Has anybody ever managed to get their name in all of the last post boxes on the main page? That would be an UberFaber!

I can imagine telling the grandchildren that [:D]

I am tempted. I got a corrupted turn from Scout1 and am chasing him all over the forum trying to get him to resend before my wife finishes watching a crap programe on TV. With T gone I think that if you timed it right the only person who could stop you would be Cid - he tends to be aware instantly when anyone post on the development sticky!

Year 71:

The Romans establish a fortress at York (Eboracum), as a base for their northern forces. Initially established solely for the legion IX Hispania, expansion later included public housing, baths and temples.

Potillius Cerealis, governor of Britain, puts down a revolt by the Brigantes.

Vespasian and Nerva are Roman Consuls.

Potillius Cerealis defeats Claudius Civilis at the Battle of Treves, thus quelling the Batavian rebellion.

Titus is made preatorian praefect and receives pro-consular command and also tribunician power, all of which indicated that Vespasian would follow the hereditary tradition of succession.

Reign of Rabel II, king of Nabataea. He makes Bostra, Syria, his second capital.

Use of locks with keys of clever design begins in Rome.

I have started and was working my way through the stickies when I came across on where T was the last to post. I can't disturb the Great Dane's last physical presence!

Year 71 BC:

SPARTACUS!! SPARTACUS!! SPARTACUS!!!

Third Servile War ends - Slave uprising under leadership of Spartacus is crushed by a Roman army under Marcus Licinius Crassus. Slaves taken prisoner are crucified all naked along the Via Appia.

Nessebar in modern-day Bulgaria comes under Roman rule.

Hello everybody, my name is Bob and I'm a serial Faberer. I've been clean from Fabers for several days now. I know now that even one Faber is wrong, I just take it one page at a time and try to stay strong.

Anyway, anyone can Faber the stickies.  The real challenge is to be the creator of all the topics on a page [:D]  The closest contender is Cid in the editing subforum....

i might have done it inadvertantly in my misguided youth...[8|]

I was planning to do everything and started on the stickies because they do not change much, but then I was convinced that to even contemplate such a thing is a SIN! I keep hearing the voice of my Guardian Angel. He's called Bob apparently and his raison d'etre is to educate and divert others from the path he once (very bloody recently!) trod...[;)]
