So how was your 2014 Blocktopia-wise?
How does it compare to earlier years?
2011/first quarter of 2012 was most fun for me because there was a lot of cool friendly and hot people playing Classic Lava/SMP - like usually 30 - 35 people on CLS and 30 - >70 on Primordia (Morning - Evening for me, night - midday for US)
Also I was new back then, so it all was fresh.
As for of 2014... well Canada. Ice Age.
January: What happened to fire on first week of DoD? Also yay AT
February and March - nothing important.
April - yay Infection.
Rest of year - *yyaaaaawwnnnnn*
Also yay prestige on RoF and Overhaul
Here is copypaste from my wiki profile.

Minecraft/Community Clocks
They are technically user boxes, but I set dates on server releases and MC/Community major events.
Minecraft was launched on 10th May 2009.

Blocktopia (Former TheOne) was launched on ?? {well let set it on 24th +-week) July 2009. It happened after 17th July and before August.
First MC update with Theone being already here happened 11st August 2009.
Here is the changelog in these days: http://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Version_history/Classic
It was created 2 months and 2+-1 week after first version of Minecraft was out.
Also its pure coincidence to be this day Friday... unless Friday recaps are that old tradition.

Community Generations
Blocktopia seems to have four eras:
TheOne Era: Founding of Blocktopia to name change. 24/07/2009-2/12/2010
Classic Era: Name change to launch of Primordia. 3/12/2010-20/10/2011
Mixed Era: Launch of Primordia to shutdown of Classic. 21/10/2011-29/04/2013
Premium Era: Shutdown of classic to The Overhaul. 30/04/2013-late 2014/early 2015?
New Era: The Overhaul to ??? Probably somewhere in 2015
Primordia is landmark here, because it was much more resource and playerbase consuming server than earlier premium servers.
