    Well..

    Would it be possible to make a calender(?), so everyone can see when it's a holliday for diffrent nations of the World??

    Because ive all ready made the mistake about asking for a trainer during an american holidaym just because we dident have one where i live..

    would make it alt easyer for everyone i think
    Viva la morte, viva la guerre, viva sacre mercenaire

    Who am I? I am but the sum of my experiences
    and today i am more than i was yesterday and less than i will be tomorrow

    hmm, im not quite sure how this would work. we could make a calender using an html table, but posting these in topics or blogs has strange effects for some reason(i think it has to do with conflicting tables hence make a table inside of an already existing table in the site's source code). it seems that when an html table is posted, the site automatically places a number of line breaks before the table (<br>) which creates a large gap of empty space between the start of the actual post and the start of the table, and it seems like the larger the table is, the more line breaks the site will generate.

    show_user_bc.asp?blogID=26733&userID=97427>Example
    (notice the amount of empty space between the blog title and the beginning of the table, you may need to scroll to reach table).

    perhaps it would be more logical to post an open sticky in the OTD board to the effect of Today in history...or something like that.

    I would beg for freebies on Sinterklaas! No, that's not Dutch for Santa Clause, it's a holiday where an old man sails from Spain to Holland on an old steamboat bringing children gifts much like santa does!

    Remarkable how trusting parents were in that day and age, don't you think?

    It would probably be better to have an Announcements board where they can announce when downtime on their end will occur due to vacation, holiday, coffee spilled on server, etc. Can also be used to announce other changes like the site redesign.

    The tricky part behind your request is that Cheat Happens is an incredibly small team so they get the perk of being able to customize their work schedule 100% (so they can observe taking a holiday on an event one year then the next not doing so).
