I never wanted to come back to the Gothador forum like this, but I wanted to share the sad news that our friend (and many, many others') Andy died last night in a car accident. Gothador knew him as Andor, and he was the funniest and greatest guy I ever knew here. He taught me the ropes and tricks-of-the-trade, asked me to be a part of the greatest group of people I've ever known online, and gave me some of the happiest moments the internet could ever hope to offer.
Some of you hopefully may remember his birthday party in 2006...I forget who opened the doors, but I remember Mange played the greatest disco set on the radio and my hangover lasted for a few days. Here's a screenshot I've always hung onto (but a .gif would serve it much better)...
and because I'm feeling really sentimental coming back here, a picture of his old avatar...I hope his character is still floating around out there somewhere...
I'm really going to miss him....because of Andy, Gothador will always have a much warmer, fuzzier place in my heart.

Many times I have told people about Gothador and this Disco realm and I sooo remember this party for Andy's Bday.. It was about the best online expirence I've ever had with friends.. This was also the first radio show I did where the DJ server was maxed out.. Just an example of how many friends Andy had, how well liked he was. Andy was more than just a culti of ours, JadedHope and I used to talk to him on the phone all the time, he had become a real friend.. He will be truely missed, but never forgotten by those who had the pleasure and honor of knowing him.
