I apologize for the long, long, LONG delay of getting this thread and countdown up and running on ATRL, but a combination of two things were making things difficult for me:
1) I could not figure out the right layout for the countdown. As a matter of fact, I believe that the layout that I HAVE selected doesn't feel right. That includes the logo of the Red 40. I thought that it would be a great touch to make the logo appear as ominous as possible, but I'm not sure if the execution of the idea was very good. I have plenty of time to figure all of this out, though.
2) Laziness. Pure, unadultered laziness.
As a result, the first countdown of this new adventure that you guys will see will be the tenth edition of the Red 40 (unless you checked out the sneak preview back in the Blokk of Rokk thread!). Also, there's no real point in trying to preview what lies ahead, as it has even been so long since the sneak preview that trying to recap and preview what has happened would take too much time. With that said...FINALLY...
