As title... For the really old hangers-on, does anyone know the original launch date for HMW? Looking back through old files, I can only trace stuff back definitively as far as November 2003, but I joined in 2004 and Vir was already gone by then. I kinda feel like launch was 2001? Can anyone confirm?
Crazy to think that this little web game is approaching its 25th anniversary! And if it was late 2003, did the 20th anniversary seriously go past and I never noticed?
When did HMW launch?

A couple of days before I joined. I joined just to see what it was about (after observing the forums from afar because the dramas of the original store gave plenty of lulz)

Cool, thanks Burn!
So a bit later than I thought (25th not 'til 2028) and I'm bummed that the 20th passed unremarked.

I played in 2003, now the game brought me back 21 years later. Wish I had access to my original account but apparently I lost my info so I'll start over.
Decepticons, I have returned.
