So, MANTASTIC has now been up and running for a full week, and what a week it's been.
Surprisingly, everything went more smoothly that I could have hoped for, and was more fun than I'd expected. It feels like, after years of reading blogs, and thinking about considering starting my own, I've been able to hit the ground running and get into stride almost immediately. At this point, I can safely say that this experiment was a success, and the site isn't going anywhere.
Of course, it hasn't been without its problems. There have been posting errors, internal laziness, and a few very vocal haters getting in the way. These seemed like daunting problems at first, but looking at them now, it was silly to worry about them. I think we're through, and finally settled into a groove.
More important than haters, though, are all of the fans. I, on behalf of both myself and the other admins, would like to thank everyone who's visited, commented, 'liked' a link, subscribed to the RSS feed, or spread the word. And I'd especially like to thank Vexil, The Situation, and Drew for being part of the team, as well as A Number of Days of Nothing and Laxsith's Music Dump for following us on Blogger.
Now that this first rollout week is over, and we've (almost) delivered on our promise of daily updates, we're going to slow it down a little bit. No worries, though; there's still plenty of content. It'll just be posted every few days from now on. (Of course, it'll be slightly more often if you guys send stuff in.)
I'm glad you were all here to see the beginning of this blog, and to make it as much of a success as it was.
Stay macho, my friends.
- The Webmaster
