Though it's been less than three years since I was here, it's been a lot longer for you, so here's the recap so far:
  • 2003-10: OPB begins and mostly thrives!
  • November 29, 2010: Last OPB-related post on forum
  • June 15, 2012: OPB put on hiatus
  • 2012-17: Life happens
  • 2017-18: Thanks to my shitty old web host (and my failure to prioritize updating software, and irrepressible spammers) a couple of my sites go down at some point, including this forum (previously at parkbaseball.gohlkusmaximus.com) and parkbaseball.org
  • 2018: finally, perhaps pointlessly updated the forum software
  • 2020: transferred domain names to namecheap (also, moved back to Wisconsin after being gone for 20+ years—during a pandemic)
  • 2021: migrated websites—including reviving parkbaseball.org and in the process of moving the forum to forum.parkbaseball.org (updating it again to the latest version, which I hope will be stable)

This still holds true!

Anyone interested in a Zoom reunion? I'm glad to set it up.

Also, I'm personally not likely to get back to the Bay Area anytime soon (unfortunately), but I would be up for planning a 2023 in-person reunion to celebrate 20 years of OPB (and of course people can get together between now and then).
