Minutes to Midnight

I come to this magnificent website today, because my conscience leaves me no other choice. A true revolution of values will lay hands on the old design and style of post: This way of playing old games and ranting about them is still fun! This business of deleting our content without warning, removing our history and achievements. Of injecting poisonous drugs of space into the mailboxes of people normally humane. Of sending men home with no news of retro madness leaving them physically handicapped and psychologically deranged. This act cannot be reconciled with wisdom, justice and love.

This means war!

On Thursday the 27th of December 2012 the men of the UCHG awoke as normal. They went about their daily business blissfully unaware of the horror that was lying in wait. It was at 14:26 that the alarm was raised – The life they once knew was plunged into the dark abyss and threatened with total annihilation.

“UCHG is down. Any ideas what went wrong?”

 

“Erm, too much to out in a text, sent an email…”

There were no screams. There was no time. Only darkness, and then, nothing. The very servers that housed the UCHG had been wiped clean.

During the dark days that followed some thoughtful conversations were had. How much was lost? Can we come back from this? Who is to blame?! It was decided that they had come too far, given so much of their lives and had too much fun to back down now. So what of this war mentioned above? This is not a war of conventional violence but more a war of defiance.

The UCHG has dragged itself back from the brink. It is back bigger, better, faster and stronger. There is even talk of it being harder.

The new page design and sections are here for your enjoyment. The content will continue to come with videos, pics and posts. A chunk of UCHG goodness may have been lost forever, but so long as there is breath in their lungs, the madness will continue.

The UCHG lives on!
