticky it.
Create new thread with ONLY the timeline (could even include the Years in Review), but leave it sticky-locked.

New thread exclusive for just the timeline while this one left for discussion of that other thread would indeed be a good idea. +1 from me.

New timeline thread is here! Now the timeline is much cleaner and easier to read and navigate. It's hard to believe so much has happened in nearly nine years.

This thread will remain for discussion purposes.
