Hey there!
A bit late but I was surprised this topic wasn't created yet!
I know, I know I've been away too long.! Fingers crossed the world we live in right now will be hopefully better soon!
To the very kind people you all are:
Merry Christmas and a HEALTHY New Year.
Tell us about your year! How do you look back? Any specific events you wish to re-live or wish you were to able to change.
Regards Terraniux

Merry Christmas to you!!!
Where to begin...
My wife and I bought a wonderful house. It was a long time dream of ours. Then, due to Covid the job I loved was gone and my band lost all our gigs. Most gigs were $1,000 a night casino gigs and the total losses came out to $15,000. While I was laid off I worked on the landscaping at our new house and got us settled in while my wife was still working. In May I got a job selling furniture and now things are better than ever. I am making much more than before but my schedule is crazy. I still get some time to play UT99 and work on the server from time to time, mostly modding maps and such. I helped Dragon with his server and it is still going strong. Hook and I have been talking about doing something fun with his redeemer, we'll see. Looking foward to a new, better year hopefully, and i wish the same for everyone. Take care!!

Thanks for the story Darkwatch! I hope that the table flips one day in your favor. The thing I mostly remember, in early 2020 how ordinairy life may seem, when it changes due some virus, the 'inner' ego of people is presented. Not as a act self protection but more the 'the there is only me'. Which I find pity. There are some good people out there too! My work wasn't canceled though, so I could keep on working This semester is very difficult though! I hope I can finish the study...... In my country they banned fireworks for this year!Yay! Finally. Except for the stuff that <12 years old kids are allowed to use. I hope the common members we used to know will come back to UT and the current members post on the forum frequently. That is my wish.

Hello folks! First of all, Thank you people for posting this! I have been wanting to reply to this thread for weeks, but I just haven't been able to think of what to write. Where to begin? Basically, the wife and I have hunkered down and we have both been working from home since mid March of 2020. Skipped going on planned vacations etc., bur we are doing well considering. I myself am planning on retiring around June or July 2021. Terraniux this is my wish also!!! So many ut people seem to have given up visiting the various ut99 forums. It is really very sad. Discord is even kind of slow too, and discord just does not do the job IMO. Anyway, let's keep trying to give it a go here at HUTP. I definitely need the Staff's help more and more, and member Participation is very desired too! Let us make 2021 a Great year for HUTP and us all!
