OK I'll put my hand up. I started in June 2007. A shy little thing that hardy said boo.
As you see nothings changed.
Love this Site.

Ooh, guess what - I just checked and I joined on 23/10/07 so that is one year ago tomorrow. I was lurking for months before but that was when I came out into the open. It has been an enjoyable and exciting year and I've met a lot of you personally and that has been great. Thanks for the fun, I hope to have many more years of it.

I joined May 21, 2007, so it's been a year and five months for me! I've made many wonderful friends in Sudokuland - both on site and in person, and I'll be adding to the "in person" list next month in San Francisco. Woo hoo!!! Thanks, Gath, for making this all possible!!!

I am so glad that we have found something else in common. We all have a love of Sudoku and made lots of friends in Sudokuland.

I joined May 1, 2007. I was in the thick of the "last to post" competition before I knew what hit me! What fun THAT was! It was the fore-runner to the SA pages. I actually feel bereft if I don't get here every day. I feel as though I know everyone personally. I love how funny, caring and supportive this group is We all owe you a great deal, Gath. Thank you.

Hi Folks...first a cut and post from easy...

CynB you have prompted me to look up when I joined.
First started the daily worship at the site in January '07. By June I was hooked and the first visitor to my page was our very own Gail....
Extraordinary how you all have become such an More...

Hi eaa....fancy us both joining in June....such quiet retiring souls as us....do you think anybody knows we are around???
I didn't get into the 'last to post competition'...was studying at uni and tried to keep away as much as possible...tried hard not to scroll down after doing the puzzles More...

Bean and Kathy, I agree with both of you. I feel like I am missing out on something if I don't stop in a read all the posts. It is amazing how people all over the world can share in the joy and sorrow of our everyday lives.

Well I scraped in on the 15th November, and Beanie Baby was the first to welcome me. Never expected I would meet and make lifetime friends in less that a year.

Just like Kathy, the 'last to post' competition sucked me in.
Now there is no way to get rid of me .
I've met many new friends here, who would have thought!
